La Piazza Pizzeria – 162 W Main St. is an Ian’s Pizza Dupe!

Many people know this place as “Pizza by the Slice”, since it is known for having many different types of pieces available by the slice. If you have ever been to the famous Ian’s Pizza in Milwaukee, this place is similar! It is a branch of Fanatico, which I have reviewed previously. La Piazza is connected to Fanatico and there are kitchens on both sides. There is minimal seating inside so you have to go in the part where they both connect. They serve many different pizzas like mac & cheese, BBQ, chicken bacon ranch, and pasta pizza. The slices are larger than dominos or toppers and they are Italian style so they are thin and crispy. La Piazza serves more than just pizza, they have garlic knots, stuffed bread, and more! The most desirable part of this place is that they are open till 3am on the weekends, before the pandemic happened, of course. It is a popular spot after the bars because it is cheap and open late. Each slice ranges from $2.50-3.75, which is very cheap considering how big the slice is! This is a perfect place if you want a mid day snack or dinner, the pizza is so good you’ll want another piece so always order two! My friends and I go so often that we know the people who work there and they are very nice and always tell other people to come and get pizza. This place has the nicest staff in Whitewater, they have dropped off extra pizza at large outside gatherings multiple times and sometimes you will get a free slice on your birthday. Though this place is new to Whitewater, they are going to be so popular in the future, I highly recommend going and getting the pasta pizza.
