"Piccola Cucina Estiatorio is a good place to have some excellent Sicilian food whenever you catch yourself taking things too seriously, and it's also the perfect spot to embarrass someone on their birthday. The staff at this cramped little Italian restaurant in Soho flicker the lights, bang pots and pans, and sing for about three consecutive minutes whenever they feel like it (and especially if it’s someone’s birthday). Mostly everyone in the dark room shares big plates of fried or grilled seafood before moving onto personal pans of pasta. At only $26, the lobster pasta is something to celebrate. It comes with spicy red sauce and huge chunks of meat, and it never seems to end." - Bryan Kim, Matt Tervooren, Neha Talreja
