Lousy new manager! Been here before, as I enter to order a salad to go, the guy stops the line and says that myself and a girl that sometimes I come with, are always packing up the salad with lots of toppings, and according to him, we do it on purpose so that we may split it, mind you, we order calamari and chicken on it, and the salad becomes $12-$14. isnt that enough for a salad at a fast food place? By default, topping portions are extremely skimpy, you can barely see or taste the chicken or other toppings. I should charge you for two salads he said. Who the hell is this guy? Send him back to the Beachwood store where he came from! Mind you, all this is happening while a line is forming behind! I walked out! Are you sure you dont want to stay? he said. No thanks I dont need to be insulted in front of the waiting staff and customers. Finally I pointed out as I have in the past, that the new grains bowl didnt resemble the photo promoting it above the counter. Either, their preparation of that dish is skimpily prepared, which I believe it is, or your photo is very misleading, which I also believe it is. So it is one or the other or in this case both, sort of a TV dinner with a good photo and a mediocre terrible product. Why not make it right! In the summer you also have a big problem with your strawberry-avocado salad. They are always running out of key ingredients here, and when they have them you barely get any, might as well bring a magnifier to locate them. Overall a crappy experience made worse by lousy management! In conclusion, I walked out and went to Panda Express instead, and carried out a dinner which was consistent in taste and portion.

First let me say I love piada. I have been to several other locations and had an awesome experience each time. This specific location was the worst experience I have had in a while. While the staff was nice, they audibly talk about how unappealing the food looked that was being put into my order. I ordered the steak avocado wrap. When I ate it it was steak and corn with some bland white sauce. Thats it. Not to mention it was smaller than a 12 oz. Can of soda for $8.99. My wife ordered the tasca sandwich the chicken was inedible it was so over cooked. It was disappointing to say the least and I think its mostly a management issue, but it was so bad I felt it needed mentioned.

Average pasta. They kind of skimp on the sauce. I havent tried the wraps, which seem popular. Not quite worth the price. For pasta and a drink youre paying about $10. It would be a good deal at $7-8. They have 4 flavors of Italian soda on a refillable fountain, which is great if you dine in, but their only cup size is 16-20 oz and costs $2.50 so its not great for a to go drink. The dine in experience is cafeteria like. It is definitely no Mirkos, but if youre craving "cheap" pasta, its about the only option in the area.

Its all about finding what works for you. I personally believe that all of the "hot"(temp) sauces are extremely bland and lack flavor while the room temp ones are pretty amazing/quite flavorful. Its like chipotle..you need to find the right COMBINATION. Plus the Cannoli sticks are to DIE for. YUM. BUT I must say that the piada...burrito sort of thing is pretty basic and they should go back to the drawing board w/ it.

The premise that an Italian restaurant can do what Chipotle does (basic, same ordering structure only with Italian fare) proved to be unowrthy of a stop. The Piada Stick we had was burnt and should NOT have been served. The Alfredo sauce was runny and the quality of food was not good at all. My wife and I will not return and will patiently wait in the long lines at the Chipotle for our next burrito bowl.

Fresh well made food, with phenomenal service. I was waiting for my food for about 5 minutes and upon finding out, the manager immediately tended to my order while providing me a gift card for my next visit. This kind of service is very important to me, and is something that is hard to find these days. I highly recommend this location as well as the entire chain.

I was visiting some friends for the weekend and visited Piada for lunch. I had a delicious pasta bowl with a Piada stick, My friend had a salad and she was able to choose exactly which toppings she wanted as they prepared it in front of us. I have visited other locations and this one was no different in providing a great fresh meal that tasted fabulous!

I was visiting from England and I ate here several times. The staff were working their fingers to the bone with the crowds wanting their order. They did get my order wrong a couple of times but were very sorry. But what they made for me I ate and loved! So no problems. I would highly recommend here

Food was pretty good, but service was slow, tables were dirty, bathroom was stinky and the floor was sticky. Check out the trail of muck on the pavement leading out of the restaurant door. It was a shame because I went months ago and was very pleased with food, service and establishment.

Great option for wraps, pasta, or salads with an Italian theme. Lines can be extensive during dinner hours, so it may make sense to order online to beat the rush. My favorite option is the crispy fritte Piada, but I see most people ordering pasta most likely due to the generous portions.

This place is like the Italian version of Chipotle. The food is very fresh and it has a lot of different ingredients you can add to a Pasta Bowl both large and small. They also offer great protein options such as calamari and salmon for the pescatarians like me

Maybe its just because I get the crispy chicken, but the last 3, maybe 4, times Ive ordered food I had to wait almost 10 minutes after I paid to receive my completed order. The food is good, but its not always timely.

Tasty food we have been a few times now. I like their traditional red sauce much better than the white sauce they have, the meatballs and salmon are both surprisingly good. Dont forget the garlic dough!

Found a hair in my dish, and have not been back since. There is an unusually high number of employees with facial hair. I would advise management to make certain that staff follow proper hygiene.

Customized, angel hair pasta bowls and rolled tortilla Piada wraps. Breeze-through online ordering system with a rapid pick-up spot at the end of the counter. Fantastic service and quick ordering.

Buono, ma non per la pasta! Insalate, sandwich meritano. Il resto lasciate stare

Skeptical because of the fact that the owner on this Google review site only took head to the good comments and didnt bother trying to fix the bad ones I will not try this place out...

Its Italian chipotle, and its delicious! Portions are huge and priced around 8$. Try the calamari and peppers. This place will probably be a franchise someday.
