Absolutely delicious! The service, food, and drinks were phenomenal! Why not 5 stars, because they dont have high chairs which is a complete bummer since Truckee is a place a lot of families come to visit with their children and don't have child care to go without them. I hope they consider making this change as I would definitely come every time I'm in town if it was more comfortable for children to join.

Wonderful dinner at Pianeta. Ambiance is cozy and classy; food was top notch - pasta dishes and ragu; wine list good (try the super Tuscan!) and desert was amazing. Loved our visit and will definitely be back!

Will not disappoint, this place was amazing! Hats off to the Chef! Wife and I came for our 20th anniversary and had the best Italian food we have had around the country.

It's expensive, but worth it in my opinion. I've never had anything I didn't like here, the quality of the food cannot be beat. Sometimes it gets a bit loud and cramped inside, but not usually to the point where you can't hear those at your table easily. The wait staff are knowledgeable about everything on the menu and we've always gotten great service here.

Good food, subtle ambiance, they have had a change of management but still good. Mostly busy, Recommend for a relaxing dinner or just a dinner at the bar

10/10. Wonderful ambiance with personalized service. Table was ready when they said it would be, drinks were perfect, and food was even better. Can't wait to come back. Real professionals.

1 Star The location is great- right on the Main in Downtown Truckee 1 Star The food was good. 1 Star The service was good. 1 Star The ambiance was good, typical bistro 1 Star The service AT THE BAR was good MINUS 1 Star The service at the front of the house and the reservation process Here is my story: Reservation line 2.5 months out. They are not on Open Table or Resy. Someone said they are on Stripe or Podium not sure... RANT: You can wait for a table OR you can stand in line for one of 14 seats at the bar where you can wine and dine. (OK- can you tell that's what we did?) Was it worth it? Well, the food, service and ambiance was ok BUT there were folk trying to cut into the wait line for the wait line seat at the bar. Now, about this line, it starts to ramp up around 4:30 pm in anticipation of the 5:00 pm door opening. Remember now 14 SEATS!!!! (This couple cuts in the line and ousted another couple., Fortunately, that ousted couple are Truckee residents and chose not to make an issue as they all the days in the world to wait for seat at the bar.. How nice is that? OK Rant DONE Food was decent. There were 4 of us so we each selected one dish and we shared... so we could taste as many dishes possible. They offer a plate of warm french/sourdough bread with a neat oil and vinager carafe... Meat Balls, Duck, Ravioli, Salad, and oh, let me not forget; we had to try their pizza. All dishes delivered and served well as well as tasted great! I need to admit though, unless I was organized enough to make a reservation 2.5 months out I doubt I stand in that line again. Too much wait line drama for me. Happy Eating!

100% all of the YES! Pianeta is gold. Most times of the year you better make sure you have a reservation in advance, unless you want to try your luck for an empty bar seat. Pianeta makes their own pasta. Pianeta has great specials. Pianeta is an intimate venue. Pianeta is all if the things that you want in gourmet Itialian food. Cocktails are fabulous. And service is unrivaled.

Our service on 02/06/24 from Lyndsey was really great. She was very personable and professional and knowledgeable. The beef carpaccio and the grilled prawn pasta were my favorite dishes. The pasta was so fresh and the flavor of white wine and garlic was perfect. We'll definitely be back.

My go to for dining out since returning to Tahoe area. Incredible service, excellent ambiance and good wine list. Beef carpaccio is one of the best I've had, excellent with a glass of wine and pasta. Highly recommend!
