Customer's reviews

I had an enjoyable dining experience at Piccolina Woodfire Pizza and can’t recommend it more highly! I tried their Mushroom Truffle Pasta in a Woodfire Pizza Bowl, and wow, it delivered on every level. The pasta was perfectly cooked, rich with sautéed mushrooms and laced with truffle oil elegant and indulgent. The genius twist: the pasta was served inside an edible woodfired pizza bowl. That pizza crust bowl added another texture dimension and made the dish feel extra special. The atmosphere was warm and inviting; you could tell the chef and team cared about the craft. Friendly service, attention to detail and a relaxed vibe made this place perfect for a treat or a special outing. ~ Amilliah
If you are looking for a true, authentic Italian dining experience... Piccolino is the place to go. The owner is attentive, friendly and provided steller customer service. which is so rare these days. The homemade pasta is just like "Nonna' makes; fresh and absolutely delicious. Very generous servings of everything. We were so full from the starters and pasta that we couldn't fit in dessert. Piccolino is a hidden gem... for us, a good thing, meaning we enjoyed a quieter dining room, but a shame as this place is so good that it should been fully booked for a Sunday lunch. We will 100% be back and will be telling anyone who wil listen to go and eat at Piccolino! Side note: They get extra bonus points from me becuase they play current Italian music! ~ Amanda V
Our absolute favourite restaurant! ❤️ We’ve been coming to Piccolino for years and it never disappoints. The food is always incredible, especially the woodfired pizzas, which are honestly some of the best we’ve ever had. 🍕👌 What makes Piccolino extra special though is the beautiful, warm atmosphere and the wonderful people. Andrea, the owner, is absolutely amazing and always makes us feel so welcome and looked after every time we visit. You can genuinely see how much love and passion he puts into the restaurant and making sure his customers are happy. We absolutely love this place and couldn’t recommend it highly enough! ❤️🍕🇮🇹 ~ Rosanna F
