Italian restaurants, sub shops, calzone counters and Italian delis sit next to the pizzerias on this site because most of them bake pizza too, often from the same dough. Full-service Italian restaurants take reservations for dinner, add a tip line for table service (15-20% is customary) and usually run a cheaper lunch menu on weekdays. Sub and sandwich shops are counter-order and quick, with sizes by the inch or in half and whole lengths. Calzones and strombolis are priced like a medium pizza and are large enough to share. Italian delis and bakeries sell by weight and by the piece, and many close mid-afternoon.

Hours are published for 2 days a week. On most of those days it is open 11 AM–10 PM. Hours in the United States do change around federal holidays and long weekends, so a quick call before a special trip is sensible. The listed phone number is (412) 575-5858. Many businesses also reply to text messages on the same number if it is a cell phone. Its website is marketsquare.pizzaioloprimo.com, where you may find menus, price lists or booking options.

On Google it holds a rating of 4.3 out of 5 from 1,068 reviews, which is a strong result for an italian restaurant in Pittsburgh and suggests consistent service.

Pittsburgh is in Pennsylvania, in the Northeast, where four distinct seasons shape local life: hot humid summers, snowy winters that can close businesses for a day, and a dense pattern of towns where walking, transit and street parking all matter. US addresses list the street number and name, then the city, state abbreviation and ZIP code, and Pittsburgh follows the same pattern; a suite or apartment number such as Ste 200 refers to a unit inside the building. The map link on this page shows the exact spot.

The place is clean, the service is ok…. The food is bad… I had a Diavola pizza and it was like eating a piece of paper… zero taste…the dough had a weird texture and I think it’s the worst pizza I have ever tried in Pittsburgh…. I’m giving them 3 starts because the Cesar salad saved the night…

Ate here the weekend of the nfl draft. My son had a chicken Ceaser that was good and I had fish that was amazing. It was one of the best prepared fish meals I've had. It was severed with broccolini. My server wasn't the best (bit of an attitude) but other servers picked up the slack and were really helpful and friendly. The tiramisu was really good as well.

I enjoyed the pizza here and you could definitely say it made with fresh ingredients, however I’d say it’s a little overpriced in my option. We shared a pizza; and with two drinks the bill including tip was over $60. Cocktails in my opinion were just alright or maybe I didn’t choose a good one but they were not really anything exciting on their menu. Very good service tho and nothing could be better. We didn’t have reservations and could seat at the bar but it’s get full quickly so I recommend to make a reservation!

Delicious! Walked in during a packed lunch and the greeting was a little slow, but once we got seated upstairs? Impeccable from there. The Stracciatella Salsiccia pizza was wood-fired perfection. Charred on the bottom, pillowy edges, creamy stracciatella, well-seasoned sausage with just a hint of heat, and hot honey that surprised you on every other bite. Came to the table hot and everything worked together beautifully. Vodka martini was cold and dry with ice crystals at the top. Kettle One, extra olives stuffed with cheese. Done correctly. The berry cheesecake was homemade and you could tell. Light, almost crumbly, with fresh berry compote on top. Divine. Service after seating was excellent. Cup never empty, pacing was smooth, server was warm and attentive. Came with my son. He got a Coke in a glass bottle and was thrilled. We shared the pizza and dessert and left very satisfied. This is now my go-to spot for bringing people into town. When you need a guaranteed win in Market Square, this is it. 10/10.

Really cool place in a prime location. Our waitress was extremely nice and the atmosphere here was very comfortable. Our table shared apps like the arancini, zucchini fritti, and calamari. All very good except the calamari, it was just OK. Not much flavor and there were several tough pieces. I ordered the calabrese pizza which had really good flavor. However, the dough was pretty thick and chewy. I confirmed with the waitress if it was neopolitan style and she said yes - but it was poorly executed. I tried someone else’s ravioli, and it was pretty blah. Texture could’ve improved. The flavor of the sauces were lacking. The wine we shared at the table was excellent though. I believe it was the Chianti.
