50 Best Italian Restaurants near Upper Saint Clair

“100% amazing food and service!! Highly recommend the tomato basil salmon and the fried chicken sandwich!! Paul and Co are doing a tremendous job!!!! If you have not gone yet you are missing out!“

“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!“

“Great food and service! Our server was friendly and the food came out fast & very hot!“

“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.“

“Great restaurant. Amazing full American Italian experience. Super staff!“

“I went there for the first time with a couple of friends, the wonderful staff explained everything and they were so nice and laid back! Awesome food, great variety such a win!!“

“I came here with my dad and got the chicken piccata, which was delicious! It was served with assorted vegetables which I actually liked versus the pasta. We will be back!“

“We dined at LeoGreta’s last evening. What a great culinary experience! It was everything I thought it would be. Having returned from Rome and Naples last Fall, my wife and family members enjoyed a truly authentic Italian cuisine. Teri, our server, was outstanding. The service and pace of dishes to our table was spot on. We also enjoyed a delicious Barbera with our carbonara, manicotti and pollo parmigiana. If that wasn’t enough, they have a top-shelf Italian pastry shoppe attached to the restaurant, so we indulged and took home cannoli, tiramisu and biscotti! If you are seeking a beautiful venue to enjoy the best Italian food in the Pittsburgh region, then head to Leogreta, just off exit 65 from route 376! Michael Bellavia & Family“

“Visited for our first time tonight. We’ve been talking about going here for at least a year and never stopped in. Boy were we missing out. The food is excellent. Big portions if that’s what you’re looking for. One portion can feed two. And the cream puff is amazing! It fed four of us. Don’t sleep on this restaurant like we did“

“First time visiting, but it was a lovey spot. We really liked the atmosphere in here. Very open and lively enough when filled. Cool that the kitchen is open and you can see the chefs at work. Felt like the menu was well priced and we enjoyed everything we had. And love that the pasta is made in-house, you can tell!!“

“Amazing service. The restaurant is always nice and clean. The staff is really friendly. Love this place. My favorite place to get food from in the south hills. My favorite thing to get is the carbonara pasta and chefs favorite wrap. They are both delicious“

“Great food and cocktails! Cauliflower dip is amazing!“

“Arleo's Pizza is AMAZING. Their pizza is to die for!! And I'm a bit of a pizza snob lol. The staff is on-task, on-time, friendly and funny! And the prices are quite reasonable. 10/10 I would reccomend.“

“We order takeout from Armstrongs Express quite often and it’s always consistently good! My husband loves their wings. We’ve tried a lot of items on the menu and are always satisfied and full. The staff is so friendly and kind!! I also love that they have a few parking spots reserved for takeout costumers since that parking lot can get busy. Only downside is that they are closed on Sundays when we often want to order takeout“

“Loved Bar Marco! Hidden in the strip district, Bar Marco did not disappoint. We had the foccacia bread with oil for an appetizer which was amazing. All 3 of us did the 2 course menu for $45. We had bluefin tuna crudo, kale Caesar salad, rigatoni, and ricotta gnudi. We also tried all 3 desserts, the caramel one was my favorite. Our server was wonderful, food was great. We had some wine and cocktails as well- nothing that we didn’t like! As an added bonus, gratuity is already included in the bill so you don’t have to worry about tipping. 100% recommend and I want to go back now for the wine cave!“

And will be returning soon.

Dietary restrictions: I'm gluten free and the mushroom sauce over with rotoni was fantastic....“

“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.“

“What a great find coming home from my son’s soccers game. The food was good. Our waitress was amazing. Reminded us of my aunt ninna. Just as nice as she was. We ordered too much but loved everything. Definitely have lunch for tomorrow.“

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

“We go to Olive Garden every year for my daughter's birthday. We have been going for probably 10 years. This year was her 16th and we went to a different one then we usually do because we were spending the weekend in Pittsburgh. We are never disappointed by Olive Garden. Our server Dmetri (sorry if I spelled that wrong) was amazing! He really made our day. He was very attentive and kept checking on us. He is a great server!“

“I was excited to try their pasta dishes but unfortunately they use beef and chicken stock in all of their red sauces, and I have a beef allergy. The waitress was wonderful and helped me order something safe (it was an off menu item) that was good. The tables are a little tight if you need a stroller. The spumoni ice cream was delicious!! Definitely recommend the ice cream.

Dietary restrictions: All red sauces have beef and chicken stock in them.“

“We dined in. The wine ,the food, Shrimp Scampi, and the ambience of the Olive Garden in Pleasant Hills was amazing. They were short handed and crowded, but the service and demeanor of the staff was outstanding. I’d highly recommend this restaurant. My date and I were there for 3 hours and we enjoyed every minute!!!?“

“Just ate there. Didn’t seem like anything was actually homemade. Not good. 1 from our group is now sick. And the hostesses were too wrapped up in their conversation with each other to wish us a good night or thank us for coming. First and last time to ever visit here.“

“Celebration of my sons graduation. The service was excellent the waitresses continued to check with us if everything was OK or if anything else was needed. The food was very good. The manager checked in several times to see if everything was satisfactory. We were totally happy with our experience at the Bethel Park location.“

“Great Italian home cooked food. Delicious and very friendly staff!!! Love this restaurant!!!! Breakfast and lunch.“

“This place has an impeccable 80s Italian restaurant vibe and the food is a delight! OMG do try the famous breadsticks. They are like a deep fried mini calzone of deliciousness. The zucchini is game changing! Little ribbons of crispy yumm that even crisps up nicely in the air fryer the day after. We’ve never had a bad meal here. You won’t be disappointed and the servers are attentive and friendly. Love this place!“

“Best Italian meal I’ve had since my Italian mom and grandma’s food. From the sauces to the pasta and the potato balls are outstanding. I will patronize again and highly recommend.“

“Our favorite restaurant in Pittsburgh!“

“We love Little Nippers - it's been our go-to pizza place for years. Outstanding people and service, and the pizza is always fresh and delicious. The wings can be really great too. Highly recommend this place, especially if you can order as take out and pick it up when it's all fresh out of the oven (try ordering directly from the website or the Slice app). It's awesome to have such a great pizza place in the neighborhood!“

“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.“
