For larger tables or reserving our private room please contact us and we will be happy to work with you to create the perfect event!

    We had a lovely evening. We were celebrating a family birthday. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed the food and services and the place was decorated for Christmas which made the place even more warm.

    We frequent Piatto’s so we tend to enjoy it. Now with the cost of everything nowadays I understand it’s passed onto the customer. The Caesar salad was so tiny for a supper menu, for lunch sure. We were served food before our drinks, we felt rushed and the presentation was not as per usual. The good thing was the server was nice and it was quieter upstairs.

    Great dining experience; our server, David, was friendly and fun. My daughter was fascinated with the pizza makers, Ray and Maka. They were also happy to interact with her, and tossed pizzas, to her delight. The food was yummy too.

    Our waitress was very polite and professional! The pizza Margherita was bad and far from a Napolitan pizza: the corners had black spots (burned) and the toppings had no taste! We asked for extra meat on it, but it was forgotten. We were offered a free desert for the inconvenience and that was OK! The spaghetti with meatballs was very good, nice fresh tomato taste!

    Our server Beth was incredible. Received our apps before our mains, which were brought by a different server, but Beth was incredible, and apologized for the service order of food. Our table of 4 have all worked in the service industry and couldn't care less about the order in which our food arrived, but the amount that Beth cared about our experience went a long way. Pizzas were smaller than usual, but overall the experience was great. Thanks to Beth for a great night out.

    Our waitress )Danielle? )Immediately came over to our table to apologize when she realized that the kitchen had brought out my salad, which was to be my main well before my husbands order. She said she would try And hurry my husbands order. When that didn’t happen she came over to apologize again plus the manager arrived asking us to pick a desert which he would comp. It wasn’t a huge deal but appreciated that the wait staff/ manage was on top of things!! Really enjoyed our meals!

    The pizzas aren’t as good as they used to be. The toppings are more sparse. I buy the pizza kits regularly and these are much better because there’s no shortage of toppings

    Great place for the pizza. I’ve been here many times to the downtown location as I avoid the Elizabeth Ave location as it’s a hit or miss on the experience. The downtown place has it all, the vibe, the quality and the staff. As for the product, the pizza is always good, cooked properly and served hot. Drinks are priced fairly with a decent beer by the bottle or wine by the glass. Good dessert and expresso coffee to finish. If you’re looking for value and quality Piatto delivers at its Duckworth Street location.

    Chefs kiss muuuggghhh! Fantastic traditional wood fired pizza, full of flavour. Open kitchen where you can watch chefs prepare your food. Wait staff was great and had all the answers. Drinks are creative and tasty! Two levels, vespas everywhere and cool bathrooms which are at the pinnacle of a very long staircase. If you are looking for authentic Italian look no further. Go…tonight!

    Table ready the second we walked in. Orders taken very quickly. Food arrived hot, fresh and delicious. Waiter was friendly, courteous had recommendations for beer, food etc. Open table booking told us the table would be ours for 1.5 hours and we left almost exactly as that time was up. 100% recommend and will be back next time I’m in town!

    Very Long time for kids meals. Food need seasoning. Caesar was meh. Wine was priced high. Gelato was icy. Choco cake was waaay too sweet. Food came out at different times so some of us were almost done before the others started. Service was nice like all Newfoundland but just adequate,

    Food was amazing as usual, as was Laura's service! This is our favourite go-to restaurant! The noise level was unusually high last night, with a few extra loud patrons seated at the bar - but what can ya do? They're paying customers too lol Still love this place, best pizza and staff in town!

    This is a terrific enoteca/pizzeria in an ideal location. It has been a game-changer in the downtown of St. John's. The food is well -presented and quite good. Sadly, the service has gone downhill. There are a lot of staff who don't seem trained in basicb wait skills. Not knowing if a wine is dry or whatever demonstrates a woeful lack of knowledge of what you are serving. The authentic pizza is superb, the ambiance very agreeable. Maybe the staff needs a little refresher retreat.
