Great authentic Italian cuisine with fresh ingredients. Nice Italian style decor with a family friendly atmosphere. The service is always on point, fast and friendly servers. Our go to appetizers are usually the homemade meatballs with ricotta cheese and crab stuffed hot peppers, both are delicious! I haven't found something I don't like here. All the chicken dishes are great including the Parm and Marsala are my go to dishes. A nice selection of seafood and veal as well. I've had catering from here and the chicken and beef dishes were great. The meal included mashed potatoes and mixed vegetables. I especially love to support small family owned businesses. Highly recommended! The only problem I usually have here is what to order! Hahaha! Salute

When the drink arrived, a straw/stirrer was included which allowed the entire drink to chill faster. When we informed the waitress of a severe food allergy, she let the kitchen know. We started with fried zucchini. I loved the horseradish sauce. My dining partner enjoyed the marinara on the large zucchini planks. The cups of wedding soup were piping hot. We both ordered salads. When served, we immediately asked for to go containers. The salads are huge. We shared the Lemon Amalfi cake. Again, huge portion. Delicious. Only request ... we listened to 70's music all through lunch. Update your play list. Ample parking. Easy access from parkway or turnpike. Also have backroom great for meetings or gatherings.

The interior has an overall modern feel and tables are well spaced out so you don't feel overcrowded. Portions are generally really large (which is great, because food is pretty pricey). I've been able to make two or three meals out of one entree here. Overall, service is pretty good but can be hit or miss. There was one day that I think they must have been having an off night because everyone seemed crazy stressed and very short with us when questions were asked. I was pleasantly surprised at how nice the side salad was. It was a great balance/mix of ingredients with delicious dressing. My main entree (Strozzapretti) was tasty but a bit seemed like there was a bit too much grease/oil or something that made the dish seem heavier than it needed to be. In general, a tasty place but could improve if service was more consistent.

Great view from table!

Tonight I called around 6 pm to place a takeout order and was told too busy and no takeout orders until 8 pm. Called back about 8:05pm and ordered two takeout dinners. Picked up the bag of food and drove home to find that two sides were not included. Called the restaurant 3 times before getting through. Explained the issue and drove back to pickup the rest of the dinner. Politely asked the woman tending bar if the restaurant offered any compensation since I had to return to get the rest of the meal. I understand mistakes happen but what I didn't expect was the male owner screamed at me saying it was a mistake. He continued in his irate yelling in front of other customers at the bar. I asked him why was he so upset and told him I didn't raise my voice when asking my question just wanted to know if they offered anything to compensate my time and effort to return because of their mistake. Many restaurants offer a dessert or discount on a future meal. As a customer I'm very disappointed with the way I was treated. Because they were very busy tonight I was told they did me a favor by taking my takeout order, which I placed after 8pm. I don't know him personally. Perhaps he is a great guy and maybe he was having a bad night but now he doesn't deserve our future business. There are other good restaurants in the area.

Good afternoon!!!! I would like to take this time to tell you how my family and myself absolutely love pizza Marsala. The people I work with over at CVS, we order from you guys all the time. However, I personally prefer to order at night. You can tell a difference in who is cooking the food. The lady who works at night definitely knows how to make our food taste wonderful! Every time my family and I order I am very satisfied when we order at night. She is very nice, very kind, and very polite. The older gentleman that works at night with her is very nice as well. Our pizzas are always good. The lady who works in the morning however, can be rude, and sometimes miserable, I try to have someone else I work with order the food during the day because I would prefer not to talk to her. My question is, why is there a young kid there during the day? Is that her child? I personally think a pizza shop with sharp objects and heavy objects is no place for a child. Pizza Marsala will as long as I am on this earth keep getting my business, but it will ONLY be at night time when I know my food is going to be made right without any mistakes and I know I will get talked to nicely. Thank you lady who works at night for making my families food right and tasteful!!!! read more

I have tried many many pizza's, however this Pizza Marsala ranks #1 for my taste buds. The Cheese and sauce are a perfect combination, the staff is always so friendly, and most importantly I've never had to wait longer than when I was promised it would be ready for. What is our favorite: Tuscan Chicken Pizza. We highly recommend this specialty however you won't go wrong with just a plain cheese. Give this place a shot, you won't be disappointed. read more

I tried their plain cheese calzone and a brownie with caramel. The calzone was quite interesting. It's probably the greasiest calzone I've had in a while, but surprisingly, it was still really good. Most of the grease had already spilled out of the calzone by the time I bit in. It's topped with a ton of garlic, so the bread part tasted like garlic bread. It was really good. Plus, the calzone was stuffed with an adequate amount of cheese (mozzarella mostly, and a little bit of ricotta as well). Quite good. Portion size was great for the small, and price was around $14 so not too bad. Sauce on the side was sweet but cold when served. The brownie was really good. It was super fudgey and had large chunks of chocolate scattered throughout it. Very soft. It's absolutely delicious and honestly one of the best brownies I've had in a while. And, it's huge! It's like four brownies in one order for $5. All in all, I think this place is underrated. Atmosphere isn't the best, but the people are kind (they came out with my food while I was waiting in the car and were courteous). The calzone tasted like a garlic bread with cheese filling and brownie was amazing.

It's an amazing, not too greasy sober slice. Hell, there's a strong possibility we'll be having some after our wedding. Tried the Chicken Ranchero because it was popular on Postmates. It's solid. Very unique taste. Not good enough to exchange for a more standard pie but if you're looking for one to "switch it up" this one will do it. The Meat Lovers was better in our mind. Not better than your standard cheese or Pepperoni but still good. Just flagging one thing, might not usually get called out - dont order their small Pizzas. Pay the couple extra bucks, get a pizza that's more normal size. Paying $40 for these two smalls which were smaller than most frozen Pizzas was jarring. Highly recommend that you don't put yourself through that.

The staff were all friendly and easy to work with. The vegetable pizza was a nice baseline option, and I added banana peppers. I highly recommend requesting additional sauce on the side. The crust was fine. They were clearly hand tossing dough in the back of the kitchen, but this isn't a long ferment situation. This is crust that offers a sufficient substrate and nothing more. There was some browning, but it's not clear that the oven was particularly hot. This was more of a "put the pizza on a conveyer belt" type operation, rather than a ripping hot brick oven operation. Even so, it was fine. The Greek salad was a salad. Nothing to write home about. The iceberg lettuce was. The red onions were fresh. The croutons were a little excessive. I'm not actually sure why they didn't close the deal and add banana peppers and tomatoes. Also, canned black olives rather than anything remotely Greek. All told, the pizza did its job.

We ordered the Buffalo Ranch Chicken pizza. What we actually got was the Chicken Bacon Ranch pizza. Apparently our pizza identified as something else by the time we got home. To be fair, it was delicious... just not the surprise we were expecting. The square, fluffy crust deserves some love. It's thick, soft, and seriously tasty. We also ordered ranch and garlic dipping sauces, but only one made the journey. I'm assuming the other is living its best life somewhere in Dormont. Overall, I'd absolutely give Jet's another shot. Just do yourself a favor and inspect the pizza box and bag before you escape Dormont's city limits. Trust, but verify. Bonus points for the logo--it's cooler than it has any right to be.
