    Almond Croissant
    Nicole J.

    Quick service and great people always during my stops at pane e pronto. Perfect for on the go sandwiches, coffee, premade lasagna, sauce, bakery items and so much more. Definitely a great place to stop into when in the strip district!

    Carrot Pt Panini VEGAN - delicious grab and go sandwich
    Lindsey C.

    Pane è Pronto is a fantastic Italian takeout spot from the owners of DiAnoia's Eatery & Pizzeria Davide, both located a few blocks down the street. Don't be fooled by it's little size, this place has SO much to offer, including 8 types of house-baked breads and homemade ready-made dishes to go, including sandwhiches, soups, dips, spreads, sauces, fresh pasta, etc. Everything they make is incredibly delicious - and they have tons of vegan options as well. Great spot to pick up a ready-made lunch and grab some fresh pasta and bread to cook for up dinner. They also offer catering as well. Truly delectable, everything the put out is 10/10!

    Variety of baked goods on display

    Located a block from its owners other establishments DiAnoia's Eatery and Pizzeria Davide, Pane è Pronto's is their Italian food market. Features of the market include fresh bread, ready-made meals to take home (including three cheese lasagna), sandwiches, bakery items, dry and fresh pasta, pints of their marinara or pesto sauce, and more in the fridge and freezer coolers. The food hot bar seen in older reviews photos has apparently been replaced with a cooler display case. Service was helpful and friendly. Note: They offer online ordering in advance and catering. This was my first visit and will not be the last!

    Chocolate chip cookie

    This place is simply awesome. They are specialized in excellent Italian baked goods, and they truly fill that niche excellently. This place is associated with the famous DiAnoia's, which I have yet to try, but I am now excited to. At Pane e Pronto, I ordered the pistachio bomboloni and a chocolate chip cookie. Both of the items were absolutely excellent! The entire bakery has a ton excellent Italian baked goods, like delicious-looking breads and pastries that I will try next time. As for the classic chocolate chip cookie, it was great! Decent price for the portion ($2.50), but it was delicious. Packed with tons of chocolate and quite soft. Not too sweet either. Great! But the even more delicious item was the incredible pistachio filled bomboloni. Bomboloni is somewhat similar to an Italian donut. The dough is covered in sugar and vey soft. It is stuffed with an immense amount of delicious pistachio filling. Somewhat creamy and the perfect amount of sweetness. I loved it! All in all, I thought this place was amazing and I will definitely be back. The food was delicious and they have tons of great Italian delicacies for sale. It's a bit expensive, but I believe the price is worth the delicious food.

    Sour dough bread, red pepper fennel jam, and pumpkin cheese bombalina.

    Excellent small-but-large bakery and carry-out place. Small in terms of the front area with a display case, a couple small fridges, and a table laden with fresh bread. Large if you look in the back, and realize this is where much of the magic happens for the sister restaurant down the street and a thriving catering biz. Great mix of Italian baked goods, sammiches, coffee, bread, and all kind of small and large takeout options. Try the focaccia and grab a dipping sauce or jam along with anything else you get here.

    Those little cakes on the top shelf would have come home with me if I hadn't stocked up on deserts elsewhere.

    Much of my review is based on my personal preferences. We ordered the mangia mangia meal, which comes with pasta, two large meatballs, salad, bread, and marinara sauce. We also picked up a couple of day old bread at half price. I must preface this by saying that even though I am Swedish Hungarian, I make great pasta from scratch and tasty sauce. And my meatballs are darn good too. I thought the food was good but except for the salad, not overwhelmingly better than mine. The salad, though, was terrific much much better than mine. I prefer crusty bread, but the cacia has good flavor. As does the focaccia, another thing I make. But the best focaccia is at this little place in San Francisco's North Beach, called Liguria. Help was friendly and definitely 5 star. Serving size was plenty big for 2 people. I chose Casarecce for the style of pasta and was very pleased with that. I think next time, I need to find something a little more out of the ordinary. But I'm glad we came.

    Pistachio bombolone

    Pistachio bombolone were fantastic I highly recommend them. Good store with a fun small atmosphere and plenty of food and pastry options, I will be back for sure.

    Seasonal roasted veggie soup
    Alex M.

    Love this lunch spot! Stopped in for some soup and a puff pastry and loved it. I got the seasonal roasted veggie soup, which was delicious and very heavy on the veggies. Not pictured is the ham and cheese puff pastry (ate it too quick to get a pic!)

    Cute bakery with delicious breads and goods! Owned by same owners at Dianoias- so you know it's fresh and amazing!!!

    Nutella Bombilini- delicious and filling
    Earline B.

    A great little bakery/deli in the strip affiliated with D'Anoias just a few blocks away. They offer a selection of fresh-baked breads, pastries, cookies, frozen and ready-to-eat meals, noodles and side dishes. From the moment I entered the Pane e Pronto store I was immediately in awe of not only the delicious scents of baked goods wafting through the air and the eye-pleasing display of the delicious and beautiful baked goods I was greeted by the friendly and oh-so helpful and accommodating staff.  It was an experience and I want to experience that again. :) We tried the take-home lasagna, they cost $10 each and 3 of them would make a huge standard size full lasagna pan. I reheated after I froze and it was STILL delicious. We also tried some cookies and some of the savory pastries and I am still thinking about them! So good a must try!

They said it was just "sitting down there" and got lost in the shuffle. I thought it was pretty pricey for the portions. We got the bread as an appetizer which was pretty good but again, not elite. I'd go back again maybe on a day it's not as busy.

Getting a spot in a class is very hard since they are limited to 6-8 people, but if you get the chance I absolutely recommend it. The classes are 2 hours long each and are extremely intimate.

I personally haven't ordered any of their ravioli drops before, but from eating the batch I personally made, I know I will in the future.

Very simple, no extra effort given beyond the output of a classic italian dish. Each plate proportionately could have fed two people so it felt like we were eating for four. We both left full, but underwhelmed with the flavor profiles rendered. Service: Overall our waitress was pretty absent, having asked us how we were doing only twice, leaving little room for any comments or feedback to be offered. She recognized her absence and offered us a surprise tiramisu (complimentary) to make up for the lack of attentiveness to our table. Seating: A large bar stretches the restaurant accompanied by wooden chairs, tables and a few booths tucked against the parallel wall. The seating is not tight, meaning you have space between yourself and other parties but the wooden chairs/tables were uncomfortable. In 2026, we just expected a little more from a restaurant charging $20+ for pasta plates. Affordability: If you're going out for drinks and an appetizer, you might be able to sneak your bill in for under $50, but otherwise forget it. Each plate is $20+ with options on the wine list reaching as high as $200+ ... We wouldn't describe this atmosphere as fancy, but the prices are trying to be. Comments: Always support local, small business and give every spot a try. We left this restaurant full, but saying we wouldn't be back, and think it's important that you get an opportunity to read an honest review before you spend your hard earned money. Take care, and happy eating!

    A few of us came in for dinner on a weeknight and they were packed, so it was a good thing we made…read morereservations. They were happy when they quickly greeted and seated us. The venue is beautifully decorated and though it's small, they do a nice job with spacing of the tables for all the guests they can accommodate at once. They are also BYOB, but offer a QR code for a neighboring wine shop who will deliver any bottle you select and pay for via the QR code at your table - This is great because they don't charge a corking fee when you do this, but if you do bring your own, they charge a modest corking fee, I think $8. Their menu is excellent... it's filled with so many appetizing options! We started with their stuffed peppers - OMG, EXCELLENT!! Any time I'm in the Pittsburgh area I need to try a few things, this being one of them. These were probably some of the best I've ever had! The sauce was finely ground and really flavorful. The peppers were perfectly cooked to keep their beauty and texture and they were spicy too! We also requested a large order of their table bread and asked for a side of EVOO with it. I sprinkled grated pecorino and freshly ground red chili flakes into the EVOO to make an incredible dipping sauce which worked perfectly with that bread! For my entrée I enjoyed their amazing Spinach Tagliatelle which came perfectly presented and tasted amazing! The spinach was perfectly cooked to the proper texture and the sauce was so good I didn't mind it having eggplant in it (which I hate). Save room for dessert, their panna cotta was great!

They have an awesome joint deal with the winery next door called Grapperia where if you buy a bottle, they'll waive the $8 corkage fee. It's a nice place to try new wine at dinner. We got the smoked gouda and nduja pizza & scallop mezzaluna (with the latter as part of their new year menu). Honestly, the pizza was way better than I expected, I'd say the best of these two dishes. It was thin but well flavored with the gouda, tad spiciness (or rather kick) from the salami, and creaminess of the roasted squash. I don't normally like white pizza nor squash on my pizza(?), but this tasted rather good and unique! The scallop mezzaluna was as if the scallop was a ravioli filling. So the dish came with 9 half moonish pasta/raviolis served in a very simple sauce of lemon and processo. It was okay, my first time trying something like this but I wish there was more or had an oomph to it. I'd love to come back here and try more of their pizzas!

    Seated via OpenTable Reservations…read more Food & Drink: - Mixed Drink(s): 5 / 5 Sip of Sunshine Old Fashioned - My server recommended it and I couldn't understand why he called it SOS until I had it. Spoiler: it's not the name. Clean, clear, smells like any other bourbon until that first sip reveals just how perfectly blended it is. The kind of drink you savor while watching the sun set on the horizon. Crème Brûlée Espresso Martini - As my heart rate settled from the first drink I needed something to kick it back up. One sip and I could've read the dictionary cover to cover without blinking. Close your eyes and the aroma takes you straight to that first cup of coffee fresh out of the pot. Lemon Blueberry Cheesecake Martini - Beautiful presentation but flatter in flavor than the previous two. However for a final cocktail that was exactly the point -- the perfect calm down after a rich and spicy meal. - Food: 4.25 / 5 Bread, Oil & Dip: A great palate cleanser that quickly taught me the chef loves his spices. The dip was described as "Italian Hummus" and if this is the standard I completely understand the hype. Appetizer - Ceviche Peruviano: Think of that forgotten appetizer thrown together last minute for a dinner party, a hodgepodge of raw fish and vegetables. But every bite delivers an explosion of complementary flavors, and that sneaky hint of spice hiding in the raw fish bites will wake you up immediately. Pre-pasta - Tuscan Kale Salad: Needed something to cleanse my palate after the spicy ceviche and frankly I am tired of Caesar salad. Not a kale fan normally because it tastes like dirt, but the lemon vinaigrette adds just enough flavor to make that dirt genuinely enjoyable. Pasta - Cacio E Pepe: Easily the highlight. My buddy describes it perfectly as fancy fettuccine. I have never liked fettuccine until now. My server, who prepared it himself, recommended adding house chili oil for a slight kick. I went one click past recommended and even then it was still divine. I would order it again without hesitation. Entrée - Veal Chop, Lobster Tail & Vegetables (Chef's preference): After riding Cloud 9 all evening I felt like Icarus flying too close to the sun. One word: bland. The veal was overcooked with all the flavor locked into the fat, and the lobster tail tasted like a convenience store impulse buy. The best use of those bones would be soup stock. I had no desire to finish it. Dessert - Tuxedo Crème Brûlée: As much as I wanted the house raspberry tiramisu I left the choice to my server after some back and forth. He recommended this for its balance of sweetness and berry bitterness and he was right. The perfect final note to tap out on. Service: 10 / 5 Even now, I still don't think I tipped my server enough. Dining alone, he made the evening feel like I had a companion at the table. Great conversation, personalized attention, and a level of service that few will ever experience. It was a pleasure to talk to someone who knows and appreciates food as much as I do. If you want an exceptional dining experience, request AJ as your server. I promise you won't be disappointed. Vibe: 5 / 5 Presentation, presentation, presentation. That is the theme every dish and the environment itself conveys the moment you walk through the doors at Alla Famiglia. This is a place for those who want to feel bourgeois for the night. Overall 4.25 / 5: My goal in life is to become a regular somewhere. There is something special about finding a place you love so much that every visit still feels like a new experience. Alla Famiglia is exactly that type of place. During my visit I was introduced to new items and dishes not listed on the menu, which only adds to that sense of discovery. It may be a while before I return since this place isn't cheap and my restaurant bucket list is long, but I will be back. Hopefully AJ is still there when I do, because that is exactly the kind of server you want in your corner as a regular. Recommend? Absolutely

I also wish they were crunchier. We saw a man order the Stromboli and it was ginormous but looked delicious. He was a big guy and only ate about 25% of it. Got my mom a corned beef sandwich and she said it one of the best she had ever had. We're Irish and she loves them. There are lots of great things on the menu and will be back to try other things.
