edit(Compose a detailed peer review here, considering each of the key aspects listed above if it is relevant. Consider the guiding questions, and check out the examples of what feedback looks like.)
Lead
This article initially has nothing written at all and is writing about Piatti the restaurant from scratch. The Lead includes an introductory sentence that is concise and clear. Ther are also additional major sections that was added and I thought to be beneficial for the overall purpose of the article! I think the introductory could include a sentence or two regarding the founding and specifically what food they are most known for. Overall, the lead is concise and clear.
Content
Yes, the content added is relevant to the topic. The content is up-to-date. I like the three main sections you added, it is very clear and straight-forward. The article does include topics about underrepresented topics when it explains about creating an inclusive space.
Tone and Balance
Overall, the content is neutral. However, I think there is a sentence that seems to persuade the reader to one position. In the Menu subtopic, the sentence “... which are perfect for all ages and palate types.” could have a more neutral tone. “Piatti features a broad menu and wine list that cater to various ages and tastes.”
Sources and References
The new content is backed up by reliable secondary source of information and are current sources. Also, I like how you provided hyperlinks for the current locations Piatti is based in. It would be great to include citations after sentences where it was referenced. I think adding more references from a diverse spectrum of authors could also hugely enhance this article. Examples like news coverage articles from specifically Piatti La Jolla, since it’s the origin, could bring more important details to the article.
Organization
The added content is well-written and easy to read. I think there are some sentences that have grammatical improvements and enhanced sentence structures that could flow better. The first sentence might flow better if it was structured like this, "Piatti is a small restaurant chain located along the West Coast and in Texas, renowned for its authentic Italian cuisine and wines.” Also, it was mentioned under the Location section that the first Piatti was established in 1990, however, in the History section, it was said that Piatti was established in 1987. I think wording it differently could add more emphasis and clarity that it was first opened in 1987 and by 1990, seven more restaurants had been established.
Images and Media
There aren’t new added images. It might be nice to see more pictures, preferably the furniture or architecture that correlates with the European-theme.
Overall impressions
I overall enjoyed reading your content to this article! I was wondering if you wanted to add the word “Restaurant” for the title, since there are three different references in the initial Piatti page. “Piatti Restaurant” could seem like a clear title. There were many strengths in this article as it was written from scratch! You did a good job making clear sentences and what Piatti has to offer including many descriptive words! It could be improved by adding the citations after referencing the website.
