    Food was very bland; we ordered the truffle pasta and chilli/garlic prawn pasta. Service was rushed; we started with cocktails before our mains and wine but we had barely settled in/drank our cocktails and both were brought to the table. Desserts were more enjoyable - we had the chocolate fondant and passion fruit panna cotta. Atmosphere is busy and tables are very close together. Menu looks great at a glance but too many choices for each to be perfected. Overall, not a great experience for my partner and I, and it is unlikely we will return.

    Dear Danielle, Thank you for your honest feedback. We are sorry to hear that you were disappointed with your Valentine's Day meal. We are taking your comments regarding the food quality, rushed service, and table spacing seriously. We are working to improve these areas and appreciate your feedback. Kind Regards Piccolino Chichester

    Rather noisy environment especially sat next to the kitchen. Overpriced wine and food a bit too expensive for what it was.

    Nice leisurely Sunday lunch with my mother. Both had the roast lamb which was good but a little tough but that didn’t spoil the overall experience.

    I booked for my boyfriend and my mother in law to celebrate his birthday here. We had a lovely time, food is fresh and full of flavour. Amazing cocktails, loved sitting at the bar for a martini also. Staff were so polite and fun! Can’t recommend this place enough. Brilliant authentic Italian menu & a beautiful restaurant inside. Can’t wait to visit again!
