Pizzaiolo Primo - Pittsburgh

The waitress was excellent. She was aware of my food allergy in advance and provided helpful recommendations for my meal choices. The food was delicious! The restaurant is conveniently located for anyone attending a show in the Pittsburgh theater district.

This is one of our go-to restaurants. However, the food disappointed us this time. The fettuccine was dry, and we had trouble getting our server's attention for water or other requests. We even had to ask for bread halfway through our meal. Overall, this visit did not live up to the wonderful experiences we have had here in the past.

Fantastic New Years Eve dinner. It was busy, loud but not too loud, very fun, cozy atmosphere. The fried zucchini appetizer was one of the best we've had, the branzino fettuccine alfredo (the extra sausage was amazing) were perfect. Our server was adorable loved her. So glad we ended the year with Pizzaiolo Primo!

Overall it was an okay experience. The server was friendly and helpful. The bartender was an absolute train wreck. They were out of a lot of bar and food items. The male manager did nothing to help the guests or staff. He stood behind the bar gossiping with the terrible bartender. The meatballs seemed to be pre-made, frozen out of the bag. They ran out of bread. The pasta was decent but bland. The pizza was phenomenal. For the quality of food, service and ambience, it wasn’t worth $200+ for two people. Based on this visit, I would not recommend and will not return.

So great that I’m hoping to bring many people there.
