Caputo's Friendly Inn

The Frankie Caputo that previously wrote a review for Caputo's Friendly Inn is not related to the Caputo's that own the bar. However, he was pretty much right on with his comments. I eat there nearly every Thursday. The food and service can not be matched. The extra light Sicilian style crust, topped with their own secret sauce recipe, is the best I've had. Everything is prepared fresh. Even the pizza shells are hand made by owner Caroline Caputo and a couple other family members. There's a great family atmosphere. Caputo's Friendly Inn is one of the greatest secret spots in the Monroeville, Pitcairn, Turtle Creek and Trafford area. I highly recommend this place to anyone who appreciates great pizza and hoagies. Its also a great place to kick back and enjoy some drinks and watch major sports events on the 2 Flat screen TV's. They are open Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. 5 Stars, hands down. more

If you like Luciano's-White Oak, Vinnie's-Forest. Hills, Mineo's -Sq. Hill, Fiore's-Brookline, a good NY thin crust, Chicago deep dish or even good Italian food, Johnny's -Wilmerding, for example, then Don't have this so called pizza. I swear to god that it tastes almost identical to the square cut shell pizza that the lunchlady made in grade school. They wouldn't return my money when I showed that I wasn't happy. They claimed that I was the first complaint in 30 years. Please notice the last name of the positive review here. It's easy to give yourself a pat on the back. They must have no clue as to what good food is. more

they have been making pizza it seems for a lifetime. The sauce is a family secret and the pizza shells are made old stylem, by hand and rolling pin! You don't see this anymore, you got to know how to make bread by hand and way too labor intensive to produce. The final product you cant compare. You have to get there and do this. You won't be able to get this heavens delight forever. Pros: best pizza crust and great sauce Cons: located in a sleepy town more
