Somehow in my 5 years of living less than 3 blocks away, Sunday was my first visit here! Some have shared they find it overrated or pricey, I did not find either of those things to be the case for me. I very much enjoyed my experience from the warm greeting upon arrival to the beautiful space that embraces the trees they built around as part of the decor & lovely ambiance. Service was excellent & the server was quite charming & a little funny even!
When we asked about what seemed like a slightly paired down menu the server shared w/us that w/the name of the restaurant translating into 3 plates, what they do is change the menu every 3 weeks w/each category in the menu having...3 plates! I found this to be a a fun, creative way to be on brand & keep things interesting to keep people coming back!
Cocktails: I didn't take a photo of that menu, so I don't have the specifics, but mine, pictured, was vodka based w/kiwi & chartreuse & my husband's was tequila based w/hibiscus & berries. Both were refreshing & delightful. All the speciality cocktails I do recall were $210 MXN, well worth it for the quality of the ingredients & craftsmanship.
Starters: We shared the Smoked Trout Crostini which is house made bread with a generous portion of the smoked trout, avocado & roasted peppers. This was a great balance of topping to bread & was still light & refreshing. We also enjoyed the Crispy Squash Blossoms, a favorite of mine. Very lightly fried & filled to perfection & served on top of a little of the house red sauce & pesto both of which I tasted on their own & enjoyed.
Entrees: Again we shared, having from the Primi section the house made Pappardelle served with a generous portion of short rib & surprising, but beautiful touch was the horseradish, akin to how you would have it with a prime rib & it paired wonderfully w/the rest of the dish! From the Secondi section we very much enjoyed the Pork & Beef Meatballs, again served w/house made pasta, prosciutto & rosemary. My husband found the meatballs to be a little on the soft side texturally, but I found them to be beautifully tender & moist so I liked them the way they were & we both agreed the flavor of them as well as the red sauce was great.
Wine: I have been working on exploring Mexican wines more so I had the Kumeey Xecueé from Valle de Guadalupe in Baja. This was a delightful red blend that paired nicely w/both the short rib & the meatballs.
Dessert: We did skip dessert as nothing here really stood out to either of us & I had been craving a cookie ice cream sandwich from my favorite spot, Paleteria Y Neveria La MIchoacana just one block away. There I had strawberry ice cream sandwiched between two perfect chocolate chip cookies. If you haven't tried this spot, it's a small little Mom & Pop shop that I encourage you to get to!

Cute spot in PV for Italian food. I do feel like the cost for what it is is maybe a bit high? We had other Italian food while in PV that was honestly just as good, maybe better and at a lower price point.

That said the food is good, the service was attentive. The place is neat inside with a huge tree growing in the middle, but the roof is not the best. We happened to be there during a crazy rain storm and the rain was flowing in down the walls and dripping from the ceiling in many spots.

We weren't fans of the eggplant dish, but our  other food was good. Standouts were the gorgonzola tortellini, the calamari, and the pappardelle. Cocktails were good too, I appreciated that they were able to make me a delicious mocktail.

Absolutely delicious. Been there many times. Menu changes frequently. Tonight I had the prime rib— dangerous in Mexico. Not here, as it really was prime rib. This place is so good.

I think Tre Piatti had the best Italian food in PV.  I have been many times and the pasta dishes are always great.  The service is more than welcoming and everyone there is super friendly.  The cocktails are amazing and support high standard.  I just went back a couple more times and the food is consistently great. Try it!

Our waiter David was amazing.  He even suggested a wine he thought I’d like based on the food we ordered. The food was fantastic. Tre Piatti is now on our regular “must go” list every time we’re in PV!
