The prices on the Opentable menu were a lot lower than the actual Piccolo menu prices. The two menus need to be kept in sync for the app to be useful.

When we arrived at the restaurant, our name wasn’t on the booking list. Fortunately, there was plenty of seats so it was ok. We wanted to order the lunch course which we saw on open table menu but they said they don’t do it anymore...Music in the restaurant was too loud that we could barely hear each other. The waiter didn’t wear face covering. There is no reason to come here again!!!

My wife & I still think this is a very good place to eat in Ealing, but were a little disappointed on our second visit . The food was not so good as on our first visit here, the restaurant was quite noisy with screaming babies, the coffee was so cold we had to ask for another cup. The staff however are always friendly & helpful.

We've been a few times and have been pleased but the last visit was a little disappointing. My stater was cold and it took awhile to replace it. The lasagne was good but too much salt. The service was slower than usual and no one offered to compensate the bill for the delay and the service charge was included on the bill even though the service was slow.

Me and my girlfriend usually love this place, but unfortunately 1.5 hours in I still hadn’t received my starter and we have finished our bottle of wine, we had waited so long we couldn’t finish our mains The excuse given was that it’s busy when lots of tables turn up at once but that’s not a good enough excuse. We love the food and I was planning on making a large party reservation in a couple of months but now I will think twice

I've hesitated before writing a review because ironically, while I had a really enjoyable evening at Piccola Italia enjoying both the atmosphere & the food, sadly I had a very unpleasant night afterwards, feeling very ill. Needless to say my companion was fine so it could have been anything but when I decided to look at the Ealing Hygiene standards site, I was shocked to see that Piccola Italia had only earned 2/5 when last inspected in July. This restaurant had been recommended to me as the best Italian in Ealing & in terms of the atmosphere & the friendly all Italian staff, I'd agree. But due to my experience I'm afraid I wont be recommending or making a return visit

Unfortunately this was not a good experience at this restaurant. I booked it for a group of 8 friends to have our annual get together, having previously eaten here with my family. We only had bread and olives to start which was perfect, warm and crispy bread and good olives. The mains were not so good, I ordered the chicken wrapped in pancetta and a pumpkin sauce with mash, which was the last dish to come out after everyone else had been served. The portion was tiny, 3 bits of chicken on the plate, not wrapped in pancetta and it was hard and rubbery so I suspect it was defrosted or cooked in the microwave as they had forgotten about it. Sauce was tasteless, no seasoning at all, the mash however was good. I never send back food in a restaurant as I am not a fussy person and do not want to cause a fuss, but I could not eat what was served to me, and for £14.95 it was over priced. Other people had another chicken dish with mushrooms and a cream sauce which I opted for 2nd time around, and this was much better at least it had some flavour but that came from the sauce. The fish dishes were served with grey looking veg and only luke warm, no sauce so it was quite dry. The only really good dishes were the lasagne and pizza - I think maybe they should stick to this as they seem to do this well. The staff were helpful and friendly, although one waitress was quite surly when asked about getting some sauce for the fish. The wine was reasonable and ok for our 1 course meal. All in all not a good experience, I think for a quick bite to eat on way home, stick to the pizza and pasta, but the mains were very overpriced for the quality of the food and presentation.

Took my son and our extended family to Piccolo Italia on Saturday night for his birthday and we all loved it. Great Italian food and excellent staff who were cheerful welcoming and accomodating. They set our table up with birthday decorations and served up a delicious Riccota & Pistachio birthday cake when the time was right. It was my first visit but I'll definitely be visiting again, I couldn't recommend it highly enough.
