Every year my girlfriend and I find a cooking or baking class that is local in Pittsburgh to do…read moretogether. This year we decided to down our robes and become disciples of Saint Ravioli. Getting a spot in a class is very hard since they are limited to 6-8 people, but if you get the chance I absolutely recommend it. The classes are 2 hours long each and are extremely intimate. Bryan and Justin will meet you at the door and will introduce you to their workshop. There is a spread of antipasto to snack on which was curated very well. Each person gets to make 4 (four!!) dozen raviolis each. The class is extremely informative and fun. I personally haven't ordered any of their ravioli drops before, but from eating the batch I personally made, I know I will in the future. Highly recommend ordering their raviolis online or taking the class if it's available.

It's a fun experience and I will definitely do it again.

Some items are a tad bit pricier, but I'll pay a few dollars more because this store is so clean !

I started off with French onion soup, which was delicious. The soup had a great flavor and paired well with their homemade bread. For my meal I went with the medley number 2, which was a stuffed shell, eggplant parm, and ziti. The best part was the stuffed shells. I did enjoy the other two options, but they were pretty standard italian.

I wish this place was a little closer to home we have Maria's dinner every other night. We will definitely be back and can't thank you all enough for everything the last few weeks.

So this location was only about a 10 minute walk from our hotel and we are so glad that we checked…read moreit out. It is a very cozy Italian restaurant that's serving homemade Italian food like your Nonna would make for you. We showed up on a Tuesday night and it was packed. It was around six or 6:30 in the evening and when we first got there, we were told it would be about a 20 minute wait before a two top was available. But the host came back and asked if we didn't mind sitting by the kitchen they could see us right away. We chose to sit by the kitchen, which honestly was probably the best option because it was actually a little bit quieter because there was a very large party that was celebrating a birthday and they had live music going on so it was hard to hear when you were in the main dining space but back by the kitchen it's a little bit quieter and we could actually hear ourselves talk. My husband got the penne with meatballs and the penny was nicely cooked with a beautiful tomato Bass sauce and the meatballs or some of the best Italian meatball he's ever had. His only complaint was that there were only two in the order and he wished there would've been three. I got the spinach and ricotta, stuffed ravioli, and by far one of the best raviolis I've ever had. The ravioli are large so there's only about five in a dish but they're packed fully and the flavoring and seasoning is absolutely spectacular. It's got a beautiful sauce like accompanies it and the chew you can definitely tell it is handmade pasta/ravioli. Our server, Emma was absolutely spectacular and was so kind. We truly enjoyed our experience here and would highly recommend anybody to check it out if you're in the area. But we also do recommend make your reservations ahead of time. This place gets packed quickly.

Very, very good Italian spot near Walnut Street, very close by all the top shops. The ambiance is…read morevery nice, both inside and outside. Pretty tight space though. The waitresses are friendly and have great recommendations. I got to try their linguine rustica (essentially the clam pasta dish), a cappuccino, some cherry soda, and soup of the day, as well as complimentary bread. They got that bread out very quickly! Very soft, and served with quite high quality olive oil. The bottle has both olive oil and balsamic! The soup of the day was quite good as well. It was some sort of beef broth, I think may a beef and bean soup. Chickpeas in there as well. Next time, I might try the salad. The salad they have as a side is so good, an amazing portion and seems so fresh and tasty. The mains were excellent. Very good pasta with clam sauce. Lots of clam meat and a flavorful oil based sauce. My friend had some red penne with chicken and enjoyed that as well. Great portions, pretty fair prices. Finally, great drinks as well. Very memorable cherry cola that I believe the company is owned by the owner's son. Real cane sugar, very good. The cappuccino was great as well. Definitely come here!

We ordered the eggplant caviar and the tartare. The caviar was very good and my husband liked the tartare. The mussels were cooked very nicely and the broth was the real star of the show. You need to order the focaccia to soak up the broth. We ordered the trout, spaetzle, and cavatelli. Everything was seriously cooked perfectly and seasoned nicely, wasn't lacking. Overall, this place is worth the hype and the quality is great. My husband said he would be thinking about the spaetzle afterwards haha

The salad was super refreshing and tasty. It had what seemed like crispy pizza dough bites instead of standard croutons, which was a simple but great touch. Unfortunately, the pizza was a letdown. It was pretty floppy and soggy (maybe from the mushrooms?), and the flavor overall lacked depth. It was a bit sour which I kind of like in a pizza, but not much substance to it. Undercarriage was okay in the non soggy parts. Service was friendly, and the food came out reasonably fast, though the overall vibe felt a bit rushed given how quickly they turn tables. The space itself is clean and well-kept. Great for a quick salad, but I've had better pizza.

A friendly staff member greeted me and quickly pointed out my order among the others on the takeout table. The restaurant itself was packed, and for good reason. I've been coming to Piccolo Forno for years, and everything I've ordered has delivered. It remains one of my go-to spots for excellent pizza in Pittsburgh.

I liked this place! Not all of the dishes and not the attitude of the server at times. I just…read moredidn't like that the server kept reminding us of a time placed on each table before it needed to turnover. I thought that was very rude and off putting. Parking is difficult in this area, so keep that in mind when reserving. However, I had a great time fellowshipping with friends. The place was lovely with laughter and what I ordered, I liked. For appetizers we ordered the peach bruschetta (special), the pistachio and pesto pizza without the pork, and the insalata salad. My favorite was the brussel sprouts and carrotts app. We also ordered the lasagna which was different. It had cinnamon and nutmeg. I was expecting classic lasagna. The seafood spaghetti also was not what I expected. The spice was nice, but I didn't like the texture of the pasta and the seafood was very fishy. The pesto pasta was good but needed salt. For dessert the boomba was the best! Tiramisu was mid. Again, cinnamon and a fresh flavor that didn't provide the traditional flavors I anticipated. The wine from the package store near by can be ordered and brought to your table. Paid for separately and via an app.
