I have stopped by here twice now for dinner with my family. Once was in September and most…read morerecently was two Fridays ago. Florence Pizza and Pasta is located on 19 in West View and is in the same location as at least 3 previous pizzerias. The inside is mostly the kitchen and consists of an area where you can pick up your pizza. On our most recent visit I chose to call in my order and went with a 18" thin crust pepperoni pizza. Total cost for it ended up being $26.20 and we were told it was going to be ready in 15-20 minutes. My wife picked it up on this occasion and I had picked it up on our first visit. The pizza itself here ended up tasting pretty good. The cheese was super flavorful and there was a good amount of it. Meanwhile the sauce was a nice supporting flavor to the cheese without overpowering it. Finally the crust was pretty good and crispy, especially on the edges. Then the underneath was thin as requested although it wasn't as crispy as I had expected. Finally, the pizza was cut interestingly as it wasn't the usual triangles and instead was 4 cuts straight across from two directions. All of this was an improvement over our first trip which included a hole in our pizza. The bottom line for me is that I might stop by here again in the future. While the pizza was pretty tasty, it's hard to justify the price tag, especially after the hole on our first visit.

After being in the area at Avonworth High School for a football game in the fall, we decided to…read morestop at Pizza Pronto for a late dinner before we headed home. We came here on recommendation and suggestion from my parents, who had heard good things about the Pierogi Pizza. Pizza Pronto & Gyro House is located in Avalon on California Avenue. They serve a variety of pizzas, salads, gyros, starters, calzones, hoagies, wings, and more. The restaurant has dine in as well as takeout. They are open from 10:00 AM until 9:00 PM during the week, and on Fridays and Saturdays they are open later until 11:00 PM. With so many pizza places having earlier closing times in the last few years, it is appreciated that this one has extended hours a few nights a week. The store is situated on a quiet street, tucked back in a sort of residential area. There are other different shops surrounding it on either side. The signage is very clean and prominent, so you will not miss it driving by. As for parking, there is no dedicated private lot. There is street parking on both sides of the road that the store sits on. We had no issue getting a spot, likely due to the time of day we visited. However, I could see if you came during peak times it might be a little harder to find a spot, or you may have to walk a tad bit to get to the storefront. For seating, there are both indoor and outdoor options. There are benches and a few patio tables with umbrellas on the sidewalk in front of the building. Inside, there are several four-top tables that can be pushed together for larger groups. When we arrived around 9:30 PM on a Friday this past September, there were a few others dining in. However, it was not at all crowded. It is open seating, so we found a table of our liking for our group of four. It appears that at one time there was table service, but there was signage up saying they no longer offered this. Since there is no table service, you place your order at the counter, which is right at the entrance. They have menu boards hanging behind the counter, or alternatively there are paper menu pamphlets. After taking some time to browse our options, we ordered a few starters and a pizza for the group to share. To start, we ordered Spinach and Feta Pronto Rolls and the 6-Count of Stuffed Grape Leaves with Lemon Wedge. Both of these were very good! I personally liked the rolls the best, as they were a good snacking size to have a few before the main meal. The Grape Leaves were also very good. My fiancé is a big fan of these, and will order them whenever they are on the menu. He had high praise for these ones! For our pizza, we all shared the Large Pierogi Pizza. This is a gourmet pie that has a potato and onion mixture, cheddar cheese, mozzarella cheese, and provolone cheese. It also came with sour cream on the side. It was cooked perfectly, and the overall flavor of the pie was great. The pieces are very filling, and I personally could only eat one. It was a 8-cut pie, and we had leftovers to take home, even with four of us eating it. I enjoyed having the option of sour cream to complement the essence of pierogi. The food came out relatively quickly. We ordered some of the items at different times, due to different arrivals of the group. Each item was ready within 15 minutes of placing the order. We were satisfied with the service in this regard. We were happy also with the service from the staff here. They were all friendly and helpful throughout our entire visit. In terms of value, I believe this place is a good one. For a pizza and two starters, we spent around $50 before tax for four people to eat (including drinks). The pizza we got specifically is a little more expensive, but it is a speciality pie. However, four adults being able to eat with food leftover for around $50 is a good deal to me. I think you will get your money's worth when dining here. Being from the South Hills, I never found myself up this way to eat at this pizza shop. However, I was very satisfied with the food, ambiance, service, and overall experience of this visit. I would recommend stopping at Pizza Pronto if you find yourself in this part of the city. They have an extensive menu, options for dine-in and takeout, and extended hours on the weekends. When I return, I am interested in trying more of their extensive menu, such as the Gyros or the Hoagies!

With lots of pizza places around always looking for a place different from the masses. They have a fairly large and varied menu from pizza, appetizers burgers, crab cakes and wraps.

The cheese mix was tasty and plenty on both pizzas. The sauce was applied plenty on both. The salad was expected. Overall definitely will go back. Give them a try.

I got to try out their plain cheese pizza. It was solid. Nothing too exceptional really but not bad. The sauce is a little sweet but not excessively so. As I mentioned, it is doughy, but I think their dough quality is a little above the average in the area. Their portion sizes are pretty great and the food is super reasonably priced. This would be a great pizza for game day or a relaxed weekend. All in all, nice spot for pie. They also have some more interesting pizza styles, like Mediterranean and such. I would go back to try those, but even with the basics, prices and portions are good.

I'll start with the one positive because I like to write positive reviews. This review is me being generous. This is purely my opinion after my experience. Unfortunately, the trivia company didn't show up. However, one of the employees stepped up and created a great name that tune game. She did a great job at it and everyone enjoyed it. The manager kept apologizing and thanked everyone for their patience which was very nice. Wish he had gotten his staff to be more friendly and helpful. Now to the points that aren't as positive. The restaurant was full because people wanted to come for trivia. The male server who seated us wouldn't give us a table even though we said we were going to eat and do trivia. That was annoying and frustrating. They only had two servers to care for the whole restaurant which was ridiculous. Our server was impossible to find and short with us most times. We managed to get some of the drink orders in before happy hour was over but missed others because she was nowhere to be found. My friend tried to get a drink at the bar in time but the bartender refused. When we got the drinks they weren't that good. Thankfully some of them were happy hour pricing or we would have been really mad. My friend and I shared the Chicago style deep dish which left a lot to be desired. The sauce was good but it was burnt and tough to eat. My other friend got the personal pineapple pizza and she enjoyed it. It's too bad it was such a negative experience because my friends and I love trivia and were trying to find new places to go in the North Hills to play.

I ordered two cheese pizzas with light tomato sauce along with sausages on pizzas. My boyfriend had two Sicilian pizzas. Everything was made fresh and hot, the food came out pizza was very, very delicious. I'll go back when I'm back in Pittsburgh. That was probably the best pizza I've ever had.

Ridiculously fresh and so tasty. I want to go back and eat outside, maybe while watching a game on their huge screen.

A bunch of family members gathered here after a funeral service on a Thursday night and found that…read moreit was a perfect spot to come together to grab food as there's a little bit of everything for everybody and beverage. They have a lot of outdoor dining space available, which is great and they have a large green area that #MIN kids were running around on. They were watching the world soccer game amongst other things. There are several different kitchen options to order from everything is done through the app. There is a parking garage nearby, which I highly recommend parking in as parking is super tight in this area. There are multiple other businesses here and dining experiences, which is great because you can walk around and experience them all if you want to. It is super loud outside, so it's very hard to hear people even just sitting across from you and having a conversation. We ordered from the City kitchen and chose the beef Bulgogi eggrolls to start with. Only two come in order which I was disappointed by so we ended up ordering two orders, but the food was good. Later on in the evening, I also ordered the coconut curry stir fry with chicken. Definitely a hearty dish with great flavor and there are noodles in this. I honestly wish that there would've been more of the curry in it because the noodles soaked up everything so there was really no additional broth or anything in the bowl.
