September 2025 - Lunch on the sidewalk. They kindly let us in a few minutes before opening. - Front of house team was just awesome. - The pizza by the slice is advertised as "extra large" or something like that. It is gigantic. One slice is easily a meal. I could not finish mine. Excellent foldable slice with crust that held up well and was nice and crispy on the edges; my counterpart was similarly impressed with hers. We were super-impressed. Great place for a lunch-snack in Pittsburgh's Strip! read more

Walked by this spot as I was heading to Ironman and quickly changed my mine. It smelled SO good. Sat by the bar and was able to enjoy the pirates game and a women's college game. I wasn't drinking because I had the half marathon the following day, but they had a good selection of beer on tap. To carb up I went with the pizza rolls and it was so dang good. 10/10. My waitress AJ (at least that's what my receipt says) regularly checked in on me and seemed super sweet. read more

Bella Notte is one of those no-frills spots that still knows how to deliver. It's super casual, nothing fancy, but that's exactly the vibe. The $6 monster slices are the real star here! Huge and consistently delicious. Whether you're stopping in for a quick bite or hanging out for a bit, it's a great place to relax and know you'll get good food and friendly, reliable service. Definitely a go-to if you're in the area and craving solid pizza without the fuss. read more

Bella Notte - Monster Slice - Pizza Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Extremely busy on a Saturday afternoon during college football season. 30 min wait for a table, but we were able to find a couple of bar seats. They were understaffed for as busy as they were so first round of drinks was fast - had to flag down the occasional bartender when one appeared to order anything else. Good beer selection, menu is typical casual italian place - Pizza, calzone, hoagies, wraps, pasta dishes. We got two apps, the stuffed hot peppers and the pepperoni roll. Both were good. The stuffed hot peppers were outstanding and I would absolutely order these every time. Pepperoni roll was decent - not my favorite. Downey's House in McKees Rocks is still my favorite pepperoni roll in the city. Long story short - I would go back. The pizza and sandwiches looked really good and I want to get back there to try them. read more

I don't know how this place isn't talked about much. I LOVED the food here. The service was slower in comparison but the portion size and the ambiance was beautiful. It helps that this place is on the strip district of Pittsburg. Surprisingly the MVP of my dine-in here were the mimosas. read more

Been here several years in a row for Mother's Day weekend. Every time it has been a tremendous experience. This year our server was Tiffany. She was wonderful. Pizza was crispy and flavorful with the "right" ratio of sauce to cheese. Double pepp standard, apparently, but in 2 forms. Not greasy, crisp crust. Pepp fried all was delish. Loved the seating w big open garage doors... felt outsidey with inside "cover." Never felt rushed, despite the holiday weekend. One criticism... please add frozen drinks. A Ninja unit for frozen margs is under 1k. Please. Frozen margs with great pizza in a summer breeze with the girl crew is the prescription for a perfect Tuesday evening. read more

Quick service for a busy weekend Tiffany took great care of us! We got one cheese, pizza, buffalo pizza, and one white pizza. The Buffalo chicken pizza could use a little bit more chicken on it but still tasty. Glad I got to check this place out on such a fun St. Patrick's day weekend! read more

This place pizza is terrible. It's all just bread with tomato sauce. Like where's the cheese? Where's the seasoning? Why is it all soggy? Ew ! We bought a whole pie to eat with a study group. I just wanted to vomit. Will NEVER purchase from here again. Where is the authentic Italian behind the pizza? You just slap a whole bunch of tomato sauce on bread and sold it to me? I think not. read more

Went back to Pittsburgh for a quick detour to Baltimore. Bella Notte was the exact same place i remember! We had an amazing server! We ordered the Spinach Artichoke Bruschetta and it was very very good! The bread was soft on the inside and crunchy on the outside and the dip itself was amazing. We got the same pizza as last time and it tastes exactly how I remember! Cheesy, greasy and good good crust! God I miss this place read more

This review is for a takeout order that I made while nearby. We stay in the Strip regularly and with being a pizza enthusiast, it's been one we haven't gotten to yet. I placed the order and picked up a little later than I would have liked. The pizza was just past perfect eating temp, so I microwaved it in the hotel room and gave it a try. Very good margherita pizza. Vine-ripe sauce, fresh mozzarella cheese, and basil garnish. Very very good. For this pie? My score is a 8.8 read more

Relax atmosphere that wasn't too loud and excellent service. We had the world famous pepperoni roll, which was as delicious as announced Crispy and a wonderful balance with a nice sauce. The local favorite, Italian Stallion Hoagie, was good but nothing to write home about. We really regretted not getting a pizza because everyone that we saw come in the kitchen looked absolutely amazing. I had a bloody Mary, which was absolutely delicious and perhaps the best I've had ever and my wife had a vanilla vanilla latte, which she enjoyed. read more

Spend about $30-50 per person. Bella Notte is amazing! The food is sooooo good!! There was a great beer selection! Our waitress was this gorgeous blonde, Lauren! She gave some great beer recommendations to our party with some picky drinkers. Not only that, she recommended the Tomato Basil Bruschetta which was literally a plate of gold. I about lost it when the Margherita Pizza came out. It was so damn good! Will definitely be returning to try some of Lauren's other recommendations! She was spot on with everything. No one ever had an empty glass. Top-tier customer service and extensive knowledge of your amazing menu! Food: 5/5 | Service: 5/5 | Atmosphere: 5/5 Noise level Moderate noise with great staff and a beautiful environment! This place is a Pittsburgh GEM!!!! Group size 5-8 people read more

Food is good pizza rolls , soup, slice was big. Crust is ok not great. Server was very attentive. They have some pretty good pepperoni pizza that actually has two types of pepperoni shredded or shaved as well as regular pepperoni. I've also had it where it had cubed pepperoni which were three types of pepperoni and pizza but they didn't do it this time. The steak sandwich was pretty good but the bread should have been grilled before putting the meat on it it was sort of dry. We had a white pizza as well and that was pretty good. Overall would probably try it again maybe add something different. Also had drinks which were really good, were strong and made right. BUTTT......Sorry. There are definitely a few better spots for pizza and Italian eats in the Burgh that I would recommend. read more

I very rarely post a negative review and I want to be clear this is a reflection of our experience and preferences. Post-marathon we knew we needed food and pizza is nearly always a great opportunity. Bella Notte wasn't crowded so we stopped in. We ordered the Italian pizza and now, 24 hrs later, we still have many regrets. Cheese lovers might enjoy love this pizza. I love cheese, but even for me it was entirely tooooooo much. Like a pound of cheese, complete with all of the accompanying cheesy grease. Our stomachs are still a mess from eating a couple of pieces each. Service was also very slow while we were there - frustrating. Altogether a regrettable meal for us. read more

Of the many, many trips I've made to the Strip, this was my first ever visit to Bella Notte. We simply couldn't agree where to get lunch and just happened to walk up the street and this was the first place we saw. So we decided to give it a try. The streets were packed because it was the day before Super Bowl. We were able however to get quickly seated. We finally agreed to just get a pizza. We split an 8 cut white pizza. It was a surprisingly big pizza and was plenty for the three of us, in fact we brought some home. It was a decent white pizza, not the best I've had by far, but not bad either. Our server was attentive and friendly. It was a decent experience. read more

We came to Bella Notte while visiting Pittsburgh's Iconic Strip Strip District. We came between Christmas and New Years so it was pretty packed. We got into Bella Notte after about a 20 minute wait. The place has a really nice bar and a larger than it looks from the outside seating area. We got a pizza and a couple of hoagies. Our server let us know that hoagies were bigger than the wraps, so we went with them. We really enjoyed everything that we got. read more

Service was fantastic! My husband and I are in town for a wedding and were craving some authentic Italian food. We couldn't say no to the mom-and-pop feel of the place. We are so glad we stopped in. My husband has a severe tree nut allergy and the staff was so thorough in making sure he was safe and well fed. It also attested to the freshness of the food since we were told exactly where things were made. The flavors were so fresh! There's indoor and outdoor seating to fully appreciate street side Pittsburgh. A must go! read more

This restaurant was very ok... certainly not anything to look at but the food was alright and with what seems to be the theme in Pittsburgh... huge portions! Our server was a bit bizarre but trying his best. We had the cheesy garlic bread to start and it was ok. We both ordered the Italian Sausage Hoagies and they were ok, lol. The bread was completely split which was annoying as everything just kept falling apart and they were weirdly served with ruffles... I ended up just eating the sausage because it was just too much. The sausage was really good though. Again, the portions are huge, I recommend splitting with someone because both my partner and I had to take half home plus most of the bread, lol. Looking around, the pizza did look good though so I'll probably venture there in the future to try that and update my review then. read more

Love the energy of this restaurant, it's like the pinnacle of the vibrant strip district with affordable food and drink. We sat outside with a group and had the sweetest waitress! She got every order correct (although most of us got the $5 pizza special). The pizza is doughy (which I love) and the pepperonis are the good little ones that crisp on the edge. Definitely recommend for a classic Strip District experience! read more

Service was great, monster slice of pizza is a good deal and pizza is delicious. Pittsburgh cheesesteak not so great, it lacked cheese and very little peppers and onions, the antipasto salad was ok.

Saw this place while I was running through the Strip District and decided to stop in and get a little bit of food. The ambiance is alright and the people there are pretty friendly, but I guess I entered through the wrong entrance so be sure you enter through the right door. Anyway, I ordered 2 slices of regular cheese pizza and a slice with cheese and mushrooms. Their slices are absolutely huge so you will not need much to fill you up and the price is super decent. The flavor was very average. Crust was crispy and it was overall a thin slice, which I prefer. But the sauce and cheese tasted super generic and the mushrooms also tasted canned. So it's more of a quality of quantity place. Also keep in mind they only do the big single slices for their traditional red sauce pizza and you can add on toppings from there. No giant monster slices for the White pie unfortunately. One other thing I'll note is that the service was pretty alright with a lady checking in to see if I need water and a box, etc. The seat where I sat was not the most comfortable though and when someone just sat down behind me, my seat short of shaked quite a bit. All in all, an okay pizza shop. It's not super flavorful but the food comes in nice qualities and the deals are pretty good. Solid service but ambiance isn't the best. read more

Excellent experience for lunch. When they say their monster slices are huge they are not kidding. Hubby got 2 with pepperoni and took one home. They do not skimp on toppings neither. Also got the blueberry crush which was good. If someone wants a strong drink , this is the place. Definitely plan to visit again. read more

Stopped by for lunch after doing some shopping in the strip. Cool casual restaurant. Perfect spot for people watching if you're into that sort of thing. My boyfriend and I were seated right away it was nice not to have a wait especially during a busy weekend. Our waitress was friendly and answered all of our questions about the menu. We started out with drinks. I had the strawberry daiquiri and it was fantastic! Very tasty and just the right amount of alcohol in it. My boyfriend was pretty impressed with the beer selection. We ordered a Pepperoni Pizza and it was delicious! The dough was amazing not to thick or thin. It wasn't sweet either, but had a great taste to it. The toppings were equally as good. We had the perfect lunch date here and will definitely be back. read more

4.5 stars (when is Yelp gonna give us the half star?). And honestly my only complaint isn't a full half of a star - their lemons for water/drinks are janky. Mushy, falling apart, just plain weird. Everything else is 5+ stars. Great ambience, service, drinks, and food. Stopped in just for a drink and wound up staying for a few hours of people watching out the open garage doors and then grabbing a snack. The Pepperoni Roll - HANDS DOWN the BEST pepperoni roll I've ever had. Pepperoni is a tad bit spicy, but it's the perfect complement to the homemade marinara sauce. They slice and sear the the roll which just puts it over the top with little extra bits of burnt cheese. All I can say is get yinz to Bella Notte and enjoy!!! read more

Stopped for a quick lunch with a buddy. Wasn't too hungry and it wasn't too crowded...we were seated immediatly.

Well done! read more

Best pizza in Pittsburgh. The dough had such a distinct flavor and sweetness to it. I don't care what "someone" rates pizza on a scale, because everyone likes their own style. Had the pizza and buffalo chicken wrap--both were excellent! The pizza had a perfectly crispy crust, rich sauce, and just the right amount of toppings. The buffalo chicken wrap was flavorful, with tender chicken, just the right amount of spice, and a delicious balance of creamy and tangy flavors. What really stood out was how kind and attentive the staff were. They made the experience even better with their friendly demeanor and prompt service. It's not every day you find such great food paired with such exceptional hospitality. I'll definitely be coming back! read more

Ordered 2 pies for a birthday celebration. Large pepperoni and medium x cheese,bacon,mushrooms. Considering toppings are $3 each I was very disappointed to see I had hardly any bacon or mushrooms on the pizza. Even the x tra cheese was questionable, because the pepperoni pie seemed to have the same amount of cheese on it . On the positive side there was a decent amount of pepperoni on the one pie, but they finely chop all of their toppings into small pieces, I think $3 is way too expensive for toppings that are the size of minced food. Plus both pies were burnt at the bottom, which makes it nearly impossible to convince children to eat, yet alone an adult to want to eat the pizza. All we tasted was bitter burnt crust . I remember when Bella Note was fresh and flavorful! What happened? read more

We were walking along the strip when we realized we hadn't eaten lunch yet. My boyfriend goes - "look! a pizza cafe!" So you know we had to go. We were seated as soon as we walked inside inside. The Pitt vs Duke game was on, so it was extremely busy, but you honestly wouldn't notice based on the service. The atmosphere was very hometown restaurant and bar, and it felt easy for the whole family. The pizza was AMAZING. The sauce had a lot of richness and garlic. The crust was chewy. A ton of cheese and toppings!!! I ordered the Italian sausage hoagie - You can tell it was a family recipe, so good! The bread really was incredible!! Definitely homemade and very soft!! I put red pepper flakes all over everything and it was a spicy good time. read more
