Soooo good!! Visiting Pittsburgh for the first time and this place was near our Airbnb so decided to try it out. Got the Sicilian pepperoni which I thought might be a little boring with just one topping but it was not. Bursting with flavor, maybe the best pepperoni pizza I’ve ever had! Prices are a little higher than some places but worth it for the high quality!

Definitely a good pizza shop, but it might be a tad overhyped. I didn’t love it or anything, but did enjoy it. They have both round pies and Sicilian style pizzas. Not a ton of premade pizza options outside of the classics, so a somewhat limited menu.I decided to try the red pizza in Sicilian form. The red Sicilian was pretty good. The dough was airy and not too overpowering. The cheese was tasty and seemed to be decently high quality. They had the sauce on the top, which is kind of unique and almost upside down or grandma style.I honestly wasn’t a big fan of the sauce and found it a little sweet. There wasn’t a ton of crunch to the pizza (it’s not like the Detroit style of Iron Born). But still, not bad.Their homemade ranch was pretty good but quite unique. It’s got an herbal taste to it, with a nice amount of creaminess. I think the ranch saved the crust at times.All in all, decent pizza shop that might be a tad overhyped. It’s still solid and I may come back, but nothing crazy.Vegetarian options: Classic vegetarian pizza options and a decent number of vegetable toppings.

RIP Badamo’s <\3 Badamo’s used to be my favorite pizza spot in the neighborhood. The round was perfectly cooked, NY style, thin and delicious. The recipe has changed. It is now comparable to any mediocre chain pizza like Vocelli’s. SAD

Easily one of the best pizza spots in Pittsburgh. Both the round and square pizzas are fire. They have these special hot peppers there that are very unique, highly recommend as a topping if you like spicy.Don't overlook the meatball hoagie and salad, which are also top notch. Usually have 3-4 options for slices as well, can get 2 cheese for like $6.50 which is an unheard of price for a meal these days.

I enjoy Badamos more than any other pizza in town or suburbs. Order a whole pie for myself and reheat singles all month bc not to get controversial but they’re fantastic. 5 stars every year since 2018
Your long hots, or whatever you call them, are excellent, especially with meat and red sauce.

Badamo’s Pizza features high quality typical pizzeria fare with a relatively simple but enticing menu. This spot has an interesting variety of topping choices including house made hot peppers, and the salads go far above and beyond the average pizza shop salad!

The best pizza I ever had. Lucky I live one block away but I'd travel for this stuff. Whatever you guys do to get that carmelized crust on the Sicilian please dont ever stop.
