Re: the Prima Donna. Am I missing something. Was there first time about two months ago. Was OK but not worth all the press it has been getting in this news group. As far as Italian restaurants in Pgh go there are alot as good and more alot better. Don't get me wrong, was fine but not exceptional. What am I missing. Another restaurant that has left me disappointed after hearing much about it is the Kandel Keller in McMurray. Any other thoughts?

Prima Donna
good Italian around here: Bravo, up in the north hills off of McNightmare Rd.. Can be a little expensive, but portions are usually huge and very, very tasty.
I agree, Davio is good. Porta Bella is also good. There is a great one in Traffard, I think it's name is Johnny's but not sure. Good greens and beans appetizer. I'll think of others Al Daniel P. wrote: > Prima Donna - Bad > Davio - Very Good > > Steve Z. wrote in message ... > >I would love to hear suggestions for absolutely best Italian restaurants > >in Pittsburgh.

It's not an Italian place, per se, but Roxies Cafe in the South Hills Village Mall has marinara sauce to die for, serves fresh crusty bread with pepper and olive oil, and will bring you out some of their balsamic vinegarette dressing to dip the bread in if asked. toodles, gretchen
