From Italy, the native land of pasta and pizza, a simple idea came to two brothers, Stefano and Dante, over 20 years ago. Today, it has become a giant, known as Piola. The idea was to reinvent the quintessential Italian establishment, a pizzeria, to become a comfortable, contemporary, and trendy place where one can enjoy authentic, homemade and simple Italian food. Piola, is now in more than 30 cities across the globe, in the United States, Brazil, Argentina, Chile, and Mexico. If you crave it, you will find it even on West 12th Street in New York City.
Piola means “the tavern,” a meeting place in ancient Italian dialect. Although Piola is international and trendy, the cuisine is traditional Italian—simple and healthy, light and fresh. The pizza is thin crust and cooked in a brick oven. The pizza menu and the rest of the menu are ingeniously diverse and caters to its international as well as its local clientele.
The setting is congenial, colorful, comfortable, and trendy, while the service is friendly.
