cenci’s pizzeria & bar

food and drink. i have been to this bar several times, and both the service, food, and beer selection are very tasty and reasonably priced. the staff are helpful and polite. definitely worth a stop and try ! also specials on everything almost every day of the week.

awesome bar and restaurant great food good prices fun time and nice people shelly and bobby are the best

great pizza!. the title of this review say's it all. the pizza was excellent and the toppings were extremley fresh.

the location is the only weak link and that is just because coming south on 19 you have to cross two lanes of traffic. i can't wait to go back!

yum!!!. my husband & i ordered the chicago pizza with pepperoni and it was awesome! we've ordered from there twice since and i'm ordering again tonight! great food, great service!

1st time here. pretty much the same pizza as pizza roma. tastes almost identical. the breadsticks were different, they were very airy, like garlic bread- bread sticks. foodfather approved!

a great place if you wanna enjoy some really good pizza. loved their bread sticks as well, was very cheesy could feel the freshness last in my mouth for long. also i'd recommend to go for their wings, their sauces were exceptional. of course fries had to be good as well.

waitress was really quick, though i found the ambience to be a little noisy. wouldn't want it to be so loud for an italian place at least. rest i think it's a great place, definitely coming back for more!

i like this spot. it's the perfect place to come after work and get some good food and cold drinks. i thought the place was very spacious and really comfortable. the waitresses were very friendly and very pretty. as for the price, no complaints there neither. plus there's plenty of tvs to watch any sporting event you want. it's not like an over the top place to go eat and drink but to have a casual relaxing night, this is the perfect place to visit.

my coworkers and i order from here all the time. we ordered the white pizza a couple months ago and it was the best white pizza we've ever had! delivery is reasonably fast during the lunch hour and our orders have always been right. delivery driver is always friendly, which is a small thing, but it makes a difference. bacon cheese fries are amazing too!

please read online reviews with caution.. picture below is a more realistic representation of our restaurant. don't always believe what you read on the internet. the picture is our groupon customer reviews. most of them new customers.

thank you!. we just would like to thank everyone for the great comments! we hope you come back soon.

horrible. i waited 1 hours for my food when it arrived the bacon cheese burger had no cheese, the well done burger that i asked was medium cooked. for a first time ordering i will def not calling this place again.

great place for some beers and sicilian squares!. good beer selection at a reasonable price. solid variety of rotating beers on tap and a good bottle list as well. all of the bartenders and waitresses are pretty cool and usually have a good smile on. different special every day of the week. the sicilian squares are freakin' awesome and the wings are great too. go for half priced wing night and get your grub on!

to all the people that came here to complain... try hitting up the management team and explaining the problem first! this is a great family owned business and if you have a problem with the food or the service or whatever, let someone know and they will do their best to make it right. at least give them the opportunity to fix it before you come here and bi+ch about it!

they recently expanded and doubled the size of the place. bar is way bigger and there are plenty of places to sit down. there's enough tvs in this place that you can pretty much catch whatever sporting event is on from any seat in the house.

keep up the good work guys! livin' the high life.

reasonably priced gem in an otherwise overhyped/overpriced area of allegheny county. i have been going to censi's regularly for about a year now and have never been let down. their service is fantastic, even when the place is busy. the owner is approachable and usually on the floor overseeing various aspects of the restaurant. you can tell the staff genuinely care about their business. the waitresses have always been aware of the specials and can often recommend a great seasonal beer! their beer list is quite extensive and changes regularly. i love that they have a complete bottle and draft list available upon request. the beers are reasonably priced and they have various specials throughout the week. the food has always been great. i've tried many of the appetizers, my staples being the fried zucchini and puffs. the fried zucchini is always crisp and never to greasy. i believe their pizza to be excellent. the crust is thin but soft with a tangy, almost sweet sauce. the flavor is not overpowered by the cheese and every extra ingredient stands out on its own. i also enjoy the wings. they are cooked well, crispy, yet juicy. i prefer the hot. they have all the standard flavors but dare i say, could use some more, or maybe even a signature censi's flavor! if you’re on a budget, cenci's is on groupon and offers daily food specials. i personally take advantage of tuesdays pizza special, along with wednesdays wing special. the atmosphere is relaxed, the musics at a reasonable volume and there are plenty of tv to allow one to keep up with the sports of the day. i look forward to the renovations being completed and a return of the tap system. hopefully even more craft beers will be offered! keep up the good work! 8/10.
(side note: i wish their bar trivia actually started at the advertised time of 8 instead of anywhere between 8:30-9pm. makes it hard to plan for the evening when one works in the morning....not the fault of censi's....just sayin)

family owned and wonderful food. i love cenci's! my family and i have been ordering from here since it was a small pizza shop that only offered pick up and delivery. this family owned business makes you feel right at home. staff is very friendly and of course the food is delicious! my husband loves the steak onion ranch pizza and my kids love the sicilian pizza. really can't go wrong with anything you order. prices are very reasonable and they offer daily specials every day of the week. they are currently expanding so they must be doing something right! my family wishes you all the best!

we decided to go here for dinner because we had a gift certificate from restaurant dot com, which this business subscribed to, to attract new customers with a discount incentive. i purchased the certificate awhile ago, and wanted to make sure it was still valid at this establishment, so i checked the validity of the certificate on the restaurant dot com website. still valid. so i made plans to go there. we ordered dinner salads and pizza. total bill was $50. a little high, but the certificate was for $25 with $35 minimum purchase, which made it worth it.
when we got the bill, i handed the waitress our certificate, and she immediately stated they do not honor or accept these anymore. she told me there was a sign on the door, and was surprised we did not see it.
i was disappointed, due to ordering to meet minimum requirement, which now doesn't apply, and figured we must have missed something on the door and/or restaurant dot com website, notating validity of certificate. wrong on both accounts! we checked the restaurant for signs telling patrons that the certificates were no longer accepted, and the restaurant dot com website and there was no sign on any doors or windows, and no invalid certificate message on site. the waitress flat-out lied to us, and would not honor it. poor customer service!!!! we still tipped well, because she did a decent job of serving our table, and we are decent people, but we will never come back, and will tell friends and family not to come here either. i hope the owner sees this and makes it right. i will adjust my review accordingly if they fix this and honor the certificate i spent money on for their restaurant.

i recently went to cenci's pizza and the food was gross. the owner was a complete ass to me and my extended family. i live an hour away and we had to stop at mcdonalds to get dinner. never again
