admin March 4, 2025No Comments

Senti, born from Franco Braccia’s vision, offers a unique Italian dining experience right on Butler Street. This Lawrenceville gem combines authentic Italian cuisine, traditional European service, and a contemporary approach to wining and dining, making it a standout destination on Butler Street. Inspired by classic Italian recipes from Chef Enrico Scolari, a lifelong friend of Franco, Senti’s culinary team masterfully crafts dishes that honor the original flavors of Italy while showcasing a refined understanding of Italian gastronomy.

Beyond the inviting dining rooms, Senti features a state-of-the-art wine bar and lounge area. Here, an automated wine dispenser allows guests to explore a curated selection of exquisite Italian wines at accessible prices and measured pours. Whether you prefer to be served or enjoy a self-guided tasting experience with a prepaid card, Senti’s wine bar adds a modern and sophisticated touch to your visit on Butler Street.

The ambiance of Senti is as carefully curated as its menu. Christina Ishida of Cici Crib Interiors has designed the restaurant to pay tribute to Lawrenceville, Pittsburgh’s vibrant Art Center. Senti’s open, gallery-like layout showcases large, original paintings by Traute Ishida, creating a visually stunning backdrop for your dining experience. The artwork’s vibrant colors beautifully contrast with the deep aubergine walls, while the culinary art on your plate truly pops against the minimalist white dishes, enhancing the overall aesthetic of this Butler Street hotspot.
