La Piazza captures the spirit of an Italian trattoria envisioned by Kristjan Lulaj. Our establishment pays tribute to the essence of the iconic Italian eateries that thrived in mid-20th century New York. These were places where exquisitely prepared, mouthwatering cuisine graced tables in an ambiance that effortlessly merged elegance, comfort, and approachability. While our culinary offerings tip their hat to this rich heritage, they also draw inspiration from the contemporary and future culinary virtuosos and techniques. Signature dishes such as Seafood Salad, Linguini Vongole, Zuppa Di Pesce, Chicken Scarpariello, and Chicken Parmesan are taken to new heights of flavor and presentation.

Overall great experience. They accommodated a last minute addition to our reservation on Valentine’s Day with no problem. We loved how the restaurant was setup. The beer, food and service was great. A little pricy, but everywhere you go is pricy these days. The difference was the quality of the food and beer. It was worth it and would go again.

Would earn 5 stars if they can take steps to absorb the noise. Not bad on this particular evening, but past experience has been too noisy to have a table conversation. Otherwise, excellent.
