    This was our first time at Il Piccolo Morso and it was AMAZING! Recommended by friends as a great date spot. To begin, we both ordered signature cocktails recommended by our server which were divine! We shared the Caesar Salad to start (may be the best I've ever had!!). My meal was the Spaghetti Carbonara (sooooo good!) and my boyfriend enjoyed the Baked Spicy Chorizo Rigatoni (he was raving about it!). It was so hard to choose because everything sounded delicious. We ended our meal by sharing the Limoncello Mascarpone which was recommended by our server, and it also did not disappoint (soooo good!) Overall cost is very reasonable for the portion sizes and quality of food (we definitely took leftovers and were extremely satisfied). We cannot wait to come back again - will definitely be back to try all of the delicious dishes on the menu. Thanks for the AWESOME service/hospitality!
