" Mercurio’s Shadyside is a small slice of Italy in Pittsburgh. Every time I visit, I fall in love with their pizza all over again. The crust is perfectly thin and the toppings are balanced beautifully. Although the service can vary depending on how busy it is, the staff tries their best to keep the energy high. Their gelato is a show-stopper as well, I can't resist trying new flavors every time! Can’t wait to come back! " (*Curated Review*)

" The minute we walked into Mercurio's, we felt transported to Italy! The ambiance was cozy, and we knew we were about to enjoy something special. The staff greeted us warmly and were very friendly throughout our meal. We started off with the burrata which melted in our mouths. The true star, however, was the pizza! The crust was perfectly charred, with just the right amount of toppings. Our dessert - the gelato - was a fantastic way to end the meal. We left happy and full, ready to return soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I'm a bit torn about this place. The pizza was good, with an authentic taste, but I found the service a little lacking during peak times. We waited longer than expected for our food, despite it being busy. The gelato was fantastic, however, and I really enjoyed the various flavors. I think I'll come back but will try during a less crowded time. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a delightful surprise! Mercurio's has some incredible pizza options. I tried their special of the month and was absolutely wowed by the combination of flavors. The service was prompt and cheerful, while the place had a lovely Italian vibe. I can't forget to mention the gelato! If you have room after your meal, it's a must-try. Can't recommend this spot enough! " (*Curated Review*)

" Visiting this place was an experience we’re glad to have had. The pizza dough had an exceptional texture, and the sauce tasted incredibly fresh. We went for a variety of pizzas including a vegetarian option which my friend loved. The gelato was equally delightful and the perfect way to satisfy our sweet tooth. The only downside was the wait time, as it gets busy during dinner hours. Still, I would highly recommend this gem in Shadyside. " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely loved my time at Mercurio's! The pizza was outstanding, especially the unique toppings they have. It’s clear they put a lot of love into their food. The staff was warm and welcoming, which made the experience feel like you were having dinner at a friend's house. Post-pizza, the gelato selection was a delightful challenge in choosing my favorite flavor. Honestly, this place is a must-visit for pizza lovers! " (*Curated Review*)

" I ordered takeout from Mercurio's and was disappointed. The pizza was lackluster, and all the deliciousness I expected just didn’t come through. Unfortunately, the cheese didn’t melt well during transit, which made for a poor experience. I must say the gelato was still good, but for the price, I expected more from the pizza itself. I think dining in might have been a better option for a proper taste of what they offer. " (*Curated Review*)
