    Buffalo Chicken Pie and Vodka Pie from Pizza Lupo
    Stuart H.

    Pizza Lupo is worth whatever it takes for you to get. Literally... go... get it. We tried the buffalo chicken pie and vodka pie. Both were packed with flavor and the crust may be my favorite crust in the burgh! Authentic pizza cooked in a no flair, authentic kitchen/store front. Benefits: They have a nice parking lot next to the store, which is a huge plus down in Lawrenceville. They have amazing staff to get you in and out with your pies.

    11/13/2025 Ate list: Pepperoni, Sausage, Red Onion - 6.7 Plain Cheese - 6.2 Second chance on this spot. Frequently featured on nearly every Best Pizza of PGH list so we felt we'd give them another shot. And frankly. I don't get the hype. I respect it but it is not the best of this "type" of pizza. It looks beautiful. Flavors are good. It's just not great or amazing. And at that, it is overpriced. 2 small pizzas at $40 w/o tip. I dont think we're coming back. This might be a top spot in the city for most, but not for us.

    Absolutely amazing. We did a tour of Pittsburghs 8.2 crew. They were all excellent but this one was our favorite. We only got the plain cheese but it was amazing. Shout out to the crew! There were really friendly and constantly hustling.

    Our toddlers enjoyed it too!

    It's been a minute since we went to Pizza Lupo but I'm going through food photos on my phone to catch up on reviews. Pizza Lupo is a pretty busy and popular establishment so I'd recommend calling in your order early/first thing when they open. Maybe it has slowed down a bit but we first heard about it when we saw a reel about it on Instagram. A popular foodie was eating pizza joints. We got a grandma style of the 10th warmer and it was SO good. The toppings were well balanced, flavorful, and generous. I wasn't incredibly hungry when we picked up our pizza, which was unfortunate because I wanted to eat so much more, but it made for good leftovers! I didn't go inside the restaurant, but had my husband go inside to pick up, so I can't speak to the ambiance, but there's no seating at the shop so we too our pizza to highland park to enjoy. Looking forward to going back soon! Well worth our drive from cranberry.

    Heard so many wonderful things about this place and not one of them is a lie. Currently my newest favorite pizza place in the burgh. Staff were very kind and service was quick, especially for how busy they were!

    I honestly don't know what to say other than - run, don't walk to pizza lupo. They work hard and bake even harder. One of Pittsburghs BEST.

    Hands-down, this is the best pizza in Lawrenceville. Though, I do prefer their traditional pies over the thicker crust 'grandma style'. Occasionally, these do come out a little to burn, which is frustrating, but part of the process with genuine wood-fired oven pizza. So just always check the pie before you carry out. This is a hole in the wall shop with no dine-in and they don't sell by the slice. You'll definitely want to plan your order ahead and check their hours because several days of the week they are closed and on the days they are open it's a limited business window. This is not a late-night pizza joint by any means. But for anyone who has a passion for good pizza, it's a must try! Our favorite the 10th warder is pictured below. It's got a kick!

    I know this will be an unpopular opinion but my friends and I did not like this pizza. It was all of our first times trying pizza lupo and it was not matching the hype. The crust was burnt, and overwhelmed any other flavor. The sauce wasn't really a factor. The ricotta dollops and hot honey additions were nice but for the price, it just didn't seem worth it.

    Was looking for take out pizza and found this place. Quick and friendly service. The pizza was delicious and we also tried the meatballs. Cannot wait to go back the next time I am in town.

    A rotating takeout staple in my household! Pizza Lupo is such a treat and a guaranteed amazing pie! This time, we ordered the 10th ward and I think I've found my new favorite pie. The toppings are incredible and work so well together. Ordering on the app makes pickup super easy and I look forward to ordering again!

    The bubble. Yum.

    Not only is this a super cute location but the workers are all really nice. Even is the pizza was bad I woulda been happy. The pizza? Fantastic I'm glad we went.

    Drunk meatball (small)
    Olivia A.

    Pizza Lupo is easily one of the best pizza shops in Pittsburgh. Amazing crust and high quality ingredients. I tried the Drunk Meatball which was a vodka sauce pie with ricotta, meatballs, and basil. It was fantastic! Very little sauce, but not too little. And the prices are very reasonable for a "small" that is 14". However, the online ordering clock was way off and my pizza was pretty cold. There was no one waiting on a Friday at 6 p.m. but the site still said my wait would be an hour. I will definitely be back, but I might disregard the timer. There's nowhere to sit, so be prepared to pick up and go (a quick process.)

    The 10th Warder
    Hannah G.

    The hype is real here! When calling ahead and/or ordering online, be prepared for a long wait...it's totally worth it. I got the 10th Warder specialty pie - tomato sauce, aged mozz, sweet sausage, pepperoni, ricotta, hot honey drizzle - it was amazing! The crust was perfect (might be some of the best crust in town?!) and I love me some tufts of ricotta lol. I can't wait to try more of the specialty pies!

    It is more of a take out place but there is a very small corner of the counter if you want to eat a slice while you're there.

Even though it was late we were greeted with exceptional customer service and were seated at a table. Our waiter, Remi with an I and not a Y was absolutely fabulous. He made great suggestions and the food did not disappoint. I ordered the 16 inch pepperoni with bacon. My daughter ordered the pepperoni roll and my wife ordered the meatballs and 2 Bianca slices. My wife's name is also Bianca so a double bonus. Our food came out about 15 minutes later and everything was piping hot. To my surprise the pepperoni came with the real bacon strips on top and not your average bacon bits. The sourdough is top notch as well. I ate 6 of the 8 slices while my daughter ate two along with her pepperoni roll. My daughter enjoyed her roll but did wish it had more cheese. My wife enjoyed her meatballs. They give you 4 and are a decent size. She was only able to eat 3. The Bianca slice is a healthy thick slice. Overall, we enjoyed our time at Driftwood. The service was OUTSTANDING (Remi). The food was good. We ended up staying 20 minutes past closing and didn't notice any change in customer service. This place is definitely worth a shot.

We were told there would be a wait, but our pizza was ready right when they said it would be. The staff was also extremely friendly and welcoming, which made the experience even better. Parking was a little tricky because of the location, but it was definitely worth it! The standout feature of this pizza for me was the flavor of the cheese (especially when paired with onions) that combination was easily my favorite part. They use a very generous, thick layer of cheese, which creates a rich and indulgent pizza. The cheese is quite oily and can slide off the crust, so personally the amount of cheese and oil was a little heavier than my usual preference. However, the chewy crust holds up well to the toppings, and there was still something really addictive about the overall flavor and texture of that cheese. One thing that surprised me was how good it was the next day when eaten cold. I actually prefer this pizza cold. The cheese and onions complemented each other even more, and the pizza felt a little less oily while allowing the flavors to shine even more. Overall, this is definitely a top-tier pizza place in the area. If you enjoy a flavorful, cheesy pizza with a great chewy crust, I would absolutely recommend giving it a try!

It was definitely not traditional. The sauce was very thick and almost floury. They serve it with pork belly, which does not give the same punch of flavor to cut through the sauce as guanchali or bacon. The papardelle noodle were dry and clumpy. The dish was very heavy. Do not recommend. The place is chill. It is close to the theater. I might try it again if in the area.

This shop will cook your pizza half cooked, as a lot of people like. We like ours well done cooked even longer than maybe the traditional cook time so we always request that. When my son went to pick up our pizza it was already sitting on the counter it had not been 15 since minutes since the order was placed. When he grabbed the box it was kinda wet on the bottom of box so we don't know if they set it on the counter on top of something ,but it was more than just extra sauce and onions that made the soggy like they assumed. We tried to recook it and when we took the pizza out of the box all the cardboard inside of the box was wet like something had been literally poured inside the box. I could barely get it out because it was so soggy it was falling apart. We live less than 5 minutes driving time so it was not from steam and cooking it more once we got home did not help it was that wet.. I have never seen pizza that soggy. I had my son call and they did not offer anything except advice on not to order onions or extra sauce when its humid out. We would have like a re-cooked pizza and to return the one we had especially since we had company. It was too wet to pick up a slice and inedible. So, if the owners see this maybe they'd like to somehow rectify it because now I have to start my grill to feed my company. Furthermore, if a customer orders extra sauce and onions on a pizza that.we are asking to be cooked well done an your only job is to cook pizza, you should advise the customer that it won't be crisp. We've ordered it that way before.. and as I said this was far beyond just soggy it was literally wet..and the 2 that ventured to eat it ,now have a stomach ache. It was most certainly undercooked and so wet it couldn't even be rebaked.
