    I’ve been going here for many years and have never been disappointed. The food is incredible, the staff phenomenal, and the ambience is perfect for a date or a night out with friends. Highly recommend the meatballs and literally any pasta. And when in doubt on wine, any one will do because the list is well curated. You can’t go wrong here.

    Absolutely perfect in every way. We were 3 couples and asked for a round table and accomodated. We’re seniors, hard of hearing, challenging and had the most accommodating server named Greg who was unbelievably cordial and with a sense of humor. All in all, a great dining experience, food, service, atmosphere, comfort. Thank you C.T. - we’re in the ‘hood and happy to frequent!

    Always enjoy dining at La Piazza because there are lots of great food choices, The quality of the food and service is excellent. The staff is professional and attentive and the restaurant’s interior is relaxing. They have a great selection of wines which pairs well with the dishes on the menu. My husband and I started with the FOCACCIA BIANCA which was delicious. Each of us then had the LINGUINE ALL A VONGOLE as our main and we both loved this dish because the clams were fresh and the sauce complemented the pasta dish. Thete is another reason why we like La Piazza and that is the staff. Gizem, our server, helped to make our dining experience a very enjoyable one. Her professional and attentive service and helpful suggestions were appreciated. For great food and service La Piazza makes it happen.
