“Authentic Italian dishes So delicious and kind service“

“Was visiting with our son and headed here for lunch today. Did not disappoint. Service was excellent, food was excellent, very simple salad but delicious. Extremely pleasant, friendly staff- fairly certain they were the owners. Had leftovers to bring home for later. Looking forward to our next meal to to see what is new on the menu. I had the basil gnocchi.“

“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.“

“Delicious food, great service & an overall great experience !!! Our server Elizabeth was great!“

I highly recommend the Verona Village Inn.“

“This place has NEW GEM on menu every visit... Last nite at Bar 🍸i was surrounded by patrons enjoying EGGPLANT MEATBALLS w a Ricotta drizzle on each. Didn't know they Existed BUT they didn't exist long in front of me. Getting another order today & will post pic.“

“Exceptional first experience at Fish nor Fowl! Every morsel was full of flavor. We started with the chickory salad on the feature menu which was crispy and lightly dressed. The steak tartar was served in a bone with lightly toasted focaccia. Our entrees were both equally delicious. We missed the opportunity to enjoy the homemade pastas so there will need to be a return visit! The menu is at the top end our dining budget but the quality is there so recommend for special occasions.“

Keep up the energy night crew! See you next week ??“

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!!“

“Yolis Italian cuisine is amazing, always a pleaser, can't choose wrong on the menu! Catering is delicious, custom charcuterie boards available for purchase. Sit down n dine, or belly up to the bar. Priced right, beers cold! Come see Logan on Monday n Tuesday afternoon, she don't smile much, but lights up the room when she does! Enjoy!“

“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.“

“Great food! Never walk out disappointed.“

“Every ravioli is amazing - better than I’ve ever had anywhere! Avi is also a really great person. Highly recommend!“

“Best pizza in Pittsburgh, in my humble opinion. The service is always fantastic, and the pizza is second to none. It's a little on the expensive side, but very well worth it. Worth a try if you're in the Oakland/North Oakland area and want a very competent, traditional pizza. The other dishes are less enjoyable, though.“

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

“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.“

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

“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.“

“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!“

“IWasn't overly l impressed. Ate lunch here today after my mom's sigleftnificant other (Joe) passed away. I have to say I was pretty hungry by the time we the cemetery, and I was almost excited to see Chicken Romano on the buffet. It wasn't terrible, but the chicken tasted like very low quality meat. I was not the only one tobacco that“

“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 !“

“My lady is taking time for her. Please stop in before it’s too late. Love her and the food she makes and bakes. Found this place living at children’s hospital, everyday I just wanted to leave and go here. Never knew what the menu would be like you would just have to go and see for yourself. Something new always. My husband swears they have the best wedding soup hands down. Im completely obsessed with the carrot cake and I will never be able to go or get it anywhere else. Best carrot cake ever! The staff and owner are super friendly and very easy to talk to. Need a laugh they chuckle and make the day a little brighter. I wish this place was a little closer to home we have Maria’s dinner every other night. We will definitely be back and can’t thank you all enough for everything the last few weeks. Sam & Day.“

“my husband and I went to the pleasure bar today for dinner the food was excellent our waitress Jill was perfect could not have been nicer thank you for a great food and great service“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Ladles is a great spot in Springdale! The home-style cooking tastes just like a comforting meal at home, and the portions are generous. The staff couldn’t be friendlier—welcoming from the moment you walk in. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area!“

“Stellar Italian street cuisine. Love the diavolo sauce and probably the best meatballs I’ve had. Many more dinners await 🤤“
