La Piazzetta — Restaurant in Gioiosa Marea

We had the pleasure of working with this wonderful restaurant for the catering at our wedding, and we couldn’t have been happier with our choice! First and foremost, we want to express our deepest gratitude to the owner and head chef. His expertise, dedication, and passion for his craft were evident in every dish served. The entire experience was executed at the highest level—impeccable service, outstanding presentation, and, most importantly, absolutely delicious food. The variety and quality of the dishes were exceptional, and there was more than enough for everyone. Our guests were beyond satisfied, enjoying every bite and praising the flavors. The service staff was professional, attentive, and ensured that everything ran seamlessly throughout the evening. A special thank you also goes to the team for our wedding cake. Not only did it surpass our expectations, but it was even more beautiful than our reference design—and the taste was simply exquisite! We highly recommend this restaurant for anyone looking for a top-tier catering experience. Their dedication to excellence truly made our special day...

The menu at Piazzetta is a seafood lover's dream, with a particular emphasis on raw dishes. The selection of prawns, oysters, and salmon was nothing short of exceptional.

We went 2 times.

The first time we could sit outside. The service was good and the pizza was super delicious. We even got a liquor drink on the house.

The second time we got placed inside because everything was "reserved" outside. But when we were done almost any seat outside was still open. Another thing this time is that the staff looked to us like they hadn't seen any tourists before. They gave us a strange look/feeling. And to end we saw a cockroach inside, not so nice to see. The pizza was still great though (we also got free liquor again)

So even that the second time left us a sour taste, we will give it the benefit of the doubt and give it 3.5/5 stars if possible...
