Piccola Cucina Osteria it's our gem in the heart of SoHo. The Chef and owner Philip Guardione opened in January 2013 to bring in the city the real taste of Sicily.
Friendly service with a buzzy atmosphere, all in a typical Italian restaurant setting. It is matched by home cooking like you would expect to eat in Italy, which is one of the keys to the success of the restaurant. Fully renovated in 2021 the location looks warm and cozy.

Our other two Piccola Cucina locations in Manhattan are:
Piccola Cucina Estiatorio ( 75 Thompson street )
Piccola Cucina Uptown ( 106 E 60th Street )

Piccola Cucina Osteria accepts online requests for parties smaller than 6 guests only.
If you are looking for a bigger party or special event, please contact us info@piccolacucinagroup.com
Thank you

    Be prepared to be transported right into Sicily! This quaint restaurant in SoHo exceed all expectations. I will say- the resturant is TINY. But it makes the experience intimate and unique. My mom and I had each tried a different wine recommended by the waiter, both amazing. We started with the Arancino Catanese (rice balls with meat rage sauce & mozzarella) and they were actually unreal. We then shared the Cacio E Pepe and the Gnocci with clams (it was the special for the night so not on the menu but I’m sure the Gnocchi on the menu is amazing as well.) I would skip on the Cacio E Pepe and order as much Gnocchi as possible because it was SO freaking amazing. Don’t get me wrong, the Cacio E Pepe was still good but it just didn’t compare to the Gnocchi. For dessert we had the Cannolis and chamomile tea. If I lived in New York I would visit over and over again! When I return this will be my first stop❤️

    Excellent lunch specials and tasty pasta. Intimate quaint setting as expected. Server was very attentive and accommodating to our requests. Can almost miss this place as we walked past the front entrance, highly recommend this spot and will come back again!

    Last night’s experience was hands down the best food we have ever had. Every single dish was absolutely flawless, and the chefs truly outdid themselves. There wasn’t a single thing we didn’t enjoy—it was perfection from start to finish. The service was equally incredible; attentive, friendly, and made us feel so welcome. The atmosphere was intimate and radiated authentic Italian vibes, creating the perfect setting for an unforgettable evening. We haven’t even had food this good in Italy! The quality, taste, and overall experience far exceeded our expectations, especially for such a great price. We loved it so much that we’ll be purchasing a gift card for our family so they can experience it too. This place is a true gem, and we can’t wait to return. Bravo to the team!

    Tiny space crammed with tables. Some food good but Piccolo Cucina Casa in Boerum Hill Bklyn, (one of my favorite restaurants) has better food. The artichoke salad was undistinguished (in Bklyn excellent), the prosciutto platter was mediocre. Chicken Milanese was excellent as in Bklyn. Bklyn is much more spacious and better ambiance, better food.

    This place transports you to an authentic Italian trattoria. Food was excellent but the space is small.
