    Staff did an amazing job helping me with a surprise birthday dinner for my wife and friends. Food was delicious and service was warm and friendly. Thank you for making the special night memorable for us.

    We really enjoyed our dinner at Piatti. The food was all good. Service was fine. Noise level got too high to hear conversation. When we go back, I will have to try the patio to avoid the noise level of the other tables’ talking.

    It’s a beautiful place I sat outside. There were a few people waiting when I got here but they sat me fast. My server was Monica, she was nice but it took over 20 mins to get the lines for my water and my salad. She never came back to the table once after bringing my water and after I sat it took about 10 mins for her to come. The plates on the table were dirty….the service just wasn’t there. She was nice but the service honestly was terrible I sat with dirty dishes at the table for over 20 mins waiting for her to come back I couldn’t order drinks bc she never came back. (Her service did get better towards the end! She provided a great desert recommendation ) I ordered the: mesclun salad- it was amazing! Very flavorful. Lemon herb half jidori chicken- it was good, the chicken tasted amazing with the sauce that was on it. The mashed potatoes definitely needed salt and pepper. Tiramisu-AMAZING (I am biased bc I love tiramisu but it was honestly really good) Budino di mela- looks and is very similar to bread pudding. Think apple bread pudding. It came out cold as well. Espresso- came out cold the first go round
