" I finally visited Mercurio's and they did not disappoint. Authentic Italian pizza is hard to come by but this place nails it. The ingredients taste fresh, and the preparation shows in each bite. Getting seated was smooth, and the gelato selection post-meal is a perfect touch. Only issue was the somewhat noisy atmosphere, as the place filled up quickly, but it adds to the vibrant experience. Parking was limited, so plan ahead. Overall, a fantastic dining destination. " (*Curated Review*)

" Mercurio's has instantly become our favorite pizza place in Pittsburgh. Last weekend, we ordered a Diavola pizza, and let me tell you, it was incredible! The perfect balance of spicy and savory, and the crust was as light as air. On top of that, the gelato afterward was the best we've ever had - we tried the salted caramel and it was divine. The servers were attentive, and even though it was busy, we felt well taken care of. Can't wait to come back! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was really looking forward to trying the pizza at Mercurio’s, especially after hearing several good reviews about it. I found the crust delightful, although the toppings could have been a bit more plentiful for my taste. The atmosphere was lively and pleasant, making it a great spot to enjoy dinner with friends. In fact, their gelato was so good we just had to order a second round! I think I would love to come back to try their special pizzas next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" This was an excellent find in Pittsburgh! I absolutely loved the pizza we ordered, which was cooked to perfection with fresh ingredients. The staff was friendly, but there was a bit of a wait for a table. Once seated, the service improved significantly, and we enjoyed trying different gelato flavors afterward. Will definitely return for another pizza night! " (*Curated Review*)

" Great pizza with character! The atmosphere is lively, with patrons enjoying their meals. The gelato was stellar and complemented the pizza nicely. Although our server was friendly, we had to ask for a couple of things twice - that could be improved. Still, I’d say give it a try if you are in Pittsburgh! " (*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*)
