Best Casual Restaurants in Waterfront

Seated in the Emperor room. Alla Famiglia is more expensive than many restaurants we’ve tried in the Pittsburgh area. However, the quantity and quality of the food make it an outstanding value. This was our first and certainly won’t be our last dinner here!

Food was phenomenal and the service was great! Get the gnocchi with marinara or pesto. So so so good!

This was our second visit in 2 weeks. Food and service are excellent.

It’s unfortunate that my date and I only have two mouths and two stomachs total between us, because I absolutely wouldn’t feel bad about ordering the entire menu in one sitting. Well, my wallet might. We did order a lot, though, and we ended up closing down the place. The ambience was sexy and upbeat (not the drowsy kind of sexy, you know what I mean). It paired perfectly with the cocktails and a bottle of sake, and the staff were super stoked to give recommendations based on what we were feeling. The food came out as it was prepared, plated to perfection and ready to share. Did we order too much? I mean, it looked like it, but we ate every crumb. I’d have licked the plate if I didn’t like my outfit so much. And like I said, we closed down the place but never felt like we were being annoying or rushed out. Next time I come back, I’m ordering the rest of the menu.

Fresh, flavorful and absolutely delicious food! Great local draft beer, cocktail and mock-tail options.
