Wow! Wow! Wow! How did I live without knowing about this place!?!?! The pizza tastes like the pizza in Italy. Extraordinary! I love tiramisu and order it everywhere we go. This is THE best, no competition. The gelato is incredible! I can't wait to Come back. This is worth the drive if you're not from the area. The ambiance is lovely and cool.

I had a great meal last night. I’d brag about how great it is. And I’m so happy MY Ambridge is thriving but instead I have to pause to say the employees ruined it by mopping the floor and putting the chairs up 30 mins before closing. We wanted to look at the merch but the floor was wet and I couldn’t walk over there. Also the server tried to rush us out at 15-20 till while we finished gelato, although another party just got a pizza. We both were ring fenced by chairs put up. It closes at nine which pretty reasonable to stay close to closing. I don’t know if you gave this directive, but it’s bad business. Hire real servers who ask have you been here before… and tell you about any specials - big pet peeve as a former service industry worker

Opening a pizza shop in Ambridge takes balls. You'll be competing with two of the most long lasting and notable pizza in the whole Pittsburgh area, both less than a mile away. Of course I'm talking about Franks & Police Station. Anyway the pizza at black dog was very good. I love a wood fired style pie. Don't skip the Gelato- its delicious! BYOB is a major plus and the state store is right across the street. Many places come and go in Ambridge but I'm hoping this one stays.

Food is amazing, love their parma rosa, caesar dressing is amazing and the salad is always fresh, but their large take out salad isn't as large as one would think; have never dinned in so I'm not sure if the portion size differs in house compared to take out. Over all good high quality fresh food

Delicious pizza! I'm sad the apple pie isn't on the menu any longer because it was deliciously different. My husband loved the cup and char pepperoni pizza.
