Gianna Vias Restaurant Bar - Pittsburgh

The first time here. we had the most beautiful server. Portobello sandwich needs more taste. very bland. not very good. maybe a small marinade. high-time soup was good. I liked the fresh spinach leaves. nice touch. the filled banan peppers were very good and I liked the chicken parm

This was the first time my Husband andI had been there. We had read the reviews and heard from word of mouth from others, so decided to give it a try. We were seated right away, very nice given menus and the drinks list. We ordered drinks, debris in the wine glass This was a Tuesday evening, after 5:00. Drinks were slow to arrive. We ordered Caesar salad, and Cream of Mushroom Soup. Took a long time for those to arrive. Soup too thick, Caesar salad arrived, was warm, and tomatoes on Caesar salad, along with rye croutons cold food cold plates . Entrees arrived, they were fine, Veal and peppers had some fat, gristle , brown sauce lacking some flavor. Hot food Hot plates

We were looking for a place to celebrate my husband's 75th birthday. We would have 15 people in attendance. We called Gianna Via and they were happy to oblige. We had a great time at the restaurant. Our server went above and beyond with service. Their were multiple entrees ordered and all came within a reasonable amount and as ordered. The food was good. We were never rushed to be done. We were allowed to bring in a cake and balloons. We were provided plates to service it. and the price was reasonable for what we ordered besides the entrees we also had appetizers!

Our server, Jax, was amazing!! She said it was her first day serving and she seemed like a pro who served for years! The food was awesome, my grandchildren pretty much cleaned their plates! I highly recommend this restaurant especially for families!!

Service was a little slow probably the staffing issue going on , but otherwise good Italian food. The cocktail shrimp were huge
