We've been coming to Gavi he opened his first rest as Grant out on Broadway. The food is amazing. The service at Piazza Gavi is horrible. Wd always wonder why it doesn't ever make the list of top 2 or 3 Italian restaurants and we suspect it's the lackluster service. Inattentive service, long waits for refills, never being asked if we want a second glass of wine, being asked if we want dessert so long after we have finished our meals and have been staring at our dirty plates that we just want to go home. We return for the incomparable spicy garlic shrimp and the wonderful food but wonder why.
