Piada is a nice addition to Oakland. I tried the pesto pomodoro meatball pasta. Their large grass-fed beef meatballs are moist and tasty. Pepperoni sticks are tasty and filling. I wasn't a fan of the harvest grain salad (the red wine dressing was too sweet). Everything looks good and the prices are extremely reasonable, especially for the larger bowls which are enough for a couple lunches if you save leftovers. The line moves pretty quickly here too, and the employees are friendly.
