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 thecheeseand 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)
