    Lovely food, service was good. Its a bit expensive but worth the extra for the beautiful setting. We were sat right by the window which spoilt it a little as felt cramped. Would definitely go again . Cocktails ate really nice

    London-esque noisy bustle with attentive staff. Cocktail delicious and wine good. Disappointing main courses - branzino tasted good but was over cooked so did not fall away from the skin as it should with very overcooked potatoes; chicken pasta with spring veg was somewhat bland and contained very little chicken! Overall for the quality on this evening not value for money. Will probably try again another day.
    Piccolino - ChichesterResponded on 8 January 2025
    Hi Julie, Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We're pleased to hear you enjoyed the cocktails, wine, and the attentive service. However, we're sorry to learn that the main courses didn’t meet your expectations. We always aim for high-quality dishes, and we’ll be reviewing the preparation of the branzino and chicken pasta to ensure these issues are addressed. We truly appreciate your comments and hope to welcome you back soon for a better experience. Kind regards, Piccolino Chichester

    Having dined in several other Piccolinos over a number of years we found our experience here very disappointing . The room looks great , the food was good but the service completely lets it down . The staff were indifferent and seemed not to want to be there . A young waiter was outright rude to us . When I raised this with a gentleman on the desk when leaving he clearly wasn’t interested . Embarrassing as I’ve recommended it to friends already based on our experience with Piccolinos in Cheshire

    Gorgeous decor, staff extremely efficient and friendly. Only 4 stars because the Spaghetti Ragu (bolognaise) was the smallest portion I’ve ever seen!! So that was over priced sadly. Rest was lovely.

    The restaurant is lovely decorated beautifully and clean although there are a lot of tables so a little crowded ! My husbands food was perfect but sadly my lasagne was cool in the middle. The waitress was lovely and changed the meal straightaway but it did take the edge of the experience. I hate sending food back but don’t feel it’s fair to pay a fair amount for sub standard food!!
    Piccolino - ChichesterResponded on 8 January 2025
    Hi Sue, Thank you for your feedback and for sharing your experience with us. We're so glad to hear that you liked the decor and found our service to be lovely. We sincerely apologize for the issue with your lasagne and understand how disappointing it can be to receive a dish that isn't up to standard. We're grateful that our team was able to address the situation promptly, though we completely understand that it affected your experience. We appreciate your understanding and hope to have the chance to welcome you back for a better experience in the future. Kind regards, Piccolino Chichester

    Fantastic evening at Piccolino. Lovely food and beautiful restaurant. Staff were excellent and quickly helped resolve a small problem with my daughter's meal. 1 star removed from value as I felt the desserts were overpriced for what came. Overall highly recommended and I will be back.
