The menu at La Piazza Cafe offers an impressive selection that caters to diverse tastes while remaining deeply rooted in Italian culinary tradition.

Seafood lovers will appreciate the succulent Shrimp Scampi and the elegantly prepared Flounder Francese, while hearty appetites can enjoy the classic Lasagne or the deeply flavorful Bolognese.

For a sweet finale, the Cannoli is simply irresistible—a delicate shell filled with creamy, sweet ricotta that melts delightfully on the tongue. This balance of flavors, from appetizers to desserts, showcases La Piazza’s dedication to genuine Italian flavors done with superior craftsmanship.

    Outstanding Double Porkchop! I seldom order pork chops while dining out but the server’s description was so enticing that I couldn’t resist. The chop was juicy, well seasoned and had a very mild pineapple salsa topping that combined in an amazing way. Simply, the very best porkchop I’ve ever had in any restaurant. Thanks to Cory and all the other staff at LaPiazza for another wonderful evening. Our favorite restaurant in Palm Coast by far!

    Thursday saw us take a road trip to one of the gems of Palm Coast- La Piazza Cafe in the beautiful European Village. We had been to this restaurant in the past, so it was an excellent choice to celebrate Vicki's birthday. We found plenty of free parking in the lot near the restaurant. If you've never been to the European Village, it is a quaint collection of restaurants and shops. It's a great place to walk around and get a bite to eat when you're in Palm Coast. Our waitress JoJo brought us drinks and bread quickly enough. For some reason, she lost her order pad so our dinners were a bit delayed. However, when dinner did arrive it was delicious as usual. I went with my favorite, Chicken Parmesan. The chicken was plump and the sauce exquisite. Birthday girl Vicki ordered the Chicken Alfredo, which looked very cheesy. Our guests had Eggplant Parmesan and the Chicken Parmesan. I noticed the Eggplant seemed to be thick and juicy. The birthday girl enjoyed the Tiramisu for dessert, which she described as dreamy. We all left very satisfied with our dinners. La Piazza is the best Italian restaurant in Palm Coast, and is well worth a visit when in the neighborhood.

    La Piazza hosted a private birthday celebration and family reunion, of sorts, on Saturday the 27th of September. Our group was approx 35 people - aged 4 to 90, and the room, decor, and restaurant were all outstanding. All guests really loved the selection of food created and served at La Piazza. I can't thank Brian and Corey enough for the SUPERB service they provided to all guests and also my enthusiastic thanks to Larry - Jr, and Sr, for assisting me in planning this event. All guests had a tremendous time, loved the food, and were noteably impressed by this Palm Coast, European Village gem. This was not my first time to experience La Piazza, and it won't be the last. La Piazza continues to impress. Thank you Larry Jr, Larry Sr, Brian, Corey, and the culinary staff behind the scenes. Really, really appreciate it.

    Our favorite restaurant for the 10 years I’ve lived here! Although I don’t go as often as I’d like, La Piazza is our go to for special occasions and date night. We held my dad’s 80th Birthday Party and my daughter’s graduation party there. Larry Sr and Jr are the most accommodating and thoughtful owners. There is no comparison when it comes to the dishes Josh creates and their wait staff is top notch, esp Andre and Nicky! I love the lobster roll and any fish that is on their specials board…but then again, you can’t go wrong with any of their apps or entrees to be honest…I believe I’ve been there enough to have tried nearly everything. Also, if you get a chance, their monthly wine dinners are truly fabulous! Enjoy and you’re welcome!

    Perfect place to host an Italian family event! I have high expectations and the owner, Larry, was able to meet all of them. We are looking forward to hosting many more family events and eating at the restaurant for an authentic Italian meal. They even accommodate gluten allergies. Thank you so much for making my sister’s baby shower so special!

    Very nice experience! Visited during late afternoon hours, sat at the bar, ordered from regular dinner menu, no special bar bites selection, met Larry Jr, one of the owners….very pleasant. Marissa at the bar very helpful with respect to menu selection. Reservations a must, decor nicely appointed. Most service members were very pleasant. Average price per person for dinner $60.00 & up. Worth returning for special occasion…

    Decent Italian food. Great atmosphere. The bread and oil were great. Perfect Caesar salad with anchovies. The bruschetta sampler was delicious. The pasta dishes were okay. We didn’t care for the halibut. Fitting service for the price.
