This was my first, and probably only, visit to this restaurant. This is probably the Italian restaurant with the worst service I have ever been to.

We (3 of us) arrived at aboit 1:30pm to find the upper level closed. There were only 4 guests in total dining then. There were nobody greeting us or taking us to the table. The staff were cold and answered us with an unwelcoming tone. Anything we ask, they replied "wait". Even when we only waved to signal for service, the staff replied "wait".

There was no issue with the food. We ordered pizza, penne and a beef sirloin, which were all from the set lunch menus. However, when we were finishing off the food, the waitress came over to tell us that they had given us the pizza of an "a la carte" size by mistake. I noticed one of the tables with two foreigners ordered two pizzas and they were the same size as ours. Another table of local Chinese guests who arrived later than us, got a smaller pizza than ours. What did she mean by that -- charging us extra ? Well, she did not but that was very rude of her.

If not for its poor, pathetic service, this restaurant should have been a success given its highly acclaimed chef and its location. Would its management consider removing their existing staff ? I mean all the two waitresses we met exhibited the same cold, impolite manners and their English were poor. Is the management planning to manage this restaurant in a more up-market manner or downgrade it to the same level as a local teahouse ? Mind you, the service at a local teahouse are already much better than here.

I have had a similar experience as the review below me mentions.I had a Groupon. The conditions stated that I had to make a reservation before I went there. However, whenever I had called them - I either did not get through or I was told that they are fully booked. So, I decided to turn up there a little early in the evening at 6pm and try to get a seat.

I have had a similar experience as the review below me mentions.

I had a Groupon. The conditions stated that I had to make a reservation before I went there. However, whenever I had called them - I either did not get through or I was told that they are fully booked. So, I decided to turn up there a little early in the evening at 6pm and try to get a seat.
When I went there - It was absolutely empty. So, I was hopeful that I would get a seat.

When we went in, the waitress was about to usher us to a table, when one of the other waitresses (all the waitresses are philipinos) asked us if we have a groupon. As soon as I said "Yes", their entire behaviour changed. They asked me if I had a booking or not. When I said "No", they said that they are fully booked and I need to return with a booking.

I was stunned !! It was unbelievable !!! I could see that the whole restaurant is empty except for one table in the corner. The whole restaurant was empty !! If they cannot afford coupons, they should not issue them.

Anyways, I could see that they were not in good faith and I was feeling cheated. There was no point to argue as they were being quite rude and shameless about it.



I will NEVER VISIT AGAIN.

We were using Groupon for dinner here. Menu only have 6 choices and 2 unavailable! We are forced to choose from regular menu (no discount anymore!) The service was terrible. There are a lot of empty seats. We booked for 7pm but the waitress insisted that we should leave at 8pm. At last, she served the food at 8:30pm.

spaghetti with cuttle fish black ink sauce: This was my dish and it was covered with plenty of ink sauce, which was delicious. The only complaint was that the cuttle fish was very tiny and not much in portion.

In general, it was a disappointing dinner. Though we had booked the table a week in advance, the staff had to put two tables together for us when we arrived there. The staff, a group of Filipinos, were very mediocre and clearly not customer-oriented. The house red wine was flat and tasteless. I guess that's what we get for $24/glass. Although the restaurant promotes itself as an authentic upscale Italian dining experience, the service was not upscale, nor was the food what I would call Italian. The dishes arrived at different times. For example, my boyfriend's mum, her main dish was served even before she'd finished her salad. Were we in the local cafeteria茶餐廳? Again, no sense of service. And as I said earlier, the food was average, not fresh and not even served HOT. This is definitely not something we expected from the fancy restaurant~

我們選了沙律,菜是新鮮可口,並有我愛吃的火箭菜*,更顯正宗意式風味!
(火箭菜是略帶苦味的菜,喜歡的人會認為其味道特別,與黑醋和初榨橄欖油特別相配)
隨頭盤更有番茄粒多士,多士是法國麵麭,番茄粒有香料的味道!很特別

主菜每人可自選一款:我們選了Pizza和燒雞胸肉!
先評燒雞胸肉,賣相不錯,味道有香料(Basil)香,口感香口,廚師應該是用平常夾Panini Bread的機Grill雞胸,所以外層稍脆!唯一不好是覺得整體有點乾,如上碟時以醬汁伴碟就能略為點綴那雞的味道!

今天的農曆新年很特別,沒和家人一起,也不是一個人,而是和閨蜜一起過除夕;我特地選了西餐,讓這個除夕團圓飯更加特別。電話預約了7點,準時到達,卻説沒有預定紀錄,但因爲人不多,安排了我們到二樓的位置。二樓只有我們一桌,環境幽靜,整潔舒適,與節日裏中餐廳的熱鬧和嘲雜形成鮮明對比,喜歡這種寧靜又愜意的氣氛。 前菜分別要了餐湯和沙律。沙律很新鮮,分量也剛剛好,清新的味道最合適節日期間的腸胃,橄欖油、醋和胡椒全凴自己口味添加;好友說雜豆湯也不錯。附送的番茄配多士,雖然一人只是一小件,但新鮮的番茄粒清新爽口,配多士味道不錯。主菜我要了肉醬意粉,雖然普通,但最能體現功力,而且之前看過食評説很不錯,更想試一試。果然沒讓我失望,肉醬濃濃番茄香,又不會搶走肉的味道;肉醬和意粉的分量比例也剛好。意粉口感也很好,軟硬適中,很彈牙。另一款主菜威尼斯香草燉肝,好友說非常一般。看來這裡還是選意粉比較安全。甜品Zabaglione無特別,小嘗okay,多吃會覺得膩。需要一提的是服務,真是有很大改善空間。電話訂位,當時電話裏就覺得負責訂位的人三心二意,敷衍了事,很快挂綫,或許在忙其他工作,到達后果然找不到預定記錄;還好當

需要一提的是服務,真是有很大改善空間。電話訂位,當時電話裏就覺得負責訂位的人三心二意,敷衍了事,很快挂綫,或許在忙其他工作,到達后果然找不到預定記錄;還好當天人不多,他們也接受了優惠券,否則真是麻煩。此外,當天有另一桌客人投訴食物質量,不管有什麽問題,搞到最後不僅侍應和客人大聲爭吵,更是喊叫比客人還高聲,嚴重影響其他正在用餐的客人。同時,樓下發生爭執,對樓上的我們就不理不顧了,要我們自己下樓去找侍應甜品。最後,結賬也搞錯,幸好能糾正。餐廳並不大,人也並不多,服務完全可以做得更好。

晚上即興想吃薄餅意菜,想起公司附近的La Piazzetta。約晚上七時許,下層座位已滿,上層雅座還有不少位子。論氣氛,雖不算特別浪漫幽雅,但寧靜地談天說地倒沒有問題。甫坐下,店方首先問及的是有沒有優惠卷,及後才知道有很多食客手持團購餐卷,可用$159+10%享用一客二人晚餐,又真是頗實惠。今趟沒有餐卷,只可以相同價錢享用一客一人晚餐。是日餐湯是雜豆湯,豆香豐溢,但湯中有豆渣,以致口感不夠滑溜。伴上脆多士,脆脆的,面上放上鮮茄粒,感覺清新。主菜選了煎豬扒及薄餅。Braciole di Maiale alla Pizzaiola(豬扒)以鯷魚、牛至及茄醬調味,味道酸酸鹹鹹,配上質感鬆軟的豬扒,唔錯。薄餅選了Diavola,以茄醬、薩拉米腸、辣椒及Mozzarella芝士作配料。薄餅是傳統意式薄餅底,口感很脆,除了有芝士香味,更有薩拉米腸及辣椒帶來的辛辣味道,幾好食喎!稍嫌不足的是薩拉米腸份量不夠多,以致賣相不夠吸引。甜品Zabaglione,貌似雪糕,實際和蛋糕忌廉差不多,少吃多滋味,多吃滯膩。Set Dinner沒有咖啡茶,感覺差了一點,反而團購套餐有,更不是味兒!

we ordered the monthly special with salad, pizza anf dessert. the salad was a nice green salad with pomodorini, asparragus and shaved parmiggiano which was nice and fresh. the pizza was a tad undercooked but after having it sebt back to the oven it was nice and crunchy.

we also ordered the linguine with lobster cooked in a tomato and cognac sauce and it was amazing. definitely recommend it!!

for drinks we haf the house red wine which was of good quality.

as a nice touch is the fact that the chef is actually cooking on the dining floor so you get all these gorgeous aromas throughout dinner.

in general it was above our expectations and its a definite recommendation when craving for something more other than the standard italian pizza-pasta restaurant.

九月份剛從意大利回來,碰著米蘭時裝節,看到很多「型男索女」,確實目不暇給。當然也大破慳囊買了不少衣物。這幾年意大利最大的變化,不是多了許多內地遊客,而是食物質素下降了不少。這點我的一些文大朋友亦有同感。兩個星期也實在沒有一間餐廳令我感動。也不是難吃,但我期望得到更多。難怪有人說香港是美食天堂,事實上,要吃正宗的意大利菜,香港有不少選擇。若果你想吃pasta的話,La Piazzetta會是一間令人喜出望外的小餐廳。她有兩間,一間在SoHo,另一間在灣仔。兩間的水準都很平均,但我更喜歡到灣仔那一間,因為晚上比較寧靜。一天中午途經灣仔,竟然看到La Piazzetta的東主Paolo即席烹調Pasta,跟他打個招呼就進去坐下。這間店好像從來不會滿座,我也從沒有須要訂座。或者這就是意大利人的性格罷,太忙碌他們會更不習慣。Paolo的即席烹調每天只有一款,這天吃的是簡單的番茄辣椒意大利粉。一般香港人或許覺得花百多圓吃一碟沒有肉類和配菜的意粉很不值得,但直正極品的意大利粉是無需花巧也能令你感動。在意大利,Pasta屬primo piatto (first dish),而肉類是secondo pi

九月份剛從意大利回來,碰著米蘭時裝節,看到很多「型男索女」,確實目不暇給。當然也大破慳囊買了不少衣物。這幾年意大利最大的變化,不是多了許多內地遊客,而是食物質素下降了不少。這點我的一些文大朋友亦有同感。兩個星期也實在沒有一間餐廳令我感動。也不是難吃,但我期望得到更多。難怪有人說香港是美食天堂,事實上,要吃正宗的意大利菜,香港有不少選擇。

若果你想吃pasta的話,La Piazzetta會是一間令人喜出望外的小餐廳。她有兩間,一間在SoHo,另一間在灣仔。兩間的水準都很平均,但我更喜歡到灣仔那一間,因為晚上比較寧靜。一天中午途經灣仔,竟然看到La Piazzetta的東主Paolo即席烹調Pasta,跟他打個招呼就進去坐下。這間店好像從來不會滿座,我也從沒有須要訂座。或者這就是意大利人的性格罷,太忙碌他們會更不習慣。

Paolo的即席烹調每天只有一款,這天吃的是簡單的番茄辣椒意大利粉。一般香港人或許覺得花百多圓吃一碟沒有肉類和配菜的意粉很不值得,但直正極品的意大利粉是無需花巧也能令你感動。在意大利,Pasta屬primo piatto (first dish),而肉類是secondo piatto (second dish)。許多人把secondo piatto翻譯成主菜(Main Course)其實是錯的。Primo piatto 和secondo piatto在意大利菜來說是同等重要的。

說回Paolo的這碟番茄辣椒意大利粉,看他輕描淡寫,沒有戲劇性的拋鑊動作,不一會就送到我的面前。這碟意粉特別用上了蕃茄乾而不是新鮮蕃茄,所以它沒有新鮮蕃茄的清爽鮮甜,反倒是像蜜餞一樣的軟糯甘甜。一口吃下去先嘗到蕃茄的酸,接著是甜,然後辣味慢慢湧出來。汁醬沾上軟硬合度的意粉,每一口都是滿足。不會有意粉沾不上汁醬,吃完又不會有太多汁醬餘下,這是看似簡單但卻絕不容易的功夫。

不過要記著,來La Piazzetta只要吃Pasta,不要想其他。Buon appetito!

又報了名到灣仔聽講座,這次老公也來參加;開講前有個多小時醫肚,早前買的團購劵8月中也差不多到期了,就來了以正宗家庭式意大利菜為招徠的La Piazzetta吃頓輕鬆晚餐。一進到店內,第一感覺是非常的開心! 除因場內空人無人,三口子仿如包場;也是由於環境既典雅又富親和感,牆上掛著的銅色廚具,還有隔著落地玻璃窗觀看街外風灼,均令人覺得似是回到蜜月時間,真的進了一定意大利道地小餐館! 除了底層,餐廳還有樓上雅位,不過上層樓底較低,環境並不及樓下吸引。講回食物,我以$176買了總值$400的消費額,同時適用於食物及飲品,老公一就了杯House Red Wine($50)。紅酒倒得挺滿,份量不欺場;然而據講味道較酸,風味只是一般。等了一段時間,也不見餐前麵包縱影,而且不止使用團購劵的我們,其他的散客也一樣。之後再看餐單,原來麵包是要另外付款選點的,令人感覺若有所失! 然而很快的,我們選點的Pizza Piazzetta($98)也上檯了,注留力一下又分散了:這店的薄餅均設有大小之分,我們點的細pizza約有8'大小,一個批可分成四件;與早一晚小酒窩的出品相比,這個pizza焗得對辦多了,批身夠

Spaghetti with Cream & Black Caviar in Champagne Sauce($158),要讚意粉軟硬適中,並做到al dente口感,配上既creamy又香的香檳醬,以及爽口帶鮮的魚子醬,多重口感滋味交錯,果然好吃有水準,值得推介!

第一個選擇是大路的
Tiramisu($55),無論是賣相及質感濕度,明明都很對辦,可惜吃來mascarpone並不香又不滑,底層的咖啡酒香也是怪怪的,我與老公都不太欣賞得來。

另一個甜品
Budino($39),Menu的形容是Italian pudding,問及外藉侍者它與Panna Cotta的分別,她的回答是這布丁加了檸檬絲在內,那就來一試吧。成品來到,賣相不算可人,質感則是幾軟滑,但中間除有極輕量的檸檬絲,更突兀是帶有小米粒,有點似中東的rice pudding,講真還真幾古怪,老公完全吃不來,我也是勉強清碟的。

本來此店的主食水準不差,但甜品質素卻是強差人意,大大拉低了整體評分;另外店內又有一座電子琴,令人憧憬夜晚會有live show;結果吃到一半真的有位美女到場,但她來到只是播CD,自己卻坐下飲野,又是令人掃興。

使用團購劵後,這頓實際所付只是兩百多,作為講座前一頓輕鬆晚餐,也算不差;但如付的是原價四百多,就有點不太值了。另外大概是旅行後吃大了胃,這頓晚餐的飽肚度也不持久,講座後又要再到華南吃碗粉,那又是後話了!

My daughter picked this restaurant as she wanted to have Gnocchi and Grappa's was fully booked. We were disappointed. We had a large margherita pizza, gnocchi gorgonzola, Risotto with mushrooms and Tortellini stuffed with spinach. Not enough tomato sauce in the pizza. Gnocchi was too salty. Tortellini was too salty and oily. Risotto was ok.Considering the taste and price, it was not very good value.

是日Happy Friday,又到公司附近揾新嘢食,最後揀了La Piazzetta。餐廳分兩層,面積不算很大,座位挺舒適。不過,未知是否樓上開party的緣固,店內頗嘈吵,影響用餐氣氛。午餐menu有兩個,各有七八款套餐。主菜款式其實差不多,只是executive lunch menu多了一客甜品,但貴三四十元!小小一片意大利餐包,烘焗至金金黄黃,温度暖緩,口感脆脆,有點像多士,味道不錯。比較奇怪的是serve包時店方並無提供刀碟食具,包碎少不免會弄污餐桌,而且又無地方盛載黑醋橄欖油,真奇怪?!餐湯沙律二選一。是日以菠菜湯作餐湯,墨綠色的菠菜蓉清楚可見,味道清淡,OK。主菜選了海鮮扁意粉,以扇貝型餐碟盛載,頗為貼題。扁意粉面上加滿蜆肉、海蝦及扇貝,賣相不俗。味道方面,醬汁以蕃茄辣椒等材料烹制,味道酸中帶辣,都幾惹味。配上的扁意粉口感普通,未夠煙韌。海鮮方面,蜆肉不俗,味鮮無沙。海蝦唔新鮮,肉質有點霉。扇貝則普普通通,同樣鮮味不突出。餐飲凍奶茶,等了很久才有得飲。茶底淡而無味,一般西餐廳的低下質素。結賬時發現打錯單,大家小心。另外,店中服務感覺一般,此價錢的餐廳理應做得好一點。

For lunch, they have set lunches, and two pages for the tortellini and gnocchi.

The lunches include soup/salad, bread, drinks and dessert.
Although it may be pricey, but it is truly worth it, however you need at least 1.5 hours as they are quite short staffed.
Even on Mondays all the tables manage to fill up.

Tried two versions of Gnocchi, one with gorgonzola cheese and the other with butter and sage.
The cheese was quite strong of blue cheese taste, but was not as creamy as it looked, and the butter and sage was quite nice to get the real taste of Gnocchi, and it reminds me of baked potato and butter.

As for the tortellini, it was gorgeous, piping hot tortellini in plentiful sauce.
However, the portions could have been bigger, even with dessert, starter and drink, I still felt hungry.

The bread given was soft aromatic white focaccia with onion, which were excellent dipping them into vinegar and olive oil.

The soup and starter are also good, depending on what they serve that day, good soups include green pea soup and vegetable soup which is very wholesome containing lots of kidney beans.

My favourite starter is the egg and asparagus, which has some alchohol in it.
The dessert is either chocolate mousse or zabaglione, but the texture of both is slightly dry, and tasted a bit like artificial cream.

Zabaglione is an Italian dessert made with egg yolks, sugar, a sweet wine (usually Marsala wine, but in the original formula Moscato d'Asti), and sometimes whole eggs. It is a very light custard, which has been whipped to incorporate a large amount of air.

Service: Bad, slow, and very arrogant....when I tried to order, the staff never really paid attention to me...I always have to repeat what I said...kept on giving us the wrong cutlery

Food: expensive but bad quality, I feel like back to the UK where I had to eat pizza with only cheese and tomato sauce in order to save money...none of their pizzas are actually properly done...the first one they served me was not even cooked...

drinks: ok, normal price...

Portion: extremely small considering its price (over $100 per dish)

Variety: lack of any good choices of food

Conclusion: will never go back~
