“Great food and friendly staff!!“

“My son and I had dinner for Mother’s Day. Our first experience at this restaurant. Aside from a small miscommunication where the side dishes were delivered to the table alongside the apps, everything was very good. They corrected the sides and delivered fresh with the entrees, the sides were easily large enough to share amongst three or four people and the food was very good. The app, sides and entrees, as well as the gluten free chocolate cake were all delicious. I definitely recommend this restaurant and plan to return.“

“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.

“I have coming to this great Pizza and Italian restaurant since it was on Saltsburg rd. one thing I can say over the years is the Consistency has stayed the same, The food is excellent. If you want a good Italian meal its the place to go? Or on the go.“

“This joint has been around for decades, and good luck finding parking in the upper lots on most evenings (ample parking in the rear).

It recently came under new ownership.... but they didnt really change much. The food is still phenomenal, the atmosphere in the bar is very Pittsburgh area, and they've got live music too.

Stop by here, you won't be disappointed.“

“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 !“

“Great food! Never walk out disappointed.“

“Nice social club. Great food and great prices“

“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!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An Absolute GEM at the Latrobe Airport! ✈️🍝❤️ If you haven’t been to DeNunzio’s Restaurant at the Latrobe Airport, you are truly missing something special. From the moment you walk in, you’re wrapped in that warm, old-world Italian atmosphere — rich wood ceilings, glowing chandeliers, cozy bar seating — it feels like you’ve stepped into a place where memories are made and traditions matter. 🇮🇹✨ Manager Anthony DeNunzio couldn’t be more welcoming. Genuine, gracious, and hands-on — you can tell this isn’t just a restaurant, it’s family. And speaking of family, knowing Anthony just took his grandpa (in his 90s!) on a special outing says everything you need to know about the heart behind this place. That kind of love and respect carries into how they treat every guest. ❤️ And let’s talk about the staff! Sweetest bartender ever? That’s Terri! 🙌 She’s warm, attentive, and makes you feel like you’ve been coming there for years — even if it’s your first visit. Total sweetheart and absolute pro. Now the FOOD… WOW. The Seared Diver Scallops were perfection — beautifully cooked, tender, and bursting with flavor. 🐚🔥 And the Pasta Fagioli soup? Comfort in a bowl. Rich, hearty, authentic — the kind of soup that makes you close your eyes for a second after the first bite. 🍲 This is more than just a meal — it’s an experience. Quality family. Quality food. And most importantly… quality people. 👏 The DeNunzio family has created something truly special at the Latrobe airport. Whether you’re flying in, flying out, or just looking for an unforgettable dinner — go. You’ll be so glad you did. 💛🍷“

“We've been eating at Esta Esta for many years. The restaurant and bar are very inviting and the staff are friendly and welcoming. The food is excellent, especially the steaks, shrimp and appetizers. Drinks are fantastic and you can eat at a table or in the bar.“

“My husband and I have been going to the Village Inn for many years now. Everything we have eaten there has been so delicious from sandwiches to great Italian Food . My favorite is the stuffed crabmeat mushroom appetizer, bruschetta and Chicken Romano. The meatballs and pasta are so good. My favorite dessert is the Tiramisu. I highly recommend the Verona Village Inn.“

“Extensive/original menu with consistent quality food, appropriate portions and fair pricing, and Mary Kay is one of the best servers anywhere!“

“We dined there for the first time this week. We told our waitress, Katie, that we had never been and she went above and beyond to give us an amazing experience. Our drinks were constantly refilled and the appetizer hot pepper cheese balls were delicious. She recommended the cheese bread sticks (they were so good!) and we thought the pizza (pepperoni sausage mushrooms) was outstanding. Thank you Katie for being so attentive. We will definitely be back Shelly Pie!“

“Ordered Romano Crusted Chicken & Pappardelle with mushrooms, spinach with a white cream sauce and added Shrimp. It was delicious and it came with soup or salad and bread.“

“Today’s order was exceptional. It had been a minute since I ordered from here as usually my order was messed up etc. today I was craving one of their chicken salads so I decided to get that and a pizza for my kids. Both items were amazing and perfect! I understand this place is under new ownership. The manager/owner even brought the food to my car and chit chatted with me a bit. 10/10 customer service. This makes a big difference.“

“Had dinner at Sforno, had a Betty White pizza, Cluck Norris, bread sticks, meatballs, and Greek flatbread also brought home a piece of strawberry cake! So silky and delicious. Everything was awesome! The waitress was great and the owner made sure we had anything we needed! Will definitely be returning! Thank you for a great experience!“

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

“Wow! So much flavor. Perfect way to feed my family “home” cooking when I can’t. We tried several different entrees and every one was fantastic! We will definitely be doing this again!“

“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!“

“While we've only been there a few times, Lucci's has fast become my family's favorite go to restaurant. I recently had a relative come in from another country and they requested some home style Italian food. They have a huge menu with many different options that ensures that everyone will find something to their taste. Foods we ordered on this visit included chicken parmesan, arguably the best we'd ever eaten. We also had the chicken Romano which was also very good. We will usually only order chicken Romano if it comes with a lemon wine butter sauce, which this did not, but it was still very good. It was accompanied by a large side of penne pasta that had a pinky/orangy color sauce which I believe may have been a vodka sauce and it was delicious! The cheese ravioli included four gigantic square pillows filled with ricotta and served with a red tomato sauce which was very tasty. I ordered a cheese calzone which was cooked exactly as I ordered it and was a definite 5/5 stars. It was one of the best calzones I've ever eaten. Our party ordered both the deep dish pizza, which was excellent, and a small regular pizza which was also very good. We also ordered fried zucchini which was a big hit. I can honestly say the only food that our party of four didn't like was the wedding soup. We all agreed it was the only disappointment of our meal. We had the same waitress as the last time we dined there and while she is a very good waitress she is clearly over taxed with too many duties, in my opinion, to give a party of four or more the level of service they deserve. Both times we were there the waitress had to serve customers eating dinner in the dining room as well as those sitting at the bar along with the other usual bar and waitress duties like running orders back and forth to the kitchen and picking up food. I think they may benefit from the help of a bartender once the dinner crowd picks up which was around 5:00 P.M. on the days we were there. My calzone, while nearly perfect, was surprisingly cold inside which required the waitress to have to reheat it which took quite a bit of time. The restaurant and restrooms are nice and clean. There is ample seating and parking. The restaurant is wheelchair accessible and offers handicapped parking. We didn't have any small children with us but it appears they are accommodated and welcomed. Though it seems a bit pricey, it is comparable to most restaurants of it's kind and is definitely well worth it. The food portions were massive and we happily ate the leftovers for three days. I would recommend this restaurant for anyone looking for a great time and meal. Lucci's is a good choice and appropriate for families, dates and parties big and small. I'm so happy I finally gave Lucci's a try!“

“I enjoy the one in Penn Hills there pizza is the best around Penn Hills it can’t be beat“

“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!“

“My family has been eating here for 40 years. Best pizza in Western PA.“

“Visited Olive Garden (260 Mall Blvd, Monroeville, PA) on Veterans Day 11/11/2025, and the experience was absolutely perfect. Olive Garden offered a complimentary meal from a special veterans menu, and I truly appreciated the gesture.

Service from Bailey M was excellent and friendly. My guest ordered the Tour of Italy ($22.49) and I had Spaghetti with Marinara and 3 Meatballs ($16.78), both served hot, fresh, and delicious. The famous salad and breadsticks were just as great as always.

Thank you to the management and staff for honoring veterans and making our visit memorable. Highly recommended!“

“As always, Persichetti's is amazing. They consistently provide a cozy, family friendly atmosphere and delicious food. I cannot stress enough how amazing the Gingerbread Man seasonal cocktail is. Such a cute presentation and so yummy!“

“Got subs for my wife and myself and we both were amazed. Great value and fantastic flavor. We will be back for sure.“

“We just had a great meal at mama meatballs pizzeria. The owner and his family were great and the pie is a contender for the best pizza in the east Pittsburgh area. Everything but the salad was homemade.“

“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.“

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

“Great pizza, friendly and fast service.“

“I heard about this place on 100.7 star radio station for their Best Pizza in the Burgh pizza contest. They brought their Gluten Free pizza! So the next day Saturday Feb 7th, we drove from Hopewell twp, Beaver County...1 hour away to try their gluten free pizza. Let me tell you all who read this...it was, by far, THE BEST GLUTEN FREE pizza EVER!! We bought a whole pizza to eat there and bought one to take home AND 2 g.f. bread dough balls. This gluten free pizza is THE BOMB!!!! We need a pizza shop like this out here in Beaver County!!!! The staff was super nice and accommodating! I only wish this place was closer to us cuz we'd be ordering from there every week! Kudos to the owner and his mother who came up with the amazing g.f. pizza dough, its a WINNER!!!“

“Best food best prices“

“very good food. big quantity for the price. nice staff. will be back.“

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

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

“We’ve been to the Murrysville location a number of times now and most recently ordered a deluxe sandwich tray. The owner and staff have been so friendly, every time making sure we had what we needed. For our recent catering order, the owner explained the labels, walked me through all the toppings that are included, and why she gave me the mayo and vinegar on the side, etc. Everyone at our party raved about the hoagies from the tray and asked where we got them. The quality of the bread, meats and toppings are all exceptional and very unique - and the variety of hoagies is so extensive it’s hard to believe. My personal favorite is Nonna’s Veggie - it’s eggplant with roasted peppers, broccoli rabe and sharp provolone. I’m so happy to have another great business like this in Murrysville and I wish the owner nothing but success. Give this place a try!“

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

“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.“
