"Drop whatever you’re doing and go have some gnocchi here. It is hands-down, the most perfect gnocchi I’ve had on this side of the Atlantic. I ordered it with the mushroom cream sauce (that wasn’t listed as the gnocchi sauce, but they substituted with no problem.) The texture was light, yet toothy. The sauce held to it perfectly."

La Piazza is a gem in Orinda. Great pasta dishes and wonderful pizzas that do not overwhelm the dinner. The carpaccio is excellent, which is not common in Italian restaurants these days. The brick oven and the view of the theatre across give La Piazza a romantic atmosphere. The staff is – whether we are with the kids or not – superb. The owner, Charles, is a very charming man who loves his work. He makes La Piazza a 5 star experience. Lovely restaurant in Orinda!
