Last night we celebrated my fiance's birthday and we had a FANTASTIC Time. We checked in with the hostess, she was welcoming and we noticed that special menus had been printed and personalized for our special birthday dinner together; that is ABOVE and BEYOND. We enjoyed starter bread with the amazing dipping sauce, wonderful entrees, desserts and ended the night with cappuccinos. The food was spectacular, the service was unparalleled and the night was very memorable. I am so grateful to Piatti...for a dinner we will always remember. I am so grateful to all the staff; thank you so much.

The food quality could use some improvement. It’s less fine dining sushi and more casual eatery sushi if that makes sense. The service was great. They accommodated our large party of preteen girls for a birthday very well. Highly recommended for families and casual sushi eaters. Less recommended for fancy pants sushi eaters. (That’s me🤷). Price is good and selection is good. Especially for Poway.
