    A cozy neighborhood place with delicious food and excellent service. My friend and I shared tuscan kale and farro salad, morrocan spiced sunchoke soup, smoked bluefish pâté and root vegetable & black truffle gratin. Everything tasted and looked fabulous. Staff was over to change silverware and offer recommendations.

    This was our first visit to Piccolo's on a busy Saturday evening. We had a reservation and was seated promptly. Our waitress was friendly and attentive. They had a nice wine list and a nice selection of wines by the glass at reasonable prices. They had no special cocktail menu, and no mocktail choices.  The food came out quickly, and was very good. The chicken Parmesan was huge! It was very crowded in the cozy dining room with every table filled, and it was very loud. I had a hard time hearing my dinner companions from across the table.  Great food though at reasonable prices. We will choose a a less busy night if we come again.

    I went here with a friend for lunch. It was absolutely delicious and we split the sweet chili cauliflower and a small special vodka chicken meatball flatbread. Everything was very good and our waitress was excellent!
