Another great meal at Piccolo. This is a terrific restaurant for the simple reason the food is top notch day-in and day-out. Same for service. Always a team effort which makes everything smooth. Highly recommend a meal here.....

We were invited here with friends and never tried it before. The service was good and quick , he even noticed our drinks weren’t how we asked when he went to serve them, so he was very attentive. All of us ordered different dinners and sides. The fillet of sole roberto was quite flavorful , the duck was very good, and the stuffed veal was delicious as well. My chicken parmigiana was ok , unfortunately I felt it lacked flavor, specifically the sauce, other than that all the food was quite good. Overall we were happy with the experience.

We went there for Easter. The food was fabulous and the service was top notch. Very nice craft cocktails and great wine selection. All in all a great experience.

First time diner this past Saturday. Gorgeous restaurant that really surprises after pulling up to its strip-mall entrance. Clear neighborhood favorite with a Cheers-like everyone knowing everyone's name. We were so excited, and then we weren't. We had a big group, 10 people, so they put us in the tent. No big deal, the space was comfortable and well decorated, so a fine option. After sitting at 8pm, we ordered apps and mains straight away thinking they were busy. Apps came after a reasonable wait. But at 10pm I had to go inside to complain to the host that we were still waiting on the entrees. The table next to us had same issue, said they'd driven nearly an hour to celebrate a birthday but waited forever for food. The food was really good I will not deny. In fact the pork chop toomey is spectacular. But even for a Saturday the wait was unreasonable and after bringing up my dissatisfaction we weren't even offered a cannoli. Maybe it was because they stuck us in the tent. Maybe because we were not regulars. Maybe the dog ate someone's homework. But whatever the reason 'Piccolo' for this reviewer lived up to its namesake - small, and not worth the trip.

I know great Italian! Service with a smile- Great Saturday night spot- Quaint & cozy! I had the Shrimp Arregenate & Linguine Marinara along with plenty of appetizers. Definitely the best Italian restaurant in the Huntington area!

Great evening again. Mark makes the best Goose Martinis. Black Sea Bass special was excellent. And those Cigaros are the best! Jason and the team are always very accommodating. Thanks to all.

Piccolo's offers high energy fine dining experience. Staff is truly like family. We enjoyed upscale espresso martinis and delectable cuisine. Every entree was of highest quality. We truly enjoyed a memorable night with our friends celebrating Mikey's birthday. Make your reservations, you will never be disappointed.

It's one of our favorite restaurants. Everyone is friendly and professional and welcoming. The selection of food, wine and cocktails is exceptional The ever changing specials are also welcome. Jason and George as the main protagonists set the stage for an extremely enjoyable evening of dining. The environment is warm and comfortable providing you with your own private space. Indoor dining along with outdoor heated dining. We love it

Overall outstanding evening. Food was fantastic from apps thru dinner, calamari and eggplant meatballs were excellent, dnners were veal chop valdostano and the paccheri with filet mignon tips both were outstanding. Drinks were excellent. Service was impeccable. Highly recommend dining there.
Food was not worth the $85 prix fixe, busy on valentines day, but still we ordered something in the beginning, and after bringing out the first 2 meals, they informed us that a menu item that we ordered was out an hour after we ordered it. Service was not great and the food was not worth what we paid.

To be fair, it was Valentines Day but of they can't handle the volume then they shouldn't book as many people. The burrata was very bland. The "crispy" oysters were actually deep fried. The Ceasar Salad tasted like it was about to turn bad. The skirt steak marinade didn't taste that great to me. Like I said, probably a bad night to judge them on... Not sure how to recommend to a friend...

We made our reservation 1 week prior. I mentioned it was a birthday celebration/ The dining room and bar area had people packed in like cattle ! We were offered a small table at the bar entrance or outside ( in the tent). We chose outside. There was absolutely no ambiance!! There were a few other people dining there as well ,but it felt like everyone was far apart as though Covid was still a priority! When given 2 poor options for a table , we chose the best option. This restaurant did not set aside a table for a birthday celebration and basically gave our reservation little consideration. We will not be returning or recommending.

During our most recent visit, our experience did not meet the high standards we've come to expect from this restaurant. While the ambiance remains inviting with its beautiful setting and vibrant atmosphere, our culinary journey began on a disappointing note. The tuna tartare appetizer, shared with my wife, had an overpoweringly fishy taste that made it inedible for us. Upon raising our concerns, the waiter's suggestion to ‘test' the dish for verification was unexpected. We opted for the burrata instead, which was satisfactory. However, the remainder of our meal was average. Furthermore, it was surprising to find the replacement dish—burrata, which was more expensive—added to our bill in place of the tuna. The evening concluded with us feeling hurried from our table. It's clear that this establishment could benefit from enhanced quality control.
