Piatti La Cantera

Skip the Mall Food Court

The Shops at La Cantera has plenty to eat inside the center. Five minutes away in Eilan, Piatti gives you a sit-down Italian meal with housemade pasta, wood-fired pizza, a real bar and a patio, without the wait for a table on a Saturday afternoon.

Piatti is at 17803 La Cantera Terrace, about 1.5 miles from The Shops at La Cantera and 1 mile from The Rim. Parking is free in the surrounding lot, and complimentary valet is available, so there is no circling the mall garage.
