Good food, wine list, and beverages. Pretty good service although we received our complimentary bread service with no EVO or butter and we weren’t told about some of the specials until after we’ve looked over the menu. The space/decor is very bland and can use some work. Nice spot for an Italian cuisine date night but not my first choice in Pittsburgh.

We've consistently come to Senti because it is always good and still continues to impress. My wife and I had an excellent four course meal this time to celebrate valentines day and every course was great. The server was friendly and informative. He timed everything out perfectly. The steak was one of the best steaks I've had at a restaurant in a long time. Seriously excellent.

Very peaceful, friendly, beautiful space accompanied by delicious complex yet simple food. Our service/waiter was fabulous and accommodated all our requests. This was a great way to celebrate a 96th birthday! (father-in-law). Can't wait to go again!

Yet another consistently good dinner last night at Senti. For appetizers we shared the fried artichokes and the eggplant voletini. For entreés we had the porcini ricotta agnolotti and the featured duck leg. Every bite was delicious. We ended with the apple tart! As I said to Franco on our way out...."Always impressed, and never disappointed"

Chef Antonio made some great changes to the Senti menu. The Eggplant Involtini is delicious--very creamy lemon ricotta filling and fresh tomato sauce. I loved the Agnolotti with porcini mushroom and ricotta filling. My husband loved the Fettucine with Wild Boar Ragu and a light tomato sauce. We enjoyed the Almond Oil cake with cherries and fresh whipped cream which was the perfect dolci, We loved having dinner at the bar with Holly who always does her magic with our drink service.

Just like being in Italy. The quality of food and choice of wines 🍷 was incredible. The tiramisu was the best I've had. Want a European meal experience; this is the place to dine.
