    We celebrated our 5th anniversary at Piatti today, and it was absolutely perfect! From start to finish, every tiny detail was amazing. The service was outstanding—attentive, friendly, and made us feel truly special on our big day. And the food? Incredible! Every bite was packed with flavor and beautifully presented. We couldn’t have asked for a better dining experience. We loved it and will definitely be back! Thank you, Piatti, for making our anniversary unforgettable.

    Being recent SF Bay Area transplants (Roseville 2023) - we have had a challenge in finding a good / excellent Italian restaurant. We tried this place just recently (12/21/24). It's an Italian(!) restaurant vs a restaurant that makes Italian inspired dishes. An offshoot restaurant of the original Biba (Sact'o) - it has reinvented itself a bit with a new head chef from SF (James Brush) and pastry chef Penny Sheridan). Everything we had was prepared perfectly. Beet salad, lightly dressed. Gnocchi - light as pillows. Veal marsala - spot on. We passed on dessert, but did see some of them come out and they looked divine. Maybe next time ;-D. Service was attentive, relaxed and not overwhelming. We will certainly go back. Strongly recommend this place.

    Environment is elegant but not stuffy. Service is superior. Our server invested time early on explaining the menu in detail which was very helpful. Pace of the four course dinner was relaxed but not too slow. The food was amazing and Allora clearly deserves its stellar reputation.
