50 Best Italian Restaurants near South Park

“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.“

“A group of 5 of us visited Dish last night and the meals were amazing. Grilled Squid, the best I have ever had. Where else can you find it not breaded and fried? Add to that their amazing sardines so fresh and good. Pasta Funghi another high. Exquisite detail to taste in every dish. The owners go way out of their way to make you feel welcomed and happy and very satisfied. A must visit when you are lucky enough to get a reservation though other friends have happily sat at the bar for dinner just to be there!! Kudos to Dish!“

“Amazing food and a great atmosphere. We enjoyed live music and a tremendous dinner. Would recommend Asti’s to anyone. The owner is awesome!“

“we were there last Thursday to celebrate my birthday and also my bfs as they are on the same day. we heard nothing but good things. Pasta was cold, filet not prepared correctly then given back to me burnt on the outside and raw on the inside. We were so very disappointed. $200 wasted and I walked away hungry. Really don't think we would ever try again. On to another top restaurant in the city.“

“The 5 stars rating say it all. I ate there the first year Chef Greg opened the door to the public. I've dined there from its earliest days until now. Pastas, meatballs and sauces are outstanding. I only wish they would bring back the Panna Cotta. The menu is limited but that's how the quality is maintained, this is not Pasta Too.“

“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.“

“I am so glad my husband and I found Yoli's. We went there for the 2nd time tonight and every single thing we got was phenomenal just like the 1st time! From their salads, to the bread and oil, to their Yoli Rolis, to the stuffed shells, to the Grandma Bevy, the food is just unbelievable. I got the crab cake tonight and I have to say, it was one of the best I've ever had, and I've had them in Maryland! We got the canookie for dessert and it was bigger than our heads but unbelievably amazing. Plus everything is SUPER reasonably priced! On top of everything else, the staff is extremely friendly! This is definitely our go-to restaurant from here on out. I can't wait for many more dinners at Yoli's!“

“Best restaurants I ever eat we are customer's over 28 years“

“Made reservations; had to wait a bit to be noticed at entrance. Not very busy on a Tuesday evening. Would go back for delicious food, but waitress rushed us at every course. Zucchini app was served fast. Wine cork fee $5. Dinner salad was very small, but dinners; veal Marsala & chicken piccata was generous & delicious. Seemed there was a staffing shortage, waitress was catering to party of 12 celebrating a bday. Had to practically beg for a dessert & coffee. I asked for a coffee refill; waitress replied do you want to wait on a new pot as she took my cup & saucer from me. for @ 20 patrons in restaurant it was noisy. Family atmosphere with white table clothed tables. Good parking. Would go back for food, hoping not getting same rude waitress.“

“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!“

“Came here when I was on a trip from out of town. The woman on the phone was extremely pleasant, which was very refreshing considering how most to-go places are nowadays. Customer service is truly top notch.

What was even more surprising was how truly delicious every part of our meals were. My wife and I were shocked by the massive portion sizes and the high quality of the food. Everything was amazing.

I will be dreaming about the next time we can come out again, and we won’t be looking for food anywhere else.“

“Everything was great, food and atmosphere. But what really made the experience great was our waitress Samantha! It was a busy Saturday evening and she was on top of it. Great recommendations, personality and very prompt. Servers like her are what makes it worth coming out to eat.“

“Our new favorite restaurant to visit in Pittsburgh! Everything we’ve tried has been delicious, but the fried zucchini…. to die for!👌 *chef’s kiss*“

“This is a great addition to the Southside. We had a delicious dinner - meatballs, burrata, pizza, and tiramisu - and the service was absolutely amazing. Jamie was one of the best servers we’ve ever had. We will be back!“

“I had dinner there tonight. Server was Mo, she was welcoming and friendly, also had great recommendations as it was my first time there. Food was great, I really liked the duck. Would recommend for sure, and will be back soon.“

“I sent my friends to this place with my warmest recommendations. I visit this restaurant often. This recommendation is always successful. The dishes they serve are great and the crew is very friendly and cooperative. always when we eat in this place we have a pleasing time. I warmly recommend this restaurant.“

“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.“

“No flowery words needed. It's a bar where people actually TALK to one another. Conversation. No constant texting. This place is a gem for humans who want to relate and connect. The bar is Eden to the nth degree.. I'm not a foodie. Although the cuisine here is beyond delicious. But the attraction? It's the forgotten joy of human contact. Don't miss happy hour.“

“Wow what an experience! Upon arriving to this location for the first time I was instantly met with the doors being opened as my wife and I carried our little one inside with their carseat because we take Uber. I was offered a holder right out the jump for the carset which in my many times dining in at a Olive Garden I have not even heard of until today. We were quickly seated with the proper amount of utensils as well as menus for both the wife and I as well as a kids menu for our 3 yo. During our visit our server Cameron greed us with a warm smile. Didn't just do his job duties but went above and beyond. He as well as the kitchen crew got us our breadsticks as well as appetizers within 2-3 minutes of requesting them. Both sauces that was requested was prompty placed at our table. Cameron was at our table 2-3 minutes after being seated and offered to start us off with drinks. Luckly because the wife and I get the same meal when we go to Olive Garden we already had a broad idea of what we were going to order. Cameron took our order with absolute professionalism and personality. Was back at our table and offered refills on our drinks as well as endless breadsticks before we even requested them. I HIGHLY congradulate this server for being top notch. Personality was vivid, not bland. ALWAYS had a smile when coming over to our table to ask how our meal was, if we needed anything additonal. Quickly took unused plates or used but no longer being used plates away to clear off our table. Speaking of clearing off our table. When my family had finished our meal, we requested leftover trays to take home what was left, in which once again Cameron delivered trays fast! Provided up the famous mint chocolates and THANKED us for coming to eat at their establishment. HANDS DOWN the chef in the kitchen made the food amazingly! Food was hot, not cold. Food was FRESH not stale. The table was CLEAN no mess on it when seated, no food debris under the table or chairs. Plates as well as forks didn't have leftover food from prior customers. Bathrooms were not nasty, didn't stink. Trash was also very well maintained. After a stressful day, finishing it off with the Greentree Olive Garden was the perfect end to the day and an amazing last meal of the day. I'm not one to often leave positive reviews, however I felt that the service that Cameron had provided to us was ABOVE excellence! Would come back again to this specific location for the server and staff alone. Thank you Greentree Olive Garden for making our Saturday evening special! :)“

Reheating instructions were included and everything was nicely packaged. The food was absolutely delicious!! The turkey was fall off the bone moist and tender. I highly recommend this Thanksgiving meal and look forward to purchasing again next year!!!“

“Such a nice quiet hospitable place to dine in. Food was top tier!! I will be returning with friends!“

“The decor could use a freshen up. That having been said; we went with our children's godmother. She is 1st generation, both her parents from Italy and she LOVED IT. Which is very high prise indeed. Protions are huge, desserts are huge. I have been here twice and had a great time and good food both times.“

“Visited this morning for the first time. Got egg and cheese sandwiches, one croissant one ciabatta - both were amazing!! The lattes were delicious and rich. You can really taste the quality of the espresso. They were short staffed (1 employee who was grinding hard!) so I did wait about 25 minutes for two coffees and sandwiches. I didn’t mind that much and it was well worth the wait. Can’t wait to go back!“

“Delicious food, good service! The dessert is fantastic! Wonder if it’s made in house?“

“Amazing, tasty sauce and LOVE all the cheese! Always friendly service! Pizza stays hot and fresh, I live an hour away and it's just the right temperature to eat when I get home. They also use the best pepperoni!“

“I booked their banquet room for a combo birthday party for my daughter and husband and everything was great!!! They let us show up hours early to decorate and the food was amazing. The best part was our server/bartender though. She was so busy taking care of the whole party and never once looked overwhelmed or flustered. She made the party so much easier on me and let me focus on my daughter and family and friends. Thanks Moonlite!“

“I Actually stumbled upon this place accident. It was the day before Christmas Eve And the only place That was open within A 40 minute drive. The owner was concerned about making my pizza fresh, even though I had to be his last Customer of the night.
I’m a small girl, but there were only two slices left of that medium pepperoni pizza by the time I got home. Perfect, thin crunchy crust And their sauce had a slight kick to it, but I wouldn’t consider it spicy Or too hot. I don’t know, but it was really good and I’ve been thinking about it for Days.“

“Anna and her staff were exceptional . The night before sister’s wedding there had been an accident to the front of the building. All was cleaned and ready for a great night. Staff, food and venue were excellent and I would recommend highly to anyone in need of a venue.“

“We sat on the outdoor covered patio on a perfect day. It was great! Thin crust pizza was very good and not greasy crust! We had sausage and zucchini pizza. It was excellent. Sauce is a little spicy but delicious! Debbie our server was so nice and helpful!“
