    What an Italian deli should be. Amazing and extensive collection of cheeses. An olive bar equally as impressive. The smell of cured meats hitting you in the face as soon as you hit the door. Great selection of dry goods and oils. Love the mic of slack jawed visitors (such as myself) and locals grabbing ingredients for a meal. A special place.

    Any Italian product you may need will be inside these walls! They also have other products as well. Such a terrific store that is simple and welcoming. Tons of options and speciality items. Even if not shopping, walk through this store as you are bound to find something you would want to try!

    This is my happy place. I could truly walk around here for hours thinking of different recipes to make with all of these ingredients! The vodka sauce is incredible. It is always packed, especially on weekends, but all counter service and checkouts are super efficient! I love it here so much and always make great meals! Their to-go desserts are also delicious, highly recommend.

    I saw Penn Mac post the Wensleydale & Blueberries cheese as the cheese of the week and I immediately ran over to go try it. I love that they highlight and give details about their products on their Facebook page and I love the array of cheeses and meats they have for customers the ambience is great. The service is fast. It's the best grocery store in the Strip district hands-down!

    A great Italian specialties store in the Strip District. The selection is amazing! Try have a large area of pastas, a cheese counter with dozens of choices including hard to find cheese like scamorza (I use for lasagna). Oils, vinegars, bread, and more. Knowledgeable staff help you find that perfect cheese. Ask for a sample. Love Penn Mac.

    This is my second visit at this location, a stable well known in the Strip District. It was nice to see that not much had changed in the store look; since my first visit Memorial Day weekend 2011.. fast forward to Memorial Day weekend 2022. For me; the returning was a happy; pleasent ; fun memory when my mom and I were in awe of the layout of the store. If your looking for a one stop; shop; for ethnic Italian and other items be sure to take a gander ..you won't be disappointed. From locally made honey; to yes; despite the pandemic and covid; there is a bulk section that was reasonably priced per pound. Love that feel for normalcy. One large section of the store is your deli; section for the bulk; spices; fruit; pasta a bit of everything. Bon Appétit...a sure delight for all young and older.

    What don't they have here? Basically feels like nothing. They have so much and there's so much variety. Great Italian imports also. Meat and cheese and fish galore. There is always a line and always a lot to try for next time. The place gets flooded with happy customers.

    Huge selection of fresh cheeses, some meats, olives, etc. Charcuterie lover's paradise! Not for the lactose intolerant but I am and I will suffer just to eat the cheeses from here! Huge variety of pasta and all the gear as well. Ravioli press and all kinds of kitchen tools and gadgets. Very cool!

    I have been here before on a visit but never wrote a review. Let's remedy that now. Lordy this place has the goods... I've been having a hard time trying to get Tagliatelle and it's been difficult. Well they had it and another in spinach too. The pastas are from different areas of Italy and some USA brands too. Oh they also make FRESH PASTA.. it's excellent get you some. They make there own bottled marinara, you can find Italian candies, cookies and the like. Lots of antipasti items. Lots of everything! We also picked up some proper Gardinara that's packed in oil as it should be! Oh Sweet Baby Jesus the cheese counter... they make fresh mozzarella on site it's delicious. Prices are moderate but they carry the best of the best items. They also have on the other side the deli area for all your charcuterie dreams. They have all sorts for items and I believe they also have frozen ravioli and more but check the website as you can order online. A lot of my family does that as they no longer live in the area. This place has been here forever! If you can't find what you need to make that specific Italian dish ask they staff is friendly and helpful. It's on The Strip and parking can be a bit difficult. As an out of towner I would suggest alternative ways to get to this area. It's absolutely worth the visit!

    Pennsylvania Macaroni (Penn Mac) is a fantastic local Italian Grocery Store located in the Strip District of Pittsburgh. There is a great selection of meats and cheeses, pastas, olive oils and so much more. Anytime my family is planning to make a charcuterie board, stopping here is a must! During the Easter season, they carry Italian Chocolate Eggs which are a staple in my house. There is also BreadWorks bread toward the back of the store. Our favorite is the focaccia. In the room where the checkout counters are, there are many fresh fruits and vegetables just like in any regular grocery store. The workers are always so kind every time we visit. If you are ever visiting Pittsburgh, Penn Mac is a store you will want to visit!

The staff is knowledgeable and friendly, plus they have a passion for great cheese. The Penn Mac will always be my favorite, but this shop is a great option for this community to the north of Pittsburgh. Definitely worth visiting!

    Very frustrated after our most recent experience here. We were so excited when Curds & Mold opened,…read moreand were absolutely in love with the wide selection available - shopping there often and sometimes making special trips just to purchase cheese from this location. However, this evening my father drove out of his way to purchase cheese here, arriving at 5:15pm - 45 minutes before the shop closes. When he got there and walked inside to make his purchase, he was turned away because (in spite of the door being unlocked and there being no signage on the door) they were having a private party. He was immensely frustrated and we're so disappointed in how poorly this situation was handled - they could have at least allowed him to make his purchase after driving 30 minutes out of his way to shop there. I will not be shopping here in the future, and find it very unfortunate that a business with such potential suffers from horrible customer service.
