Piccolo Forno

A cosy restaurant serving genuinely delicious Italian fare. The meal began with complimentary bread and olive oil. The burrata arrived like a cloud - creamy, soft, and beautifully balanced with briny olives and sweet cherry tomatoes. The lobster stuffing of ravioli di aragosta was perfectly minced, and luxurious. The spaghetti alla carbonara was silky, and lifted by generous chunks of guanciale. We ended with an affogato that delivered the perfect finale - bold, sweet and beautifully comforting. The pastas did take a while to reach our table, but knowing everything was freshly prepared made the wait feel entirely worth it. The staff were warm, cheerful, and genuinely welcoming throughout our meal. This is one spot I’ll happily return to, no hesitation.

This place was fantastic. When there are so many solid options for Italian in this area, piccolo doesn’t disappoint. My wife has a pine nut allergy and they were confident in making sure she didn’t get cross contamination. We got pepperoni pizza, dough is amazing. Pizza sauce is top notch. Lasagna was so good. The bolognese was what dreams are made of. Food was excellent service equally matched. Will totally visit again.

Great italian restaurant with great service! Place was busy so we sat outside and got some Pinse and paste. both really tasty and we enjoyed it! 10/10 would recommend

Not really impressed. I’d rather have bread and olive oil with just a crack of pepper instead of vinegar. The pizza was pretty basic and drizzled with too much olive oil, though the crust had a nice crisp. The pesto pasta was very plain, nothing special—same with the cheese ravioli. At least the coffee was very good. Prices weren’t too bad for the area.

Underwhelming flavors, not a fan. Service: 10/10 fast and super polite and friendly Food: taste wasn’t it, entry bread w vinegar had no flavor. The pastas all lacked flavor except the gnocchi one. Tiramisu was nice and fresh we liked it a lot. Pizzas weren’t a favorite. Overall: wouldn’t come here again, do to the food taste. Otherwise service is so nice.

Everything was perfect: good wine, good food and great service. We loved their linguine vongole with the pasta cooked to the right al dente texture and the clams were fresh. We also enjoyed amazing service by their passionate staff. Just be prepared for a queue even on a weekday night.

Crazy good food! I had the zuppe pesce. My brother in law had lasagne. My sister had spaghetti and meatballs. We are from an Italian neighborhood in NYC. The food was off the hook good. My brother in law said the lasagna was the best he ever had!

The restaurant was very chaotic and so many people were speaking Italian, it was a lot of fun. Staff is very friendly. Wine portions are very generous. Got the ragu and mushroom ravioli. Both were a bit heavy, the portion generous and tasted good.
