Best Restaurants for Special Occasions in South Hills

Good food and service. Shanghai prep for fish and scallops wasa great choice.

Overalll it was a nice Valentine’s Day dinner. We decided to go early to beat the crowd but still seemed to have a long wait to get drinks and our order taken. We were there for 2 hours. Food was really good. Our Filets were over salted so we ended up boxing them up and brining home.

Always an excellent experience with excellent service. We shared the beet salad and I can't believe that I thought that it needed more arugula (not a super fan of arugula) but there was generous portions of the cheese and the delicious candied walnuts. I had the filet which was great with ample portions. My partner had the crab cakes which were above average (but we are crab cake snobs as my family was from the Eastern Shore of MD (home of the blue crab) as we prefer them broiled rather than fried. The Black Manhattan was tasty but I have to remember to order it straight up because it came on a pile of ice which I had to dig out. It was a Valentine's Day celebration and a nice night.

Our first experience at Arlecchino’s was even better than we anticipated. Our server, Skye, was outstanding! She took a little time to give us a menu tour and also was able to answer our questions and make great recommendations. We decided to get one of each for the salad and pasta courses and both options for each were delicious. The cacio e pepe prepared at the table in the Romano cheese wheel was out of this world! It’s important to know that this is NOT ALFREDO. It’s way better! The chicken Monzu was also delicious and the Jester prepared veal chop was insanely huge and amazing. We also got the raspberry almond tiramisu for dessert and it was delicious as well. We really enjoyed our first experience and can’t wait to go back again.

This is a great place for a casual dinner with friends. The menu has a great variety and everything is very good. Our waiter was Aaron, and he was very alert and attentive. He knew all about the menu and was easily able to answer our questions. We didn’t have to ask for anything twice, he was ‘on the ball’.
