Of all the great options in the food court, this is what my boyfriend and I settled on, and it was a bit of a miss. We ordered the lemon kale caesar salad and diavolo pasta. The salad was simply a caesar salad: virtually no kale or parmesan, and the lemon is just a lemon wedge that you have to squeeze on yourself. The diavolo pasta flavor was actually quite good and a bit zingy, but the pasta was very undercooked and lukewarm. It’s a shame because the food does look very good!

Overall decent for mall food. The line took a while (I believe someone was training on register during the Saturday lunch rush). The food was lukewarm and the grilled chicken had tendons/hard bits in it. Adding protein was $3.50 for 1/2 cup of meat – expensive in my opinion. It was about $15 for the pasta bowl pictured. There is no seating specifically for this place but there is mall seating (filled up fast). Glad I tried it but I don’t think I would go again.

Looks better than it tastes, but that might have been my picks. Menu is confusing as it doesn’t tell you what you need to order and when staff is asked you get pointed back to the menu, around the corner, that didn’t tell you anything in the first place like you are stupid with blank stares on their face.
It’s a chipotle esqe, ordering experience, but just go to Chipotle instead…it’s far better.

I really wish I’d discovered this place a bit earlier! What a great find. The menu is solid, and everything tastes fresh and full of flavor.
If it’s your first time here, ordering can feel a little hectic. They could really use some self-order kiosks — trying to explore the menu and order at the same time is a bit of a juggle, especially when there’s a line behind you. During peak hours, I noticed things can back up a little at the counter.
That said, once the food arrived, all was forgiven. It was fresh, tasty, and absolutely worth the wait.

Chief O’ is ACTUALLY the GOAT. Prices went up and our total was supposed to be $42, but he looked out for us and got it down to $25. Real one.
When we were broke and just trying to eat, he helped us out with no attitude, just straight kindness. Also the most amazing good pasta ever! That kind of customer service is rare.
Chief O’, you a legend fr. Piada better appreciate you because you’re the reason we’re coming back

I opted for an avocado cobb salad with a protein added. Staff were very accommodating to my special requests. All ingredients were freshly prepared and very high quality. Chef O and staff had high energy for the busy lunch crunch!

I took my lady to the MOA. On a whim, we stopped for lunch at Piada. Well, between the young man who took my order, to the young manwho finished the irder. Not one smile, hello, how can I help. I have worked customer service my whole life. When you work in a fast paced .all court, your number one prioiry should be to smile and appreciate the cusromer.
I ordered the Pasta Diovala and was expecting more spice, bold flavor. There was nothing. Pretty blah! I try to eat something not original to my home. This was a disappoinment.
I would not make a high recommendation to eat here.

I was great very respectfully. They were very clear with all possible options. They made my order very precisely and detailed. Food line was very clean. The service was outstanding. The food is very delicious, that’s why I keep coming back. I love the carbonara bowl with either grilled chicken, grilled steak or salmon.I have great short conversations with the employees. They are always friendly and speak. It’s a wonderful place to eat at!!!!!!!
