Il Pizzaiolo

"Food was very good but, 2 of the people at our table’s food arrived cold:/ I ordered the legendary margarita pizza which was incredibly delicious & very filling. It’s expensive at $22 but worth it. I also ordered the Misticanza salad which was huge & so fresh with their own vingerette dressing. Others at the table got rigatoni, chicken parm & lasagna. 2 of us loved it, the other 2 said it was just ok. I personally love their sauce so you can’t go wrong with any of the pasta dishes. It’s cooked al dente & it’s very filling. The service was excellent and our waitress went above & beyond but all in all, it was bad dining experience for a special night out. The restaurant is extremely small & crowded and the tables are also small (given the amount of food we ordered) and right next to each other- so close that every time a waiter walked passed me, they tripped over the leg of my chair! But the worst part is, it’s incredibly loud in there. The acoustics in the room are terrible! It was nearly impossible to carry on a conversation across the table as no one could hear one another- after a while I quit talking as I was so tired of repeating myself:/ I’m not sure if I’ll go back any time soon but it’s definitely not an intimate dining experience, it’s a loud, crowded tiny space with really good food- I just like to be able to carry on a conversation while dining out, and not hear the tables next to me and their conversation:/"

"We thought this was just a random small pizza joint but boy were we wrong! We found them because we wanted brick oven pizza but were so surprised to see how big this place was! It was luckily a warm day so we ate outside in the most romantic corner. We ordered the pizza bread to start and then got the NY pizza. I also had a Bellini and I can't remember the name of it but the lemon dessert is phenomenal. Everything was so delicious and the staff are super friendly and helpful as well. I definitely want to go back and check out the one bar and eat outside again!"

"one of the best Margherita pizzas I’ve had outside of Italy. definitely prefer the Mt Lebo location over the one downtown. salads, pastas, meatballs, cocktails I’ve had have all been great."

"Nice Italian pizzeria nestled in the quaint town of Mt Lebanon. Sitting outside on the patio takes one who loves Italy, back to an Italian eatery . Pizza is amazing , thin crust is perfection . Salads are very tasty and the bread is oh so good ."

"The good: the food. The pasta dishes are authentic and were delicious and prepared well. The portions are generous. The pizza is also terrific if you love wood fired oven baked Neapolitan style. I would opt for a pasta dish next time. The not so great: wait staff was average. The restaurant is very loud and scanty decorated. So if you’re in for great food, this is a great place to eat!"
