“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!“

“First time dining at Senti. Not a big menu to choose from, but what you do get is quality. The apps were very good to start the evening and the dinners were excellent. Nice portions and very tasty. Drinks are very good and paired nicely with dinner. We will definitely be back.“

“The Market in Verona is so awesome. It is so great to go in and get good quality food that you can reheat at home. I recently got the Eggplant Parmesan, pasta and risotto balls. Everything was so delicious and enough for another dinner. My husband got the Chicken Parmesan and really enjoyed it also. The service at the Market is outstanding and it was so nice to also meet Andrew the owner. I am looking forward to coming back again and getting more of this high quality and delicious Italian Food that reminded me so much of what my Mommy used to make. I highly recommend them.“

“Delicious and authentic cuisine cooked by a great chef with a superb staff. We will return!“

“My first visit to this restaurant and it was an amazing cxperience. The pizza was perfect, not too much cheese, not too much sauce, perfect crust, thin and crisp. Even the wine, made onsite was far superior to what is served in most restaurants. Presentation was first class.“

“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 and again, it was outstanding. For a nice evening out, give them a try.“

“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.“

“We have been going to Piccolo Forno for years. It is my favorite restaurant. The staff is outstanding. The food is creative and menu items are changed regularly to make use of seasonal ingredients. There are so many delicious choices on the menu that it is difficult to decide what to order. The food is reasonably priced and the corkage fee is less than most restaurants. This restaurant is a gem for anyone who loves delicious Italian food!“

“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!“

“Food was excellent and plentiful. Enough for dinner the next day. Service was outstanding our reservation was for 5:30 and we were seated by 5:10. Our waitress Angela B was fantastic. Her service was a 10+. Would definitely go back and highly recommend it…“

“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.“

“We recently held my parents 50th wedding anniversary party there and it was wonderful! Everyone I dealt with, from the event coordinator, kitchen staff, and wait staff, were incredibly kind and went above and beyond to make our event a special one. I would definitely recommend Rene’s in the future.“

“Delicious food & great service!!! Will be back soon!!!“

“Great family-owned business with amazing homemade food!“

“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.“

“We had a great experience at PGH EATZ today. We ordered ribs, loaded baked potato, and the homemade coleslaw, and everything was delicious! The ribs were very meaty and the Cole slaw tasted very fresh! The kids loved their chicken fingers and french fries too. The staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating, and we really enjoyed talking with them while we were there. Great food and great people, we’ll definitely be back! Highly recommend!“

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

“Excellent food and service at Fox Chapel location . My first time here busy Saturday crowd Gabby was a wonderful bar server actually excellent. I had Bruschetta salad which I highly recommend Over any other“

“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!“

“Great food! Never walk out disappointed.“

“Amazing! I finally made the burrata raviolis I ordered and there wasn’t one left over! So fresh and so delicious and they puffed up perfectly!“

“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.“

“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!“

“Excellent Italian restaurant. Visiting from out of town went for dinner on a Saturday evening with family. Everyone had an excellent meal. Hot fresh delicious. Salad with salmon was excellent, soup was delicious, pasta was some of the best we’ve ever had. Absolutely will be back. And the cakes! Delicious“

“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!“

“We really enjoyed our meal and service with Elle. I did however find it strange on a not busy week night the hostess sat everyone upstairs extremely close together. She even second guessed sitting a couple right beside our party yet still did it with the entire upstairs open, this makes sense if it’s busy. Would still return for the meal. We enjoyed the focaccia, chicken Parmesan, stuffed shelled and cocktails.“

“We love it here! Best prices in the area and most definitely the BEST bartenders EVERRRRRRR ❤️“

“Delicious mezza rigatoni in Neopolitan meat sauce“

“The chicken parm was very good. Love their sauce! Stuffed peppers were delicious & the wedding soup was good too. Great server B“

“Loved the staff, so friendly and helpful. And, to top it off, the pizza was Exceptional!! The flavors were wonderful, sausage, green olives and mushrooms (with pepperoni on part of it). The crust was perfect and the spices were sensational. We ordered the large for 3 people and ate every speck of it!

We are here from Wisconsin. Wish we could come back every month for a pizza.“

“Great service - Great food“

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

“KATIE MY ONE OF THEE BEST GRILLED CHICKEN SALADS I HAVE HAD IN A LOOOONNNNG TIME !!! DEFINITELY WILL RETURN !!! THANK YOU KATIE ! I just called and thanked you personally!“

“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.“

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

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

“Although the food, service and atmosphere were excellent, the prices have gone up. Before you could order a dinner that included soup or salad. However, now it is ala carte. We had veal parmigiana and there was very little sauce.“

“Ordered catering for a birthday party. The chicken parm was perfect. Very tasty and very tender. The spaghetti was done just right. Sauce was very good. The salad was fresh and crispy. The only problem was with my fav item………the breadsticks. I got the included 12 and ordered 6 more. Very excited for this since I really enjoy these tasty treats. All 18 were like they had been sitting around for a week. No one could eat them they were so stale! Truly a shame because it would have made the meal experience even better. Oh well life moves on.“

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

“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“

“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.“
