| - My review is based on a delivery order. I have yet to visit the restaurant itself.
Soooo, it's 6pm, I have a ton of homework and I don't want to put on pants. I logged onto Uber Eats skimming through places I have and haven't tried. I decided on Piada tonight, because the pics in the photos looked banging.
I ordered myself the carbonara with chicken, small diavolo with meatball, two sides of meatballs (my kiddo is a fiend for meatballs), and the blood orange tea.
The blood orange tea was the only thing I found remotely delicious-- which is extremely disappointing.
The pasta to sauce ratio is ridiculous. You get a huge bowl of angel hair and maybe half a cup of sauce? Wtf? Pancetta on carbonara was burned to a crisp, the sauce itself was oddly sweet?, and the meatballs are like a meat paste? There's no texture or flavor. Just a straight up ball of meat paste.
My kiddo seems to like his diavolo, but the sauce on that was weird too. Tons of noodles and very little sauce.
At least the food arrived pretty fast tho, and you can tell the ingredients are fresh and not sitting around (spinach, tomatoes, other veggies, etc.).
I'll definitely give this place another try in person, but definitely not anytime soon. Too expensive for such disappointment.
