Many said this was the best wedding they hve ever been to. The food stations turned out awesome and the night was just perfect. Thanks for all of your hard work and dedication to pull off the "impossible" event. We loved it and enjoyed working with you. Thanks for everything!

I never thought dreams really could come true, but you made that happen. There are no words to express how VERY GRATEFUL I am for the fabulous "Dream Come True" shower you had for Joy Ellen. I was asked, "if I were to do it again, what would i change?" My answer was Nothing! The shower was perfect! So with all my heart, I want to thank all of you. It was amazing!

My husband Damian and I had a very small, intimate wedding and Cefalo's was the perfect choice for us to host out dinner. Cefalo's allowed us to use their private dining room for our close family and friends, and the staff, service and food were all excellent. Dean Cefalo's attention to detail is wonderful, and it shows with his overall presentation for any event. Our guests were very comfortable and had a great time at our wedding. I am the Marketing Director of the City Paper , I plan events regularly and know the importance of executing every detail for any event that I plan. Dean, Len, and Kathy Cefalo made sure that I enjoyed myself by taking care of all of the details for me. I thank them all for that very much!

Just wanted to personally thank you for the most perfect wedding we could have had. We both said when we came to Pittsburgh looking for a venue that we wanted the ceremony to feel like it was being hosted by our favorite aunt or uncle at their house and thats what we got. The warmth that you put into it not only was apparent to both of us, but everyone that attended....the food was absolutely incredible so please thank your chef, it got rave reviews. ..there is not one thing we would have changed...it was all we dreamed of.

I cannot begin to thank you and your staff for the wonderful job you all did last Saturday... we have been getting raves all weekend... from the service, to the room and for the food! Everyone was so surprised as to how great the food was...they said they never expected it and what a wonderful surprise it was... One guest is looking for a place for her wedding so she may call you soon for an appointment and others were asking Don about it. Don and I were never worried... we had all the faith in you and you certainly delivered. My mom, who sat near the buffet table, could not stop talking about the girl who took care of them... my whole family is in the F&B (food and beverage) biz and said she was fabulous,as was the rest of the staff. You did yourself and Cefalo's proud... You will definitely see Don and I again and whenever we have the opportunity to recommend a spot, you get our vote!

Cefalo's is truly a wonderful place to experience delicious food and entertainment. The owners and the staff go out of their way to provide excellent food and service. They make every effort to accommodate their patrons. My experiences there have been: in the dining areas wherea delicious dinner was served in an elegant dining room, the VIP room overlooking the experience of live music and dancing, and lastly, at my son's Rehearsal Dinner. In all instances everyone was impressed with the food, service, and ambiance. A truly a wonderful experience, and one that I have no reservations in recommending. A very "well kept secret" in the heart of Carnegie.

Not only was your support greatly appreciated, but the credibility of having a unique and classy organization like Cefalo's involved with this project demonstrates how we in this region can succeed when we work together... Rick and I can't thank you enough. but we will try.

Maybe it's the lush, midnight-blue décor and sexy lighting. Or the cocktail waitresses dolled up in minis, colored ties and cocked fedoras. Could be the big-band bandstand or the glint of ice resting in a gimlet. Likely it's all of the above, because Cefalo's is the coolest retro-atmosphere this side of Sinatra's bachelor pad. There’s no place like it in Pittsburgh, so slide into a booth and you’ll have the world on a string.

I seriously mean it when I say – it was the best lobster bisque I've ever eaten! The stock in this soup was so rich in flavor and with the sweet claw meat of the lobster, it was perfectly balanced. It's a must have at Cefalo's. You really, really, must have this bisque, you'll thank me. Service is impeccable, atmosphere is amazing, food is inspiring and I'm in love with Leonard Cefalo for his heart, his new family business and providing inspiration to Carnegie.
