There are some crazy reviews by some crazy people here saying that Piazza's food is anything less than perfect. I had the fortunate experience of grabbing a quick bite for lunch here yesterday and let me tell you this place is 100% AUTHENTIC ITALIAN APPROVED.
I went for their special pasta of the day yesterday which was a freshly made Parpadelle made with a lamb ragu. HOLY SHIT. I think I blacked out when I ate it. It was so good that one minute I had a full plate, and then the next, it was gone. This was not for lack of portion size, it was perfect for lunch, but I just devoured it.
The noodles were so fresh they popped with every bite in my mouth and cooked to beyond perfection. And that ragu? Wow, made to order sauce done with generous morsels of lamb meat throughout, it was a fantastic dish, one that I want for breakfast as I write this review.
The location is a tad hard to find but totally worth seeking out. This hidden gem is located below street level just off of Oakville Town Square (west side of the square). As you walk down you might think this is just a gelato/pastry/sandwich shop for taking away, and they do have THAT, but making a right hand turn opens you up to a intimate, beautiful dining room with great design and lighting which can make for a relaxing mid day lunch or an intimate romantic dinner for two. I'm adding this to my list of date night recommendations!
