Dining in Pittsburgh has always been somewhat of a challenge. After all, the Burgh is a foodie town, and there are so many enticing restaurants dotting the city and the suburbs that choosing where to eat can be tough. It’s just become a little tougher. Next time you’re craving a hearty Italian meal, consider making a reservation for Scarpino in Pittsburgh.
Nestled in the heart of the Cultural District, Scarpino offers a quaint dining experience and a menu brimming with authentic and scrumptious dishes.
Headed by Chef Scott Walton, the newest Italian restaurant in Pittsburgh promises something for everyone – whether you want a quick bite before a show or you’re up for a leisurely meal.
Sip a glass of house wine, beer, or a refreshing cocktail, such as the Limoncello Martini or the Peach Bellini, as you peruse the menu that’s packed with a whole lot of flavor.
If it’s a snack you're craving, try such tasty options as the zucchini fritters, the mozzarella, or the arancini, the latter of which comes with goat cheese, rosemary, and red sauce.
Small plates are on the menu, too, perfect for filling you up if you’re not too hungry. The calamari frito, the meatball, and the baked clams are among your choices.
Even the pickiest of eaters will find something that hits the spot – like pizza. You can’t go wrong with a classic Italian pizza – such as the margherita – can you?
Some of us, however, just can’t go to an Italian restaurant without having a pasta meal. How does the spaghetti or linguine sound? A ribeye steak might hit the spot, too, especially if you’re really hungry.
Browse the menu on the official website of Scarpino. Or, go here for Facebook.
