My family hosted a surprise birthday party for me in the back room at La Piazza on May 9th. About 60 people came. The food was fabulous...everybody raved....especially about the eggplant and the fish! The service was fantastic too. There is even a small dance floor in the middle of the room so we hired a DJ which really made the party even extra great with lots of dancing and more social interaction. This is the first time I even went to this place and will definitely go back for the delicious food and hopefully more parties. #LaPiazza_Merrick #buzzybooth

Had lunch here on Juneteenth as a party of six. Nice circular table. All the food was super tasty. Diet Coke was a weird situation tho - got offered an entire 2 liter for the table or just normal fountain drinks. Was a bit bizarre. Was never offered a refill which was a bummer.

I had a Spighetti and Calamari with a saute Broccoli on the side. It was cooked to perfection. They were opened on Memorial day when everyone else was closed.

This place never disappoints. This is my go to place for a pasta fagioli but there isn’t a thing on the menu I would not recommend the place is clean, friendly accommodating, and the food always is consistent and taste amazing

We hosted my parent’s 50th wedding anniversary at La Piazza and we are beyond pleased with the process from beginning to end. The staff is super attentive and friendly, the food was great as usual and we had a great time!

Fabulous place....Great food and service from begining to end. Chicken Francais was over the top. The staff was there to help with the decorating with anything we needed and offered us beverages while we were decorating, Could not have asked for more. Definitely returning.

We had our Rehearsal Dinner in the Catering Room, and we can't recommend it more! We had a wonderful time - the food was incredible, and the party was well-organized and went so smoothly. The staff were all so sweet - I would definitely have another event here. And I, for sure, will be going back to the restaurant just for the food.
