" A hidden gem indeed! I stumbled upon Piccolo Bistro on a rainy day, but the warmth of the staff and the delicious food made it brighter. The fresh pasta is made in-house, and it shows! I enjoyed the ravioli, while my partner had the steak, which melted in his mouth. We left happy and satisfied. They’ve gained a lifelong customer! " (*Curated Review*)

" I tried Piccolo Bistro after hearing so many rave reviews, but I left feeling a bit let down. The pasta was okay but lacked the necessary seasoning. My dinner companion ordered the special, which was great, but his portion was very generous whereas mine felt too small for the price I paid. The ambiance is nice, but I'm not sure if it's worth a repeat visit considering the inconsistency. " (*Curated Review*)

" When I first walked into Piccolo Bistro, I was struck by its cozy ambiance. The décor was charming, and the lighting set the perfect mood for an evening meal. But oh, the food! Each dish we ordered was beautifully presented and tasted as amazing as it looked. The seafood special of the night was phenomenal! Service was prompt and polite, making this a night to remember! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had an incredible experience at Piccolo Bistro last night! I took my family here for dinner, and they were impressed too! The prosciutto app was divine, and main dishes like the osso buco melted in our mouths. Not to mention, the outdoor seating is absolutely a must during warm months! My kids appreciated the welcoming atmosphere. We’ll be back soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I used to love this place, but recently, it seems like the quality has dropped. The lasagna was very bland, and the service felt rushed even though the restaurant was not busy. I hope they can return to the quality that made them famous in the first place. " (*Curated Review*)

" Our experience was bittersweet. The food had a certain comfort that reminded me of home, but at times, the service felt neglectful. Regardless, I think it was just an off night. I appreciated the genuine intentions of the owner, and I’m willing to give it another shot. " (*Curated Review*)

" While our waiter was friendly, my meal was underwhelming. I had the shellfish special—tasted great, but it felt so skimpy in portion that it was hard to recommend based solely on that. The ambiance is cute, but food should be the main attraction, right? " (*Curated Review*)
