Piacere

I've been going to Piacere since they first opened. I can't say enough good things about this place: the charming atmosphere, the casual vibe, the great food, the diverse crowd and most importantly the best pizza in NYC. This is a MUST-TRY of NYC. Don't miss out!! I love you, Piacere. See you very soon ❤️

I’m an Italian and grew up in Italy. I was struggling to find an authentic Italian place in NY with the quality of food like I would have back home. I found it here. If you want to have an authentic, great quality food and see how it’s done in the best places in Italy, this is your spot! Go and you won’t regret it! Pizza con la Nutella is definitely a plus 😂

This is an authentic Italian ten years established. The food was brilliant and portioned perfectly. We had 3 pizza’s all of which made with 100% organic ingredients (they don’t advertise this!) which were cooked on a real wood fire with a lovely flavour. My wife ate a Rigatoni pasta which was cooked perfectly al dente and beautifully seasoned. The meat and cheese selection to start was perfect. However the Kalema Red (Primavino Sale to 2011) was the star of the show. This wine made everything more tasteful 👌

After the Great Gatsby Party we walked around the block looking for a place to eat and luckily stumbled upon Piacere! The atmosphere was cool and relaxing. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The food was delicious! The Cannelloni di Ricotta and Mozzarella con Pomodoro e Basilico was very tasty. Not too heavy as many pasta/cheese dishes can be. The Polpo and Patate was perfect! Many places have chewy, rubbery octopus that is over seasoned. This was excellent. THANK YOU!

Was introduced to this wonderful place by a good friend and now has become our go-to spot for authentic and delicious Italian cuisine. This intimate and cozy restaurant has long tables big enough for large gatherings of 6-8 people. It also has smaller tables as well for couples and group of 4. The ambience and music are the cherry on top of this place. I love how when you walk in you can see the pizza oven blazing away. The bar is to the left where one of the co-owners are normally there chatting away and serving drinks to guests. The staff treats you so well here. We ordered burrata and speck to share. For the mains I got the Spaghetti with bottarga [shaved aged cod roe] with chili lemon- orange zest. It was a perfect. Citrusy and creamy with a punched of umami flavor coming from the bottarga. Afterwards we got a wonderful surprise of having a lovely chocolate panna cotta on the house. [They don't do it often but sometimes you get lucky] TLDR This is a wonderful little gem worth going to and everything on the menu from the food to the drinks are made with perfection.
