Reviews of Piccolo Ristorante Italiano

My favourite place to get Pizza. Always tastes the best. The Anchovies are really nice.

This is a great little local restaurant, the food is always excellent and the service is friendly. Byo is truly a bonus these days being able to take a bottle of two of your favourites, and they have a few to choose from if you run out (and beers) Can recommend to anyone that likes good Italian food.

The food is beautiful, and the service is friendly and warm. The spicy pasta dish really set it off on a winter's night, and the pizza had an amazing crust with the right balance of texture and crispness. The tiramisu was spot on, rich yet not overly so and so moreish.🤤 Will be back!

Immaculate vibes and wonderful food, staff were lovely, would definitely recommend. However it's not an accessable building unfortunately, and with all the people in there it was very loud so not very sensory friendly. Made conversation a little tricky at times but in some ways that added to the vibesss

We thought we'd try out Piccolo aa it is one of the closest restaurants to our place in Westmorland. Well, we were amazed at the quality and tastiness of the dishes, the rustic, quaint atmosphere and the reasonable prices. My fettuccine gorgonzola combined two of my favourite things - blue cheese and mushrooms - and was cooked to perfection. There was just the right amount of blue cheese sauce i.e. unlike typical kiwi-style pasta, it wasn't smothered in it. And heaps of mushrooms! My partner also really enjoyed his venison ragu special. The crispy garlic pizza bread to start was delicious, with a doughy kind of base that you could let your teeth sink to. And desserts - well, the tiramisu was to die for: light, fluffy and melt in the mouth. We had a bottle of Nero d'Avola from Sicily, reasonably priced at $42. You can also ask to see a selection of Chianti. Piccolo doesn't try to be anything it's not; it knows what it's about and it does it very well. It has only 8 or so tables, so remember to book. It also does takeaways (pick up only). We'll be regulars I think 😀

Delicious quality food, friendly welcome people/service....a small city’s gem...defently we coming back

Great little Italian restaurant, perfect for mid week dining, all tables busy so clearly a local favourite. Definitely recommend the tiramisu, lovely way to end the night. Is also BYO

We had lunch and it was amazing Great service from all the staff members

Excellent service to a large birthday group. Great food.

If you are after a lovely, quieter place to have a great dinner, this is the place to go. It's a smaller restaurant with great Italian food. The staff is lovely and you don't have to wait long for your dinner to be served. I highly recommend you to try there garlic bread. Yum. Prices are reasonable and parking is fine.

Since my earlier review we have since dined here several times and found Colin and his staff very courteous and obliging. The food second to none and all up worthy of a five star rating.

One of our favourite restaurants. Great Italian food served by friendly staff in a pleasant and relaxing space. Not expensive but always enjoyable.

Great food, friendly staff reasonably priced, it's a small restaurant we were a group of 10 all meals came out together Havdbedn many times great food,great staff

Simple Italian done really well. Fresh, chewy pizza dough. Tasty pasta. Drinkable Chianti. Small. Authentic feel. Very happy, will be back!

Beautifully cooked venison on the menu at the moment. Thanks.

Very flavorsome pasta and pizza. Very filling and garlic bread is a unique experience.

This Ristorante is as good as the Italian food you would have in a typical Italian village.

Brilliant food and surroundings. Great service good menus and pricing. Limited wine list but it is by. Not ostentatious. Very simple surroundings and decor, fits perfectly with a suburban eatery. Pizzas and pasta. Both amazing choices.

Great pizza and Tiramisu to die for. The outside dining area was private and was the perfect place to dine on a summers night.

Very good and tasty food though the portion size of the main was smaller than expected

What a great Italian Restaurant, amazed at the taste of the food, had an entree smoked chicken with mushroom and cream was divine, then shared a pizza which had a thin crispy base, yummy. I shared a tiramisu wow, the food was just so good, oh yea we had a garlic pizza bread to start, nice. Love this place.

Great atmosphere. Meals priced $20-$30. Fettuccine pasta with creamy mushroom sauce and ham was delicious. The chef special venison ragu was a dense stringy venison stew on fettuccine which wasn't to my taste. Service was reasonable and cleanliness of cutlery needs some attention. We would return again but I think pass on the ragu.

Friendly local restaurant. Good service. BYO. Pizza and pasta dishes with enough variety. I've had some good experiences from the specials board.

Great food. Fabulous ambience. This would be most definitely my 'go to' local if I lived in ChCh. Pizzas and pasta great,lots of taste. Tiramisu fantastic. Well done to a small and welcoming neighbourhood restaurant.

Piccolo is wee gem! A small neighborhood restaurant where the food is great and so is the ambience. Great place for an intimate dinner for two or with a group of friends. We locals are really pleased it's on our doorstep!

Great meal. Superb teramasu

Delicious, cosy and nice service - and all at a good price! Loved my dinner there on Saturday, thank you very much - nice to have a good decent local restaurant like this. We will be back.

Nice little place. Food was good. Atmosphere was nice to. If you really want to eat there pays to book not many tables

A great little local. Food was excellent and got fabulous service when asking about the red wines on offer. Very passionate chef/owner (?). We will return.

Super yummy food with great service. The staff were really friendly and amiable. Relaxing vibe. Will definitely come back!

Really great authentic experience!

Great Italian food, and they managed really well with a big group of 20 of us 😊 We had a lovely night!

Love this place ❤ - gorgonzola fettuccine is the BEST - my all-time favorite restaurant especially after a busy day working - not inundated with people asking how your meal is, because they know it's great - lovely intimate space and contact with the people responsible for the place. Thanks all of you at Piccolo - great end to a busy weekend❤❤❤

Great quality food and service! I have been a couple of times now and will keep coming back

Have been here twice - both times food and service were excellent (cannelloni and lasagne respectively). Suggest checking out the tiramisu as well.

Thought the food was wonderful. Service was efficient and friendly. Discussed wine etc with authority.

I really like this intimate and cozy Italian restaurant. Food is very authentic Italian style, with delicious and tasty olive oil felt like in Italy.

Reliable, unpretentious friendly feel. Food predictable but nice

Absolutely amazing. Loved everything. Highly recommend the Mushroom Ravioli. Finish with a Drambui Affogato. Service is excellent as well.

Lovely intimate casual wee neighbourhood restaurant with good food and great Tiramisu
