Piccolo
will make you
want to learn
Italian and ride
a Vespa. This
tiny gem just
off the beaten
path in Venice
Beach (with only
twelve tables)
will happily
surprise you
with its
excellent food,
service, wine
and atmosphere.
The staff greets
you with a warm
Italian welcome,
much like a
dining
experience in a
small Italian
village; you’ll
find that the
people here are
sincerely
interested in
your hunger,
your well-being
and your life in
general. At
Piccolo they
really make sure
you’re taken
care of, from
the owner to the
Sommelier, it is
every person’s
mission to
guarantee that
your night is
nothing but
extraordinary.
All pastas are
house-made,
including squid
ink garganelli
and mini ravioli
richly stuffed
with beef and
kale. Duck
prosciutto is
also homemade
and equally
swoon-inducing.
No matter what
dish you order,
be it the
spinach and
ricotta “naked
ravioli” or the
seared scallops
over parmesan
fondue, every
bite is an
explosion in
your mouth.
Piccolo invites
foodies, Venice
locals, and all
those
celebrating to
step into the
warmth that is
Piccolo. If you
can’t afford the
plane ticket to
Italy, a visit
here just might
be the short
vacation you
need! For a
superior dining
experience in a
very romantic
spot, Piccolo
cannot be beat.
This cozy
restaurant is
perfect for a
date and even
more, an
intimate
conversation;
truly, this
place is a must,
but keep in
mind, as their
website states,
“make your
reservation
ahead of time,
as the place is…
piccolo.” For
those who have
not yet learned
Italian – that
means small.
