An amazing experience! The food was delicious, every dish fresh and full of flavor. The service was professional and genuinely welcoming – it felt like home. And the cocktails? Absolutely outstanding! Creative, well-balanced, and simply perfect. Definitely a place I’ll be coming back to soon!

With all restaurants there are hits and misses. The pasta at La Piazza was a definite hit. The pasta was tasty, cooked the right amount, and sauces were made expertly. Same can be said of the Antipasta cheese board; which offered tasty chunks of cheese and scrumptious slices of sliced salami. The pizza was not bad, but also not great. A special mention should be made of the tiramisu which had the perfect amount of sweetness; something rare in the sugar crazy US.

La Piazza New York is a fantastic new addition to Midtown, offering a modern twist on authentic Venetian cuisine. The homemade pasta was exceptional, and the wood-fired pizza had that perfect Italian dough and high-quality ingredients. The tiramisu was simply amazing! The service was attentive, and I especially loved the beautiful display of Venetian masks on the wall—it added a unique and elegant touch to the ambiance. Definitely coming back and highly recommend it!

Honestly some of the best Italian food I’ve ever had outside of Italy. The staff was helpful and kind and the atmosphere is amazing. We had both pasta and pizza and they were incredible. Will be back anytime I’m in the City

A Must-Visit Spot! Wonderful place! The food is excellent, and the happy hour prices are unbeatable. The bartender was incredibly knowledgeable about vodkas and champagnes—she recommended a fantastic Taittinger for my guests, and my martini was perfectly crafted. We ended up enjoying three rounds! Even during the busy rush hour, she kept us entertained with quick and friendly service. The whole team was efficient and welcoming. Bonus: they have live jazz music that really elevates the atmosphere. Don’t miss this gem!

Great new spot in NYC for Italian! The tonnarelli with red tuna and the swordfish with citrus sauce were both full of flavor. Pasta was cooked perfectly—not too al dente, not too soft. Upscale but relaxed vibe, and the service was friendly and on point. Prices are NYC-level, but worth it. Can’t wait to come back!

Pathetic scammy restaurant. We saw their $10 Aperol Spritz Happy Hour promo on a Sunday and decided to try it. The blonde hostess sat us down immediately without saying a single word about restrictions. The waiter came, we asked for regular still tap water – apparently too honest for them, because they charged us for bottled water anyway. When the bill came out, it showed $20 per Aperol Spritz instead of $10. We asked, and the hostess smirked and said, “Oh, happy hour is only at the bar… you didn’t know that?” Obviously not, because neither she nor the waiter bothered to tell us while eagerly seating us in their empty restaurant. Honestly, this place feels like it survives by scamming clueless customers rather than serving decent drinks or food. If you want to be tricked into paying double for a mediocre experience, come here. Attaching pictures of the happy hour sign, our receipt, and their embarrassingly empty restaurant.

Amazing restaurant with terrific service...if I lived in NYC it would be my goto spot. I believe there were 6 of us who came in after a work event we hosted for our customers in NYC. Immediately we all loved the ambience and I could personally see myself sitting at the bar and enjoying drinks and food any time!! We were sat upstairs being a large party and it was very comfortable. The servers took amazing care of us....so attentive! Everything ordered was adjusted to the size of our party per request, which the server would go and speak with the chef about and then communicate back how it would be adjusted and even provided other dish suggestions we may want to consider vs multiple of the same type. We had several delicious pasta dishes (even accomodating for a gluten free member of our party), the tomahawk steak, wine, prosecco.... everything absolutely phenomenal. After dinner we had a wonderful display of desserts presented to us that were thoroughly enjoyed. A++++ and I can't wait to come back in the future.

La Piazza is a newly opened Italian restaurant that is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. It encompasses two floors, has beautiful decor, delicious food, and exemplary service. I appreciated how the owner visited each and every patron and ensured that everyone was comfortable and content. Their description states it perfectly....La Piazza, where contemporary design meets classic Italian warmth. We started with the Insalata di Piovra (Octopus Salad). This salad was exquisite. I enjoyed how the octopus was thinly sliced, accompanied by tomatoes, black olives, celery, berries, and a lemony citrus oil. This starter is highly recommended and is one of their best sellers. For our entree, we shared the Pizza Napoletana. This was just as good as the appetizer and I didn't miss the cheese or basil. The ambiance of this restaurant is very relaxing, inviting, and each customer table is conveniently set apart from the other(s). Welcome to NYC, La Piazza. Thank you for treating your guests like family and enjoy your well deserved success.

I stopped in late one evening with Ashley P and got seated. La Piazza occupies the old Casa Limone space. We were in the mood for Pizza. Ashley ordered A Margherita Pizza, and I ordered a Quatro Stagione Pizza. A glass of Gavi and a glass of Pinot Nero to go with the Pizza. Both pies were very good as was the wine. $112 for dinner with an !8% gratuity means that we will be back.

They excel at both cooking and customer attention. I found the quality of service truly impressive. The spot's visual elements enhance the experience. The level of service is exceptional as is the food. I support visiting this place.

Came into this restaurant very spontaneously on a Saturday evening with 4 other guests. This was my first meal EVER in NY and I will say that I was not disappointed! Everything was delicious from the appetizer all the way to dessert. I ordered the lasagna and it was one of the best lasagna's I've had. I also ordered dessert which was also amazing! I was surprised to learn that they had only been open for a week! Very impressed and I can't wait to come back!

This is a great restaurant if you're looking for excellent Italian food, top-notch service, and a relaxing atmosphere that takes you back to the canals of Venice. The waiter staff and management are very friendly, authentic, Italian speaking, and accommodating to provide a memorable experience. The pizza is a must try as well as the pasta and Greek salad!

Great new spot in NYC's Italian dining scene! The food was fantastic -- I had the tonnarelli with red tuna, capers, and cherry tomatoes, and the swordfish with a citrus sauce. Both were super flavorful. Martini was well made, and wine pours were generous. The vibe is upscale but still comfortable, and the service was friendly and on point. Upstairs dining wasn't open yet. Prices are NYC-high, but that's to be expected. Definitely coming back soon.

Fantastic new place! We enjoyed ourselves from the first moment to the last. Friendly, attentive staff. The food is absolutely lovely. We tried several pasta entrees including the lasagna and the salmon. Everything was fabulous. Will be back.
