“Best meatballs ever! They treated us like royalty there too. Not surprised because Tim has always been a good dude! The one pound burger is insane, and the huge portions will take care of us for the next few days. Not kidding!🍴YUM 🇮🇹“

“The stuffed banana peppers are the best ! Perfectly made with sweet sausage cheese and their homemade sauce. I love that place!!“

“Impossible to get an order in by the phone they suck !! Have been trying on many occasions for over an hour they deserve to go out of business!“

“It was so busy when we got there. The man helping park cars told us we might not get in without reservations, but he said to try anyway - he was so friendly. We went in and everyone inside was so welcoming and smiling- even though they were extremely busy. They gave us a little table by the fire place which we both ended up really liking. The waitress was so sweet! The food was AMAZING!! The best chicken parm ever- and my hubby orders it everywhere we go!!! If you haven't been here- you're missing out!“

“Absolutely worth the trip. Excellent Food & Service. Thank you“

“Friends and I enjoyed dinner at Tillie's last night and it was a great evening. Of course, the company was great but the food was also great. And, our server was a joy. She was pleasant, attentive and did a good job. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for great food and excellent service. Thanks!!!“

“I do not even know where to start! From the server(Dominic) who was friendly, always right there and check on our table periodically making sure we always had what we needed! the drinks, the food, the dessert, everything was a 10/10. The sauce was the best I ever had. This place is a must! It is beautiful, clean, and welcoming inside with a sense of family and friends. The host was lovely, and friendly. You can tell the owner cherishes this place,he was hands on the entire time I was there.“

“We ordered the Christmas Dinner for 4-6 people , in an effort to make the holidays a little bit easier. Picked up the food Christmas Eve, everything was very organized and smooth. Items were all boxed up nicely, and reheat instructions on the box! The menu and food were incredible, and everything reheated fresh and tasty! I will 100% order again next year, as it was nice to be able to sit with my family and enjoy the holiday instead of spend it all in the kitchen! Best part was easy clean up!“

“Meat ravioli are hard to find, even in Italian restaurants. Anthony’s are amazing are and I’m so glad I ordered them!“

“This was our first time coming here and my family was pleasantly surprised! Our server was nice and everyone’s food was really good! It was fresh and homemade and we will definitely make a trip back coming from Somerset County.“

“Originally went elsewhere to eat and the service was so bad, we walked out. End up at Olive Garden. So glad we did. Our server, Beth, was amazing. She was so attentive, was able to multitask, very pleasant! The food was delicious. It is out of our way to go there but I will be returning for sure. If you go to Rt 51 location, ask for Beth!!“

“I’d like to give a big shout out to Tracey. We’ve been sick in this house and once coming back to life we wanted la eda’s. So I went to pick it up. On way home I got a call. My salad wasn’t in my order. Yep before I was even home ❤️. I went back and she brought out to me with a giant smile 😊. Thanks for bringing us back to life with the best food 💯❤️“

“this has become my wife and I's favorite Italian restaurant in the South Hills. portions are huge. Food is absolutely delicious. Quick warning though if you order the stuffed hot peppers they will be HOT. They're absolutely delicious though!“

“We have been dining here for 35 years! Sadly, Les and Pauline have passed, but Edmund is continuing the excellence. Just visited for our daughter's birthday and it was perfect. The crab hoelzel and mafalda are delicious appetizers. Chicken parm is unique and yummy,ditto for the lobster Romano. We often disappointed with pricy meals, but never here. It is old school, so not for everyone, but we love it.“

“We came here for dinner on a Friday night in August. We were traveling and checked the map for something that was close and looked good. The menu looked good and I liked the name because I have seen the Godfather a bunch of times but I was a little hesitant at first because it was in a strip mall.

We sat at the bar and were immediately greeted by a bartender who gave us menus and took our drink order. She gave a little time to decide on meals and then out that order in for us. We ordered the calamari to share and we wanted to split the shrimp scampi as well. There weren’t too many people on the bar side. I couldn’t see the dining room area. There are couple Godfather posters which was cool.

The food came out shortly after ordering and the kitchen was able to split the pasta for us which we appreciated because we know how messy it can get at the bar when we try to do that ourselves with pasta. We were grateful they could do that - some places won’t. The calamari was very good. They pasta was good. I wish it would have had a little bit of lemon in it to make the garlic more pronounced but that’s just my preference.

The bartender was friendly and attentive. She seemed to have good rapport with the other customers who maybe were regulars. The atmosphere was relaxed and casual.

They have a lottery machine. We weee hoping to get a winning powerball ticket that night but the machine was offline. Oh well.

Prices were comparable to other similar places we go at home. Parking was easy - since it’s in the strip mall it shares a big lot with surrounding businesses.

Overall we had a good time.“

“I came up from NC to visit my daughter. The Steel Plate has wonderful food and top tier customer service!!! We will be back.“

“Delicious, accommodating to a large group, and yummy!“

“Been going to pasta too well over 20 years everything is about perfection !!! Definitely the one and only Definitely !!! I had rigatoni and hot sausage amazing my wife had cheese raviolis she totally loved she hasn't been there in a while. The dipping oil and bread omg the best. We took home a pizza a a Italian hoagie in a class by themselves Definitely a must portions are amazing too very reasonable too !!!!“

“Last month we tried GLADS Deli for the first time. We were definitely GLAD we stopped in for the pickle sandwiches! The meat and cheese were fresh and delicious. If you love pickles, don’t want the bread or want to try something different please try the pickle sandwich, but definitely at GLADS! The staff was excellent and happy to make a pickle sandwich they haven’t made so far! The owner was very friendly and made sure we were happy with our order. I had to take a bite before I left the deli!“

“Try the Chicken parm family meal deal .. you won't be disappointed!!“

“I called IVP to order pizza for a school sports team event occurring on a Monday. I didn’t realize they are typically closed on Monday, but the person I spoke with was so pleasant and helpful and took our order anyway. They said they are usually there on Mondays to make dough, so they were happy to help us out with the pizzas we needed. Everything was perfect and ready exactly when we asked for it. I have always had great service and great quality food every time I have order from them.“

“How can I say no to a Haunted Pizza shop? Turns out I can't. It's cozy and cute (Beavis and Butthead as Freddie and Jason - *snort*) and the pizza was really good. Crust was wonderfully crispy, the meatballs on the pizza were wonderful and the buffalo wings were delicious!“

“Best food best prices“

“Absolutely delicious homemade food, great little ma & pa diner the employees are so sweet and inviting. We’ll definitely be back. Also the owner was there and she’s so pleasant to talk to hear the history of her little diner. Thank you very much for this great experience 🙏“

“Come on it's Luciano's!! This place is legendary for all things Italian American. Pizza is great! Pasta is great! You can't go wrong with anything on the menu. The only downside is that it gets a little crowded, but if it wasn't so good it wouldn't be so crowded. Definitely worth the wait and braving a crowd.“

“It’s always crowded
I just moved back to BP
This is my 1st time at Al’s cafe
That’s a knife and fork burger
3rd time that has happened
And the bun was not toasted that needs fixed for all the burgers
And if i can make a suggestion
Add venison to the menu
It’s a log cabin style restaurant when you walk in
Pennsylvania has a deer problem so during hunting season add venison to the menu
The menu is off the charts there’s a lot to choose from
We have a lot of hunters in south western Pa so a game menu would be good
A rabbit rattlesnake appetizer would be great
Keep the REESE'S desert on the menu“

“My wife and I had dinner here for the first time. We got ribs, crab crakes, carrots, and crème brûlée and it was all fantastic. Highly recommend for a special occasion or family dinner.“

“This was my second time having Primo’s. My first time was at the location in the strip district. I received the same great customer service here as I did there. food tasted good and fresh. My only complaint is that the sesame bread was burnt on our sandwiches.“

“The service was fantastic! She was friendly, efficient, and patient with our table. I guess we picked the wrong day for a big group. It was their wing night. It was very busy. They had us sitting in front of the fireplace, which was very hot, and we were really crammed at our table. The appetizers were delicious, but my main course was a bit bland. I had the fettuccine with vodka sauce. It tasted much better as a leftover with garlic powder and parmesan cheese over it.“

“I have been ordering from Mama's since I moved back here after being out of this area for 25+ years. 'Hats off to all of the staff' Great food, service & smiles 'always'. You guys are doing a fantastic service/job. 'Very high recommendations' (Delishios food, no matter what you order)!!!!“

“I had your competitor’s pizza Caliente’s wasn’t as good as this! I really like it! And delivery man was nice too! I won’t order any pizza in future only Olive Oil’s believe Me !👍🏼“

“I absolutely recommend Fellini’s! DoorDash mixed up the orders between two customers and gave my family the wrong one. Tom, the GM, took care of everything for both us and the other customer. He was awesome and handled the issue right away! We couldn’t have asked for a better customer service experience working directly with Fellini’s! We will continue to order from Fellinis for our pizza & hoagies.“
