Ranucci's Reviews
First time dining at Ranucci's and it will not be the last. We were greeted by the owner upon arriving. Very friendly and very inviting. Our waiter was also very friendly and ver attentive. The food portions were very big and absolutely delicious. We started with a beet salad and it was so good. I had the CC's veal with crab cakes and my friend had the Sunday gravy. Both dishes were delicious and the red sauce on the Sunday gravy was out of this world. We had a tiramisu for dessert...read full review
The food is delicious, portions are perfect. The atmosphere is lovely. Our waitress made us feel special. The chef came out from the kitchen, introduced himself and that really was cool. I understand that that is not always possible, but we can’t wait to go back.
My favorite Italian spot! Need to try in Pittsburgh !!!
