Ristorante PiccoloOutstandingWe booked Ristorante Piccolo for our son's GU graduation dinner. We were not disappointed. The food was exquisite and the service fantastic. With an another son in DC we will return.5/18/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat food and atmosphereI really enjoyed my dining experience here. The food never disappoints. The service is attentive but they servers are not afraid to dish it out with each other. They don't really hide this, so it's kind of annoying to hear them raise their tempers at each other. I'd rather they be more professional during my meal, or have their talks behind closed doors. However, this was the only blemish on an otherwise delicious meal and dining experience. I'll definitely come back.5/18/2013 12:00:00 AMNeighborhood GemRistorante Piccolo, as the name implies is a small place from the outside, located a block up from the scenic canal in the most historic part of Georgetown. The main dining near the entrance has two fireplaces but the food is the attraction. Great taste and great service. Loved it. Second time there and plan to go back. Great for Saturday night dining with friends or for two or however way one enjoys romance.5/18/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat Night OutIt was my girlfriends birthday, we had a drink at the bar and Andrea was fantastic helping my gf with her drink, the host gave us a private table off to the side that was perfect for our evening, the waiter knew the menu and was very patient with us. The steak capaccio and antipasta was incredible and their homemade lobster ravioli was fantastic! I highly recommend this restaurant and it behooves you to make a reservation especially on busy evenings.5/15/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat neighborhood ItalianWonderful neighborhood restaurant just off the bustle of M Street. Not too big and not too small. While the menu may seem like a standard selection as you would find at any nice Italian restaurant, it is what is delivered to the table that makes the experience special. Every course was special, perfectly prepared and memorable. I could not find fault with anything.5/14/2013 12:00:00 AMMother's Day BrunchWe had an outstanding experience at Ristorane Piccolo. Family of four to include high school kids enjoyed the menu and tried a few things. My daughter raved about the soup, wife's salad was great and my son and I had the pepper to start with. Our entrees were wonderful and dessert finished off the event. Waiter and support staff anticipated all of our needs and didn’t distract from our family celebration. We look forward to returning5/12/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat dinner!The restaurant has a warm, quaint, inviting feel. The staff in incredibly friendly and welcoming.

We would defintely come back.4/5/2013 12:00:00 AMGreat italian food, but becauseGreat italian food, but because of the small footprint of the restaurant, the tables are very close together and we had a hard time having a conversation because we were drowned out by the conversation next to us. Perhaps on a less crowded night it would be quieter.3/29/2013 12:00:00 AMFabulous as usual.. consistentlyFabulous as usual.. consistently excellent and very reasonable.. charming spot !!!3/29/2013 12:00:00 AMMy favorite findI love this place. I have now been there 3 times and have enjoyed my experience each and every time. The food is fabulous and the waitstaff is very professional/knowledgable and helpful. On the weekends there is a strolling violinist which I find very endearing. There are so many great restaurants in DC, but this is the first one in a long time that I have wanted to return to and bring others with me. I have also recommended it to friends who have had a good experience there as well.3/29/2013 12:00:00 AMFantastic dining experience!Amazing food, my wife said it was the best ravioli she'd had. Impeccable service, attentive without hovering. Thank you Ristorante Piccolo, we'll be back!3/23/2013 12:00:00 AMService and food have beenService and food have been consistently outstanding. Would highly recommend it!!!!3/23/2013 12:00:00 AMMuch improvedWent there on a business lunch with some trepidation because the last time I was here the food was awful. But that was a year ago, so I decided to give it another try. Very much improved. They now have a fixed price $12 lunch. I ordered the minestrone soup which was excelllent and the chicken salad, which also was very good. And the bread was soft and warm. I'm glad I gave it another try.3/19/2013 12:00:00 AMWonderful food in a nice settingMy third time at Ristorante Piccolo. Food was wonderful, as always. Service started out very slowly--it took a long time before we were even given water--but picked up and ended up being satisfactory. Very friendly violinist stopped by our table, chatted a bit and played a couple of songs for us.3/9/2013 12:00:00 AM
