The delicious duck breast was cooked perfectly at medium rare. The fritto mistook was tender, flavorful and perfectly crisp. A bottle of 2019 Giribaldi Barolo complemented the meal beautifully.

Food was very tasty but portions were on the small side, and more than a few of the clamshells in the pasta were empty. Coffee was cold and when the server was told she said she would make a fresh pot. Unfortunately that was also lukewarm.

7 ladies dining before a concert that was cancelled and the server put her music on for us! He was awesome! Food delicious beyond expectations. Also, the food was hot and came out perfectly timed. We never felt rushed and had a fantastic experience. Thank you, Senti!

Took my Wife and friends to dinner for her birthday. Very upscale feel but you won’t feel uncomfortable walking in wearing jeans. Dinner was delicious, filling and presented very well, the staff was very friendly and attentive. Really enjoyed it,and would absolutely go again.

We had a wonderful, memorable meal for our anniversary dinner. I especially appreciated that it was quiet - we still have a lot to talk about even after 3 decades. Our meals and the appetizer I ordered were perfect. I got the eggplant pasta - instead of being chunky, which I would normally expect, it seemed silky - presumably loaded with olive oil (so glad it's now considered so good for us). My husband enjoyed his gnocchi. We both had enough leftovers for two very nice meals upon our return home to Morgantown the next day. I took home the chocolate bread pudding - wow - great, deep chocolate flavor. I did a lot of searching but this was the perfect choice.

It had been quite a few years since I’ve been to Senti and I didn’t remember it well. So when I went last night, I was pleasantly surprised about how good the food was, how nice the ambience was, and especially the noise level was well managed. My wife and I don’t like really loud restaurants and there so many restaurants in Pittsburgh where the noise level is just too much for us. The food was excellent. The service was very good. Our young server did very well. The owner or maitre D came by and met with us briefly, which was a nice touch. My only suggestion for improvement is on the dessert part of the menu. I wish they would offer a selection of gelato or ice creams. The cake, the bread, pudding, and apple tart are more than I generally want for dessert. I love affogato and that’s what I ended up having but also a selection of gelato would’ve been much appreciated. it won’t be long before I am back at Senti
