I've been a long time customer and I can honestly say the quality of the food and service has deteriorated drastically. I just ordered from there this evening and chose to pick it up because whenever I have it delivered some thing is always missing. I ordered the penne à la vodka this evening and it's not edible. I don't know if there was a mistake when they prepared the sauce but it is horrible. The only thing I taste is onion. I cannot eat it. Very disappointed. I've tried calling La Piazza to express this, but unfortunately I was not able to speak with anybody there. read more

Came here a couple weeks ago with two of my girl friends. We were seated right away. The front of the house was really crowded but it was the people taking to go orders. My friends and I were really excited to try this place. We each had a glass of wine. The service was quick and friendly. I honestly dont remember my exact dish but I ordered off the specials menu. My pasta was stuffed with ricotta cheese and was so yummy. read more

First timer here... please note that I had a severely burned mouth but my fiancé asked to take me out to dinner to a new place so I told myself I need to push through the pain. The bread was warm and amazing, I never eat bread when I go out really but I couldn't stop, and I totally forgot about how much my mouth hurt bc it was so yummy. Their penne ala vodka was THE BEST SAUCE. I CANT STAND that any time I order pasta anywhere I am always so disappointed with how bland the sauce is but oh my gosssh it was sooo delicious the flavor was so well-spiced I would drink it. The chicken madiera was a dish I noticed at Cheesecake Factory & I love it so I had to try it. I was blown away. Big portion so I brought it home, and finished it as soon as I got home. I want to try more of their things in the very near future. Thank you! read more

Ordered at 4:34pm and it came at 6:22pm. Way too long. Food was ice cold. For as good as the food is here, I rather eat somewhere else with better service. Don't waste your money here. Happens all the time to me. read more

La Piazza's popularity perplexes me. While the pizza is on the better side, it's restaurant side is pricey, usually has a long wait and fails to do Italian food justice. The pasta and entrees cost around $20 at dinnertime and around $12 during lunchtime for substantial portions that offer very little in terms of taste. I ordered the Penne Melezane and found that the penne was cooked well beyond al dente and the dish as a whole lacked any pizazz. If I had a box of pasta, an eggplant and a jar of pasta sauce I could easily make something better at home in the time it took for us to get seated and order food. The restaurant's a touch louder than average and filled with families in a cozy setting. Because of the constant movement from the pizzeria out front and the kitchen in the back, the place feels hectic at all times. Looking for a better family restaurant option than the big chains. The number of similar Italian restaurants in the area do a better job at filling this niche. In summary La Piazza does well with pizza and knots, but don't bother with the restaurant, especially not for dinner. read more

Stopped here after going to the nearby bank, and was pleasantly surprised to find an excellent place for pizza! I ordered a plain slice and a white - both were very tasty - crust was thin and crispy , ingredients were very good and the sauce on the plain slice was really good. The people were friendly and helpful, the place was clean and inviting - just a great place. Would highly recommend! read more

All their pizza slices and garlic bits are amazing they have indoor seating sort of like a diner and a casual seating more like a nyc restraint just to eat quickly instead of a waiter coming to you. Food is great I recommend this place to go to if your in Plainview or nearby! read more

Salmon piccata was more like a chunk of overcooked fish in artichoke lemon soup, edible, way overpriced at $28. Caesar salad was ... well ... a tossed salad? Seriously, shredded carrots, tomato, sliced cucumber and olives. I know it's a Caesar because she repeated it back to me when I called. The cheesecake was missing. Not from the receipt ($8.50), but damned if I could find it in the bag. What a great scam. Take a phone order, mess it up, leave something out, pack it in three layers of stapled bags, cha ching, adios. Gave then two stars because at least it didn't give me food poisoning. Yet? read more

Ok so I absolutely love la piazza of bellmore/Merrick. We are a frequent customer card holder it's amazing. We were driving around for food. Where to go. We saw la piazza of plainview and said ok let's do it. Upon entering we walked to the dining area where servers and host were just standing around talking. My gf said is it seat yourself? The girl rolled her eyes and sat us without a word. The bread came and was like somebody sat on it. This was not the la piazza we were used to. The gf ordered a three combo pasta plate. Penne ala vodka, cavatelli bolognese and a rotini Mac and cheese. You can see from the pic which was the best. The Mac and cheese was amazing the flavor and creaminess. The ala vodka went barely touched as it had an overpowering onion flavor. The bolognese cavatelli were very over cooked. I decided on bolognese myself. I like that you can sub tortellini for no charge so I did it. Um well it was bland. Everything in my bowl was bland and mushy. No seasonings nada. Decided to pass on dessert as well. This is def not the la piazza I'm used to. We'll stick to bellmore/merrick read more

La piazza in Planivew is very consistent and has excellent food and their pizza was excellent. Been coming here for years ,but now their pizza is very very thin you can't even pick it up to eat ,you have to use a knife and fork ,since inflation every one is cutting back which is not fair ,also they are raising there prices though $25.00 for a pizza pie is ridiculous everyone else is $18.00 to $20.00 I don't get pizza there anymore to thin like a napkin . The food is excellent i,am giving it only four stars because of the pizza and it's price. read more

I took my staff for our holiday meal. We went for lunch on a Monday. The restaurant was busy with very few open tables. I had been their restaurant in Merrick many times and here once before. Most of the table ordered the lunch menu. They all said the food was good. I was a little upset that the waiter had to go back and ask a lot of questions. If the soup was vegetarian. If there was cheese in the dressing. He must have been new. When we established that none of the soups were vegan, we asked for just a larger house salad. I was charged the same amount as if she had gotten the lunch special and the salad was no bigger than the lunch size. The penne ala vodka was good and had lots of prosciutto. The calamari arrabiatta was good but not enough of a kick. We will give it another try read more

Not sure how I haven't written a review for La Piazza, especially since I've had their pizza over a dozen times. Everything here is delicious, but the real star is the pizza (obviously). I've had the sandwiches, calzones and rolls and while they are decent, it's nothing in comparison to their pizza. Yes, a little pricey, but well worth the splurge. The selection changes on slices, based on what they have left, but you'll definitely find something to satisfy your craving. Delicious pizza, a must try! read more

This could have went either way 3 or 4 stars... I wanted to give them another try for that 4th star. First visit 2 slices were good, nice crisp, good flavor and nice dough. Second trip (take out) had tortellini soup (great) and fettuccine alfredo (watery, lacked taste... sucked). Third trip is the review trip... chicken parm was pretty good and my buddy had slices with meatball that were FIRE (one white, one red)... will be back!!! read more

All around "meh" experience. Ordered out of here through Uber eats and the restaurant forgot a dish. No big deal, just call up and let them know right? We call and politely let them know, to which we were told that we, the customers, would have to call Uber eats ourselves, to send yet another driver to pick up the dish they forgot to put in our order. Normally, as somebody with experience in the service industry, you'd do your customers a favor and have one of your OWN drivers deliver the food, or offer a pickup, not continue doing business through a third party site that contributed no fault in the situation. We get in contact with our uber driver, who informs us that the restaurant is now saying the food was in the bag the whole time, acting clueless about the whole situation, and refusing to replace the dish. Fine. We go back and check the receipt, come to find out that the dish was in a different color font than all the other dishes that were delivered, meaning it never got rung through and confirmed in the order. We go back through the Uber site and get a refund for the one missing dish through there and finally decide to start eating the food that at least managed to get to our house. Everything was cold to lukewarm, despite having been delivered earlier than the Uber app had estimated and had remained covered the entire time through attempting to track down this one missing dish. We ordered the zuppa de cozze, which provided such a lovely dining experience as we cracked our teeth on sand every other bite. A restaurant that doesn't wash their mussels? Great!! Somehow their dressing for the Caesar salad was spicy, which could just be a difference in taste, but idk one restaurant that you have to specify you want your salad without heat. The rest of the food tasted fine, but nothing special, especially at the room temperature it arrived at. Would really remain careful about ordering from here, this was upwards of 200 dollars in dishes, and we somehow still didn't receive the quality of food someone would've expected from a chain restaurant with more dishes. Disappointed to say this restaurant has definitely gone down hill. read more

We came here last month and I forgot to post my review! Today we are back and the steak and eggs was superb - no picture could do it justice and I ate it way to fast (when it's that good there's no time for photos) Great brunch menu, good service, and now serving zabaglione!!! read more

The place used to be jumping but now the activity for this location is for the takeout line and the dining room is empty. We soon found out why. Our orders came out quickly enough and the fried mozzarella bites were good but my eggplant rollatini was mostly cheese and sauce and the eggplant had a vinegary taste to it like it was preserved instead of it being fresh. Terrible stomach cramps that night that overmatched the Tums and ginger ale i was bolting down. My wife's chicken primavera was good according to her but she had trouble sleeping as if the dish had way too much garlic. Based on the recent comments it appears as if the quality has slipped to the level of an Olive Garden. It's Vincent's Clam Bar for us from now on when we're in the mood for Italian food. read more

I really, really wanted to give this place 5 stars for the food - seriously top notch quality Pizza - but the counter service is immensely rude. I called an order in and I went to the check out counter to pay, and I was ignored while other customers continued to order food and pay. The one staff member who didn't outrightly ignore me felt a need to explain three times that there was a line to order food - not at all relevant to my order because I called it in for a pick-up. Hopefully management sees this and will educate their staff. For now, I'll be enjoying pizza from Umberto's. read more

When you try to order an overpriced lunch salad through ubereats its doesn't allow you to pick 2 add ons such as chicken and mozzarella. I received a rude call from a woman 10/9/20 around 305pm thinking I was trying to get over saving $1.50 for mozzarella on a $16 salad with chicken. Not my fault they don't have it programmed correctly. No issues ordering through Merrick location. Mind you she made no mention of subtracting any $ since I took off many ingredients from the salad. If I was running a business I would due my own due diligence and research a potential problem before accusing a customer. You are located in an affluent neighborhood, is your first thought really that someone is worried about $1.50? read more

Went to NY for the first time and i wanted to try a NY pizza and garlic knots. Stopped by this place because the other places were too hard to find parking (in the middle of Flushing downtown). Pizza was okay. nothing special. I've had better pizza in LA. Garlic knot was very dough-y. Overall, it was an okay pizza place. I only had one slice, it didn't leave my mouth wanting more. But the two locals i went with liked this place better than Mary's(?) on Long Island, so I guess it's good. read more

I love this place and come here all the time at least twice a month I don't think anything is bad here! I even have their rewards card haha but find it funnier that they have one as well as an iphone app! My favorite dishes here are the pesto roso (not on the menu), penne madeira, penne alla vodka, baked ziti, chicken parm, chicken rollatini alla tuscana and the chicken madeira. As for the pizza nothing gets better than their Crispino slice which is truly a slice of heavenly perfection! There not much else to say other than this place is a must, always amazing food! read more

La Piazza NY Plainview 7pm Saturday 30th January 2016 Five Stars This restaurant had some of the best Italian food that I have ever eaten. We were seated in the back probably because I was wearing sweat pants. I had a buffalo chicken slice of pizza to start. The crust was crispy, the chicken was tender, and creamy blue cheese made for a delicious bite. Next I had a Cesar salad which was good. The romaine was fresh, the homemade croutons Were crunchy and buttery. The dressing did the trick. I finished the meal with a platter of Veal Parmesan. There were four moist, and superbly battered veal cutlets. I opted for bolognese sauce for a $1.50 up-charge which made all the difference to me. It was a fantastically filling meal. read more

They have gone downhill. I can't even believe it. I will never ever go back to this restaurant. I've been takin for my money too many times since the pandemic. The food has been horrible read more

I think this is the best pizza I've ever had! The Sicilian marinara pizza is unlike anything I've ever had and is a must try with lots of sauce on top and not cheesy like most pizza. The Sicilian cheese is excellent as well and the garlic knots are the best I've ever had. Nothing fancy and is just great, cheap food to eat there, take out, or delivery. It's authentic and the guys working there were talking to each other in Italian. I liked it so much I went back a second night, I ordered a couple garlic knots and they gave me a big bag of them for free since they were about to close. A must try and I'll be back if I'm around here again. Any chance y'all can open a location in DC? read more

I'm a visitor from Texas do I had to try as much as I could! I got "plain" pizza, which I know as cheese pizza. It was pretty good. I could tell they use good cheese. Good thin crunchy crust too. I also had a slice of Sicilian pizza. This was great! Same good cheese as the plain but with a good portion of fantastic sauce! The sauce was full of flavor and really added to the pizza. Garlic knots...that was an impulse buy. In had already checked out but than I saw of the cashier's shoulder a huge bowl of garlic knots. I thought to myself "hey, I'm in New York....go for it." So I got those too! Yes I know...lots of bread and carbs...but when in Rome. Anyhow, the garlic knots were great. Seasoned well with a light amount of oil on the outside and a dusting of the toasted garlic, parmesan, and what I think was oregano. The toasted garlic really stands out as it should...not too much and not too little. I was in and out in under 5 minutes (take out). They move fast in there!! read more

Pizza is very good and delivery is fast and efficient. Love their meatball pizza as well as their regular slices.

The food was good, but not fantastic enough to justify the rudeness of the staff. It appeared to be universally acceptable, as everyone from our waitress, Francesca, Luis the busboy, and some random kitchen dressed employee, were extraordinary disrespectful. They physically pushed by us on our way to our table while complaining that we were in the way. We were hurried through ordering our meal with obvious impatience and given glaring annoyance when asking for a to go container. We will be trying the new place down the street in hopes of a better experience. read more

The food was amazing as usual. The service was as expected, second to none. I've been going to la Piazza for yrs and have never had a bad meal or a bad experience with the servers. They are friendly, personable and more helpful than any other restaurant I've ever gone to that's why I always go here to eat. They help you if your not sure what you want, they have plenty of suggestions all you have to do is ask. I recommend this restaurant any day anytime I'll put it up to any other Italian restaurant on Long Island. read more

Prices terrible Service terrible If you order delivery during the week it will come within two hours cold Tip ten dollars because we feel badly for the high school kid that works there but then ....

Every time I go there the employees are rude, condescending, and are complete liars. They have no idea what they are doing, they are not organized with the take out orders, people walk in and have no idea where to pick up an order or which line to stand on.

Came here yesterday for lunch and been here once before that. I knew it was going to be solid and that the slices wouldn't disappoint. I ended up getting a bottle of Sprite, one Sicilian slice, and a rice ball. The Sicilian slice was excellent; it was just out of the oven. Slice had a good ratio of sauce and cheese and the bottom of the slice was nice and soft. It was actually my first time trying a rice ball, and i have to say it was pretty good. It had a nice crunchy outer texture and the stuff inside was good (rice, green peas, and ground beef). However, i was disappointed as there was barely any ground beef in the riceball (not meaty at allll) and it was ridiculously overpriced at $4. Are you kidding me? Might be the standard price, but... Damn. Overall my meal was close to $10, which is pretty expensive for what i got. Thus the 3 star rating. read more

Thank you Mary S. and everyone at La Piazza in Plainview, NY. We ordered a variety of food as we were celebrating a birthday in our home. Pick up was a bit challenging, but our food was brought out to our car in a fairly timely manner. One little problem was that one of our meals was wrong. However, what was mistakenly put in our bag was actually quite delicious! I did, however, contact Mary S. to inform her that we received a meal that wasn't what we ordered and she immediately asked for our address and the correct meal was quickly delivered to our home at no extra charge. Thank you Mary S., and to everyone at La Piazza. In this time of craziness that we are all doing our best to get through, I'm happy that you are open for business and doing everything you can to satisfy your loyal and hungry customers! Stay well! read more

"Bon apatite!" Is what the man at the front desk said as we left the hotel. We had just asked him about where to get a good New York Pizza; he said La Piazza. It was interesting walking into a pizza joint - my man 6'7 and myself 6'0 in heels making me 6'3; in New York... it turned some heads. We were immediately seated and a wonderfully friendly waitress with a thick accent stopped by to take our order. We asked her what the most ordered pizza was and she told us 5 different ones... Yikes fish out of water... I fumbled. So which is YOUR favorite; she named 3.. Okay getting to the short list. Obviously there was a lot to try at this spot! We got the Quad; it was great. Paired with the Antipasto salad was wonderful! I would go back if Plainview, NY was in my neck of the woods. read more
