The One Italian Restaurant In Pittsburgh With Pasta As Good As Grandma’s

Grandmas just have a special touch. Whatever they cook or bake just tastes soooo good. Maybe it's the years of experience. Or, perhaps it's the love with which the food is made. Whatever it is, nothing compares to grandma's cooking. But, if you want homemade pasta that's just as good as grandma's, you just might have found it at this quaint Italian restaurant in Pittsburgh.

Sat on a corner in the charming neighborhood of Lawrenceville, the Tuscan Italian restaurant Piccolo Forno promises a cozy atmosphere and unforgettable homemade pasta.

Bring your own beer (BYOB) to the authentic Italian eatery that's beckoned diners since it first opened its doors in 2005. Outdoor seating is available when the weather permits.

Sip a glass of your favorite wine or beer as you peruse the generous menu that features....

Only the freshest pasta. No matter what dish you order, if it has pasta, you know that pasta has been handmade right in the kitchen.

Popular Piccolo Forno pasta dishes include Tuscan lasagna, spaghetti with salmon, spinach-filled ravioli, and tortellini.

Pair your pasta with homemade panini. The lucchese panini, for example, features prosciutto, fresh mozzarella, pesto, and roasted peppers on homemade focaccia bread.

If you're in the mood for pizza, Piccolo Forno's got you covered, too. The wood-fired pizza is available in a variety of options, such as margherita, piccante, and prosciutto e rucola.

Of course, there's always room for dessert and Piccolo Forno delivers with its sorbet, panna cotta, and tiramisu.

Sit down to a meal just like Grandma used to make at Piccolo Forno Tuesday through Thursday from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. and Friday and Saturday from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m.
