I was really excited to try this place, but overall I left a little underwhelmed. The food looked beautiful, but it didn’t quite live up to the presentation, and the marketing had set our expectations quite high. I ordered the Pappardelle con Amorini Burrata, while my friends had the lobster pasta and the truffle pasta. Unfortunately, the pasta was undercooked and too al dente, and the truffle pasta lacked much truffle flavor. We also asked for wine recommendations, but our order was mixed up several times. When we asked if the Prosecco was dry, the waiter assured us it was - but it turned out to be very sweet. The Pinot Grigio I ordered also tasted more like a Chardonnay; I suspect it may have been switched, but we didn’t push it further. Overall, the experience was just okay. That said, the restaurant itself was lovely further inside, and the atmosphere was definitely a highlight.

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!

La Piazza is such a lovely restaurant! The food was fresh and full of flavor — the pasta was perfectly cooked, and the pizza tasted like it came straight from Italy. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the staff were very friendly and attentive. It’s a great place to relax, eat good food, and enjoy time with friends or family. I’ll definitely come back again! Love Ambra as a Bartender. She is a sweet girl.

⭐ 1 Star @ Extremely Disappointing Experience I visited La Piazza New York recently and was shocked by how poorly guests were treated. The staff were dismissive from the moment I arrived, no greeting, no courtesy and the atmosphere felt tense, not welcoming. When I politely asked a simple question about seating, I was met with attitude instead of assistance. For a restaurant that charges premium prices, I expected professionalism, cleanliness, and basic respect. Instead, I experienced the opposite. The service was slow, the tables weren’t properly wiped down, and management seemed completely uninterested in customer satisfaction. I rarely leave negative reviews, but this experience was unacceptable. There are far better Italian restaurants in the city where staff actually value their customers. I will never return, and I strongly recommend that others think twice before dining here.

Absolutely amazing experience! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm and inviting. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive without being overbearing. Every dish was perfectly cooked, beautifully presented, and bursting with flavor — you can tell everything is made with care and fresh ingredients. We tried seafood risotto and the grilled lamb chops], and both were outstanding. The portions were generous, and the presentation was top-notch. To top it all off, the dessert was heavenly — definitely a must-try! This place is a gem. Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or just want a great meal, I highly recommend it. I can’t wait to come back! 🍷🍽️

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!

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 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. Otherwise, avoid this pathetic excuse for a restaurant at all costs.

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.

I love the sunning restaurant. It was such a great experience. They have weekly jazz that you have to check out. It really added to the atmosphere of the restaurant that's already beautiful. The food was absolutely delicious. They have a lot of classic Italian dishes, but everything is elevated. This is perfect for a very romantic date night or a classic New York City experience.

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.

Great service and delicious food . Shrimp on salad was shell on. U have to pay extra for more bread

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!

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.

La Piazza confirms what reviewers praise. The menu delivers on taste, servers know their job, and quality is consistent. I found the personnel were mindful. The restaurant balances warmth with proper hygiene. Wishing you a memorable visit.

Wonderful dining experience!! Pizza was delicious as was the Greek salad and deserts! Service was friendly and efficient. Highly recommended!

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.

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!

Grat service and one of the best pizzas I've had. Hands on manager made the dinner special

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.
