First time I’ve been to Pino’s. Very good experience. My husband had the risotto with shrimp and I the lamb. Both were delicious as well as the appetizers. The server picked a very well paired white wine for his seafood meal. When I jokingly commented on the limited dessert menu the server brought out chef Pino who humored my recipe edition ideas :). Glad to have had the opportunity to have our anniversary dinner at such a well run restaurant. We’ll be back!

Mt. Lebanon

About the restaurant

Mount Lebanon is now home to the pizzeria that The New York Times declared one of the best in the entire city. At F&F, we serve seasonal pies and slices, along with delicious market-driven fare that’s meant to be passed around the table. With a convivial vibe and thoughtful selection of wines and cocktails, we want to become your favorite neighborhood restaurant.

Our style is inspired by the pizza founders Frank Falcinelli and Frank Castronovo ate as kids. We celebrate this iconic heritage while elevating the form with excellent ingredients and the skills we picked up working in acclaimed restaurants—including our own, the famed Frankies 457 Spuntino in Carroll Gardens, Brooklyn.
