Helen opened a take out restaurant in Latrobe, PA a few years later where her popularity exploded. In 1977, Ernie Vallozzi moved his mothers location to Greensburg where it is still open and operating today. In 2012 Ernie's son Julian expanded the tradition in to downtown Pittsburgh. Vallozzi's Pittsburgh has recently joined a mere 1,200 restaurants worldwide as a recipient of the Wine Spectator Magazine's Best of Award of Excellence and is the only Italian restaurant in Pittsburgh to receive such an honor. We can host your intimate date, family dinner, business meetings, or larger parties in our banquet room. Or come enjoy a specially made cocktail in our bar area and a small bite.

Price: Moderate
• French American • Oakland
Booked 26 times today
Butterjoint is a comfy bar and restaurant located in North Oakland. Our welcoming and eclectic atmosphere is appropriate for almost any occasion - whether it be meeting a friend for a drink, celebrating an important event, or relaxing after work. Our menu is a mixture of familiar Pittsburgh foods (think pierogies, hamburgers, French fries) and French bistro classics (beef tartare, raclette, mussels), and seasonal classics that come and go throughout the year. We put care into our vegetarian dishes too, including making our own tempeh, falafel, and veggie patties from scratch. Menu items change frequently--usually every day--and reflect many long-standing relationships we have with farms and breweries in our region. In addition to reservations, we also have a thirty seat bar that is first come, first serve. We don’t know exactly how old the bar is, but it’s at least seventy years old (probably older) and very cozy. Our friendly bartenders are here to make something you like.

    We celebrated Mother’s Day a day early and had a lovely dinner. Amber was our server and she was fantastic! The menu is not extensive but it gives everyone a choice and we all made different selections and we’re all pleased. I was treated to Mother’s Day sangria that was complementary, and I believe mine was Blackberry and it was delicious. We had the Tuscan chicken dish, the ribeye, special bison, and I had the Chilean Seabass. It is a higher price point so you should prepare for that. But the chef and his team have done a wonderful job with the menu and I would recommend this restaurant. My teenage daughter was even impressed with the mocktail that the bartender prepared. Dessert was chocolate mousse and crème brûlée, both delicious. You should definitely check this restaurant out. It’s very cool to see all the barrels in the background of the restaurant. They’ve done a very nice job with the decor as well.

    Met old friends for dinner...great atmosphere, service was exceptional, our waitress was so friendly and knowledgeable (I believe her first day with your group). She actually remade our french martini correctly. It was amazing. Wine selection was top notch. And that Menu!!! My goodness...can't get much better. Small menu's are my thing. We each had something different and they were all phenomenal.
