    Ten-year review update: La Piazza is still excellent but now that there are more locations, there are differences between them and still room for improvement compared to sister restaurant Mama Theresa's Garden City Park. If this is your first time, the two restaurants are very similar, i.e., they have the sweetest, most balanced marinara, making any dish with them delightful (see my chicken parm photos below). But since we're longtime customers, let's talk improvements: The modern chic. It only works where the function isn't impeded. Look at this video of the dressing pourer. It goes everywhere but the salad. The square plates aren't great for the smaller tables. You keep every inch of that place packed, so why lose space on corners when the rounded dishes work so well? The serviceware is a step back from Mama T's.

    Excellent slice shop and Italian restaurant in Plainview long island. Got their plain round pie well done and a buffalo chicken pie and both were excellent. Undercarriage was well done and ingredients were high quality.

    So, a few buddies of mine highly recommended "La Piazza" in Plainview. They said this place was the best. Because of that glowing recommendation, I had to check it out; but be careful what you recommend. I arrived to a huge parking he lot, so there was plenty of space to park. The outside of the building looked a bit strange, they went with an older look. But inside was another story. I barely walked in before being greeted by the staff. They were so friendly. We joked a bit before I placed my order. I was a little shocked about the price per pizza, but I was hungry so I had to eat. They charged more for credit card swipes, but this is supposed to be amazing pizza. I sat down to eat and to my surprise, none of my friends are accurate. Wait! Hear me out! The Buffalo Slice, had no buffalo flavor..so with that slice, it was bland. I quickly moved on to the Marsala slice. Again, nothing special. I had some spots that were dry. Everything said and done, I would recommend just getting a cheese slice, Instead of a specialty. I mean, I wonder if they make a good regular?

    Great pour at a great price

    Just to begin a Suzanne is an amazing server. Always greets us with a beautiful smile and great conversation. The bread basket arrives shortly after and its filled with warm crispy Italian bread, garlic knots, Flatbread and pizza pillows. Weboth opted to try a special. I went with the stuffed rigatoni in a pink sauce with fresh basil and it was delicious. The rigatoni was not overstuffed just right. The basil cream sauce was not too heavy which was a delight. My wife chose the halibut in a light leek sauce which was awesome it came with a side of delicious rice pilaf with carrot, corn and zucchini pieces. We keep coming back because of the specials they always come up with something unique and tasty. Great service, great pour and great portions at a very reasonable price for today's standards. Please give it a try sometime and you will NOT be disappointed. Cindan

    Love Italian food. Love this restaurant…read more We went out for an evening dinner and one of us being in the mood for Italian, we gave this place a shout. Excellent call. It's a white tablecloth restaurant that serves some of the best Italian food I've had. And I've had a lot. The dinner starts with some terrific rolls and oil. Had to ask for some ground pepper and cheese, which they quickly oblige. The arugula salad may be the best arugula salad I have ever had. Large, fresh, the roasted portobello mushrooms and roasted peppers were outstanding, the goat cheese and balsamic dressing were just perfect. I had the eggplant Parmesan. I may have had better, but this one is right up there. The portion size was large, the sauce was outstanding, and I chose the angel hair pasta as my side, and that too was terrific. Exquisite evening definitely would go back there again.

    I'm used to their marketplaces and tiny cafe. That's why when I walked in here, I was blown away…read more Open kitchen concept and plenty of seating with tons of windows in an even more open dining area. Vito comes from New Hyde Park to Plainview on Friday and according to the friend I grabbed lunch with, he makes the best pizza. And he did. We got his tricolor pizza which had marinara, vodka and pesto sauces which dressed burrata and pepperonis. Before our pizza we started with Capalleni Cakes and the Apple Gorgonzola salad. Both were incredible. You can tell how fresh their ingredients are. Maybe they came straight from the market. Seated by a window we had the best lunch with the best service. My friend introduced me to Vito and we complimented his pizza making skills. Would definitely visit again at either location.

    The food was great. The ambiance ok. Waiter was nice…read more We had the eggroll appetizer which had sausage, broccoli rabe, ricotta served with marinara. I got the chicken picata which came a la carte and a side of pesto cavatelli. The cavatelli was fresh pasta and the portion of pasta was large for a side I think they gave me just a regular pasta meal. I tried the Italian sunrise which I didn't like at all. My husband had the pesto gnocchi and enjoyed his meal. We finished with the cookies and cream mousse which was light. My cappuccino was delicious. My only complaints are my jacket and clothes smelled like fried food because we were sitting close to the kitchen which I didn't like of course. My leftover chicken was not entire meal that was leftover which was disappointing.

    This was hands down one of the most frustrating and disappointing experiences my family has ever…read morehad at a restaurant. On March 29th, we hosted my grandmother's 85th birthday here with about 30 people. This wasn't some last-minute reservation--we planned everything months in advance directly with Sal. From the very beginning, we made it clear that the entire reason we chose this restaurant was for their private room. My grandmother had attended another party there and loved that space--it's private, has its own bathroom, and was perfect since we had a lot of kids attending. Sal explicitly told us there was no minimum or maximum for the room and guaranteed it to us. Based on that promise, we booked the party. As the date got closer, we even upgraded the package--paying extra per person for an additional course. Only then did Sal casually slip in that we would NOT be getting the private room. So if we hadn't called to add that upgrade, we likely wouldn't have found out until the day of the event. When we questioned him, he suddenly claimed there was a "minimum" requirement of people to secure the room--something he NEVER mentioned before. Then he tried to say there was a contract stating we weren't guaranteed the room... except we were never given any contract. No paperwork. No receipt for our deposit. Nothing. Completely unprofessional and shady. A few days later, when my dad followed up, Sal finally admitted the truth: another, larger party booked the room. Fine--we understand businesses prioritize money. But don't LIE and promise something you can't deliver. Don't book us under false pretenses and then backtrack with excuses and made-up policies. We were then told we'd get the corner, semi-private part of the restaurant space with three tables. That didn't happen either. Instead, we were crammed into the front, basically in the middle of the restaurant. It was chaotic, loud, and completely inappropriate for a large family gathering--especially with young kids running around and my 85-year-old grandmother struggling just to get to the bathroom. To make matters worse, when we calmly expressed our disappointment afterward, Sal didn't even have the decency to have a conversation. He literally put his hand up and said, "I'm done with this conversation," and walked away, leaving his waiter to handle it--despite the fact that he was the one who mishandled everything. The lack of accountability, professionalism, and basic respect was unbelievable. We felt completely taken advantage of and misled from start to finish. This was supposed to be a special milestone celebration, and instead it turned into a stressful and upsetting experience for our entire family. We will absolutely NEVER be coming back, and I strongly advise anyone considering booking an event here to think twice. If they can do this to a party planned months in advance, they can do it to anyone.

    An Italian restaurant located on the main street of Downtown Farmingdale. Came on a weekday evening…read morefor early dinner and found street parking out in front. The place has a good amount of seating area including high tops, low booths, bar table, and a private room. There is also two unisex restrooms. I came with my boyfriend before an event at Farmingdale State College and we were on a time crunch. I made a reservation on OpenTable but it was not busy at all. We got greeted and seated immediately upon walking in. Then, a server came with ice water for the both of us before our actual waiter came to introduce herself and ask if we were ready to order. Shortly after ordering, the waitress brought us a plate of complimentary bread that comes with garlic on top and olive oil dip on bottom. We got the fried calamari which was perfectly battered (not too little nor too thick) and fried perfectly (not too burnt nor too pale). The taste was great and went well with the marinara sauce. The Clams Oreganata were delicious too - very meaty and flavorful with a nice sauce and lemon to squeeze on top. The Clams Vespa is very unique and creamy. It reminds me of a white Alfredo sauce with baked clams. They had a huge variety of drinks and it was hard for me to choose, but the lady recommended me the Sicilian Kiss which is a strawberry flavored cocktail. It is supposed to be on the sweeter side but the alcohol was strong too. As for our main entree, we got the Papperdelle Bolognese which was a veal, pork, beef ragu on ribbon pasta. Very well cooked and the taste and texture went perfectly together. We were so full, but never skip on dessert! I'm personally not a fan of cheesecake, but they have creme brulee cheesecake and rainbow cookie cheesecake which I would have loved to try if it wasn't for the cheesecake. But I was happy to find out I could order the rainbow cookie gelato that usually comes with the cheesecake. That was yummy! The texture reminded me of the cake mix Ice-Cream from Carvel and the flavor is not too strong. Overall, great vibes and service. Will definitely be back to the the pizza and other pastas.

    Service is great and fast. Large space, larger than you'd think…read more Menu is large and they have something for just about anyone. Food is good! Good spot for dinner/drinks on Main St.

Food was delicious and the drinks were fabulous. Thanksgiving Eve met up with my date at Nunzi's It was giving "Hot Stuff" -- literally. I walk in with my date, and before my coat even unbuttons, Donna Summer herself is serenading me like I'm about to strut down a disco runway. Perfect timing. We were the first ones in the restaurant, which honestly made me feel like they opened the whole establishment just for my convenience. The host said, "Pick any table." Baby, don't threaten me with a good time. I saw that corner booth--cute, cozy, and prime real estate for flirting like I'm auditioning for a romantic comedy--and I claimed it like the last good parking spot at Target. The vibe? Oh, this restaurant is so my ministry. Trendy, modern, dimly lit like they're doing me a personal favor. If you're a social media fanatic like me. The entire décor is basically screaming, "Make a reel, post a story, take a selfie sis." The soundtrack? Disco, 70s and 80s R&B, a sprinkle of house. My favorite genres. The stuff that makes you want to shimmy your shoulders while pretending you're not checking out your date's jawline. The drinks? Oh honey... I ordered a blueberry lavender margarita because lavender is my personality at this point. My date got a banana Jameson old fashioned. I asked for a sip, took a sip, then instantly contemplated snatching his whole glass and telling him to order something else. It was that good. I asked the waiter about the pineapple infused vodka. "Can you taste the alcohol?" He said, "No, and that's the problem." I said, "Say less." Sold. LMAO. Had it in a martini fashion. Now for the food. We started with the Oh My Garlic Bread. Except... Oh My, what happened? The cheese was barely melted and the bread wasn't toasted enough. I wanted feral, unhinged, cheese-pull, toasted bread madness. I got "this could've been great but someone clocked out early." Sadness. It did come with a side of their delicious sauce and spicy vodka sauce. But THEN... that fried burrata came out like Beyoncé at the Superbowl. Melty, gooey, fried perfection. Cheese is my favorite food group and that burrata had me emotionally compromised. We also got Grandma's Meatballs. Delicious and they held their own and in chunky tomato sauce, with a dollop of ricotta? Mama mia, yes. For pasta, the server suggested the spicy rigatoni or the linguine bolognese. We went bolognese, and baby... that plate was giving comfort, warmth, cozy blanket energy. Delicious. Finished the night with the chocolate chip cookie sundae. Great ending, but listen--at an Italian restaurant, my middle-aged spirit WANTED tiramisu or a cannoli. I'm traditional like that. Overall? Five glittery stars. I will absolutely be back--probably dragging my work bestie for a happy hour where we judge men and eat fried cheese.
