La Piazza Cucina Italiana - Springfield

Absolutely wonderful. Pleasant vibe, friendly staff, and the spaghetti is genuinely AMAZING- I adore spaghetti, sometimes I eat it three times a day (my diet is not good but my spaghetti tastes are refined probably and this is genuinely in my top 5 favorite spaghettis of all time. In addition, the staff did not judge me for requesting cold pepperoni on the side. (It's really good in spaghetti trust me I had the lunch special priced at $6 a couple of days ago, and the amount you get for the low price is pretty decent! The dinner price, which I'm eating right now as I type this, was closer to $13 and the portion size was doubled, with way more bread. I don't live in Illinois, but with spaghetti like this so accessible, I almost wish I did. I will miss this pasta deeply upon my departure from this state. I want to try the pizza next time, but I'm afraid of getting even more emotionally attached! Though my wording of this review may be goofy and chaotic in nature, I assure you that every word is sincere and genuine. Thank you La Pizza Cucina Italiana for showing me how to love again :

Went for lunch and wasn't really sure what to expect, but I feel comfortable saying that this place is the best fast-casual Italian food in Springfield. The lunch specials are priced very competitively, include a drink, and the owner working the cash register was extremely friendly and inviting. I will definitely be back!Food: 5/5

I have not had such a fantastic Italian meal since I was stationed in Sicily for 3 years. The service was as outstanding as the food and I highly recommend this restaurant.

We loved this place and couldn't have been more impressed with how we were welcomed to Springfield. The gentleman taking our order gave us ideas on what to do, how to get places and even invited us future use of their restroom if needed when we were out the next day.Food: 5/5

They were packed when we got there the line was about a 5-10minute wait which is completely normal for the crowd. By the time I sat down MY FOOD WAS READY. Cheap prices amazing food. GO NOW OMGFood: 5/5
