Pastoli's Pizza, Pasta & Paisans

A New Yorker walks into a Pittsburgh Pizza shop.

Pittsburgh is a little light on vegan restaurants so I opted for a pizza place with vegan options and I must say, I was very impressed.

Ordered a medium pizza with banana peppers, a chick'n parm hoagie and a buffalo chicken wedgie, which was described as an un-enclosed calzone with less cheese so you won't hate yourself for eating the whole thing.

Everything was really good (the Buffalo wedgie could've benefitted from some kind of ranch sauce to counteract the heat) and the pizza could hold up even in NY. Looking forward to the leftover slices on the way home.

Tables are a bit tight. We took a stroller and it was hard to find a place for it. The Buffalo was not as flavorful as I would have liked but we had another pizza akin to the meat lovers that was 10/10. I really like their red sauce. It's not too sweet.

Pastolis is always good, good food, good people, good music, good atmosphere. Ideally when I die and go to heaven Pastolis will also be there.

Solid pizza place with a lot of portions for people on certain diets (vegan, gluten free, etc). Prices for some items are a little expensive and portions are just okay, but quality seems relatively high. I ordered the regular cheese pizza and caramel cinnamon puffs for dessert.

The pizza was pretty standard. I thought the crust was on the thicker side, while I prefer it thinner, but it wasn't bad. Nice crispness on the edges but not so much in the middle. Adequate amount of cheese, and even distribution. Good amount of lightly sweet sauce.

I really liked their homemade ranch, and I think it's definitely worth getting on the side. It's less than a dollar extra for a nice little cup. Its super creamy and flavorful, and goes really well with the pizza crust.

The cinnamon puffs were quite good. They are essentially little pieces of fried dough with a cinnamon sugar dusting. Good portion for the price. The caramel was a little liquidy but still good. Nice dessert.

All in all, this is a solid place for pizza and other similar items. It is especially good if you are a vegan or follow a gluten-free diet. I would definitely recommend trying their ranch regardless of what you order as your entree.

Always fresh, great options, so yummy!
recommend for catering or a pizza night at home!

I can't say enough about this family owned small business that my son and I popped into randomly. The staff are just delightful providing suggestions and checking on you. The decor has a nice at home feel with even couches to have your meal watching the tv which is where we watched the game! The prices are very good and food mouthwatering. There are six packs and single beers to purchase with a huge variety to select.

My son had the chicken fingers and fries while I had the spinach and feta rolls (my son hates veggies and stole some of mine). Highly recommend!

We like trying new pizza places, and Pastoli's did not disappoint! We ordered a pizza and some cheese fries online. Our food was ready for pickup within 25 minutes, which I thought was reasonable. The pie had a good ratio of cheese, sauce, and toppings. Another thing I that I thought was unique about Pastoli's is that they have a gluten free and vegan menu, which I think is great!
When I went inside to pick up my order, the staff was very kind and helpful. I would definitely order from here again!

My wife is Gluten Free and they have a dedicated area to prep food. The hoagies are great and she loves them! The people are really great and helpful. It is a chill atmosphere with big couches and lots of tv's!

I love this pizza place so much. The food is delicious and the staff are incredibly friendly and patient. I had a mixup happen once and the person at the register was very patient. I love the vibes too, the couch near the tv is my favorite spot. it's so comfy :)

Food is good but hours of service are a comically short. They open super late and close super early. Environment is nice enough
