Pizza. Pizza.So my cousin surprised me with a delivery of a mushroom pizza.unsure but I think the place delivered and it wasn't via a food delivery service; that being said, the pizza was not hot (lukewarm) when it got here. She was a bit upset but it was edible.Reheated it in the air fryer to keep the crust crispy and the pizza was deliciously made. I really like the crust and how it was not overwhelming the actual pizza toppings. The base of the pizza was perfect, not too doughy. The mushrooms and cheese went well together. The ratio of sauce to cheese to mushroom was perfect. They do large cuts to the pizza. The fact that the reheat the next day was almost as good as when the pizza first got here says a lot about the quality.Def willing to give them another visit or order.

Kicking off the Nee Year on January 4 with Spaghetti day, and found this nice spot nestled in midtown to enjoy a plate. Parking garage behind it is convenient, I asked inside if it was ok to park there because last thing anyone needs is to be towed. And yes the garage is for Piola parking. The staff is extra friendly and attentive and the music and atmosphere is modern and relaxing. The spaghetti and meatballs were steaming when it arrived and throughout my eating it remained as such. Pasta was cooked just right but the meatballs needed a bit more flavor. For the drink I opted for their cocktail Lime Caipirinha, it's a Brazilian cocktail consisting of liquor, sugar and plenty of limes. Almost like a margarita.Do recommend the tiramisu, enjoyed that you could taste the flavors of the espresso. I've had others and they aren't prepared correctly. Overall enjoyed my visit and at reasonable prices, it's a good spot to come with friends or to treat yourself!

We came on a Saturday evening and they were quick to seat us. We started with Caesar salads. I have to say those are some of the best croutons l've ever had. Idk if they are made fresh, but they sure taste that way. We love pizza so we had to try more than one. We had the Honolulu and Meat lovers. The Honolulu is delicious!The ham had a great taste I just wish the pineapple was cut in smaller pieces and not slices. The meat lovers was okay maybe because of all the meat (sausage, spicy salami and bacon) it was a bit too salty. We had the tiramisu for dessert it was delicious and creamy I loved it. Our waitress was nice and friendly but she definitely seemed overwhelmed with the amount of tables she was waiting on.

I don't know why I never heard of Piola, but I'm so glad I did. We got pizzas for lunch for a coworker's birthday. Normally, I'd be left out with pizza because I cannot eat dairy or eggs. Piola has a cauliflower crust option as well as vegan cheese. You have to pay $9 total for both of those, so it's an expensive pizza, but it was one of the best dairy free pizzas I've ever had. I got the Como. A coworker got the Como without modifications and loved his too. The size of pizza is perfect... ate the whole thing in one sitting which is uncharacteristic of me! I loved it and have already talked about wanting to go back.

We came here around 11:30 AM for a work lunch. There were about 15 of us with varying appetites. I ordered Toscanini and at first I was concerned because even though I was amongst the first to order, it took awhile to get my food relative to my colleagues. However, meal was worth the wait. It was very delicious and I ate all of it. The ingredients were very fresh and it had a very authentic Italian taste to it. I had a cappuccino afterward which was a good ending for the meal. Parking garage was very convenient and not at all busy this time of day during the week. Service was excellent although I am a little curious as to why there was only one server on duty? She was constantly moving and accomodating, although I am sure tired as all get out afterwards.

A cute neighborhood restaurant offering more than just pizza joint fare. Piola offers a bar plus indoor and outdoor seating, and service was friendly and efficient.My sister and I ordered two pasta dishes and a pizza: the Pappardelle Bolognese was nicely al dente, and, although the bolognese sauce had a wonderful zest, it was a tad on the watery side. The four cheese sauce on the Gnocchi Legnano was deliciously rich, creamy, and positively crave-worthy; however, the gnocchi was dense and doughy.The calzone was perfect! The crust was crisp and chewy in all the right places, and the sauces and meats were savory and satisfying.I would like to come back to try other dishes.

I often come here when I want a Brazilian-style pizza on a Friday night or something similar. You can't go wrong with the "Rio de Jaineiro" which is very similar to the typical frango com catupiry served in Brazil or the Quattro Formaggi (Four Cheese) ones. If you're searching for a genuine Italian pizza restaurant, I highly suggest this place.

Pappardelle Mari e monti... tasted like they took the noodles from the hot boiling water, did not strain them, and just plopped them soaking wet on my plate with sauce and all. The boiled water was the only flavor which was present - nothing else.

Great casual place to grab pizza for the price. Went here for a birthday celebration, and the workers were very accommodating to a large group. Not the best margherita pizza I've had, but the atmosphere and wine made up for it.

I was so excited to try Piola's all you can eat gnocchi night, but honestly it was a disappointment. The gnocchi was doughy and heavy, and there wasn't anything to break up the denseness of it all. We did get the meatball appetizer that came with bread, so that helped a little. I did appreciate that there were many sauces to try with the gnocchi.The most unpleasant part of our meal here was the service. The waitress was very rude, and when I asked if she could bring out the big plates the gnocchi would be served on at the same time as our appetizer, she began complaining to the other servers in Spanish about our table and gave us a not very nice look. I would not recommend.
