We started with the table bread...which I could have eaten all night. My husband and I split the Margherita pizza and gnocchi with meatballs. I am not sure which one I liked better.

Got there and we were immediately seated at a table on the outside heated patio. The good Appetizers - the areanchini, peppers, crab cake, meat ball and buratta hit the spot. Id probably give it a 5/5 - the diablo pizza was great as well The ok - chicken marsala was decent - penne rosa: nothing special The bad/terrible - the mushroom pizza was salty. Not sure what happened there - got some other pasta (can't remember the name) that was so bland, thought it came from costco - the bread: what's up with some American based Italian restaurants. Put some effort in the bread you serve - we had some different ladies serve us after a while and when we asked for the spicy olive oil they said they don't have it. I thought they were just trying to get done for the day vs actually serving us

You order at the register and then find your own seat. On a random Friday around noon, the tables were almost completely packed, which is always a good sign. After seeing what everyone else was eating, it seemed like the meatball sandwich was the clear favorite...so of course, I had to order one. It did not disappoint! The meatballs were delicious, served on crusty Italian bread with a mix of cheeses, including blue cheese, which gave the sandwich a unique flavor that really worked. Absolutely delicious! DiAnoia's is already a must-go for dinner, but I'd definitely add lunch to the regular rotation when I'm in the Strip District. Great food, casual lunch vibe, and clearly a popular spot for good reason.

It's always great finding hidden gems whenever we make our roadtrips. Here we are in our hotel amongst so many chain restaurants and we do not do chains. Following Yelp reviews we made a list and then checked it twice, yup for real with a local who works at the Hilton in Uniontown. When went with low to medium expectations and had that blown away as soon as Kameron made his intro never saying no to anything we were asking about. For our dinner we started with the crab special, gorgeous chunks of finished in a balsamic reduction. For my main, I had the walleye special and the fish was cooked to perfection very lightly breaded lightly fried, extremely moist, tender, and very tasty and beautifully plated against the side of vegetables. My wife had grilled chicken penne à la vodka that she absolutely loved. We were on such a good role and enjoying ourselves with our bottle of wine as well that we decided to order coffee sides with espresso and a lemon Raspberry cake that our surprise was so amazing. We actually did finish it. Please see photographs of our beautiful meal and since we were in the area for a couple days, we are going again during this trip .

The food was as good as it could be for south western PA. The french onion soup was good. Cheesy and many onions. I liked it. The angel hair was very overcooked and very mushy. I'm not sure what i was thinking as angel hair is hard to cook so maybe stick to the spaghetti. I would recommend the lunch portion over the dinner portion. The meatballs were spiced well and had a nice texture. The sauce was not too sweet but a bit bland. After the soup i really only ate 1 meatball. The stuffed pasta with vodka sauce was good. A bit salty but pasta was cooked well. I would recommend this but again a large portion even for lunch.

They will give you more than you can eat (starts with bread, then a salad, then pasta, and then the entree). There is lot parking nearby that you can pay at a kiosk (if you can find parking) or pay a valet. The meal is structured with bread served along side "holy oil" (olive oil dipping sauce infused with herbs and peppers) and fagioli spread for the bread. Incredible so far and gets better. We skipped appetizers and went to the salad. You get a lot of salad. I got the Tuscan kale salad - delicious, with the heavy bitter taste of the kale balanced with apples, candied walnut, and lemon vinaigrette dressing. The star of the evening was the cacio e pepe pasta which they mix in front of you at your table. The taste of the rich Romano cheese, salty with pepper and silky smooth (yet binding) is almost transcendental. You have to just taste this. I can't do it justice in a written review. The main course was the pollo forno. Chicken with a sauce that was almost like chimmichurri, fingerling potatoes. I was still bedazzled from the pasta, but the main course was still scrumptious. Service is top-notch. The servers know the menu and are ready to help with recommendations. This is worth the splurge. Go already if you haven't.

This is our second time visiting this restaurant and we loved it just as much…read more We started our meal with the smoked provolone. It was very over the top and indulgent. I went with the casa salad, it had so many toppings including a lot of blue cheese. I feel it would have been enough for my meal. For my pasta, we did the cacio e Pepe, which what they are famous for. They don't do it table side for GF pasta since it would be cross contaminated. For our main my husband and I shared the margarita veal medallions and the sea bass. Both were very good and large servings. For dessert, they gave us a complimentary champagne glasses and a little dessert. We also got the crème brûlée. It had cherries on top and a chocolate ganache at the bottom. Once again, very indulgent. I had a lemon drop martini that was very good during my meal and a glass of wine. They have a very good wine list but not very affordable. Overall, it's a great place for special occasions. They have very good waitstaff and it makes the experience even better.

I'd been here before a few years ago, and had such a great experience that I knew I would be back. Our waitress, Michelle, was so friendly and so helpful with suggesting food and wine. She took great care of us and we felt very attended to. Both the Head Chef Giuseppe and his wife Vincenza checked in on our table as well. This restaurant clearly offers a very personable dining experience. The food is wonderful, I had the caprese salad, the sausage and peppers and the meatballs for apristomaco, and then one of the specials was a Branzino over gnocchi with shrimp and spring veggies. For dessert most of the table had gelato, and I had the pistachio ricotta cake. I am so full as I type this, the portions are very generous. What stands out to me about the food is the bright assortment of flavor, every dish feels perfected- nothing feels even remotely dialed-in. I never come to Steubenville, other than for work on scant occasion, and I'd say that it would be worth it to come here even just specifically to have dinner at this restaurant. It was definitely busy when we came in- I think everyone in town knows that this is the best Italian food around. This is definitely one of my favorite restaurants and I can say with certainty that I'll be back again.
