Fuoriporta - PIACENZA

I went to this pizzeria the other evening with a group of people. The one and only waitress got a large part of the orders WRONG. Then when the mistake was pointed out she got defensive. For example , one person ordered a ‘white’ pizza with buffallina on top. White pizza means NO tomato sauce. Instead the pizza she received had tomato sauce. Another lady order seafood pasta which should have come with different shellfish. Instead the fish was only anchioves! The white wine they served at the table was flat and old. Another lady ordered clams and got a pasta dish. This lady is celiac and cannot eat pasta! The waitress huffed when her mistake was pointed out ! It took forever to get our desserts and when they arrived the portions were minuscule. They had air conditioners in the restaurant but didn’t use them. Many in the group complained about how hot it was. Will we return for another dinner ? Definitely not. They did not even apologize !

Staying at Stadio Hotel we popped in here for a beer. The waitress was chatty as we asked her about the two options on the menu board, both were seared tuna sounded fantastic. We decided to eat! We had the seafood risotto which was a huge portion, not sure if they gave us any extra as we were sharing, it was lovely. I then had the sliced seared tuna which was fabulous! Apparently the pizza was okay nothing exciting. We then shared dolce, something which looked like black pudding but was chocolate delicious but very rich! Definitely recommend if you are near.

This is the official restaurant of Hotel Stadio and is a welcome relief after a days’ work with a cold beer. The menu is modest but the food is really good at an unbeatable price.

We went here for a meal on a recent business trip. The staff were very friendly and the prices were great. I found the pizza a little disappointing compared to others I have had in Italy but we did have a very good evening. The limoncello was also a bit poor.

I had a really great time,brave! !
