Reviews for Pizzaiolo Primo in Pittsburgh, PA
We had the fried calamari which was good but should have been cooked a little bit more. We also had pepperoni pizza the only... problem was and it happens that there was a hair in the calamari but I didn't look at it that close that they said it was amussel that it was from. On the other hand the pepperoni pizza was good in flavor quite expensive for what you got and webrought two pieces home and my son found a hair in the one of the slices. I doubt we would go back and if this is part of theones from Warrendale and other places probably wouldn't do them as well Read more
Small place with a great vibe and amazing food and drinks. Especially Landon's Thorogood Old fashioned was awesome with... smokiness to it. The upstairs bar is the place to sit and enjoy. Drinks can get a bit expensive. But it's definitely worth atry. Read more
Very nice staff, atmosphere and food presentation. However the food tasted very mediocre, absolutely nothing special about... it. Our Chicken Parmigiana was 6/10. The Chicken scarp jello was a 1/10, extremely over cooked. It tasted more like rubber thanchicken. Read more
This is by far the absolute best pizza I've EVER had. Absolutely delicious. My wife and I remember going here seven years ago... and they are just as amazing now as they were then. If it's in the evening you may want to set reservations because they fill upquick. Read more
Tried this place at the end of April. The restaurant is lovely, the location is great, but I found the food average. The wood... fired pizza disappointed because. the crust was too thick, I think. It didn't get the lovely crispy crust that you typicallyfind in a wood-fire baked pizza. I wanted to try handmade pasta, as that was one of the things noted on their menu, only to findthat not all the pastas are handmade. Disappointing. I found OUR server attentive, but I noticed a lot of the staff seemed to begathered around the bar, rather than dealing with customers. It was off hours, we had an early dinner, but I never find itimpressive to find the hostess, bartender and other servers hanging out at the bar..... Read more
Came to Pittsburgh for a 2 night stay largely to watch the Penguins play the blue jackets and a little guys road trip. I did my... homework in trying to find as close as you can to a great Italian pizza coming from Toronto it?s fairly easy to find however inPittsburgh we were unsure. Upon entering this place, I was pleasantly surprised to see an Italian pizza oven. So I went aheadand order a margarita pizza which is truly the only way to gage how good a pizza is. Out of the pizza places I ate in during mystay this was by far the best however when comparing to some places in Toronto and in Italy, it still has a way to go. Iappreciate the double zero flour as once you eat this you aren?t disgustingly full. The hostess and waitress were both attentiveand helpful. If I found myself in Pittsburgh again and didn?t want a hole in the wall pizza, I would come back Read more
I don?t usually write reviews, but I have to share this. Firstly, the service is amazing. They were so sweet to us from the... moment we walked through the door, and the wait time was decent. And the FOOD!!! Absolutely delicious. We dropped by for a quickmeal without worrying much about the quality, but it ended up being amazing. This is also such a cute place, I love theinterior:) Read more
I wasn't super impressed. My guest shared that this was their favorite Italian place in Pittsburgh and they're Italian, however... it wasn't to write home about. Sauce was good, comparable to NY sauce but pasta wasn't just al dente, it was extremely al dentewhich made it hard to eat and I didn't finish it. Chicken parm was good by itself. Caesar salad was good but average. Calamaricould've been crisper. It was good but not enough to add it to my "must return to" list for Pittsburgh. Read more
