We had a great time celebrating my new job! The whole experience was wonderful. I highly recommend the potstickers, French onion soup, lemon parmesean chicken, and fish & chips. I really don't think you could go wrong with anything on the menu. This was our 3rd trip, and we will definitely be back. The seating by the window provides a great view of the falls.

Consistently an enjoyable experience. My husband, friends, and I come here often enough and have always had a great experience. Tonight two out of four of us ordered veggie burgers because they are the best in town. Colleen, our server, was warm and professional. That is one of the hallmarks of this restaurant; it seems they hire experienced servers who get along with each other.

Decided to grab a few friends and give this a shot for the first time in years. Forgot how fun it is. Three bottles of reasonably priced wine for three couples. Server was outstanding and really guided us thru the process without trying to upsell. Can’t wait to come again

Reservations were for a high top table. On arrival, hostess seated us at a high top table. We had a wonderful waitress, who provided great service, and we enjoyed great food. We are regular, returning customers who enjoy Piccolo’s food and service.
