Labriola's Italian Market

Very fresh and authentic Italian food and treats. All the staff is helpful and friendly. The mix of aromas capture the nose and stomach. Excellent Italian deli and market. Family owned with an Old School local feel to the store. A little pricy but you get what you pay for here. Hard to find authentic items here. Clean and well organized store. Excellent fried fish every Friday. Visit weekly. Highly recommended especially for hard to find items.

The food is delicious and authentic, some things are a bit pricey but it's a small specialty store so it's to be expected. I've spent over $100 here on several occasions. I love the deli but the service is so bad. I've been one of 3 people in the whole store before and the girl behind the counter at the deli has taken 20 minutes to cut a half a pound of ham and half a pound of salami lunch meat. With nobody else behind me. I understand if one person is in line it might make you "take your time" but it was extremely lazy and almost comical. I've also been in there multiple times when a kid is rolling boxes or a cart around (unloading food or something) and I just feel like I'm 1) in the way 2) and inconvenience. In 1 trip specifically I had to either apologize or say exuse me at least 7+ times because the isles are so narrow and I just felt like I was in his way. Have the teenagers do this task before the store opens or do this after you close the store. It's a very small store there is no reason to have employees wheeling carts around and getting in the way of shoppers in such a small shop. I will add this- the older women who is the cashier is extremely sweet, kind, and helpful. Overall, it's a great store. It would just be easier to shop and navigate if some minor kinks were worked out

Cute little Italian market saves you from going into Pittsburgh to go to Penn Mac for the necessities. They had a good selection of dry pasta's and pasta sauces and oil's and deli counter items, especially cheeses and a great selection of olives! Their frozen food section is excellent with many varieties of premade pasta is ready to cook, along with various soups ready to eat. Great little selection of Italian candies and cookies, along with various types of tapas canned. Overall I was impressed with their variety, but I will still have to go to Penn Mac for some of my specialty cheeses.

Don't expect to find delicious, fresh baked goods in this store. The cookies are terrible. Very dry and stale from the back area in front of the deli. There is another table in the front that had half sized poppyseed rolls way over priced. I thought that possibly meant they were homemade and fresh. They were so dry I had to throw them away. They also had 1/2 pies.I bought a peach pie and it was terrible. I wasted so much money in this store, I will never go back. The frozen items on the left side of the store were also bad. Covered in frost and freezer burned. From the taste I suspect they have been in the freezer a very long time. I found no dates.on the packages. I was completely shocked at what my bill came to and what I could actually eat when I got home. Not much. I threw most of it in the garbage.

I live stopping because they have a lot of Italian items I can find anywhere else plus they've been around forever. I always use the opportunity to stock up .

I can't complain about a thing here - except that it's so popular, the wait at the Deli line can be a while during the peak hours. They have lots of staff who are more than eager to help, and you can do some shopping while you wait on your orders. Everything is fresh and high quality. Because of this, we do NOT buy any deli items at the supermarket during our weekly trips, and always make a separate stop to get them at Labriola's.Another plus of this place is that their selection of Italian specialty items is impressive. Of particular interest is their range of authentic Italian pastas, of which we are big fans. Again, freshness is of the utmost importance, and they deliver on this promise. The freezer case is full of amazing things, like tiramisu, wedding soup, high quality ravioli, and lots more - certainly a big draw for our family.Finally, I have to give a special nod to what makes these stores truly special - the PEOPLE!!!! Service is always with a smile and always with significant knowledge on the subject matter. No matter what my recipes have required, the folks at the Monroeville and Aspinwall stores have always helped me get what I needed in the most friendly and professional manner possible. (I did see another interview where they felt the folks at the Deli were a little cold - maybe it's because I'm a "regular," but this has never happened to me. They're great. Of course, I shall be back again! Probably in the next day or two - even though I went yesterday! AMAZING!

A must stop pretty much everytime I'm food shopping in Monroeville. A nice smaller store that carries specialty Italian goodies. Everything is always fresh, from the bread (Breadworks, Mancini's, others) to the deli selections, cheeses, and a lot of delicious desserts (most in small 2 slice containers so you don't overdo it - they are delicious!). Try the imported prescuito, or the daily made pepperoni rolls. They also have a nice coffee selection. Specialty kitchen ware lines the wall near the entrance...so buy a Bialeta expresso coffee maker - you won't regret it.Great store!

I was a devoted customer of the Penn Hills location of Leonard Labriola's for many years. Unfortunately, that location is now closed so I've had to take my business to Monroeville. There are many fine qualities about the Monroeville shop, as the deli is first class and the availability of speciality items is unmatched in the area. However, the service has been so poor on several occasions, that I simply can't give the store a higher rating. I will cite one particular instance to demonstrate my point. I ordered a deli tray to be prepared for a specific time on a Saturday. When I arrived at the store, which was very busy, I asked a woman in the front where to pick up my tray. She said, in a very hostile tone, that I had to go to the deli. I asked whether I had to wait in line and she said yes. This was annoying because my purpose in ordering the tray ahead of time was to get in and out quickly. The store was busy so the wait was quite long. I could literally see my tray behind one of the counters - it was so close I could almost taste it! And yet I had to wait in a throng of people for quite a long while before I could get it.When I get my tray I waited in the checkout line and - guess what! - the same woman waited on me. She was on the phone when I was checking out, berating the customer who had phoned in, finally hanging up and saying, "if you want food you should get your a** in the store!" Apparently she was mad because the caller was unsuccessfully trying to use the online ordering system. It was a particular annoying reaction given the current COVID situation....This kind of thoughtlessness is just not classy. It really made me never want to go back to Leonard Labriola's. Also, the tray was a bit of a letdown. Very fine quality meats but very small portions. I could have paid half as much and had more food if I'd just gotten the meat directly from the deli and trayed it myself. Definitely wasn't worth the upcharge....

Wish the store were larger or offered fresh produce and fruit. The aisles are very cramped (but are wider than the Aspinwall store). The store has all the essentials for Italian and Italian American cooking. Last time I was there I bought their brand of red wine, which, according to my wife, is not bad at all.

Love the fresh lunch meats they have and all of the Italian foods in the store! The staff is extremely friendly and helpful!
