FOOD!

Pittsburgh is a foodie city! Growing from a rich and diverse food the city’s restaurant industry has kicked into a new level over the past few years bringing in more tastes and dining experiences! The following lists is only a small sample of what the city offers, I highly recommend you take a look at the places listed and also wander around the neighborhoods yourself and find a new place to add to this list!

Pizza! Whether you are looking for that greasy, delicious pizza or one that has more flavor and less regret we have you covered!

o Caliente Pizza & Draft House- 4624 Liberty Ave, Pittsburgh PA 15224 – 412-682-1414 Home to the 2016, 2017, and 2018 World Pizza Champions! Caliente’s has four locations in the Pittsburgh area.

The crust is thin and crunchy, but light and delicious! The restaurant is small and seating is limited, so be prepared to wait if going on a weekend evening. There are plenty of bars near the restaurant so I recommend putting your name on the wait and grabbing a cocktail nearby. Be aware, it is BYOB but luckily just across the street is a Wine’s and Spirits so you can grab a bottle of wine to pair with the pizza! o Mercurio’s- 5523 Walnut St, Pittsburgh PA 15232 – 412-621-6220 Mercurio’s is a family-owned Italian eatery located in Shadyside.
