As someone who's originally from New York, I'll admit I'm a tough pizza critic -- but I genuinely…read moretry to keep an open mind and judge restaurants on their own merit. Unfortunately, Piezano's just didn't hit the mark for us. The biggest issue was the quality of the food. The pizza lacked freshness and flavor, and overall it felt poorly executed, especially for a place centered around pizza. It wasn't a matter of personal preference or style -- the quality itself was disappointing. That said, the staff were very friendly, kind, and attentive. Everyone we interacted with was polite and tried their best, though the team did seem quite young and possibly undertrained, which showed a bit in the overall experience. The most concerning part of our visit was the bathroom, which was absolutely disgusting. Cleanliness is a basic expectation for any restaurant, and this alone would make us hesitant to return. We really wanted to like this place, but between the food quality and the cleanliness issues, we don't see ourselves coming back. With some serious improvements to cleanliness and food execution, it could be better -- but as it stands, it missed the mark for us.

I ordered spaghetti with marinara and a side salad. I specifically asked for no cucumbers, but the salad still came out with them. It's one vegetable I absolutely hate, but I didn't send it back, just wish a little more attention had been paid to that request. The pasta itself wasn't very good. The marinara barely coated the noodles and didn't have much flavor, so I ended up asking for a side of Alfredo just to make it better. Overall, maybe I just ordered the wrong thing, but the food didn't impress me. The highlight of the experience was definitely the server handling such a large group so well.

The lemon drop martini was great, a little on the south side, which I don't mind. The Caesar salad was a good starter, as were a few appetizers (not pictured) that we started our meal with. I wish I remember the name of my pasta dish, but I don't see it on the full menu. We had a limited menu for the company party, but this was a cavatappi pasta with a white sauce, and I added shrimp to the dish. It was excellent! I also got to try The chicken Parmesan, lasagna, and a few other dishes. All were great for the price point. Overall, I would definitely recommend this spot for a casual date night, or a group event of any kind!

The woman working was incredibly friendly and attentive, which immediately set a great tone. My husband and kids ordered pizza, and I went with a baked potato loaded with the same toppings as their Mediterranean slice. So good!! The pizzas were thin and crispy, exactly how I like them. They even cut the kids' slices into small pieces, which I thought was absolutely genius. Honestly, how is this the first time I've seen that? Our food came with freshly baked bread that was delicious. And really, who can say no to carbs on carbs? They also have a full beer selection, plus a pool table and foosball, which kept the kids entertained while we ate. Yia Yia's is probably my new favorite pizza place. We live in Omaha, but I would absolutely drive to Lincoln just for this pizza. Delicious food, great service, and very reasonable prices. Highly recommend!

We ordered cocktails and Calamari for our appetizer which was perfectly done and lightly breaded, the best we've ever enjoyed. Tasty homemade rolls with butter and Seasoned Olive Oil came with our creamy soup and salad. The Seafood Alfredo was to die for, the creamy sauce paired perfectly with huge shrimp, mussels, clams and scallops. The creamy brandy sauce that enveloped my husband's order was delightful. Our service was professional and accommodating. We never felt rushed, it was a leisurely dining experience. My only regret is not ordering the Tiramisu with a cup of coffee to make the perfect finish. Next time. The prices are totally reasonable for such delicious offerings. It reminded me of the old Legion Club, The Nebraska Club and Tony and Luigi's. All three of which are terribly missed. Lincoln is so lacking in providing a relaxing, lovely dining experience but now there is one restaurant we will gladly patronize. Thank you to the Chef and to all the kind staff for a memorable evening.

I got the Carsoni (pesto) and did both chicken and shrimp which was $22, it's enough for two meals though so this is fair. The sauce was flavorful, good consistency of oil and basil. Loved that it included mushrooms but could have used more of them in it, also had bell pepper and broccoli. I'm not sure broccoli goes too well with the pesto dish, but it was steamed well and soft. The shrimp were huge and they had 4-5 in the dish. We also did bruschetta as an app, and loved the fresh tomatoes/garlic/herbs on top. Loved the dipping sauce with the bread as im a balsamic/oil freak. The soup was just okay, it was a creamy chicken/potato but it was very pureed and not quite what I was expecting, I'm not sure there was even a chunk of chicken in it. I've definitely had better next time, I'll be inclined to try the salad instead. Drinks were fun, I enjoyed the black raspberry margarita flavor and a limoncello spritz although both appeared a bit too watered down and not too strong. Service was fine, however hard to really judge since we came during mid-day late lunch and I'm pretty sure we were the only table there.
