    Great spot. Portions were not huge for the price but the food was very good and the bread basket made up for the lack of the size in the portions. Amazing ambience too very good for a date night.

    French waiter…did us a favor to take our order. Love Piccolo, but that was the worst service I’ve had outside of highland park hipsters in a long while time.

    First time there loved right from the beginning a warm sincere welcome . We chose to seat in garden area which was quite lovely . The entire wait team was attentive and friendly. The food was beautifully plated and portion taste excellent. We are looking forward to our next dining experience there.
