E. M. Pizzeria

Their buffalo chicken pizza is my teenager’s favorite. Great food at a reasonable price. Their market is stocked with unique items I utilize in dishes I create.

I’ve only tried a hoagie and it was great. I got a buffalo chicken hoagie and an italian hoagie. The lettuce was a little wilted but other then that they were great. I can’t wait to try the pizza and maybe stop inside sometime. Sounds like it would be interesting inside.

There are tons of pizza options in the south hills. This place is the closest to my house so my boyfriend and I randomly tried it a year or so ago and loved it! Now we get take out here regularly.
EM is unique considering when you go inside you will notice they are a Russian mini mart as well as a pizza /​gyro place (interesting right?!) so not only can you get delicious pizza there, but you can grab a unique snack that you wouldn’t be able to find anywhere else! I have even just walked around and looked at their unique items while they were making my pizza! They are family owned and have awesome customer service– always friendly and helpful.
The pizza is delicious– sauce is packed with flavorful and the cheese is wonderful. I like the crust but sometimes find it too doughy for my liking.
Save your receipts! Save 10 and get your next pizza free :).

We kept seeing the sign for the cheese pizza sale. 8.99, take out only, decided to stop. Definitely a great choice. The pizza was the right crunch to the crush, the cheese was perfectly cooked, couldn’t have asked for a better pizza.

By far my favorite pizzeria in the area! Crisp crust and breadsticks, amazing sauce and cheese. Very, very good. It’s even good cold the next day!

We always call this place the Euromart. I use to work in the GBU building and would meet the boyfriend for lunch here. They make a mean gyro. I’ve never had their pizza. That’s just weird to me but I guess they expanded so that they could stay in business.

Note #1: There’s a listing for an Aida Food Market at the same address. They are one and the same.
Note #2: There’s not much room to sit as there’s only 2 – 3 small tables inside, but we happened to stop in when they weren’t very busy, so we got seated with no trouble. Check their website for delivery areas and more general info on this neato little business.
You got it bud! It’s a pizzeria and grocer in one. In terms of groceries, they sell all sorts of Pan-​European goods; meats, exotic beverages, foreign snack cakes, and myriad cured things in jars. I really didn’t expect to find all of that inside this place I have rode by a zillion times. How many places do I say that about? The South Hills hold yet another dandy of a secret.
After looking around while waiting for our Friday night meal to be prepared, we came upon and almost bought a jar of this dessert spread called Eurocrem that looked really tasty…
BE VERY CAREFUL DOING AN INTERNET SEARCH ON EUROCREM AS YOU’LL FIND LINKS TO PORN! I AM SERIOUS. WATCH WHAT YOU CLICK ON IF YOU’RE NOT INTO THAT STUFF. I DON’T WANT PEOPLE SENDING ME EMAILS ABOUT THIS.
Ok? Whew!
Now we didn’t buy any Euro groceries, BUT, we did get to try a doozy of a pizza pie here. The ladyfriend turned me on to the pineapple/​bacon/​black olive combo on pizza, so that’s what we got, on a «medium» pie which is 8 cuts.
This crust is made by a virtuoso craftsperson. I mean that. I has to be. It was unlike any pizza I have ever eaten before.
Y’know how proper french fries, or «chips» as the Brits call ‘em, are supposed to be crisp on the exterior and soft on the interior? That’s EM’s crust, and it works brilliantly. One could imagine a little old man in a village in the Old Country spinning the dough. The crust even looks ancient in a very cool way. Puffy, rustic, magnificent cheese, sweet pineapple, even sweeter bacon, black olives that actually possessed a little something called flavor, this was one terrific pizza.
My only complaint was that their sauce was just a little on the bland side and could have used more spices, in my opinion anyway.
Note #3: They also offer other dishes including gyros, spinach pie, soup, and something called Cevapi, which looks highly appetizing…
And the head honcho there bears a close enough resemblance to Pittsburgh’s own Joe Flaherty, a.k.a. «Count Floyd» from the old sketch show SCTV.
I forgive ya if ya don’t remember.
But please do remember to come to E.M. Pizzeria.
