    Piccolo is a family favorite. It's not pretentious, the service is great and the food is always excellent (especially the gnocchi - it's the best we've ever had!).

    Regular customers of Piccolo Trattoria. Food is fresh, tasty, and portions are large. Service is very good, and better than expected for a casual restaurant. Espresso is hot and fresh.

    We went with our family for New Year’s Eve dinner. It was a pleasant experience. They even had an accordion player, which made it even more pleasant experience

    I realize it was Christmas Eve and the restaurant was busy, but the food courses could have been spread out. Half of our party ordered the 7 fishes and the other half ordered entrees off the menu. The 7 fishes courses were served too quickly. The next course came out before the previous one was eaten. Our waiter didn’t write down our dessert orders and came back 3 times to ask us what we ordered. It was extremely cold at our table because everytime someone opened the door to come into the restaurant, the cold air blew on our table.

    We've been to this restaurant many times and each time it was excellent. The food is fresh and hot. Food seemed to come right out of the oven. Service was great; we'll be back.

    Inventive burrata and pear salad, a perfect accompaniment for the delicious fresh pasta, made in-house. Will go back again and again!
