La Piazza Dario Ristorante
Exceptional cuisine is life-enhancing magic. A magic to be enjoyed with family and friends, or as a companion to business proceedings. Come to our table with an open heart. At La Piazza you will encounter a warm relaxed atmosphere where fine cuisine is presented in gracious style. Bright and airy luncheons, or intimate candlelight dinners, dining at La Piazza is a revelation of the Italian gift for making an art out of life. Brilliant cuisine selected from the classic dishes of sunny Italy. Prepared from the finest ingredients by Chef Claudio Ranallo, and served in the continental tradition.

"Mostly traditional dishes done in an old-school way, but very competently and often excellent. On our recent visit, bean soup and stracciatella were fabulous, salmon and vegetables very good, linguine with mushrooms had very nice pasta and very few, sub-par mushrooms. Service was a bit abrupt, especially from the gentleman who appears to be the drinks captain. Also, the owner/boss was a bit overly proactive in trying to up-sell dessert and drinks in our case, and appetizers and drinks at tables around us. Didn't care for that. When it came to payment, it took forever to get somebody's attention and then she waltzed off in the middle of the transaction. A mixed, but mostly good experience. Will certainly return, again."

"We went as a small group, for the most part it was fine, with the exception that lunch took almost 2 hours, which is great if you have the time, but most of us were not expecting to be so long. Also, they got my order wrong, and when I first pointed it out, there was no apology... they did offer to remake it, but it had taken so long in the first place, we didn't have time to wait."

"We (my friend and I) enjoyed the dinner--both were similar. The taste of food is of prime importance to us. Ambience was fine (Italian has many different versions). Four waiters (bring them on, yes, but service was very good) constant attending with water, drinks. Did not feel rushed. Had champagne, bean soup, Artic cod which was delicious, and tiramisu, and also coffee. A good restaurant for authentic Italian food.
If others choose a modern ambience as their prime importance, maybe they would go to a different restaurant, but if they like classic Italian and authenic Italian food, Dario's is a taste treat."

"As usual, the food was wonderful--quality ingredients and very very well prepared. The wine list is excellent at all price ranges. However, the service did not match the quality of the food. It was a busy night of course, Valentines Day, but surly that is an opportunity, not an excuse. We are not demanding guests--perhaps we should have been. As small a request as a glass of water could not be fulfilled for over 15 minutes. We met the chef and the manager/owner. Clearly both are very experienced and dedicated to producing a good dining experience. Sadly, the serving staff did not rise to the occasion on this occasion."

"Table that we were placed at was originally a table for 4 split into 2 tables of 2 for the evening. Throughout the evening our meals, drinks,etc includingthe bill went to the table beside us. Tables were too close together.. Food was good but overpriced for what was served. Staff were very nice, they even found the split of tables very confusing
Would not rush back."

"We visited Dario's on a hockey game night and the room was only partly full. I could only go to 3 stars overall and for the food based on value. The fixed price menu was reasonable but $25 for a simple sole main seems like too much in this fish-a-plenty city."
