The food was fine I guess but the service was so weird - my friend and I ordered 2 pastas and a ribeye steak and they acted like we had 6 heads and asked us multiple times if we actually ordered that and then it took an additional 45 mins - 1 hour between pasta and steak courses. It was our travel day and it was the only food we had that day, plus we wanted some to take home so we ordered more than usual. They sincerely seemed like they didn’t want our money by the 3rd time they asked if we wanted the steak. I get that we’re women but we can eat haha. Overall, so strange!

Fantastic authentic Italian / Sicilian cuisine. As good as some of my favorite places in Catania. A bit “tight” in space but the staff was attentive and friendly. One of my new go to places in NYC.

Not what it used to be !! Filled with very loud young people. Tables extremely closed, you can hardly move and no conversation possible.

A true New York City staple, Piccola Cucina (across all locations) is simply the best! I’m especially fond of the Estiatorio location, as I’m a huge fan of fish. I’ve been at least 15 times, and each visit is nothing short of amazing. The service, food, and ambiance are always top-notch. One of my absolute favorites is the Fusilloni di Gragnano con scampi, burrata, pomodorini e rucola. During our Valentine’s Day visit, we had the special of the day—blueberry risotto—and it was amazing. Pablo, our waiter, was so friendly and attentive. Highly recommend!
