Misleading special - most Italian places provide complimentary bread. They ask you if you want bread when you sit down. Once you order the special each person if they don't pick bread as their side choice - and they don't tell you it's bread or soup or salad - each person is charged for the whole loaf- so it's not free and you just added an 8 dollar bread order to your bill. Good food though and salad portions and main entree portions were large. read more

Lunch menu was affordable and meal choices were exceptional. Bruschetta was flavorful with a tangy and sweet combo. Minestrone soup and Cesar salad were great appetizers. Margarita pizza and bolognese rigatoni was good. Service was expert and will be back read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Lovely Atmosphere, Good Food, But Service Missed the Mark[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] My husband and I visited Piatti at the Quarry for a Friday lunch, and it turned out to be a beautiful May afternoon. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We sat outside, enjoyed the weather, and appreciated how peaceful the patio felt. It was not crowded, and parking was easy since it is at the Quarry.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I ordered the Burrata, which was delicious. For my main, I chose the Lemon Ricotta Ravioli. The flavor was delicate and light, but I did not realize the pasta was spinach. The spinach flavor ended up overpowering the lemon more than I expected. My husband ordered the Spicy Pepperoni Pizza and thought it was very good. The service is where things fell short. They had only been open for about two hours and were not busy, yet it took a long time for our waitress to take our order. What made it more frustrating was that she never mentioned the three-course lunch specials, which we would have definitely taken advantage of. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Overall, the food was good, and the atmosphere was lovely. It even had a bit of a European feel.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The service, however, could be much better. read more

Decent Italian American spot in the Alamo Quarry. I've been here twice on separate occasions and both had pretty good experiences with the food. Service has been friendly both visits and my most recent visit was during peak lunch time on a Thursday. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Ambiance is casual, but nice.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]A great spot for business lunches.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] For appetizers, I recommend the fritto misto which is their calamari. Bruschetta is kind of on the sweeter side so I didn't like it as much. For my entree, I liked the bolognese, which is fresh and sauce has ample meat without being too watery. read more

Amazing food, haven't had this good in years. Hubby went crazy for the sour dough and oil dip Shrimp especially was tasty and not just plain grilled. How do they do it? The simple oil and garlic we asked for they added butter and omgsh what an amazing dish. Compliments to the chef The menu didn't seem to cover much of all our questions but they were answered in person Service was excellent Reservations recommended esp on weekends Plenty of desserts including gluten free options [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great location[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

For this visit to Piatti I met some friends for lunch and I loved their lunch offerings. I had chicken Alfredo and a salad, and the portions were so generous that I had to take some home. Our server was so helpful and kind and she had wonderful recommendations. I love the bar at Piatti and the bartenders are always good for serving amazing drinks. For the table, we shared bread with olive oil and tried several of their desserts. Everything was made to perfection. Piatti is such a good addition to the Quarry for truly traditional Italian food. It is a great restaurant with wonderfully handcrafted food and craft drinks. read more

Good Italian food! I finished my plate with no pictures.. we got bruschetta as appetizer, that was good. Though too much carbs piling up. Then my main was pasta with meat sauce, amazing! Portion was great so I didn't need to take food home. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place is spacious and loud.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Our waiter was attentive and filled our drinks frequently. Too bad that we didn't have room for desserts, but would be back next time. Hopefully I'll get some pictures then! Solid Italian food! read more

Piatti used to be a favorite of mine, but after a bad experience a few years ago I stopped going. It's been a few years since my burnt pasta incident, and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They've renovated since my last visit. It's bright, open and inviting.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I had a caesar salad, short rib suge, and tiramisu. Everything was really good and flavorful. I would've liked a little more dressing on my salad, but I probably like more dressing than most. I'll definitely be back, but I'll have to try a few more dishes to really justify a higher rating. read more

My wife and I came here for a late dinner and wine. We used to come here all the time and had not been in a while. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They've updated the ambience and moved things around a little. I like the change[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] . [[HIGHLIGHT]]I believe they made the old entrance a private area for groups with access to an outside area where the front door was.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They have an excellent wine menus and the pasta was cooked perfectly .

For a Friday night date night we decided to check out Piatti in the Quarry. When we visited SA before moving here we would frequent this restaurant. Oh how things have changed. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The update to the restaurant was refreshing but I think I prefer the old design.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] But the food has the same delicious taste I remembered. We had the bread with oil and the meatballs to start. They didn't disappoint. For our mains we had the Bolognese and the Short Rib Supo. Talk about yum. Service initially was a little slow. But as the meal went on it got better. I highly recommend checking out Piatti. read more

I was really disappointed with the food. I ordered the fettuccine Alfredo, and unfortunately it was the worst I've ever had. The pasta was extremely chewy and the overall flavor was not good at all.

My cousins wanted to go here for their birthday because apparently the other locations have excellent food. This was my first time and my last the food was lousy. I got the clam rigatoni which had an interesting presentation with black noodles but it had no flavor at all. It tasted like steamy water with noodles that we used to eat when we're little and we were too poor for any ingredients. The bread was okay the ricotta was was good but you got to be pretty bad to screw that up. After tax and gratuity you're looking at about 30 something dollars for a plate which is absolutely not worth it I had better Italian food from a food truck at a baseball park. Drink water just to wash my mouth out and then I ordered the chicken alfredo. The noodles were overcooked and rubbery, the sauce felt like they stir fried the sauce into the rubber noodles which had little flavor and the sauce was dry like I was eating old school elementary macaroni and cheese just did not have the flavor texture or the sauciness that you normally get with alfredo sauce. This whole experience was a disaster. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Our waitress was good the other service had Smiles the place was clean but the food terrible.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Our bill came over $100 which was absolutely not worth it. This should be featured on Hell's Kitchen because that's what it felt like disastrous. I would never recommend this place to anyone. Go to Nacogdoches and Thousand Oaks there's a little hole in the wall that's a quarter of the price and their food is phenomenal. read more

Piatti's reopened after a brief closure to remodel and revamp the menu, back in spring 2023. Since then, they have received a lot of negative reviews from the "regulars" because the atmosphere has changed, and the menu has been revamped. I'm here to tell you to ignore all of those reviews! I will admit that I had never been before, so I am reviewing it for what it IS, and not what is WAS. I've been a couple of times since their remodel, and I think the service is consistently good, the atmosphere is great, and the food is cooked and prepared well. Most dishes run just a bit north of the $20 line, but they are very tasty. Most of the entrees are large enough to share, or at least take home leftovers. The Mushroom Campanelle is my favorite, followed by the Short Rib. They usually participate in San Antonio's Restaurant week, so use that as an excuse to get out there and try something you normally wouldn't. Last, but not least - the desserts are the bomb diggity! Try their tiramisu or their fried donuts (the fried donuts are the best!). EMBRACE CHANGE, PEOPLE! You will learn to love it!!! read more

The food and service weren't bad, but neither was good enough for me to give Piatti any more than 3 stars, especially for the price point. Piatti is located at the Alamo Quarry Market on Basse just east of the 281. It's an Italian eatery that's located right by the mini traffic circle on the east side of the market. While on my temporary assignment in San Antonio, one of my co-workers recommended an Italian place that started with a P, but it wasn't Piatti. I was looking up Italian eateries in San Antonio, and this one caught my attention not because it also started with a P, but because it was at the Quarry Market, which was my very first stop in the Alamo City. When I came in, a couple of hostesses were there to greet me, and I asked for a takeout menu, which was an elongated sheet of paper, no less than tabloid size I would say. Actually, I had seen the menu beforehand on their website, which you can see at https://sanantonio.piatti.com/menu. However, I couldn't assume the prices online were the same as the prices of that day, so I had to check to make sure the dishes I had in mind were still at the same prices. I also wanted to see if there was something else that sounded good, but with so many Italian terms on the menu that I wasn't familiar with, I didn't want to take my chances. I settled for the Salmon Piccata and the Beef Carpaccio. I really wanted some salmon since I hadn't had any seafood on my San Antonio trip up to that point, and I recalled seeing a handful of Beef Carpaccio photos from my Yelp friends. The hostess didn't give me a whole lot of time to peruse the menu, but since I couldn't decide on any other pair of dishes, I stuck it with the Salmon Piccata and the Beef Carpaccio. I also wanted the hostess to describe the dishes to me since, like I said, there was way too much Italian on the menu that I didn't really have much of an idea as to what I was getting myself into. The hostess did a good enough job of explaining the dishes to me that I was confident that I'd like the meal. But maybe I was too confident. The hostess then asked for my phone number and first name. First name, okay, except she spelled my name with a C even after I said it was spelled with two E's. Ugh, well at least it had two E's like I said lol. But the phone number? Why? Apparently, it was to keep my info in their system so they could greet me as a returning customer. Well, here's the thing: My phone number's area code is a California area code, so do you really think I'd be a returning customer? Well, it's possible, but they would have had to impress me by a great deal in order to warrant a return visit, especially with so many other eateries in this city. The phone number could have been used to text me when my order was ready, but it was just too hot outside, even for this SoCal Yelper. I received no such text, and I don't know if giving my number will do any good. The hostess told me it'd be about 20 minutes before my order would be ready. She handed me my order after 16 minutes. Not bad! However, I didn't get any plastic utensils to go with my takeout bag. Inside my takeout bag were two small takeout boxes. They're not your standard square takeout boxes for a normal meal. If you've ever been to a JOEY Restaurant, which has a location in Houston, it's pretty much the same sized takeout box as JOEY. For ~$50, I was expecting better, but both the Salmon Piccata and the Beef Carpaccio were underwhelming. The Beef Carpaccio had just a few pieces of salty cheese and thinly sliced raw beef, kind of like a meat & cheese charcuterie board with prosciutto. The actual meat was good, but the cheese was really salty and overpowered the taste of the meat. Even though the hostess said it was one of her favorites, I would definitely not call it a favorite of mine. The salmon comes with white bean-garlic purée, and while the purée wasn't bad, I don't think it married well with the salmon. Since I mentioned JOEY, I will make another reference and suggest that a Truffle Beurre Blanc would have gone better with the salmon, but alas, that is French, and incorporating French into Italian would probably cause their native speakers to cry foul in spite of their sharing a border. Don't get me wrong, the salmon was still good, but it wasn't good enough to bring the rating up to a 4 after the super salty Beef Carpaccio. When placing my order, the hostess asked how I'd like my salmon cooked. I went with medium because sometime earlier this year, I learned that if you order a salmon medium, it will still be cooking even after you receive it. Overall, it wasn't bad, but I wouldn't set my expectations too high. And if I make a return visit to San Antonio, I'd probably try the other P Italian restaurant instead. read more

Piatti - Bolognese - Italian Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

I stopped in to Piatti's for the first time since they re-opened at the beginning of the year after an extensive remodel and menu overhaul on a Sunday for an early dinner around 5:30. My friend and I didn't have a reservation but the restaurant was only about half full and we were promptly seated. After this experience, I can't say that I'll be in a rush to make a return trip any time soon. Service was just ok. Our waiter barely checked in and went for very, very long periods without checking in. For example: at the end of the meal, he boxed up our dinners, dropped them off and walked away, and then we sat around waiting for him to come back for over 21 minutes before we ended up flagging him down and asking for the check. As another diner mentioned - after our waiter took took our drink orders, he asked if we wanted bread (thinking it was complimentary as in times past) and were surprised to see it was in fact a $4 charge added to the bill. Then there was the food. I went with the pork chop saltimbocca served over sautéed green beans. This was just ok - there was a large bone running right near the center of the pork chop making the bulk of the cut inedible. For a dinner that cost over $60 (without an alcoholic beverage) I left with little appetite to return any time soon. read more

A great experience at Piatti since it underwent its renovation, and we were very pleased with the changes! The interior has a much more modern look, the staff has new uniforms (not the greatest), and the new menu has some great new features along with some legacy dishes, too. Ian, our server, was fantastic in helping us navigate the new menu and provided some great recommendations. To start, we had the meatballs and ordered the sourdough ciabatta bread (no longer complimentary but still delicious and worth it) so we could enjoy it with the meatballs. By appearance, they didn't look that great but don't judge a meatball by its appearance. The interior was pleasantly tender and seasoned nicely. For our entrees, DH had the pork chop saltimbocca and I had the lemon ricotta ravioli (added shrimp). The ravioli are few but large and plump, so I was able to bring half of them home to enjoy for lunch the next day. For dessert, we shared the buttermilk panna cotta, which was the perfect finish to our delicious meal. Looking forward to trying more dishes from the new menu! read more

We often go to The Quarry but we have never seen this place for some reason. We stopped by for some drinks and a small app. The atmosphere and ambiance is super cute, great for a date night or to meet up with some friends. The drinks were really good - we got the Palomo and the Super Tuscan. They were tasty with fresh ingredients. We got the calamari as an appetizer and it came with jalapeño strips and olives in the batter which was unexpected. We didn't try too much on the menu but we would come back to try some more. read more

Had a wonderful meal at Piatti! The ambiance was so nice and our server was great (kind and fast - we mentioned we had a flight to catch). Overall, the food was rich and flavorful.

I loved the new layout of the restaurant, and saw many classic menu items as well as new! Definitely check out Piatti for a yummy Italian meal. :) read more

Came here for lunch. The place had been remodeled since the last time. The waitress was okay. Not very friendly.she had an attitude when my friends lasagna showed up in a cast iron serving dish that was the same size as the lasagna and was hard to cut and not spill every where. My friend said this is a hard dish to eat out of. The waitress said your the only person who thinks so. I had the Bolognese and it was delicious. It was a very large portion, in fact my friend and myself took our home. The atmosphere was nice. People were talking but it wasn't loud. You could carry on a conversation.

I've been visiting Piatti for 7+ years now (had a first date here and eventually got engaged here 2 years ago!), and even with the remodel and menu changes, I still enjoy it and feel that it's one of the better Italian restaurants in the SA area. The food is fresh and the menu has good variety, the ambiance is nice, and the service is good. They can work on consistency in flavor and service, but that's easily fixable. Overall, it's one of my go-to spots for pasta and I enjoy trying different entrees each time. We were able to walk-in on a Saturday night without a reservation and be seated right away at a high-top table. Personally, the remodeled space feels more open and clean and elevated to me. Some people complained they miss the old "intimacy" of the previous setting, but I prefer the brighter interior and upgraded table settings with expanded seating options. Our server was nice. She forgot to offer cracked black pepper for our salad, but she checked in on us multiple times and was efficient. No complaints on her end. The food was good and came out in a timely, well-paced manner. FOOD RATINGS: - Bread and oil (3.5/5): Gone are the days of complimentary bread. This bread is okay. You get 5 slices for $4, and I requested a side of butter in addition to the dipping oil. Nothing spectacular, but it fills the craving if you want bread with your meal. - Romaine salad (4/5): This would be better if it came already chopped and tossed. You're paying $15 to cut your own salad. Not a major thing, and overall I really enjoyed the freshness of the romaine and the crisp oregano vinaigrette. A simple yet bright and flavorful salad. - Short rib sugo (4/5): A favorite dish of mine that always hits the spot. The richness of the tender short rib is always good with the ribbon-y pappardelle noodles. I knocked a point because the sauce was too sweet and needed more salt. Otherwise it was a great dish. - Short rib (5/5): The creamy mascarpone polenta is delicious with the fall apart short rib and acidic salsa verde. A great combination and fairly-portioned dish. read more
