    I would agree with the Latuff's is better. Went once to Piazza's - underwhelming.

      Piazza's is good and basic; nothing fancy but sometimes that's exactly what I want. The baked ziti is great and the drink prices are low. I used to live close by and went every couple months when I was craving basic spaghetti and meatballs but didn't want to cook. Now that I haven't been in over a year I can't remember what else I ate there.

        Go to Latuff''s on 55 near Holiday Station Store instead. Family owned good food, good prices. About 2 miles west of that place - went once - comparable to nursing home food.

          I also am not a big fan of Piazza's but my parents love it. They are owned by members of the same family that owned Cafe Di Napoli. Some of the recipes are the same.

          I also agree that Latuff's is your better bet.

          Went there a few years ago. It was unremarkable, at best. If you want "red sauce Italian" you're better off heading to one of the places in St. Paul.
