“Excellent food and service, have to plan ahead to dine inside due to the space limitations at peak dinner time. Atmosphere is relaxed, but at peak times/ they still offer excellent take out service . The meat balls are amazing!, both traditional and sicilian pizza were equally great. Can't wait to try a specialty pizza, and sandwich options which have a taste for everyone. A definite must try!“

“Pazzo"s on Lysle Blvd. It's easy going and has good music 4 all if you put your money in the jukebox, and as always great service by little Jenny the barmaid, but you better get 2 at a time because the locals keep her shopping and she's a good hopper, LMAO !“

“It's like being at your favorite dinner table with family and friends! With our beautiful Italian family gathering around the bar area in numbers of about 15 Friday night, we had a blast! Yes, Joe is our cousin and that is definitely warm and wonderful but Louise, Joe's matriarch, was there too which made it extra special. Lulu, chef, Delaney, "Ms. Brown", Linda and all staff were amazing and fun. So the food, sauteed arthichoke hearts, pasta fagioli, wedding soup, Chicken Romano, Veal Romano, beverage list unsurpassed and our usual standards and oh the red velvet cheesecake was picture and taste perfect. All food made to order fresh and it definitely shows the attention to every morsel we enjoyed. Oh, the bread is made locally and it's the best. We were almost the last to leave and we have all the photos to show our fun time. Can't wait to go back for their Sunday sauce. Salute and see you soon. Thank you for your "cordial" cordial to cap off the night. Highly recommend. There is nothing better than a cozy Italian restaurant that is one of a kind. Spring is here and the bocce court will be ready!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5 stars!! Great pizza 🍕“

“Went for lunch today, food as good as it always was, best meatball hoagie and fish sandwich ever! Our server Andreana was perfect!“

“The food here is TO DIE FOR!!! And the service is awesome“

“Had a wonderful experience today at Roman Bistro. The food was delicious and the service was excellent. Our waiter David was terrific. I chose the perfect restaurant for my birthday lunch.“

“Pros: the food is solid! I learned today that depending on who the chef is the calzone sizes are bigger. Not saying they’re not big already. They taste great. I accidentally got bacon pizza and pork calzone. I recommend mixing up the meats ?.

Cons: nothing I can think of at the moment. Lol. I got ID’d. I look 40. I know they wipe down their high chairs but they didn’t get to the one I pulled out.“

“Always fresh, always fire 🔥 well worth the price 👌“

“Best pizza and wings. Had a group of 14 friends there for eat-in and they all loved it.“

“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!“

“The food was excellent, atmosphere was great and the service as usual was outstanding. Tracey is a top notch waitress.“

“Everything is amazing The fresh baked Italian bread is to die for The soups, pizza, hoagie, ravioli all outstanding“

“Not my best visit here on this day it was busy only bar seating available. I was celebrating a promotion.The food is usually great, but Pasta was not fully cooked and got more veggies than shrimp. When at the bar you don't get those little chocolates to cut the garlic breath.“

“Had the beer battered fish today for lunch. It was so good ! It held up well for takeout. Was crispy and the bun was delicious too !“

“My friend and I sat outside while we could. Not a great view, but it was peaceful. The food was good, our server was very busy but we weren't neglected at all. Hey, someone made the food, it was served, we ate. Perfect day. P.S. excellent wedding soup.“

“Tried the soprano turkey - piled high with QUALITY turkey and the cheese was KILLER (I think it was a sharp provolone but not sure. Flavor of cheese was absolutely delicious.) pickles were perfect blend of sour/spice. Our server turned out to be the owner - super patient explaining all the choices & options. It’s a little on the pricey side but I don’t mind shelling out a little more for good quality. Also tried their macaroni salad (nice & creamy) and store brand chips (yum). Glad I joined the frequent flyer group - will definitely be going back again. Huge menu, lots of options. Good stuff.“

“We had such a great experience at DO Wood Fired in downtown Irwin! As a parent of a child with Celiac disease, finding restaurants that truly get gluten-free safety can be stressful but the team here went above and beyond. They were kind, knowledgeable, and took every precaution to make sure our gluten-free pizza was safe. It’s such a relief to find a place that not only offers gluten-free options but understands cross-contamination and takes it seriously. The pizza was delicious, the service was amazing, and we’re so grateful for the care they showed our family. We’ll definitely be back,thank you for making us feel so safe and welcome!“

“Quintessential pizzeria... not only is the staff fast and friendly inefficient they also go above and beyond with a little extras that mean the world to customers such as myself.

Guys if you're reading this to the staff of Bellisario's I wish there was a way to get you guys even more business not like you're hurting though because honestly your pizza is a Hidden Gem in West Mifflin particularly in Duquesne Shopping Center....yinz keep up the excellent work!

Wheelchair accessibility: It's on ground level and easily accessed and I guarantee if you have the phone number ahead of time which is on Google someone will open the door for you.“

“Where do I start? Everything was amazing from beginning to end. I had reservations at Tambellini‘s in Highland Park. But the owner decided they weren’t busy enough that evening so they called me an hour before and canceled on me. I scrambled to find somewhere for my 10-year-old daughter and I to go After her school dance. I called this place and they said “don’t worry about anything, come on in and we’ll take care of you.” We ended up chatting with some other customers and the staff. It was great. My daughter was all smiles the whole time. The dining room is super small and very intimate. Everybody’s friendly, the owner was great, and the chef was awesome. definitely put this place on your list of places to try. Support local!“

“Food is amazing and they are always friendly, and their delivery is always fast and efficient.“

“Noticed today this place popped up on Google and I hadn't seen them before. Saw they had a deep dish and took the plunge with a medium Sausage/Pep deep dish pizza.

The crust is perfect with a great taste; the sauce isn't too spicy or sweet and with plenty of garlic.

This is a tad pricier than other options, but well worth the couple dollars more.

Don't sleep on Calabrese' Pizzeria. They're new to the area and need some business. You won't be disappointed!“

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

“Food is mediocre, but the bartender Missy keeps us coming back!!!! She is attentive, friendly, and funny. You never have to wait for a drink if Missy is behind the bar.“

“Gosh. All this time the best pepper steak hogie was around the corner from me. Lol. Drive by this establishment all the time and never paid attention to what was there. Goggle "steak hogie near me" and this place popped up. I said " i got nothing to lose" and i was right. I dint loose anything instead i gained some happiness. Great prices. The half of hogie sized it basically the size of a whole hogie at most other steak houses. The bread, onions, and of course the steak is amazing. Ppl friendly, and the atmosphere reminds me of what life used to or what life should be lol. Idk i guess iam getting to deep for just a review lol. My opinion try house of Rudy's you wont be disappointed.“

“Great service, food and atmosphere !“

“First time ordering and I WILL be back! Gluten free pizza is the closest I've had to tasting normal, and the knots were also fire! I also came almost 20 minutes late for my order and the food was still hot 😍 I'd rate it 10 stars if I could. Fantastic 🤗. My roommate has a texture issue with food and he is pleasantly suprised. Way to go, guys! You found another customer for LIFE!“

“Great experience and amazing food every time. Does not disappoint!!! Thankful for a place to eat with consistently good food and great service.“

“This place is great! Marisa (the bar tender) and Tara (the waitress) are amazing!! We got pizza and a salad and meatballs and they were so attentive and everything came out quick and hot!! I appreciate them both for their professionalism!! Would highly recommend!!“
