    The food was great, I got the Italia with Ragu sauce! The service was great too, they were very attentive and were always ready to assist. the price for what I got was good. it’s a small restaurant, so I definitely recommend making a reservation, but it’s super cute and not too loud.

    Second time visiting Piccola Cucina - Spring Street; went back after several years as our first experience was positive. Good all around. I liked the idea of the ‘deconstructed’ tiramisu being prepared at the table but it didn’t quite hit the mark… the Savoiardi biscuits were too crunchy and there was a distinct lack of liqueur. Other than that, the food was good and ambience cheerful without being too noisy or overbearing (it is a very small space).

    Came here for my boyfriend’s birthday with his parents. From start to finish, our experience was amazing- which is happening less and less in NYC. The staff was so kind and friendly and knowledgeable with the menu. The atmosphere was beautiful! Quiet, cozy, not overwhelming and so clean. We started with the focaccia which was delicious and a couple of other appetizers. We all enjoyed our dishes and it was the perfect portion. Their cocktails are great too! Especially the classic spritz. The staff was so attentive and made my boyfriend’s day feel extra special. Thank you, Palma! Can’t wait to return.
