If I had to choose one thing to eat for the rest of my life it would probably be pizza. But I'm not just talking about any pizza- it has to be good pizza! As an Italian, I would say that I have had (and made) my fair share of pizza and won't settle for any slice. It has to be crunchy and chewy with the perfect blend of sauce and cheese. I am very happy I came upon Bella Notte a few years ago since it has become one of my go-to places for pizza in the city.
There are three main things that I want and look for in a pizza- First and foremost, the dough has to be cooked thoroughly. I typically will order my pizza "well done" since I don't like it when the dough is mushy and not cooked all the way through (the middle part of the pizza seems to be where this problem happens). I don't have to say anything when ordering at Bella Notte since they cook it nice and evenly. I must admit that there was a time when their pizza was not cooked all the way through (they were training someone new in the kitchen) and they were more than happy to make a new one for me.
Next, comes the toppings. A good pizza has a nice cheese to toppings ratio which Bella Notte seems to have a good understanding of. With that being said, I am a big fan of their portobello pizza!! Last but not least, the crust should be the perfect mix of crunchy and chewy, which Bella Notte also seems to nail.
All in all, Bella Notte I would say is a good place to get Pizza in Pittsburgh. I am not saying that Bella Notte is perfect but they will definitely do their best to make their pizza perfect for you every time.
