Unfortunately, Brighton Heights only has a few places within walking distance (or free delivery distance) that make good food. Wiseguys is one I'm still on the fence about. I've had several items from them, wings, sandwiches, and pizza. Their pizza is par with the rest of the city, nothing special to write about. Their steak sandwich was bland and overcooked, but the veggies they added on were cooked well. They have several other sandwiches that are covered in obnoxious amounts of toppings, probably just to confuse your palate to thinking that you're eating something good. I must say though, their bread is really good. And this is coming from a South Philly girl. Their wings are hit or miss. The first few times I've ordered them, they were big and cooked well. I ordered last night, and they were puny and soggy. And now they charge 25¢ more for crispy? So I paid the extra charge and still got soggy wings. Oh, and don't tell me about delivery times, I live two minutes from wiseguys. I think if they could get their consistency down, I'd be happy to order more often. They're great in a pinch, though. Happy Eating!

I have come to the belief that one thing Pittsburgh has A LOT OF is pizza joints. Some better than others. With that said there is a jewel in the crown of Pittsburgh's Northside called 'Wise guys pizza'. Their menu has a lot of great gangster names and sayings, and adds a bit of mystic to ordering for first timers. Specials like 'The Don', The GODFATHER, 'the Luca Brazzi' fish and The KINGPIN. Additionally there are phrases like; side action, and a hoagie you can't refuse. While the menu is good, it isn't the star of the show. My experience with Wiseguys is that their food is a GREAT meal for a GREAT price. Their salads A#1, their wings not too greasy, fatty, OR dry. To quote my friend Goldilocks, these wings are JUST RIGHT. Now earlier in this review I spoke of stars. The star of Friday nights show was the cheese steak hoagie. Brimming w/meat FRESH I say again fresh vegetables, and (a pgh thing) fries. Me, and my two growing carnivores left our dinner table quite sated. Have I eaten there before yes will I eat there again oh heck yes. They are a good bang for your buck with several specials everyday. I end my reviews with this statement and my review of Wiseguys pizza will be no different. I vote with my money and feet, and rest assured that both will be making many more trips to this eatery. If you haven't tried it. Try it. It almost makes it worth your time to move into their delivery area!!!

They make the best pizza I can buy. We get one a week ( during Football, basketball , hockey , and the Olympics, and during special holidays. What I am saying is, we order a lot of pizza. Before we found Wiseguys, it was a gamble. Sometimes the pizza we would buy from many different parlors was ok, and other times it was terrible. But since we started buying Wiseguys pizza, we have been very happy with the pies we get. Sometimes Dar picks em up, and sometimes they deliver, And we're not easy to find. We live in the woods. But either way the pizza is always great. We love their crust, and it all tastes good the next day or 2. They are very polite on the phone and in person. We tell our friends and family all the time how much we love Wiseguys Pizza . We have had them over to taste it too and they agree they are good at pizza. Most important they aren't over priced. I'd rather tip well than to pay over priced pizza. Wiseguys keep up the good job. We appreciate it.
