We love Piacones. The food is always great as is the service. The portions are amazing, always need to take some home. Would highly recommend this reataurant.
Went with two friends because it was near the theater, but will definitely be back. Great value for the quality and amount of food and service was friendly and excellent. I can't wait to bring hubby!
I took my daughter and her two friends out to dinner tonight, and it was such a great experience! This was a very last-minute decision, but I’m so glad we found this place. Our waitress was incredibly sweet, and either the owner or manager even came over to check on us, which made it feel so personal and welcoming.
The restaurant itself is absolutely adorable, the food was really, really good, and the service was excellent. Between the four of us, we ordered a steak, penne alla vodka, cacio e pepe, and of course chicken fingers and fries. We had sodas and water all around, and the total bill came to just $129. Honestly… are you kidding me?! For the quality of the food, the atmosphere, and the attentive service, that price is almost unheard of these days.
It’s not often you find a spot that’s this cute, has such a great staff, serves delicious food, and is affordable. We’ll definitely be back!

Food good, waitress was very slow. Ordered an ice cream dessert, and it was served Partially melted. And it was my birthday.
Dined on Saturday evening with son and daughter-in-law. We had a wonderful beet salad and chicken wings. Ordered Pork Scarpariello, Chicken Parm. Clams in white sauces and all three meals were very good. I ordered Halibut Oregenata with Spaghetti Squash and that meal was not good. The fish was completely dried /overcooked and tasteless (even with the oregenata on top) and the squash was bitter and uneatable. Was very disappointed because haven't had a bad meal at this restaurant and Halibut is my favorite! For $42 I expected at least an ok meal or better. Do not order the halibut!!!
Amazing! Food was great - one of the best pork chops we ever had. Server was so friendly! we had a great time!
Good place for a steak. Giant slices of cheese cake too. Tight bar area.

The pasta fagioli soup was the best ever. My husband loved the Chicken La Nonna and my Chicken parmigiana was also excellent. We did have one issue. I like a lot of sauce, so usually ask for a little extra marinara sauce. Never has a restaurant charged extra, but when the bill came there was a $3.50 charge. That was very petty and surprising.

Revised 9/3: I have chosen to revise my review, as the restaraunt manager called me and really wanted to understand where/how they fell short. He clearly was disappointed about my review, but more so their not hitting the mark. And... he DID NOT ask me to do this. He asked me to come in and give them another chance which I will. Based on the other fevry favorable reviews, I do belkieve I may have caught them on an off night. Original Review: Wanted to really like this place but was just ok. Bread was not great. Ceasar salad was good but over dressed, asked for med rare steak got med well. The bacon reduction sauce on the steak was delicious but execution of the steak was way off. Wife's gnocchi pasta with chicken was drowning in sauce which was tasty and chicken was very dry she could not eat the chicken. Over all tastes were good, cooking execution was not.
This was our first timing dining and everything was outstanding. The service was incredibly professional, the menu was exciting, the cocktails were great. The shining star was every dish we ordered. One was better than the next. Make a reservation and absolutely enjoy every bite! We can't wait to go back. Thank you for the best dinner we e had in a long time. Dale L.
Very comfortable place with excellent food and service. Have gone there numerous times and always great food.
