Piada Italian Street Food

No matter how much I try to like Piada I just can't! And it's so unfortunate, and really nothing that their staff did wrong. I just don't love the food! The concept of fast food Italian is kind of neat, and probably something I'll continue to get in a pinch because my coworkers order all the time or when I'm craving some Italian but don't want to spend a ton of money. But I will say the staff is very friendly and knowledgeable about their product, the restaurant is very clean and usually there's little to no weight even around the lunch hour. So that's always a win!

This is fast food with good, fresh ingredients. I like it. I usually get a wrap, this time I tried pasta. The salmon and pasta was cooked perfectly and the portion and price is on point. The flavors don't blow you away but it is good. I tried the Diablo, marinara and Alfredo. All were nice and mild, fresh tasting and not salty! We chose delivery from this location, nice job with that.

Stopped in this location for a late dinner. The concept is simple with a salad, wrap or pasta choice. Lots of combinations though because they have plenty of toppings. Service was just ok because despite it not being that crowded, the salads took a long time to prepare. This location is situated in a weird location, but there's 15 min parking behind the building and you can access it through the 260 Stetson lobby. Everything we tried was fresh, but overall just okay from a flavor profile.

This Piada location is great! Super clean restaurant, friendly staff, quick service, and delicious tasting food! I got the classic Mariana which never dissapoints!

The biggest rip off in the world! .35 worth of pasta .25 worth of sauce, slap it together and you did better than this place. Alfredo that is sour and taste bananny, a dirty/filthy/nasty place I'm sure I'll be sick from tomorrow. They probably need more than one person for staff two. Either way I'll not be back. Shut it down.

This is a great new location of one of my fast casual go to's, Piada. Its the perfect spot for UC students and all the hospital workers in the area to grab a quick bite. There is plenty of space in the dining room to hang out for a bit as well. I noticed one person doing some work on their laptop. There is a small 15min parking lot around back for the building itself, otherwise its street parking. Piada is often dubbed the Italian Chipotle because they offer customizable items at the counter. There are sandwiches called Piadas, salad, pasta, soup, and dessert. My favorites are Calamari salad, Pasta with veggies and meatballs, the lobster bisque soup, and the cannoli chips. I also like their power bowl. Honestly everything here is good! There is something for everyone. They also have good drinks such as seasonal lemonades that I love. The staff is friendly and prompt. You may order in store or ahead online. Make sure to sign up for their free rewards program!

Located in the old Zoup spot, this Piada is a welcome sight! They offer pasta bowls, wraps, and salads...and don't forget the delicious Piada sticks! Piada is set up "Chipotle style" where you choose exactly what toppings you want on your entree. With a variety of sauces, protein, vegetables, etc; there are a million different combinations you can create to make your own perfect meal. I was invited to their soft opening and was blown away by the cleanliness and friendliness of the staff. All of the ingredients were fully stocked and looked fresh.I usually do a build your own bowl with spaghetti alfredo and sausage. Something I loved about this location was that the sausage was already broken into pieces and not full sausage patties like other locations.There's a small, free parking lot behind the building that Piada is in. I would 100% come here again!

Italian street food designed to tickle and delight your taste buds. I really enjoyed my visit, especially at this location. This location is very close to several hospitals. So close, that like me you may wonder if you could use your lunch break on this place without returning late. Well i took one for the team, and let me tell you can and here's why. THEY ARE QUICK!!! When i first arrived i saw that the line was almost out the door. I immediately began to question every decision i had ever made that led me to that moment. But suddenly within minutes ( six minutes to be exact), I was on my way back to work with my food in tow. So i had plenty of time to enjoy my food and be in the right toncontinue the workday.Tips for making your visit a success:1) Explore the menu. Try something new you will be very pleased. 2) Customize, Customize, Customize!! This may sound contradictory to my previous statement, but really they go hand in hand. See something you like but want more or an addition, customize. See something interesting but it has something you don't like, customize. Want to do your own thing from the start, customize! Try this place for lunch, an after work snack or dinner and enjoy.

In town to visit the Cincinnati Zoo, we wanted something quick and convenient for dinner. We found that Piada offered flavorful, quality fast food! The carbonara (penne) was our favorite, but the diavolo and marinara were great too. Friendly staff and comfortable seating. Definitely exceeded our expectations!

Food was fantastic. We went there twice and the carbonara and marinara were our favorites. Lots of room to sit down and eat.
