La Piazza Friesenberg

A little out of the way place which was 100% worth the (short) drive from Zurich! If you are looking for authentic Italian, then look no further. From their pizzas (crafted by an exceptional pizzaiolo) to their other dishes, this is a true Italian kitchen. I had the carbonara, which is quite difficult to find authentic outside of Italy. This was bang on perfect. Guancale, pecorino romano and egg...simple in it's ingredients...perfectly executed with an al dente spaghetti that still leaves me longing for it again! My wife had the lasagna...cooked and served in a little Le Creuset type dish, was as delicious! We enjoyed a nice Spanish Primitivo that the owner recommended an capped off the evening with coffee, Amaro and of course, Tiramisu. Thank you La Piazza! One thing I would like to mention...if you are a tourist booking a reservation for a large group, please have some respect for places like this (a family business) when you are cancelling. Things happen, we get it, and you may have to cancel , but this place had a couple of last minute cancellations for large groups; these were spots he could've accommodated other customers. If you must cancel, provide some notice.

Sensationell gute Küche ohne Schnickschnack! Einfach Italienisch mit Finesse! Gute, solide Auswahl. Und ein Service zum Verlieben: witzig, charmant aber unaufdringlich - man fühlt sich sofort wohl und wie integriert in die Familie.

Very good italian restaurant. Nice place food was very good and the waiter was very nice.

Richtiger Italienisches Restaurant mit sehr guter Küche. Alles wird a la Minute zubereitet und schmeckt sehr gut. Der Gastgeber ist sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Die Preise für die Stadt Zürich normal. Alles in allem ein sehr gutes Lokal zum empfehlen.

Sono stata a cena con la mia famiglia, un’esperienza eccezionale. Clima super familiare personale simpatico, gentile e professionale. Ottima cucina che mi ha riportata ai sapori di casa, consiglio l’ossobuco alla milanese. Bravo Paolo e bravi ragazzi! Un ottimo Team!

The food at this Italian restaurant was fantastic, especially their *pinsa*, which is a great alternative to traditional pizza. The *Primitivo Vitto* wine was amazing, and overall, the quality of the dishes was definitely a highlight. However, the service could use some improvement—we waited around 25 minutes just to be offered a dessert menu, and in the end, we never got it. A disappointing way to finish an otherwise great meal.

Ristorante la Piazza, una bella scoperta. Locale molto carino. Atmosfera italiana, illuminazione giusta, sistemazione degli spazi adeguati. Arredamento stile Vintage. Il Menu offre un' ampia scelta di piatti. É disponibile anche la Pizza senza Glutine. Prezzi nella media. Personale molto cordiale e attento. Il ristorante viene gestito con molta passione. Sono uscita dal ristorante molto soddisfatta e ho gustato ogni boccone. Ritornerò presto
