A must-do in the Strip Distrcit. Locally known as Penn Mac. Fine Italian grocery with 400 cheeses . Meet "Dear Heart ," a local celeb--she's the cheese monger & calls everyone she waits on dear heart .
Great service,food and decent prices. We chose this spot to celebrate my 24th birthday. Asked the sever what his favorite thing to eat was and he went over it with us. He was very attentive & genuine.
If you're shopping in the Strip you should stop by an sample some gourmet cheese at our cheese counter , Dear Heart would love to help you pick the perfect cheese for any dish or meal.
The fresh-made egg pasta , available at check-out, is the greatest pasta I've ever had. Cheese selection is amazing too.
If you can make it here on a weekday or just before they close, it is much less crowded . Great spot to get Italian groceries in Pittsburgh.
Try our homemade Penn Mac sauces, all of which are perfect for pasta and pizza dinners . Each contains healthy ingredients like extra virgin olive oil , garlic , fresh vegetables and great herbs.
I made a trip from Youngstown 2 weeks in a row to stock up my kitchen. The extra sharp provolone from this place is amazing, as is their NY pastrami .
Run by the Sunseri brothers, this is a prime retail store offering Italian specialties . On Saturdays, the line snakes around its shelves, stocked with tomatoes , pasta & all kinds of Italian products .
Pick up some Le Pizzelle Cafe Pizzelles. So many great flavors. Try the anise or lemon !
Service is excellent - very helpful. Imported meats & cheeses are the best in town . Fire roasted tomatoes are to die for.
If you are a foodie, discuss cheese with the cheese mongers . They have turned me onto some seriously good stuff!
We get very busy during the weekends, stop by during the week for shorter lines and quicker service. This is probably the best way to avoid the crowds.
