- BBarbGoldPittsburgh / Western PA •17 reviews5.0Dined 6 days agoWe came to celebrate our 47th wedding anniversary and Alla Famiglia did not disappoint! We chose a 4:30 reservation which was perfect because we had the Trento room to ourselves until we were nearly done. Staff was attentive, friendly, yet professional. We decided to share several appetizers, salad and pasta in lieu of a main entree. Oysters on the half shell, mussels in spicy tomato sauce and ceviche plus Caesar salad and pasta. I ordered incorrectly for the pasta. We wanted the loccatelli cheese sauce that they make with hot cream and the pasta in the cheese wheel - which the waiter quickly corrected. My husband is not a pasta fan but he is hooked on this dish 😋😋😋 All was good and tasty and filling! We took lots home to save for another day. We finished off with strawberry rhubarb cheesecake- delicious! Of course we had a glass of wine with dinner and I had a coffee with drambui, one of my favorites! Restaurant also treated us to their anniversary special of champagne and cannolis! Great evening! Will be back 😁More infoAlla Famiglia$$$$• Italian• South Side•4.8
- KKeithGoldPittsburgh / Western PA •4 reviews5.0Dined 7 days agoExcellent birthday dinner with my fiancée. Julia was the perfect waitress. Explained exactly how to order for meals that are served family style. We shared the lasagna rotolo, zucchini side dish, and a chopped salad. We had wine that she helped pick out for us. We were too full for dessert, so we took a Tiramisu home that was excellent. Loved the location and free on street parking being that it was Memorial Day.More infoAlta Via - Market Square$$$$• Italian• Downtown•4.7
