Always a great meal in a great setting (on the patio) w/ excellent service! (Thank you, Omar!) Only thing we don’t like at Piazza Gavi is how noisy it is inside. But the patio is a wonderful option!

It was a birthday dinner which I put on my reservation yet ended up seated by the kitchen where it was hot and loud. It used to be that for birthdays they always brought dessert and you don’t have to tell the server because it was on the reservation. This time I did have to tell him. But the food always makes up for it and our server was great and more than made up for the shortcomings.

We've been coming to Gavi he opened his first rest as Grant out on Broadway. The food is amazing. The service at Piazza Gavi is horrible. Wd always wonder why it doesn't ever make the list of top 2 or 3 Italian restaurants and we suspect it's the lackluster service. Inattentive service, long waits for refills, never being asked if we want a second glass of wine, being asked if we want dessert so long after we have finished our meals and have been staring at our dirty plates that we just want to go home. We return for the incomparable spicy garlic shrimp and the wonderful food but wonder why.

Food and service were great. Don’t plan on having an intimate conversation as it is LOUD. Portions are very generous shared and still had some to take home. Aeever Jesus was very good and accommodating.

The food is out of this world. It’s delicious and piping hot or appropriately cold. The portions are huge. BUT this was our second time here and the service is still abominable. We waited 10 -15 with no contact or water or anything. We saw our server to order then with the bill… if it weren’t for the stellar food, we’d not go back.
