Tazza D'oro - Pittsburgh

I absolutely love their pies and teas! They have great vegetarian options, like their delicious hand pies.

I ordered a double espresso and received excellent service with a friendly smile. The atmosphere is casual, but the coffee quality is lacking. The espresso tasted very bitter and sour. It is passable, but a truly great coffee should have a delicious flavor that stands out on its own. I would suggest exploring other coffee shops for a better espresso experience.

The coffee at this restaurant is consistently great.

Its a nice cafe don’t get me wrong, but nothing really stood out for me. The space is large and bright but somewhat boring. The are a bunch of wooden benches and chairs both indoors and outdoors where you can enjoy the sun. There is free wifi so you can work from there. It was pretty busy on a Tuesday afternoon but the service was quick. Both the baristas were really sweet and welcoming. I ordered the matcha latte and it was pretty good. The barista whisked the matcha in front of me and I asked it to sweetened with honey and they happily agreed. I only wish, they had proper mugs for people having drinks in the cafe instead of serving everyone in disposable mugs.

I ordered a double espresso and received wonderful service with a relaxed smile. The vibe is pretty relaxed, but the coffee is not good. The espresso was overly bitter and sour in its flavor. It suffices for coffee, but the heart of good coffee is the flavor when it has nothing to hide behind. I recommend trying some other place for espresso.
