    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.

    This was our first time here, and we will be back. The cocktails were wonderful and the food was excellent. We were two couples and we had the Brazilian sampler, a flatbread, and a quesadilla and they were perfect for sharing. Plus it left room for dessert which was delicious!
