If you are looking for an amazing date night or even a great family dinner, Piatti Laguna Beach is a must.
We went on a Monday night and had no problem finding parking right in front of the restaurant, which already felt like a win in Laguna. From start to finish, everything was done right.
Donnie, the general manager, was extremely extremely helpful in guiding us through the menu and helping us choose our dishes. His recommendations were spot on and made the entire experience even better. Everyone there, from the moment we walked in, was so friendly and welcoming. The waitstaff was attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely kind.
The restaurant itself is very well kept, warm, and inviting. The ambiance is perfect. It truly feels like pure Italian family vibes.
We started with the octopus and it was absolutely delicious. Cooked perfectly, tender, and full of flavor. It came with puréed mushrooms and thick sliced mushrooms that complemented the dish beautifully. Easily one of the best octopus dishes I have had.
We shared a bottle of wine and also ordered an espresso martini and an Old Fashioned. And yes, they serve Old Fashioneds with the proper large ice cube for anyone who appreciates a well made cocktail. Attention to detail matters.
For food, we shared the spicy pizza and the portion was very generous. It is large enough to be your own meal or perfect for sharing and still feeling satisfied.
They are known for their Bolognese pasta for a reason. It is made with over a dozen ingredients and takes overnight to prepare. You can taste the care and depth in every bite. Rich, comforting, and perfectly balanced.
We also ordered the Linguini del Mare, which was cooked to perfection. The sauce was phenomenal, and they brought out fresh bread on the side so you could dip straight into it. Do not skip that.
Finish with dessert. You have to try their gelatos and fresh baked cookies.
Authentic homemade pasta, an excellent wine selection, great cocktails, incredible service, and an atmosphere that works just as well for date night as it does for a family dinner. Highly recommend. It is absolutely worth it.

Great location just steps away from the beach and main st. The place is nice both inside and outside, with outdoor dining covered by big umbrellas and a nice fountain. Good knowledgeable server. We did the lunch special which included a full portion cesar salad and a choice betwen pasta dishes or sandwiches. Very nice selection for lunch. They serve salads, apetizers, pizza , pasta and sandwiches. We had three different kund if pasta. Spaghetti carbonara, rigatoni bolognese and lunguini seafood. All three large portions and very well prepared. Fir apetizer ee did try the Octopus with mushroom very good as well.

This was our first time and there were hits and misses for the experience.
We got a reservation, showed up on time and seated quickly but didn’t get a server like 10′ or so later. The service throughout the dinner was slow eventhough the server tried her best. We waited for at least 30′ after the salad … so we ended up to dine for 2.5 hrs instead 1.5 hrs the most… we didn’t make any fuss but the management automatically accommodateed us with a veggie side dish and a small dip. That was very nice of them.
1. Beef capaccio: 4/5 – fresh and high-quality quality beef slices. However, it could use tiny bit acidity and white pepper…?
2. Chopped salad: 2.5/5 – was very fresh but bland in taste and flavors. I felt like eating raw greens. It needed some acidity, salt, and some flavors.
3. Salmon: 4/5 – our friend had it, it looked pretty appetizing.
4. Spaghetti Promodoro: 3.5/5 – the meatballs were delicious, tender, tasty, and got so much meaty flavor. The sauce was good, well balanced with brightness of tomato. However, the fresh spaghetti was very al dente, chewy.
5. Cioppino: 3/5 – it was good but not best. Good taste but not so rich in flavors. I did ask the server to add a fresh pasta which the chef did. However, when I saw the charge in the bill, it was quite a sticker shock, $12. So $12 for a 4-5 oz fresh pasta? Compared to their $15 PIZZA Margherita or $18 Bianca? What am I missing here?
6. Pistachio gelato: 5/5 – as good as you can get at some well known gelateria in Italy. It was so creamy, so robust with pistachio flavor, not super sweet. I am a sucker for pistachio gelato so this is easily the best pistachio in OC.

With a reservation, we were seated relatively quickly in the main dining hall. Their walls were well decorated, giving a nice ambiance, but not anything transporting you to Italy. The main hall did feel a little cramped, especially with the large tables in the center.
The appetizer bread was really good, providing an assortment of bread sticks, ciabatta, and foccacia, accompagnied with dipping olive oil and spices. We ordered the carbonara, which was well put together with caramelized chives as a nice twist. We also ordered the pesto, which tasted a little bland; the pesto flavor wasn’t as prevalent, and there wasn’t anything else interesting. Overall, I don’t think the pasta was necessarily worth the $20, but it was still a nice dinner and location.
The staff was very attentive, always serving water when a glass was empty and refilling the bottle when empty. They also gifted us a vanilla gelato, which was nice.

Piatti was a truly great experience. I received incredible service the whole time. When I entered the restaurant I was greeted by the host Arman. He asked me about how I was doing and made sure my family felt welcome. He then brought us out to the patio and made sure we knew where the heaters offered to adjust the temperature and wished us a great dinner. We were then waited by Bianca who cared how we felt, and overall gave great service and food. The food was just excellent as well. Would highly recommend.

Wow, this place is amazing! The atmosphere is incredibly welcoming with beautiful decor. Now, for the food…. So good! Although it isn’t on the menu the chef made me caprese salad. It was delicious and the pasta dish I had was like nothing I have had before. I will be getting it again the next time I come. All in all this is was a great experience! Maddie was great and the manager Donny, was super friendly and kind. We will be back…

The Italian food was some of the best I’ve ever eaten, and the rigatoni was cooked to perfection. The homage noodles were amazing and the sauce and meat melted in your mouth. The bread to start was superb! The service was impeccable by moving around tables and chairs for us (party of 7) to sit. We have tons of things we needed service for and it was all great. Also the atmosphere was amazing.

Nice atmosphere, BouBou our server was outstanding. The eggplant Parmesan, pizza and the yummy bread was delicious. The bolognese sauce was great but of used more meat (personal preference). We will definitely go again. Kudos to the chef and staff. Also the outdoor seating area was very inviting .

I really enjoyed the ambiance here—it’s perfect for a date night or a girls’ night out. They have a great mix of indoor and outdoor seating, but I highly recommend making a reservation ahead of time to make sure you’re covered.
The Italian menu felt authentic, with several dish combinations you don’t typically see. If you’re going with a group, the charcuterie board is a must for the table. While it is on the expensive side, the price felt appropriate for the upscale vibe and quality. Just a heads-up on the logistics: parking in this part of Laguna is tough, so plan to arrive early to find a spot.
