Piccola Cucina never disappoints. Personnel is kind and attentive, the food is outstanding and the noise is decent. My go-to place when I crave Italian food! Burrata is always fresh and there are so many pastas that you can go several times in a row without eating the same thing. Alfio is the sweetest and kindest host, but everyone is really great.

Dinner was wonderful, mostly because our waitstaff Elideth was able to make the perfect wine and food recommendations. Our table was in the middle of what is a small space, so it felt crowded. But the delicious meal and wonderful service made up for that.

If you want authentic Italian food, go to Tarominas! The food is the best. Great wait staff and the drinks are professionally made. Always a great time and highly recommend Tarominas for a date night, family night, or for a girls night out. Great time!
