Piazza Italia, located in Portland, Oregon, has been serving authentic Italian cuisine to residents since 2000. Founded by Italian immigrant Gino Schettini and Portland native Kevin Gorretta, the restaurant offers a taste of Italy in the heart of the Pearl District. The cozy establishment is a labor of love, reflecting the owners' passion for quality food, soccer, music, and creating a welcoming atmosphere.

With a rich history of importing Italian sculptures and hosting memorable events, Piazza Italia has become a beloved spot where the Italian language fills the air, soccer matches play on TV screens, and guests can enjoy a vibrant setting. Following Gino's passing in 2007, his family has continued his legacy, ensuring that the restaurant remains a place where patrons can experience the essence of Italian culture and cuisine. Visitors are invited to immerse themselves in the warm and lively ambiance that defines Piazza Italia.
