    The host (possibly owner wasn’t sure) was absolutely hospitable, kind, genuine and pleasant. Exactly what you want on a night out with family and friends. Warm ambience, beautiful seasonal decor for the holidays, happiness, cheer, delicious food and I rated the noise level quiet as I ate in the outdoor igloo and they were so intimate and perfect. Will be returning!

    I took my family to Pietro’s for a birthday lunch and it did not disappoint. The service and the food was amazing. Our waitress was Alana and she was outstanding. She was very attentive and assisted us with recommendations since we were so indecisive. We will definitely be back.
    Pietro's of East MeadowResponded 2 days ago
    Thank you so much for spending your birthday lunch with us! I’m so happy to hear you had a great time and that Alana took such good care of you—she really is amazing. I know how hard it can be to decide with so many options, so I’m glad she was able to help! Can’t wait to have you back again soon. Celebrating moments like this with families like yours is why we do what we do!

    We had an outdoor igloo for lunch for my son's 4th birthday. It was perfect! Even though today was one of the coldest of the year so far our igloo was toasty warm and completely adjustable as per our attentive server. Food was perfect and even my picky Mom was happy. Sesame seed crust appreciated by all! This was def a worthy "destination" dining experience but not at all overpriced that you couldn't eat here anytime. We really enjoyed it and will be back!

    Thank you so much for celebrating your son’s 4th birthday with us! I’m thrilled to hear the igloo was cozy and comfortable even on such a chilly day—our team works hard to make sure it’s just right. It’s so great to know the food hit the mark for everyone (even your mom!), and I’m glad the sesame seed crust was a hit too! Your kind words about the experience mean so much to us. We can’t wait to have you back again soon!

    Pietro's has some of the best customer service we have ever experienced. Our reservation was delayed due to a family who over extended there time in the igloo dining experience but Pietro's handled it professionally. Food and drinks were excellent. Our first time at Pietro's but definitely not our last.

    The food, the holiday atmosphere and the service are excellent at Pietro's. We were disappointed that the Christmas carolers didn't come to our igloo. We waited as long as we could but they were singing to a large birthday party and never made it to us. There was a bit of a rush to clean up and take our plates, which has never happened before. But overall, we love Pietro's are will definitely go back.
    Pietro's of East MeadowResponded 5 days ago
    Thank you so much for your kind words about our food, holiday atmosphere, and service—it means the world to us that you love Pietro’s. We sincerely apologize for the disappointment regarding the Christmas carolers not making it to your igloo. They aim to visit all our guests, and we’ll work on ensuring a more balanced experience for everyone in the future. We strive to make each visit feel relaxed and enjoyable, even within our two-hour time slots. It sounds like we could have done a better job managing the timing for your table, and I apologize if you felt rushed. With our igloos being fully booked back-to-back during this busy season, we aim to balance great service with ensuring all guests enjoy their time. We can’t wait to welcome you back soon for another magical evening!
