   We have loved dining at Pino's for almost 20 years. It's great to introduce our friends whenever possible who end up loving the food and charm as much as we do. The drinks, food, and service were all perfect. Our entire party of 8 had a wonderful evening.

   A great dinner at Pino's. We had the Branzino and Carbonara. Shared a delicious Sicilian Octopus and the angel food cake dessert. All were wonderful.

   Pino’s is trendy warm and wonderful. Hustle and bustle but not intrusive or too loud. We were thrilled to have Alessandra as our server excellence! She was attentive and of course friendly and described every entree with true culinary expertise. She knew we had a concert to go to so made sure she was on point. Service was great and food arrived hot and timely. Not too fast but just right! The menu has something for everyone but tonight was a pasta night for us! To start, our martinis were chilled and topped to perfection. The Tuscan salad was fresh and delish. The bolognese pasta was excellent, the pasta Alla Norma with sautéed eggplant was tasty and enjoyed, and the ricotta gnoccetti with butternut squash was savory and light. Leftovers for everyone to be enjoyed Sunday. A true delight from start to finish! Can’t wait to go back!

   Pino’s was a very pleasant surprise. We had a couple of appetizers, 4 different entrees, and a shared dessert. All were amazing! This quaint place is definitely worth checking out.

   Great food and amazing waitstaff. Slightly salty entrees and the chicken cacciatore was a little under flavored but overall we had an amazing meal. We've been going to Pino's for 2 years now and it's where we take all our visitors!

   expensive wine and marginal food with ok service. Two different pasta dishes looking like the same pasta was used in both so they looked and tasted the same. Small wine pours overpriced

   Excellent overall experience! Delicious food and great service. Nice bistro feel. Maybe a bit expensive but I think almost all restaurants are overpriced these days. Highly recommended.

   Always outstanding across the board. The service, the drinks, the wine selection, and the amazing food—all of it is tremendous. The winter specials are great this year. Totally unique. However, I almost always get the bolognese or the pork chop… I’m boring. But you can’t beat perfection. Pino’s is a must try. Chef is an absolute gem.

    Amazing Amazing Amazing Even after we lost power for approximately 45 mins, the staff kept everyone served. This hole in the wall, little restaurant is fun, great food, great staff and one of our favorites in the Pgh area.
