"Piazza Italia exudes the energy of a casual trattoria found in an East Coast Italian neighborhood, where soccer jerseys hang from the ceiling and games play from a screen behind the counter. Piazza Italia isn’t going for a tweezer-y, molecular interpretation of Italian cuisine, nor is it acting out a scene from Big Night — this is unfussy, old-school Italian in the best way, serving beef, veal, and bechamel lasagna and plating squares of tiramisu for dessert. The restaurant will make any of the pastas with the homemade pappardelle, which goes especially well with the Bolognese." - Eater Staff
