We were a party of 4 on a recent Sunday evening with a reservation. While we were seated rather promptly, our waiter did not take our order until 25 minutes later, and we did not get our meals served until another 45 minutes after that. We were told that the kitchen was backed-up due to a large number of take-out orders. Despite the fact that our meals were good (we were very hungry at that point), we will avoid returning to this place. No meal is worth that very long wait. read more

My friend ordered a ton of La Piazza for the Ranger game the other night. This was like to 50th time I have had La P in my life and I feel that they are a strong 4 (always consistent). Here are some of the things that I tried that night and my reviews of them. I had some of a calzone. It was crazy good. I had a half of a buffalo chicken roll and that was way better then I expected. I'm not a big blue cheese fan but I feel like they had the perfect amount mixed in. I would definitely order that again. I also had a piece of chicken parm and this was good (nothing too special). I also had a half a rice ball and that was tasty as well. I had the leftover fried clalamaries that were floating around and they were good (not hot a crispy as they were sitting but still good). I also had pasta in pink sauce which was solid. My friend also ordered a shrimp parm hero (heard it was the bomb), eggplant rolitini (didn't hear feedback by my dad loves their eggplant parm), and a grilled chicken hero (looked good). Altogether I enjoyed the food. La Piazza is a 4 star place because it is always consistent and good. read more

Came here for dinner last night with a large group of friends. The restaurant accommodated all of us quite nicely and we were mostly all satisfied with our courses. My only complaint is that they didn't have ranch dressing at all, and offered my friend caesar in place of blue cheese for her buffalo chicken salad lol. But otherwise it was very nice and the service was decent. I could tell the staff wanted us to get out as we were there for about 2 1/2 hours but they didn't verbalize it and we weren't there past closing and tipped well! Thanks for hosting! read more

HORRIBLE HORRIBLE service. I made a phone order for pick up and was told 20 minutes, I arrived after 20 minutes and my food still wasn't ready. I had to wait an additional 35 minutes for my food to finally be ready and when I confronted them about this they didn't seem to care at all unwilling to help, then after all this time waiting for them to prepare my food you would think it would be hot and fresh which it wasn't at all. It was cold and soggy. Extremely disappointed. Will never be ordering from this location again. They need to train at the Merrick location. That location is on point. Stay away from plainview location!!!!!! read more

Best Italian food in Plainview. Hands down. Always fresh and tasty. Chicken parmigiana platter or heroes are the best. Salads are delicious, pizza scrumptious. Not cheap, but you get what you pay for. read more

Sooo I've eaten from this place several times but tonight really makes me wanna write a review. I really hate the staff there. The guys at the counter act like they've never seen girls before and their arrogance is through the roof! For those reasons I rarely go there. I called to place a "take out" order and the woman who answers the phone proceeded to take my order to only half way through tell me they don't take phone orders for "slices". And that I have to come in to order. last time I checked "take out" meant you can do either or. Call to order or go in. That's the first I've heard of that in any pizza place. There was another incident when my boyfriend and I went in to order and he wanted an Italian Hero. They acted like they didn't know what that was and was he referring to a loaf of bread. Ummm really? That place just employs a bunch of assholes. And quite honestly their food isn't that good for me to deal with their bullshit service every again! It's fuckin pizza. Slow your roll!! read more

Horrible place !! Two bad experiences . Should have learned from the first disaster . Ordered food for 7 people and when we went to pick it up they couldn't find the order. Take your business elsewhere . If I could give it a 0 I would . read more

Food is ok.. Service has always been iffy... Anyway, we went here tonight, was told a 20 min wait. As we sat there waiting for our seat, Someone who knew the hostess walks up and cuts the entire wait. We literally heard the hostess tell them that there were 5 people waiting, but it was ok and she would seat them first. This is rediculous when I'm sitting there with a 1 year old and a 8 month pregnant wife waiting in line! Needless to say, we left. I have no tolerance for shady business practices! Don't trust The blonde hostess with acne! read more

Working at an Italian restaurant myself, my mother had quite a terrible experience with the manager on duty yesterday. Based on what my family went through on their ANNIVERSARY day, I feel this should be shared. Below is the exact google review, feel free to look it up there as well: This would have been a 5 star however the manager ruined my experience. Beware of scam. I used to come here years ago. My family and I decided on lunch for my anniversary. The waitress was a delight and very sweet. After having a delicious meal I was presented an incorrect bill. Lunch is until 4pm. We came in way before and finished our meal by 415pm. They charged me the dinner prices claiming to have provided me dinner portions. I explained I came for lunch therefor should have been charge lunch prices. I was told by the manager it is the guest's responsibility to let the waitress know whether you wish lunch or dinner portions at lunch time. Is it fair to say you can order lunch portions at dinner and you will be charged the lunch costs. Oh no...that is not the case. They assumed I wanted dinner portions and over charged me a full $8 more per plate!! This is not a normal practice in restaurants and should be disclosed in the beginning. The manager was rude. I will think twice before returning due to this obnoxious manager. I tried to explain that I'm a manager in the guest services field and this practice is unethical. He stated he don't care and it's not important. So In the end... the food was great but make sure they don't overcharged you because they made an assumption. read more

Food is good, but service is terrible. Both times I went there, there was no line, yet I waited several minutes before anyone spoke to me, while servers stood around talking and texting. read more

My first time eating at La Piazza Plainview and I will go back for sure. Great food and service! Our server Francesca was amazing, super Friendly and spot on with her recommendation! I love the Caprino Salad and look forward to visiting very soon! read more

In these trying times of living with the Covid-19 virus pandemic I wanted to let everyone know what a wonderful restaurant La Piazza is and what a wonderful manager (Anthony) is. Unfortunately my Mom is on a ventilator in Plainview Hospital suffering from the virus for over a week now and the ICU staff has been amazing giving our family daily updates with patience since we can not be there with her. (quarantined) We wanted to do something nice for these "front line" healthcare workers and decided to send them dinner from one of our favorite restaurants. When I called La Piazza, Anthony first had some kind words for my Mom and then helped me work out a great catered menu for about 20 ICU staff at the hospital. He made suggestions, stopped me from ordering too much (my inclination - always) and suggested food that would be good for people I really don't know but covered all the bases. Anthony then gave me a discount because he wanted to show his appreciation as well. He didn't have to do that - but he wanted to and he did. The staff at the hospital LOVED THE FOOD and were so appreciative so I wanted to thank Anthony and the restaurant for helping us make these selfless people's day a little better. This is a local restaurant and we all need to help them out by ordering from them to keep them going. These are the type of people who are willing to help us and I want people to remember how great these folks are when they get hungry and are trying to decide what to eat. The food is awesome as well!! Thank you Anthony and team. Much appreciated and keep my Mom in your prayers. We'll all get through this - together!! read more

Food is always good but why do the punks at the counter feel the need to be so rude? I almost wanna ask them why so nasty! I work in an Italian restaurant with a pizza counter in Commack and our counter guys are always nice! Maybe these guys should learn what customer service is. read more

Awful. The service and hospitality is awful. The food is mediocre at best and way over priced. They pizza is good, but the portions have gotten so tiny. 1 regular slice is almost like a 1/2 a slice at any other pizza place. I've been a costumer for over 15 years and it's sad to say it gone way down hill. I'm done going back there and over paying for crap. Oh and their wine list is garbage, they really don't offer drinkable wine. read more

C'mon, there are so many pizza places in the area that are better. How about Raimos, Mario's, Bella Vista, the list goes on. If you just need mass in your belly consisting of sauce, dough and cheese then this should suffice. If you want something delicious, go somewhere else. read more

Has seriously changed since Phil's departure. No real management. Service has suffered.

I order from this place quite often. Only because there are no pizzerias In the area that offer smaller rustic 12" size pizzas. Food is very mediocre and way overpriced. Most people get their first impression of a restaurant by judging the bread.. The bread they serve is cheap and a poor excuse. My order gets screwed up 7 out of 10 times. The place is built like the Taj Mahal and their computer system looks top notch...so why..... why every single time I call I have to waste 3 minutes telling the girl my name and phone number? Not to mention another 3 Minutes repeating the exact same order I place 2x a week...shouldn't you know this information? This computer technology to do so existed in 2001 when I ordered Italian from my old neighborhood .. as for the positive, the staff is very nice and so are the managers. Orders are executed extremely fast. While I hate to make these comments, they are honest. I have heard that there are new owners there...so this is not their fault...they just inherited this place and it's flaws. I just hope they are smart enough to slowly fix them. read more

I will never order from La Piazza ever again. The person on the phone was extremely disrespectful..NEVER had anyone ever show such disrespect..food was not only delivered late..but we threw it out because it was delivered cold and stale. Sad..that I will tell everyone to never order from them again. Too many other places I can order from. read more

We have been going to La Piazza for many years. We love their salads and friendly waitstaff. The servers are helpful and knowledgeable. Francesca, is our favorite waitress. She is always happy to see us, is attentive to our needs and always accommodating of our changes and special requests. read more

Amazing caprese pizza, delicious plain pizza and some of the best garlic knots I've had on Long Island. I often take my lunch breaks here. La Piazza's staff is always friendly and helpful and the place is always kept clean. They've got wireless internet to boot! read more

Food is really good actually. However, I have ordered from them twice now and it was for delivery. The delivery was late by a half hour. I ordered these lunches for business purposes. Their delivery is NOT reliable. The crazy things was I called 2 hours ahead of time and the delivery was literally a cross the street. They tried to tell me that there may have been trafic or an accident. I even told them this was impossible because it was across the street. They seemed to not really own the mess up. They will not be getting my business again. read more

Great bread, great service. Very good house wine. I had the Rigatoni Florantini very very good. It was a great way to end a rough day read more

La Piazza - Pizza Near Me - Plainview, New York

Buffalo Chicken slice is a must-have. The Pecan salad is amazing with their balsamic dressing. Most of their food is delicious but IMO way over-priced for most items on the menu like for example, the Chicken Francese... I can order a Chicken Francese from Mario's Pizza down the block and only pay $13/$14 and still be just as delicious. $22 for an order of chicken in lemon butter white wine sauce is absolute robbery, among the rest of the over-priced entrees. Staff is nice but only a handful... Some can be rude, especially over the phone when placing orders. read more

I was here eating with my family attempting to have a nice dinner, until i was interrupted while i saw a cockroach on my table. the waitress acted completely normal and she went to talk to what she said was the owner and he didn't even come to my table to help. i have been here a couple times before and each time i remind myself why i don't want to come back read more

Completely overrated. A ton of better pizzerias in the area. Villa Monte's to name one. Do yourself a favor if you need to eat in this parking lot, I suggest the Mixed Grill.. read more

My favorite thing from here is the bread. Which if you haven't had it, you have to because it is NO JOKE! The other food is pretty good and the servers were quite nice and helpful. I highly recommend this place. read more

They do not deliver on the weekends... Who does not deliver only on the weekdays... Get with the times.

ComplVery good food, but their regular slice of pizza is very small. They seem to get smaller each time, so it was time to complain. Ridiculous. They also are not very accommodating. They wouldn't substitute tomato for their pecans in one of their salads.There was an additional charge for the tomato. cyszo5-mintot-bYwcox read more

Ordered lunch for myself and 2 coworkers, we got the food and everything was delicious. I was pleasantly surprised, even though it was a little pricey. Then I check my bank account and realize they charged me for the full order, when I specifically told the girl who took the order to charge my card only for my order and the rest would be paid in cash. This place charged me for the full order anyway in addition to us giving the delivery guy $30 in cash to make up for my coworkers orders...I called to speak to the manager and find out why I was charged the full amount when I specifically said only charge the card for MY order...manager was Rude and unprofessional and said there was nothing he could do to help. So they ended up making an extra $40 off me. Needless to say I will never order again from these unprofessional thieves. read more

Coming from Utah this was excellent authentic New York pizza! The gluten free pizza was excellent too (so I was told by my celiac companion)! read more

This is anything but refined Italian cuisine. It's no Danny Meyer or Scott Conant, but growing up in Jersey with an Italian uncle, this hits as close to home as it can get! I love LOVE LOVE their whole wheat Margherita pie. If you love the flavor of basil but don't want to feel like a giraffe eating leaves, it has MAJOR basil flavor. The tomato sauce is AWESOME. I like the whole wheat crust because it's crunchy. The regular crust is also very good but a bit doughier and chewier than the whole wheat crust. It's super super thin crust - just amazing. So amazing, I crave it every week. Calamari Arrabbiata - I order it every time. It's sooooooo goood! Basically, you can't go wrong with anything that is tomato sauce based here. They make a good tomato sauce. The calamari is tender. I don't feel like I'm swallowing a whole chunk of squid down cause I can't chew it all the way down. I like to unscrew the crushed red peppers and add more kick to this app. Linguini Di Mare (white) This is always consistent and balances off all the tomato saucy items I get off the menu. The pasta doesn't taste like it's been freshly cooked (it always tastes like it's been pre made) but overall, the flavors are very good. Rigatoni Florentini - like I said, anything that has a tomato sauce base here it awesome. The chicken is very tender - topped with mozzarella, it perfection. When I crave this place, it's usually a pizza and calamari bubble in my head that makes me come back for more. The service is also very snooty here. It's basically, throw down your order and run off before you can speak. I feel like the girls here roll their eyes if you ask them questions. I think LI in general has very poor service in their restaurants. read more

Been here a bunch of times and the service when you sit down gets worse and worse. They dont pay attention to your orders, or listen when you ask for more beverages and the service has gone down hill. There only salvation are the friendly guys at the front serving pizza. They always are helpful and courteous. I dont know what the women servers in the back are doing but they are all horrendous. They eat and hang out without catering to the customer. Ill only be taking out from now on. read more

The Chicken bacon ranch tasted like a subway sandwich but in a really good way and you can never go wrong with the buffalo chicken

Went today for lunch. Food was good but when the bill came I had a gift certificate for $200 and they told me it could not be used because it was for the La Piazza in Plainview and was a different owner. I do not think that is true. Feel scammed!! Paid the bill and will never go back. Manager just stood there and said nothing very upsetting. will never return. Place is run by creeps. read more

I could eat mussels fra diavolo + their house salad everyday for the rest of my life. DO IT!

Very good pizza. Excellent quality. Friendly staff, quick service. Also a dining room with a full menu, but for a slice of pizza to go, one of the very best on LI. read more

A really cute place to bring family for a good Italian dinner! I came for takeout, but the place was PACKED and for good reason. The Crispino pizza we got was good--thin crust that was crispy but still chewy. We also got a vegan veggie pizza which I thought was one of the best out there that I've tried (I've seen a good share, my roomies were both vegan!) They loaded the pizza with fresh veggies: spinach, broccoli, onions, peppers, mushrooms, the works! I'd definitely be okay with coming back and eating at the sit-down portion. But if you don't want to wait, they have a very efficient takeout if you call ahead. read more

Best damn buffalo slice I've had in Long Island. Crispy in all the right parts, and the goat cheese makes the flavor pop.

Dined here this past Friday night, which was my second time here. Place is always crowded and seems to be very popular. Didn't love my meal first time around but I assumed might've been what I had ordered. Our waitress was very friendly very accommodating but unfortunately the kitchen didn't live up to her service. We ordered an eggplant Parmesan and a linguine la mer in a spicy fra diavlo sauce. Starter salads were excellent but that's where the meal went bad. Our entrées arrived and while mine looked right my wife's eggplant Parmesan turned out to be a baked ziti. At first she didn't realize it was a big ziti because it look like it might've been eggplant parm. My meal definitely look right but my first spoonful of the sauce was anything but A fra diavlo. I Started eating my meal when I noticed that the muSsels in the meal were very sandy and gritty. The shrimp was a little too chewy like it have been severely overcooked. Shortly after the waitress arrived and told us that we had the wrong meals. Apparently our meals were for another table. When are correct meals arrived my dish tasted like it had been rushed and some of the clams and mussels were undercooked. The sauce was quite tasteless. My wife's eggplant Parmesan was mediocre at best. With the exception of the server who is very nice and trying to be accommodating the meal was a disaster. We won't be back read more

i was out here on business first thing i noticed was how friendly the people were. we were on pacific time, so strolled in there around 10 pm one of the only people in there as they were cleaning up. they still served us some great pizza and pasta. the bread that came up was still warm and toasty, and everyone was STILL friendly and didn't rush us out. we really had no idea what was good to eat out there, and saw they had good ratings on yelp. so thanks la piazza for feeding us business guys on a tuesday night! read more
