Tambellini family opens new restaurant in Pittsburgh: “I got marinara and meatballs in my veins”

The Tambellini family’s meatball recipe is a secret spanning three generations. The family has become known for their fine dining restaurants, but the last one closed earlier this year. However, a new generation of Tambellinis say this is not the end of their family’s story. Barry Pintar reports.

  1. Wow. I never heard of Tambellini's. I lived in Pittsburgh (Shadyside) from 1990-1992 & I always took my 2 young Sons to Minutello's, across from Giant Eagle. Or we ordered take out from More's Restaurant by the Hospital. I even remember Horne's Dept. Store & Woolworth being in downtown Pittsburgh. But Tambellini's? Why didn't a neighbor mention it to us?!!

  2. Show the food! If I opened a sandwich shop and the news came for a story, I’d hope they’d show off some of my sandwiches and create a buzz. I can’t eat history.

  3. I lived down the street from Tambellinis in Bridgeville. Was sad to see it go, it's a a bar now called the Railyard

  4. Welcome back! We used to go to Tambellini's for lunch in Pittsburgh every Friday. So glad you are re-opening.
