From the moment you step into Piazza Bistro, you're enveloped in a warm and inviting atmosphere that instantly transports you to the heart of Italy. The restaurant's intimate setting, adorned with rustic décor and soft lighting, creates a cozy ambiance perfect for savoring authentic Italian cuisine. My recent dining experience at Piazza Bistro was nothing short of exceptional. The menu, brimming with both classic and contemporary Italian dishes, is sure to tantalize your taste buds. But it wasn't just the food that made my dining experience so remarkable; it was also the impeccable service and genuine care from the owner, who took the time to greet each guest and ensure their satisfaction. His passion for Italian cuisine and his commitment to providing an exceptional dining experience were evident in every aspect of the restaurant. I wholeheartedly give it a 5/5 star rating and highly recommend it to anyone seeking a taste of Italy in Oakville.

If you’re looking for a great place to sit back and relax on a patio this is the place to come to. The owner Amar definitely cares about his business and your experience. From the moment we sat down we were greeted by our server Kat. She was wonderful to have as our server and was very attentive. Amar also made sure everything was going well for myself and my guest however that service was not limited to just our table. It looked as though the owner himself was making sure everyone’s dining experience went well and we also saw him helping the servers run food. We ordered a pizza and a pasta and the taste was very similar to something I had in Italy. The drink selection was full of options and the wine list was fairly decent. If you’re looking for something a bit more special however, they have the ability to make many drinks that you may not see on the menu so I would definitely just ask. All in all I would definitely recommend this restaurant.

What an amazing change brought by the new owner, Amar, and his wife! We came here the evening before my bday. We hadn’t been here in years. What has changed is the ambience. Amar is so not like a typical restauranteur. He has a generous spirit and is fun loving. He likes to have fun with his guests. Our reservation was late. He invited us to share a drink with him at the bar. Knowing it was my birthday Eve dinner, he had shots with us. There was live music at the place. This added to the ambience. It was truly joyful. He even let me borrow $20 so I could tip the musician who was very personable as well. The food was as I remember it. Decent, hearty, at a good price. What is special though is the atmosphere that the owners have created. Will come back again, Amar, to have another drink with you!

We happened to be at this place for dinner . The service was literally more than I had ever experienced. The staff was very intuitive and prompt ! Mini and Amar were great host right from the beginning. Loved sitting at the bar witnessing Owner Amar in action and then being able to enjoy the cocktail of his creation. They had quiet a selection of wine and drinks . Totally impressed and more than that enjoyed the environment over there . Me and my cousin had a great time. The pizzas were delicious and right from the oven . Loved the place .. would definitely recommend this place . . Now I generally read reviews and check the place out . This is genuine and honest review by my experience . I always appreciate local and hardworking staff .

Bruschetta

This little spot in the square of downtown Oakville is good for a quick, easy going lunch. It is a casual setting and would also work for a family dinner. The Caesar salad dressing was light but had a nice amount of garlic. It is dressed as a vinaigrette. It comes loaded with parmesan cheese. The pizza was served at the same time as our salad so it was cold when we got to it. They reheated it for us no problem. One of us loved the dessert - One didn’t so I guess we have to go back to try again! They have a plant based menu! ✅ More content on Instagram @linreviews

Me and my friends' go-to place for lunch forever ( we were too hungry and forgot to get pics of the entrees ) Enjoy my pic of the crackling caramelized and velvety custardy creme brulee tho

Recently visited the restaurant for lunch with a large group and all were very disappointed with the limited menu, service, and quality of the food. The owner didn’t even acknowledge nor apologize for a cold burger that was sent back. We have been to this restaurant before under different owners and everything was amazing as you would expect from a restaurant in Oakville. Do yourself a favor and stay away from this restaurant!

Owners are really relaxed and nice and very cool not to rush anyone out. Very good pizza and with all the drinks and food the amount of the bill was not a shock as a lot of places are nowadays. Anyways I would definitely come back with friends or family, the female helping us was great, sorry forgot your name, but glasses and dirty blonde hair. Really friendly and very hard working

I had the calamari appetizer which came with two slices of bread. Sadly, my bread was burnt and the calamari was very salty. My husband had the most flavourless pizza we have ever eaten. Do not recommend. Live music was pleasant, the only good thing in this restaurant.

My friends and I always have a wonderful time here, the food is delicious, the service is excellent, the ambiance is amazing especially on Fridays and Saturdays when there is live entertainment.

Had a great time at Piazza on a week night. Wanted to pop by for a quick night cap with a friend, but ended up spending hours at the bar with Amar whipping up delicious cocktails, Kirsten recommending excellent wines and Sarah providing outstanding service. Will definitely be back. More

This place is not great. We ordered a tequila sunrise and the cocktail tasted like room temperature orange juice. We ordered calamari. It cost $15.99 tasted worse than a grocery store takeout. This place is a joke. Will not visit ever.Waste our hard earned $$.

Went here for dinner with some friends and it was absolutely amazing! staff is very warm and welcoming along with it’s environment. I got to try some delicious dishes that i’ve never had before and was very impressed, can’t wait to come back! More

Can’t get enough of the food here. Since they underwent new management - including hiring Chef Zack (previously Canoe Restaurant), it’s been a game changer for their menu. Love the arancini, all the pizza (you can the pizza dough is made in

DO NOT COME. These new owners and staff are absolutely 10/10 HORRIBLE. Everyone should be fired and replaced. Food doesn’t taste the same. Service took forever. Portions are smaller. And the staff are plain just rude and management does not

We had lunch today here and were very disappointed about the food and the service. We waited for more than 50 minutes to receive the food. The pizza had absolutely no cheese and the pasta was tasteless.. and what made things worse was that

We used to be the fan of this restaurant. We crave for their roasted Calamari, and their veg pizzas, but the last time we were there, calamari was burnt and bitter and the manager said it is the way their calamari turn out, and the pizza

We stumbled onto this place. We were greeted at the door, sat quickly - they rearranged things to fit us in to a busy night. The food was outstanding, the service was attentive and friendly. Truly a great find. They even had live music.

The mushroom arancini is reason enough to try this place. Cozy little restaurant in Oakville, I have nothing bad to say. The grilled calamari, the focaccia and olive oil, the tiramisu; I loved it all. It’s a must-try and I will be back.

Good food and vibe overall. The service was okay, some of the servers were not very friendly. For apps I’d highly recommend the rice balls and calamari. For the mains the veal and pizza iwere really good. Fairly small portions as well.

Piazza -Located in Downtown Oakville Town Square- only thing better than the exceptional food, are the owners Mini and Amar. They are passionate about food, obsessed with great service and just generally wonderful people. Pastas are

Service was a bit strange. Was seated and waited at least 10 minutes before a server acknowledged our table. I found the service to be a bit slow. Food was tasty. The cheesecake was my favourite! The atmosphere was quite relaxing.

A wonderful cozy, intimate setting with Live music and food that looks like a piece of art. Do visit and experience yourself. Their wine selection is just out of this world.
