" A beautiful Italian escape in the heart of the city! I was impressed by the exceptional flavors of the food right from the appetizer to the main course. Everything tasted authentic, especially the meatballs which boasted a wonderful blend of spices. Service was attentive, and we were regularly checked on, which added to our enjoyment. This place is definitely worth a visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" Visiting Piazza Piccola Italia was a delightful experience. The ambiance felt very cozy and intimate, perfect for date night! I had the burata as an appetizer, and it was beautifully presented with fresh ingredients. The wait staff were friendly and kept the drinks flowing; however, there was a minor delay for the main dishes, which I didn’t mind. Savoring the homemade pasta was well worth the wait! " (*Curated Review*)

" Piazza Piccola Italia is magical! The atmosphere is like stepping into a quaint Italian piazza, complete with fairy lights and lovely outdoor seating. The food was sublime; we shared several antipasti dishes, including arancini and bruschetta topped with fresh tomatoes and basil. While there is a wait for food, I think it’s well worth it, given the quality. The dessert options are not to be missed either - I highly recommend the tiramisu! Definitely coming back soon, this is a must-visit place for anyone who appreciates authentic Italian cuisine! " (*Curated Review*)

" This Italian spot has been my go-to for years, and I am always impressed by the variety of dishes on the menu. The lasagna here is out of this world, layered with rich meat sauce and perfectly melted cheese. Although sometimes the service can be hit or miss, the friendly staff usually makes up for it. Also, the portions are generous for the price. All in all, I highly recommend coming here if you want an authentic taste of Italy right in the heart of San Jose. " (*Curated Review*)

" The experience at Piazza Piccola Italia was largely delightful. We ordered a variety of antipasti as a starter, including their famed calamari that was simply perfect. The main course pizza was decent, but perhaps not as authentic as I had hoped for an Italian restaurant. Overall, the ambiance is lovely, ideal for a date night, but my food experience was a bit mixed. I think the authenticity could be a bit more pronounced in their mains. " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently attended a small gathering at Piazza Piccola Italia and was taken by how charming the staff are. They catered an assortment of dishes and we enjoyed every single one. From light antipasti to hearty mains, everything tasted fresh and full of flavor! The dessert was equally impressive! Perfect place for events if you appreciate a personal touch. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it! " (*Curated Review*)

" Delicious food, but be prepared for a wait! We waited quite a long time for our food, though the staff were apologetic and kept us updated. The penne arrabbiata was exceptional and really hit the spot. Overall, the atmosphere is charming, but I recommend making a reservation to avoid the wait! " (*Curated Review*)
