La Piazza Courtyard & Lounge - Manotick

Nice Experience at your Restaurant. My husband and I finally tried your restaurant yesterday for the first time after hearing the ads on the Jewel radio station for quite awhile. We live in Ottawa and made the nice drive to Manotick. We were impressed by everything. The restaurant and courtyard are really our style and the food was absolutely amazing. We went with the Italian food yesterday, but we will be making several more trips to the restaurant to try other items on your menu. Our server, Barry was very good. Keep up the great work at La Piazza!<br/ <br/ Best regards,<br/ <br/ Lynn and Dan Marchand

I'm shocked by people saying they don't like this place! Absolutely amazing food and price point is bang on for what you are getting... Great food great drinks and out of this world service! Erin was our server tonight and was joking, friendly, outgoing and very attentive. The live music (the Fake Mccoys) made the beautiful atmosphere even better. We will be coming back, and I will be bringing friends and family for sure! Please give this place a try, come in and enjoy the people, food, drinks, and atmosphere!

We visited this restaurant on a busy Friday night. They have a large but cozy courtyard/patio that was really inviting but unfortunately it was raining. We sat inside which was quite crowded and loud. Despite the crowds, the atmosphere did not resemble the hustle and bustle of a busy diner but rather had a more festive feel to it. It reminded me of some of the beach side restaurants I have been at while on vacation. Very relaxed. The food was good. I had the Penne with sausage (I forget the fancy name) and my husband had fettuccine with seafood (clams or oysters I think). We both really enjoyed our meals. The wine and desserts were great although overall it is a little pricey. I would definitely go back, but due to the price, it wouldn't be a place we go to regularly. $110 for two pasta entrees, two glasses of wine and one dessert each.

Good Date spot. Have been here four times now. The first time was a magical fall evening last year in late Septmeber where it was still very warm. We enjoyed a late night glass of wine and antipasto platter on the patio. The band, which played mostly covers of a latin flavor, was energetic and talented. This winter went again and sat indoors in the private area and it was a lovely meal. That time my partner enjoyed the parmigiana and I had the stuffed chicken masala, both very good. The wine recommendations suited as well. Have been back twice this season on the patio again late in the evening and have enjoyed the band (more classic rock-Santana style and our meals again. Service overall discrete but attentive, only lacking a little on one occasion where we were in the same section as a table of 12, so understandable. We will go again once we save up :

Amazing Italian. I'm always surprised at how the exterior of this AMAZING restaurant stays so unassuming looking. The food here is hands down some of the best Italian in the city, in a quaint, quiet environment. I initially went last Fall and again recently for Valentine's Day and both experiences were phenomenal. The wait staff is professional, classy, fun, friendly, and helpful, and the food is truly exceptional. The wine list is extensive, and the servers are always great with recommendations.
