Piatto Italian Kitchen

Beautiful decor with an excellent menu. Everything prepared in-house (pasta, bread, desserts, etc). I dined alone so I sat at the bar, where I received excellent service. My Beet Salad was perfection on a plate....and my entree (Braised Short Ribs w Whipped Potatoes and Roasted Carrots) was flavorful & delicious!

Food is absolutely not good. The arancini and chicken Parmesan was flavorless. The drinks were extremely sugary. The Caesar salads and the oil and vinegar for the bread were extremely tangy and sour. It was way too expensive for the quality and I don’t mind spending money for quality food but this was not worth it at all.

Really great place. The owner is amazing. He took the time to come check on us and talk to us about the story of the restaurant. The food is wonderful and the drinks are amazing as well. The decor is elegant and very well done. I really enjoyed sitting at the bar. The staff provided great service and food was very good. I cannot wait to go back and try more of the menu selections. I highly recommend trying them out. This part of town has some really great restaurants.

Fabulous find all pasta was freshly made in house, our first time here but not our last. My parents were Italian and the food here brought me back to Italy. Britney was our server she was very friendly professional and knowledgeable of the menu I really can’t say much more just go and taste the excellent made from scratch food, the chef is a magnificent ! We will definitely be back . Hi we went back again 100% my favorite Italian restaurant nothing compares in Oklahoma City! Everything was excellent. And Britney was wonderful again . See you next week .

Atmosphere was great, nice and romantic. Service was awesome, very attentive staff. Food was not all that great. Great presentation but taste wasn’t there. Garlic sauce was watery and the bolognese was pretty bland. Very expensive place, too, and serving sizes were OK, not what you’d expect for what you pay. Final thoughts: I wouldn’t come back here, there are better Italian restaurants in the city.

My wife and I enjoyed our first dinner at Piatto on a Friday night. It was crowded-which is a good thing! We ordered the gnocchi, arancini, Caesar salad, Cacio E Pepe and chocolate tart. All of the dishes were expertly prepared, perfectly seasoned and very traditional, with the exception of the arancini. They were a bit too dense and tasted potatoey (is that a word?). I would avoid the arancini, but everything else was simply outstanding! I don’t exaggerate when I say the Caesar salad is absolutely perfect. The Omega bar is spectacular. There are numerous pieces of art sublimely presented within the space. 10/10 ambiance. Folks, this is a very high-end Italian restaurant, with very fair menu prices. (They also have n/an options on the bar menu!)

Beautiful restaurant with really good food. Service was decent considering we had a mixed group of people and were keeping them busy. I was the only vegan at the table and I don't think that the waiter heard me when I stated that/placed my order because some cross contamination things happened like bacon was not listed on my salad order but was placed on it. I'm vegan by choice and not necessarily so I am very understanding and simply put it to the side and decided to take it back to my fur-babies who are not vegan. He did hear the no goat cheese request. I ordered the vegan bolognese and with the first mistake I did question if I was served the right dish but didn't push the matter since I was preoccupied with the group discussion. When asking about other vegan options for dessert etc he didn't seem sure and didn't go find out so I didn't order anything else. I would possibly consider going again just not with a large group so I could get the service I would have liked.

This place was the perfect date for me and my husband. The service was awesome, and the food was incredibly delicious. I can't ask for more. The atmosphere gives us more private vibes, and the place is clean. The owner was so nice.

We really wanted to love Piatto. We have driven past a dozen times and finally decided to try it first ourselves. When we walked in, we were immediately greeted by the owner/manager and shown to a booth. The ambiance is very subtle. Nondescript jazz plays in the background and the walls are a literal art gallery. For me the ratings rely heavily upon the food. The calamari appetizer from their evening special was 5 out of 5: lightly breaded and seasoned, tender, and perfectly fried. The pepperoncini was the perfect complement. I haven't had better calamari on either coast. Piatto makes their own pasta, which is unusual for OKC. I ordered the seafood piccata from their seasonal menu which featured shrimp, mussels, and clams. The flavor profile was outstanding, if a little heavy on the capers. I was surprised when I bit into a shrimp tail - I don't understand chefs who leave the tails on shrimp that are incorporated into a pasta or other dish. Also, a spoon would've been nice to twirl the perfectly cooked bucatini as well as to fully open the mussels. I give the dish a 5 on flavor and a 3 for the tails. The lasagna was excellent. A little wetter than we are used to, but we really enjoyed the flavors. 4 out of 5 Side note for my friends in wheelchairs: DO NOT attempt to come here on your own. Their entrance is not ADA compliant and you'll have difficulty getting through the doors on your own.

When you're recognized upon arrival it means they have a great memory or it's a wonderful restaurant that we enjoy frequently. Perhaps it's a little bit of both. Piatto is a fantastic restaurant that you could easily miss when driving down NW 63rd. However, you're missing one of the best Italian restaurants in OKC if you've never been. Service was top notch as always and we were seated in a quiet booth away from the noise of the main area. We have hearing impaired guests and appreciate a quiet spot over an energetic and noisy spot. The bar area is much more vibrant if that's your thing. We didn't try any new dishes but enjoyed our favorite dishes. The Ravioli appetizer is beyond comparison. You will not find a better ravioli in OKC and probably the entire state. Sadly I forgot to take a picture of it. One couple shared the Poached Pear Salad and Roasted Chicken. I started with the Lemon Chicken Soup which is loaded with chicken and has a delightful flavor of lemon. My husband had the Scampi but my picture was too blurry to post. It's something he selects on almost every visit which is high praise. Shrimp are so easy to overcook but the Chef knows what he's doing and they are expertly prepared. I chose the Roasted Beef Tips from the seasonal menu. This is a dish I make at home and I'm fully aware of the time and effort required. The sauce is smooth, luxurious and delicious. You cannot go wrong with this dish and it's a favorite of our group

The short rib, the confit duck special and the calamari were all amazing! Get in there while they still have their fresh peach strudel. It will knock your socks off! The service is always on point and it's a very pretty room. You can always find an interesting wine on their list

First time dining here and I must say this will be my go to place to get good Italian food. Food was very tasty and well balanced. Staff and service was super attentive to our needs and kept checking on us the aesthetics was very pleasing and modern definitely a go to for date night or girls night out.

We went here for valentine day special. There was a 4 course meal for 89. You get there they seat you and everything gets going . I got sat by the kitchen worst spot everyone kept bumping into my chair . Over all the night kept going and the door was good and the restaurant was clean and the waiter was so sweet and timed out our meal perfectly. Must try . The food is like upscale Italian no like you expect your nonna to be in the kitchen but it was a new taste experience. Belly welly, jelly

This restaurant has a cute vibe to it. Can be a date night spot. The table bread was fantastic! But, the entrees missed seasoning. Everyone had to add salt to all their dishes. This would be a good place for ambiance and drinks. Service was good and friendly.

Staff is very friendly and ambience is pretty quiet. Soft lighting and nice seating arrangements for a night out. With that said, we felt like they definitely need to upgrade the recipes. Chicken Parmesan that tasted and smelled like cheap oil that overpowered the whole dish. Barely taste any parmesan, and was just overly greasy. Bolognese was bland and lacked the depth of flavor of a traditional bolognese meat sauce. The only redeeming quality is the pasta was cooked well with a nice texture

The Food was amazing and the staff was very nice. We came 30 mins before close and the didn't make us feel like that we're about to close. Very courteous and polite!! The space was the perfect date spot. Clean, lightly dim and warm vibes

Impressed by the ambiance, amazing service but mostly the food. The Cacio è Pepe was incredible and is instantly a new favorite dish. You can literally taste how pure, fresh, and authentic the food is. Such an elevated Italian food experience in Oklahoma City.

We went for New Year Eve for their 4 course dinner. It was also our 1st visit and we had been excited to try this place out especially for their pasta Upon arriving we were seated right away but waited about 10 mins for our menus and to be welcomed. Server wasn't interested in small talks or introductions; prob due to it being busy? We were offered; small plate, soup or salad, main course and dessert. I had ordered the gnocchi which were dry and had no flavor. My husband got the rice balls and they were amazing! We both got the Chicken Lemon Soup; wasn't bad but not my fav. Our main course we were too full to eat so we took home and enjoyed later! (chicken parm for him and bolognas for me). Desert was amazing; Brandy Ice for him and Panna Cotta for me! However, we had oil on the table and bread was never bought out. I had ordered a drink; never got it and was billed for it. No salt or pepper on the table; asked 3 times for some and never got. Never was asked how our food was or spoken too. Sadly for $89 pp this was disappointing.

This is one of those places we've driven by the past few years always say we should give it a try but always forget! One Saturday evening we actually tried it out! We came around 5:45 so there was about 15 min left of happy hour yes ... happy hour on a Saturday so we each got a drink i got a gin and tonic my husband got a beer. We ordered the bruschetta appetizer for half off, making it only around eight dollars. The bruschetta was decent. Nothing spectacular but okay. They give you complimentary focaccia bread and it is delicious! We liked this better than the appetizer. I ordered the shrimp linguine and the pasta noodles were delicious but the shrimp tasted like it was straight out of the freezer. I definitely wouldn't have ordered it again if i knew this. There was a couple sitting at the bar next to use they each tried their entrees sent it back and requested a refund. We've never seen this happen before but the manager handled it with grace and kindness. Service here was attentive and everyone was friendly. The manager even walked around checking on tables which i appreciated. The overall food quality here was nothing to rave about I've had much better Italian locally and probably wouldn't want to come back here unless it was close and in a time crunch or something.

Just celebrated our 50th Anniversary with a wonderful meal and the spectacular staff at Piatto. I had asked to have our preacher renew our vows during dinner and was told sure. My wife was totally surprised about the vow renewal and Enis even took a video for us with my phone. It was such a wonderful moment for us both. To top it off champagne to toast each other. I can't say enough about going above and beyond for our special event. If you want a restaurant that cares for their customers and has outstanding food, Patton Italian Kitchen is the place to go. Thanks again and hope to see you soon.

The best Italian restaurant in OkC without hesitation. Excellent menus. Delicious food. Superb hospitality and inviting venue and atmosphere. I will rate it 5 star no doubt.

My whole experience eating at Piatto was outstanding! I arrived without a reservation and was greeted by the owner with a smile, despite being significantly under dressed for the wine tasting event that was scheduled for the night. I asked to be seated off to the side in a private booth and he was happy to deliver on my request. The calamari, pear salad and filet that i ordered were all top tier, with the cut of beef being absolutely amazing. I had read in other reviews that portion size at this establishment were small, however i found them to be quite large and both the appetizer and salad were sized big enough for 2 to share. The meal was so good, I decided to return the next day (more appropriately dressed this time) and enjoyed the 1/2 size Caprese Salad, Veal and Lemon cheese cake for desert. Again, each part of the meal was absolutely top notch just like yesterday's dinner. I travel the country for work, and try to find nice places to eat in each city i visit. This trip to Piatto was honestly just a convenience pick because it's close to the Marriott, but I am sure glad I found and will return again the next time I'm in OKC.

Accident to find this nice place. And really busy. So...some new stuff for me. Octopus/Bone Marrow for main. Beef Carpaccio app, which I've had previously. But not here. My first time this food experience. White moscato and club soda for fluids. Nice private and quiet booth I waited only a few minutes. Sure like. Oh and apparently house-made pasta. Always great/better. The beef carpaccio...REALLY good. And only a few minutes to my table. Anxious to taste the bone marrow dish. I've had some octopus and sure like. Never the bone marrow. And is really good also. Actually is mostly a thickener for the marinara. I like.

Food was like being back in Italy. Freshly made pasta. From the moment we walked in our server Britney made us feel so welcome. The flavors were amazing. What a beautiful restaurant, 10 STARS

They make all their pasta in house. Shrimp scampi was delicious. The sauce was creamy, herby, with a little spice. My wife had the bolognese and loved it. Service was attentive as well. It was on the pricier side, but that's pretty much everywhere these days. They did well with our young kids too.

Not for me at all! It is way over priced for what you get served. My waitress is not very interactive or talkative felt like she was put out when my friend was asking about a certain wine. I will definitely not be going back.

OUTSTANDING! The duck was excellent! Michael at the bar is spot on. Unbelievably attentive and excellent service.

I was sadly not impressed, especially with the recommendations I received about this place. My food was almost flavorless, my wife enjoyed her scampi. Service was so-so, not the friendliest folks. A bit of noses the air attitude. Ambiance was really, really loud. Wedged in between two large parties of loud old folk, I could barely hear my wife during dinner. I will only return if my wife forces me to.

Decided to try something new in okc. The restaurant seemed very empty. I ordered the Seafood risotto. The scallops and shrimp was fantastic, however the risotto was over cooked and very mushy. My friend ordered the Veal Involtini-- the veal was ground into a tube. It seemed to be premade and frozen before cooking. Did not have a fresh taste. The Parmesan risotto is also very mushy and over cooked. Lastly, the chicken Parmesan came with a poor tasting marinara sauce.

Excellent food and atmosphere. Service was mediocre but I would return again for the food and give it another chance. The lasagne is huge and more than enough for 2 people. The Shrimp Scampi was excel and the homemade noodles were delicious. We also had someone order the Salmon and it was excellent as well.

Piatto has great food and great customer service! We came here for my brothers birthday dinner and we had an entire room to ourselves. The restaurant has a nice layout. All the appetizers, main courses and desserts we ordered were very delicious! You can tell all of their pasta is homemade. The waiter was great and we were also checked on by the manager during our meal. Highly recommend trying this Italian restaurant! Their menu is more creative than your ordinary Italian.

Warm personal service, beautiful surroundings and inventive dishes make this a top choice in the very competitive OKC dining market. Their bourbon list is a thing of envy! Ennis has it all figured out and you should take advantage.

This one has landed in the "not again" bucket. Once we arrived, despite being seen - as in direct eye contact - and ignored by at least four folks, we waited to be seated for an excessive amount of time. It wasn't off to a good start. Once we were seated in this smaller area of the restaurant, it felt like everyone was being holed up in this corner since the rest of the restaurant was dead. There was this overwhelming feeling that the folks here this evening were regulars. The manager or owner made rounds, welcoming everyone around us except us. It took quite a while to be acknowledged by the servers, but they came by to greet us separately once we were. I ordered the Carbonara, and I just wanted it to be over. Whatever the mystery protein was, which should have been guanciale, the cook on it was so overdone I could not identify it. The long and short of it, we were disappointed from start to finish - this one just fell flat. I hope a regular crowd loves this place because it deserves to bring folks happiness; it is just not for us.

Piatto Opened in 2019, and remained open thru Covid. I found that Inspiring. Inside the atmosphere is intimate and quiet. We had the bruschetta, which was served a little differently on two large slices of bread. The Italian salad was good. Our entrees were the Filet and sea bass. Both were on the small side but tasted good. The lemon cheesecake at the end was delicious. Overall not mind blowing but we enjoyed our dinner and the staff was attentive and took good care of us.

If you try this place, you will want to dress pretty nice and get ready for some delicious/pricy food. I underestimated this place but would love to come here again! Very helpful and friendly staff.

PIATTO ITALIAN KITCHEN- First timer here. Had a sudden craving for some homemade Bolognese with pappardelle pasta. Update: Pasta is amazing! So delish and legit.

The ambiance and atmosphere is usually beautiful. Even when we were created by the hostess she was a young girl in ripped jeans and tennis shoes that was kind of weird and off putting for what is supposed to be a higher end restaurant. The lighting was so low it was hard to read the menus and had to pull out a flashlight to be able to see the color of the steak. I usually love going here but tonight was disappointed enough I am unsure if I will be back. The service was not good. I asked for a soup and it came out right before the food. I did not have enough time to eat it, I had maybe 3 bites and our food was brought. I asked for it initially when they asked about appetizers but he didn't bring it and I had to ask again. Someone in our party ordered steak well done and it came out rare. We tried to get the manager's attention because no one came back to check on anything but he would not respond due to discussing sports with the other manager. My husband finally had to get up to get assistance because no one came to check on how the food was. They then remade the steak while we all sat and waited and never said anything about such a mistake. My pork sugo was dry when it is usually moist and epically amazing. The managers never came to talk to us or check in and we were there celebrating my birthday and they never even mentioned it or said anything. Usually the service is great there so I am shocked it has gone so downhill.

Nice ambience, booths feel private. Good service- owner often greets you personally. Good food - the beef carpaccio was a standout dish

I usually don't go out for Italian because I tend to see the same menu from many Italian restaurants here in the metro. But this place had variety. The service was attentive, and the manager and our server kept checking on us. I had the veal involtini, and it was wonderful, and it's something you rarely see at other Italian restaurants. The dish was packed with fresh flavors from the herbs, while the risotto was creamy and had good consistency. Overall, I had a good dining experience, and I enjoyed my dinner.

What an unexpected gem! We had never heard of this place, and went one evening with some friends, and we will definitely be back. Hubs ordered the Pork Sugo and I got the Cacio e Pepe. Both were excellent! The table ordered the Roasted Gnocchi and the Beef Carpaccio which were tasty. It is hard to find places that prepare good gnocchi - so we were thrilled! The atmosphere was inviting and great customer service. The owner was constantly walking around and engaging in conversation. They have various private alcoves to sit and enjoy your meal. The bar area looked amazing and it would be perfect for drinks and appetizers.

I cannot recommend this place highly enough. The food was incredible, the service was the best we've had in years, and the experience overall was fantastic. The staff (especially James and Becky) made us feel like the most important customers in the world, curtailing the service to our specific taste based on what we liked. We got the Caesar salad and Cacio e Pepe, and wow both were incredible. Excellent bar service as well; we both loved our cocktails. Very knowledgeable on wine as well. They treated us like family! Definitely our new favorite Italian place and restaurant in general! Also, I made a special request on our open table reservation and they went out of their way to accommodate us (we asked for a drawing on our table and received pretty much professional artwork!). I could go on and on!

Came to celebrate my birthday with a group of 4 friends. Wanted to try some handmade Italian pasta and came across Piatto. Made a reservation for 6pm and the restaurant wasn't too crazy busy. The restaurant is very nicely decorated, would definitely say more elegant than casual so definitely a place for a nice celebration. We tried the pan fried gnocchi as an appetizer as well as the bruschetta. The bruschetta was very tasty and fresh, however the gnocchi was okay. There wasn't much flavor, but the flavor that did come through was not pleasant. Out came the complimentary bread which was very soft and fresh. Our entrees finally came out - I ordered the shrimp scampi while my husband had the seafood special pasta. Both were lemony while mine was a bit more creamy. The pasta was very fresh and delicious. The reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is that the server didn't acknowledge at all it was my birthday even mentioning it. Not that I was expecting any dessert or anything, but to even say happy birthday, considering we were coming to a nice place overall. I've felt more special at other restaurants and would not consider coming here for celebrating a birthday again. Otherwise, the food was fine, worth a try for fresh handmade pasta.

So, we finally tried this place for a special evening. Man were we bamboozled and catfished with these dilapidated flavors. This has a quality of a drop-out wannabe cook from cordon bleu masquerading as a chef - and frankly it is readily evident on first bite! First off the ravioli: it tastes like ravioli soup -if that is your thing - that's all I'm gonna say, it is baptized in sauce and it has the robust flavor of steamed water (tap too). Second, the seafood with the risotto. The scallops had more dirt in/on them then a former member of a Trump administration. And don't you dare get the shrimp to go, it will be hard as a rock, keeping many Oklahoma dentist in good practice for years to come! I don't know what genius thinks stuffing shrimp in a microwave to go box with all that trapped heat will do to the shrimp. Third, the bread. Surprisingly has good flavor; however, don't get too excited because you need to make sure that you are accompanied by a guest that is adept and certified to be able to perform the Heimlich maneuver because the crust on these bread is life-threatening hard as hell! You didn't survive the pandemic to ultimately meet your demise by a crust of bread.... Forth, the desserts. Again they have the full support of the Oklahoma dentist society. As you would need the teeth of a hyena to get through them... if you happen to be a cast from The Lion King laughing hyenas, then you might want to get more than one because these little bricks are tiny as hell! My advice is to just stop by Cheesecake Factory instead or anywhere else for the nightcap of sweets - you will definitely would want to forget this evening! Fifth, the location is sorta-kinda sketch- yes yes people in gentrified glass houses shouldn't be making such statements.... But this is definitely not a romantic spot for date night - and a lot of the interior seems to have been designed cheaply - again masquerading as something more than it truly is, literally had peeling paint smh! Wait wait I almost forgot, because we never even ate it after the first bite! The masquerading sea bass... AKA the seafood swindler. This thing was as flat as a Panini, and I question the veracity of the Chilean origins of the sea bass. McDonald's fish fillet had more flavor than the Seabass that's all I'm saying. (Bogo on the McDonald's app on the fish filets by the way - now, don't say I never gave you a good tip). Also a little tip from the insiders, if you truly dislike your children, they have a children's menu as well - torture the whole family while you're at it! Lastly, the packaging, the least of your problems and worries... but if you spend 140+ bucks on food, at least it should be packaged for transportation, our food was looked like a May tornado ripped through it - discombobulated within the bags and spilling from that robust sauce again all over the other items... yum! FYI: this review hits a little bit better if you read it in a Trinidad and Tobago accent!

Good but not great seemed to be the theme of this semi-popular Italian eatery. I say semi-popular because while the reviews are good, the diners were surprisingly sparse during our visit. Even so, one of partners assisted the only waiter in servicing our table. I can only imagine the waiter being lost on a busy night. More importantly, the food was closer to 3 1/2 stars than four, especially after proving that - yes you can - overcook Lamb Shank Osso Buco. While the surprisingly large portion has taste, the meat was already starting to dry on the bone, giving it a stringy texture instead of tender. Using a cheaper house wine to braise it doesn't help either. My companions were equally perplexed by the Lamb Meatballs pasta. Good, not great, in that the noodles didn't taste homemade and the marinara wasn't robust. The uneventful dinner continued right into dessert. The tiramisu looked more impressive than it tasted, largely because the lady fingers being used are not high quality. They would be better off baking their own light cake and using more mascarpone than cream. Yes, we'd probably give it another go ... but with much lower expectations when okay Italian will suffice.

Well, I must say tonight service and dinner was exceptional. The new wait staff.. Perfection. Caleb was amazing and attentive. The new dishes on the menu are to die for. Lives up to it's name. Perfect dinner.

Piatto is a restaurant that has reinvented itself a few times now, but let me tell you it's current state is here to stay. My friends and I just had a fun girls dinner here and it could not have been any more lovely. Walking in you are presented with an impressive bar that had a lively gathering of people on a Saturday night. We were ushered to a private nook that offered an intimate vibe perfect for a girls dinner or a date night. We started our meal with wine and arancini and crab cake appetizers. Both were tasty, but not the best we have had. But dinner was a different story! We each got a different plate so we were able to taste a bit of each other's and really get a nice overview of the entire menu. The handmade pasta was an absolute treat to our taste buds! We all raved about the food and consider it some of the best Italian food that we have had. We finished the night with night caps of brandy ices, expresso martinis and crème brûlée and cheesecake. Being full from the pasta we thought we would just have a taste but they were too delicious to stop. We finished it all and went home happy, full, a little tipsy and already discussing when we should go back! Would definitely recommend Piatto!

Excellent place for a date night! Cocktails were delicious and so was the food! Portions are pretty large and very flavorful. Also, our waiter was fantastic, which always makes for a good dining experience. If you go, you must end your meal with their brandy punch! This is not something I would have selected, but was highly recommended by our waiter and it did not disappoint!

Went as a family of 6. One ordered filet well done. She told them they could butterfly it. Came out bleeding. We had to chase someone down to send it back. What waiter worth anything doesn't ask if filet is prepared as you like it when serving it? After coming back the second time, it came out still pink in places. She picked around it. Husband ordered chicken parm. It was not breaded chicken with fresh parm. It was stringy boiled chicken with POWDERED parm. I had pesto. Pesto was tasteless and pasta was over done and rubbery. Not a place I would recommend.

I have eaten at all this restaurant's incarnations and I've liked things about all of them and I've cheered for all of them. First, I love the booths. They are private and cosy. The wall between the private booths isn't completely closed off (even though it's attractive) and it makes the booth area slightly noisier than I'd like in a potentially private area. It could be romantic but is not. The menu is deceiving. There are a lot of items labeled as vegan which are not. However, the do have a pasta Bolognese with Impossible meat which is vegan. Sometimes eating out as a vegan is a lot of work. The Pasta Bolognese is good, but I've wasn't wired Wowed,especially for $22. There were a few mushrooms. A big chick of tomato, and a few pieces of zucchini. The focaccia and olive oil and balsamic was excellent. Seriously. I'd cons here just for that. I also ordered the Italian Mule. This is amaretto, limoncello, lime and ginger beer. This is such a wonderful of mixture of flavors.

The food was absolutely fantastic as well as the atmosphere and service. I have been living in Chicago for three years and have had a lot of very authentic Italian food and this is right up there with the best of them. Additionally, I was home visiting from Chicago and went to eat here with my family. I mistakenly left my purse at the restaurant when I had to fly to Chicago the next day. I reached out via voicemail and the comments email the next morning when I realized, and the owner personally emailed me back and met me (on his day off when the restaurant was closed!) to return my bag so I could head back to Chicago on time. Acts of kindness like that are hard to come by, and just make the restaurant ten times better. I can't wait to eat here again and will definitely recommend this restaurant to everyone I know!

Well for those getting to the Second page of the Piatto menu Pasta and Mains For those trying to order pasta ...... don't follow us who made the mistake to order the bolognese .... you would think you can't mess this up ...... a good plate of Italian spag. Bol.!!!! but you really can at "pi-atto"!Supposedly spaghetti and sauce under the name bolognese...can be transformed to partly cooked osso bucco lumps of meat so called a short rib! And mixed with inch wide pappardelle pasta! No! Does not work, Not enough sauce, the meat is too chunky and the pasta too much ribbon and not enough flavor! We did not get 4" wide four pronged pitch forks - forks with tynes wide enough to be able to twiddle one inch pasta! Adding in pancetta did not help and the result is $22.00 of "dog food" served in a bowl shaped like one that a dog would eat from. The Piatto chef seems to have missed the mince the meat, adding mushroom or truffle or flavouring the medium size pasta....or adding cheese! And there was no parmigiana cheese offered at the table and no black pepper and not enough of these in the dish....and not a hint of garlic! Don't know whose long dead Italian grandmothers recipe this was but this recipe should have been buried with her! (See Bolognese research below) Three of us had a couple of bites and left the rest ..... which no doubt will be 'recycled' but for 3 x $22.00 for $66.00 of main course it was awful and sad to see food prepared in such a way and wasted I gave up at this time and read up on Italian sauces like Bolognese and other locations fine dining! While friends tried the desserts. Well it appears the blackberry sorbet, was awful it was more like a chemical cleaner.... the chef said the machine was new! The sorbet was removed and a replacement provided but it And the other desserts looked like portions for pixies! Priced high, served to leave the profit for the owners, no value for the diner, taste off the plate So having had in over two hours one gnocchi, one bit of short rib, and two bites of inedible bbq short rib bolognese and two sips of long gone dull unfruitful red wine ......and a couple of Peronis .....emerged suitably fleeced for over $100.00 a head into fresh air. (What was that smell...chemical wash ...mixed with bbq.....was the chef cooking for his Sunday business venture as the food being cooked making that smell did not come out to the restaurant Can't see this being a lasting venture as is, and can't recommend it, there must be better ways to spend the short time left before the eternal rest in the Columbarium, but if you want to do a trial run of what rest would be with an empty bar and minimal food to eat...go for it. Note: My research confirmed Bolognese The earliest documented recipe for a meat-based sauce served with pasta comes from late 18th century Imola, near Bologna. Pellegrino Artusi published a recipe for a meat sauce characterized as being bolognese in his cookbook published in 1891. Artusi's recipe, which he called Maccheroni alla bolognese, is thought to derive from the mid 19th century when he spent considerable time in Bologna (maccheroni being a generic term for pasta, both dried and fresh Bolognese sauce called for predominantly lean veal filet along with pancetta, butter, onion, and carrot. The meats and vegetables were to be finely minced, cooked with butter until the meats browned, then covered and cooked with broth. Artusi commented that the taste could be made even more pleasant by adding small pieces of dried mushroom, a few slices of truffle, or chicken liver cooked with the meat and diced. As a final touch, he also suggested adding half a glass of cream to the sauce when it was completely done to make it taste even smoother. Artusi recommended serving this sauce with a medium size pasta ("horse teeth") made from durum wheat. The pasta was to be made fresh, cooked until it was firm, and then flavored with the sauce and Parmigiano cheese Hmmmmmm. The Piatto chef seems to have missed the mince the meat, adding mushroom or truffle or flavouring the medium size pasta....or adding cheese!

Came for a work event so limited menu but still very good. The appetizers were so delicious. Service was fast for our large group

After waiting for awhile to be seated...even after 4 people made eye contact we were finally seated. This place caters to those that have been coming there for years, not for those that are looking for a great Italian place to eat. Watching others getting their orders taken before ours, drinks first, and food first was a little upsetting. The food, yeah it's nothing to write home about. For the amount that I paid for a dinner....I would save my money and go somewhere else.

We had a reservation for 8 people at 8:15 pm on a Friday, and it was a full dinner crowd. The atmosphere was more upscale than I expected. Unfortunately our service was very slow, however all of the food was really good. Our drinks took forever to arrive. The complimentary bread took well over a half hour, and we started eating after 9. I enjoyed my seafood risotto very much. My husband's ravioli was slightly overcooked but had a great flavor. I also tried the pork sogu which was yummy too. I think there is some room for improvement overall, but it's worth giving a try.

This was top notch service, food and environment. The ravioli was amazing as was the scallops and tiramisu

everything we've ever tried has been wonderful-salmon, pasta delicious! But the Brandy ice is worth the drive!

FYI - they are only open in the evenings. They do take reservations which might not be a bad idea on weekends. Business dinner on a Tuesday night and served in one of their private rooms. Menu was set up by the business hosting us so my review is based on maybe I was disappointed I didn't get to try what I wanted. It's a nice looking place with a great looking bar and the seating looked nice and comfy. But we had a private room very tastefully decorated and seated all 12 of us. Waiter was nice, efficient and professional and I am sorry that I don't remember his name. Ok, business dinner menu was 3 plates of appetizers, one with roasted gnocchi (pecorino romano & lemon thyme butter) tasty. One with Ravioli (ricotta/fontina/parmigiano reggiano/walnut pesto) walnut pesto was good. Each ravioli was probably 2 x 2. 3rd plate was Arancini (aborio rice/parmigiano-reggiano; pomodoro sauce. I had never had Arancini (deep fried rice balls filled w/cheese) so to me they were alright. They may have been brilliant, but not having them before I could be wrong. I've only seen big ones on TV and these were golf ball shaped, but they were an appetizer so that size makes sense. We had 4 choices for our entree. They had a fish, beef, pork and chicken option for us to choose. I chose the Pork Sugo (pork ragu/homemade rigatoni pasta/pecorino romano). The fish option was Seared Salmon, beef option was 8oz grilled filet which was pronounced as wonderful by my dining neighbor. Chicken was Chicken Parmigiana. The entrees based on the preplanned menu came with a small caesar salad. Just the right size. Pork Sugo something else I had neither eaten before and not heard of it. The homemade pasta was cooked beautifully the pork very tender. The Sugo to me was a bit sweet, but not having eaten it before it's suppose to be that way. Large bowl of the good stuff. Took it home and had it a few days later and it was still pretty good. Dessert choices were Espresso Panna Cotta and Tiramisu. I chose something else I hadn't had before and that was the Panna Cotta. Very, very good. Not overly sweet with the Expresso gelaton. Right size for a dessert after a 4 course meal. We were never rushed. It was a casual but fancy dining experience. I would highly recommend that you ask for salt and pepper. Some of the dishes, mine included needed seasoning. There were no salt/pepper shakers on the dining table. Water glasses were kept full. Most of us had a cocktail for dinner. And I have to say my choice of an Italian Margarita was not a good choice for me or with my dinner. It was a good experience. Quiet enough for us to talk. Staff was excellent. When an extra person showed up they didn't panic, but quickly brought another chair and set up. I'd go back so I could try what I wanted.
