The heritage of Italian culinary art at Piazza Italiana starts with the Sicilian-born chef Remo Mazzucato and his experience of over 50 years across the world. Nestled in the former telling room of British Linen Bank with the interior restored to its original design from 1902.

Piazza Italiana brings the ambience of classic Italian cuisine: palate-enlightening and focused on quality and seasonal ingredients. Polished service, extensive bar and signature cocktails culminate in an Italian dining experience unlike any other.

The wine list has been accurately crafted and designed for every taste and wine lovers, offering a wide choice of bins and wines by the glass.

                                                            Really good food and great service. Not too busy or noisy although the week before Christmas. It’s is quite expensive but then it is in the middle of the square mile.

The restaurant caters excellently for dietary requirements - I am gluten free and a large amount of the menu is available gluten free. Visited this restaurant twice in the last month and thoroughly enjoyed it on both occasions.

Very personal, aware staff and the food was fantastic and really generous portions. I also looooved that the restaurant was quiet. Rare you can actually hear what each says at London restaurants. We will definitely come back. And I got the cutest little birthday box from the restaurant with chocolate

The ambience wasn’t the best lacked atmosphere . The pizza was very doughy and stodgy .It wasn’t unlimited pizza and pasta as it took so long to come we had to then rush our dessert and the restaurant was closing ( 4pm) I wouldn’t returned unfortunately .

                                                            Absolutely amazing venue let down by feeling quite rushed by our not particularly friendly waitress. When we sent a main back as the pasta was barely cooked … yes we know Italians eat their pasta Al dente but this was definitely undercooked… we were made to feel quite patronised as if we didn’t know anything about how pasta should be cooked. Saying that, on its return it was spot on and absolutely delicious as were the rest of our main courses (with perfectly cooked pasta!!)
