Il Piccolino

Such a quaint restaurant, met the owner Silvio. Nice guy, painter who gave us a free delicious mousse!

Il Piccolino is a MUST EAT when visiting Los Angeles or when you have a low key business meeting. I personally prefer eating lunch here. The location is fantastically convenient, and OMG everything I have ordered over the years has been cooked to perfection. I cannot even think of a personal favorite plate because everything I have tried is amazing ..... Table service is exceptional.

Amazing place. An experiece coming here. Small and intimate. Great wine menu with some moderately priced Borellos. Had the short rib pasta. Very rich, very good. Asparagus soup was great. Shared the Mousse for dessert. Also wonderful. Great place to eat.

Someone recommended this place and we though to try it.
Main course was well done nothing amazing, but the big disappointment was with the mozzarella...suppose to be fresh but it was quitte dry inside. Manager insisted that was a good mozzarella but it is one of the worst ones I have tried. He was insisting that was good mozzarella but when I offered to bring him some fresh mozzarella so he can see the difference he refused! They were polite enough to not charge us for it. Service was good otherwise. For the prices they are charging I would expect better quality.

Wow! I’m a musician and I tour all over the world. I’ve been to Italy many times- all 20 regions. Maybe you have read some of my other reviews in which case you know that I am a foodie and very particular about what I eat and where I eat and the ingredients that I consume. I’m also an excellent cook. Well this place rocks in all categories. We were a party of four and we ordered lots and lots of stuff and it was all superb. If you can get Christie as your waitress you will have struck it rich. She is the greatest. Granted, this place ain’t cheap but for the quality of food and the service it’s a great deal.
