We came for dinner one night while we were in the area visiting. We had a reservation and were…read moreseated quickly at a table next to the bar. I really enjoy that the pasta is fresh and the menu isn't 40 pages long. It's straight to the point and you know what you're getting based on what is listed under the pasta shape. My short rib ricotta gnocchi was good but I do wish it had a bit more salt to bring more of the flavor to the front. The gnocchi texture was perfect and pillowy. The short rib mixed in nicely with all of the pasta and the sauce. My spouse enjoyed the cannelloni, which was pretty much their lasagna but also wanted a bit more salt. Our server was very nice and walked us through the menu options as well as told us about the seafood special for the night. The bread came out first and was delicious. The salad was also good and I don't usually like arugula. You could tell the ingredients were fresh and I enjoy that they take the time to do that. The space is very cute and you can't really miss it even with it being in an executive building. It's a smaller area but it can seat a good amount of people. We noticed they had a pasta making class so maybe next time we're in town, we can do it. The red sangria had a great balance where it wasn't too sweet. We didn't do dessert but we did enjoy the digestif at the end with limoncello and my spouse ate the amaretti cookies as I couldn't.

They deliver a truly unique Italian dining experience centered around homemade pasta and…read morethoughtfully crafted sauces. Everything is made from scratch, from the noodles to the sauce. The pasta shapes are unlike anything else you'll find in Western PA. They even offer complimentary limoncello and Amaretti cookies to end your meal, which is a really nice touch. They have family style options for groups who want to try a variety of dishes, but the menu is just as fitting for a date night. Bonus: the leftovers taste just as good the next day! The space can get a bit loud with high ceilings and a full house, but the lively energy reflects how much people are enjoying the experience. Service was friendly and helpful with suggestions. The owner even stopped by tables to check on guests. It's tucked inside an industrial park and may be a little tricky to find if you're unfamiliar with the area, but GPS and signage get you there without much trouble. Definitely worth the visit!

On 3-21-26 first time experience. I really enjoyed the pizza. It was filling and the cheese was…read moregood. Would go again. Down side: There was burnt pieces of cheese which was probably left in the oven on my pizza and in the box. Which appear that the oven was not cleaned prior to putting my pizza in oven.

I want to address some of the negative reviews: I've eaten at Shelly's at least fifty times…read more It's a style of pizza you will probably only find in Pittsburgh... so choose NOT to compare it to "what you're used to"... second: tell them "how you like your pizza" (underdone, done just right, well-done)... they will oblige! This is a small business and YELP reviews make a difference. Be kind if the pizza isn't what you've "expected" Again, you won't find this style outside of the Pittsburgh area... understand your icons! Third: toppings are not methodically distributed like Dominoes: so the plus side is you often get "more" ... just because there's 10 pieces of pepperoni on one slice and four on another is part of the fun!! Shelly's never gets enough credit because Turtle Creek is off the beaten 'burgh.... Let's support this great iconic Pittsburgh restaurant!!!! One of my biggest regrets moving away from Pittsburgh is moving away from the greatest hidden pizza gems in America... yes I love Pepe's and John's of Bleecker, I love Malnatis and Gino's East... but you can take a Pittsburgh Pizza boy out of the city... you just can't take Pittsburgh Pizza outta the boy!

It's also a good place for lunch or dinner. They can accommodate groups in their party room, back room, or dining area.

I've heard GREAT things about this place, but we came on a Friday evening, and I truly think it was…read morejust an off night. I had friends that dined that night as well and they also did not have as good an experience as other visits. We started out with the salad, which probably was the best part! Light, refreshing, and tasty. The French onion soup was overwhelming. It had good flavor, but there was so much onion going on that I don't even think there was any broth to name it a soup. My main dish was the Romano chicken. It was the most bland chicken I've ever tasted, the risotto was par cooked and the sauce was not what I was expecting. Lackluster and watery. My friend got a pasta dish that was seemingly all oil. Overall the food was just average. Our server was nice and attentive, the drink was good, and the space is large and inviting. I'm hoping it was just an off night, so I'd be willing to try again in the future.

Seriously what's not to love about this place. From the servers to the food to the ambiance, both…read moretimes we've been here it's been immaculate. Got the pasta with a crispy chicken cutlet again, which could have been a meal on its own-may have been a foot across. House made pasta was delicious as usual. Star of this round was the brussel sprouts, by far the best I've ever had. Have heard people say they can make vegetables take on that meaty taste, and this nails it. And they're huge! Meatballs melt in your mouth.

Food: We ordered the Spaghetti Pesto Alfredo & Rigatoni Tomato Cream…read more The ingredients listed on the menu is what you get. Very simple, no extra effort given beyond the output of a classic italian dish. Each plate proportionately could have fed two people so it felt like we were eating for four. We both left full, but underwhelmed with the flavor profiles rendered. Service: Overall our waitress was pretty absent, having asked us how we were doing only twice, leaving little room for any comments or feedback to be offered. She recognized her absence and offered us a surprise tiramisu (complimentary) to make up for the lack of attentiveness to our table. Seating: A large bar stretches the restaurant accompanied by wooden chairs, tables and a few booths tucked against the parallel wall. The seating is not tight, meaning you have space between yourself and other parties but the wooden chairs/tables were uncomfortable. In 2026, we just expected a little more from a restaurant charging $20+ for pasta plates. Affordability: If you're going out for drinks and an appetizer, you might be able to sneak your bill in for under $50, but otherwise forget it. Each plate is $20+ with options on the wine list reaching as high as $200+ ... We wouldn't describe this atmosphere as fancy, but the prices are trying to be. Comments: Always support local, small business and give every spot a try. We left this restaurant full, but saying we wouldn't be back, and think it's important that you get an opportunity to read an honest review before you spend your hard earned money. Take care, and happy eating!

Let's eat together & celebrate my MIL's birthday…read more A little slice of Italy in McMurray South Hills of Pittsburgh. Craft cocktails (OMG...the SPRITZ options) & artisan wines meet an ever-changing Italian menu, all served in an effortlessly upscale setting. Perfect for date night, birthdays, or any special occasion. Pro tip: If you're celebrating, let them know!!! They'll add the guest of honor's name to the menu and the chalkboard above the kitchen. It is such a thoughtful, personal touch. Wine pick: a bottle of Zenato Valpolicella Ripassa (a must if you love red) What I ordered: smoked provolone, casa salad, cacio e pepe, chicken piccata Finished with a birthday chocolate cake...absolutely delicious Save this spot for your next celebration! Enjoy

I was near the neighborhood and looked up on Yelp for a recommendation and this restaurant came up…read moreas a sophisticated option. Parking is tight, but there is valet. I found a spot on the street. The building is a former school, which makes it interesting. It was busy on a Friday, but I was able to find a seat at the bar upstairs. I find it bizarre that sophisticated restaurants have sports screens at the bar. If you're sitting at the bar, there's nothing else for you to look at. Not in the mood for sports? This is not the place for you. I was surprised that an Italian place like this did not have a good Barbera wine on the menu. Bartender gave me some recommendations and I thought I was getting a sip to try, but he just brought the whole glass. I liked it so no worries there. I ordered the breaded zucchini as an appetizer and a meal. There were four pieces. But they are stuffed with goat cheese, and it just felt too rich. It's OK if you're in a group, but in my case, two pieces was all I could handle. For dessert, I had the banana crème brûlée, which was OK . I would not order it again. I wanted actual pieces of banana on my dessert which that one didn't have. Overall, it was an OK experience, but I would not go back .

I had traveled all day and was very tired, had just finished my dinner and my head was resting on the bar so they thought I was inebriated, which I was 100% not.

We have spent thousands of $$$$ there over the years and love the food, but this was so unprofessional and uncalled for that we will never go back!! Should've and could've been handled differently.

I got to try their lasagna, which came with a meatball, bread, and wedding soup. I quite enjoyed this meal. Prices were OK and the portion was satisfying. The lasagna had quite a lot of ricotta and it was reasonably flavorful, but I would have liked a bit more of a flavor from the sauce. The meatball was quite large. Not too flavorful and a bit of a tough texture (almost sausage like), but still good. Bread was very basic but free so can't complain. The wedding soup was quite good. Small cup but flavorful broth and quite a good amount of cheese (I think?) in there. All in all, I enjoyed my meal here. Good little Italian spot in East McKeesport and probably one of the better restaurants in this area.

But they have their to go system set up like a well oiled machine, there is a small takeout window at the bar right inside the door so you never actually enter the restaurant.
