Great location. Outdoor seating is great, except we were startled by a mouse that seemed quite bold. Pricey for Italian….silly high for their bottles of wine—maybe that’s just Georgetown. Food and service were great.

Had a party of 5 - taking my nephew and his roommates out to dinner since they just all arrived to DC for their internships. I was expecting to order lots of different appetizers and pastas to share before our main entree…but the server got weird about that and kept asking if the things we were ordering were our main dishes. Then he got annoyed and only came to check on us when we flagged him down. Another server who brought out the appetizers got annoyed when we asked for plates and serving utensils. The food was decent but I’m not going back because obviously, it’s too much trouble to check in once in a while and provide plates and utensils. Also, it wasn’t that busy…had a reservation but could have sat without one.

I was disappointed - my scallops gremolata didn’t actually have any gremolata on it, just a few flakes of parsley, and the angel hair pasta was over cooked. I had to ask 3 times for a second glass of wine. To be fair, my friend loved her meal of salmon with Sicilian chopped tomato and olive topping.

My dinner at Ristorante Piccolo was amazing! We were seated on the outside balcony which was very nice and romantic, and the service was very attentive. We ordered the mozzarella fritti that came out about the same time as a free bread and oil appetizer. It was very good!! We then ordered our entrees which came out in a timely manner. Both my boyfriend and I thoroughly enjoyed our food! It was very well portioned. We then ordered the chocolate hazelnut dessert which was just to die for. Our meal was overall amazing and I would highly recommend! We are planning to go back the next time we are in Georgetown.

Excellent food (we had the tuna and the cioppino, with a stuffed mushroom appetizer). If you are dining for two and can get a table on the upper balcony, do so! Great for people watching in good weather. It was sometimes difficult to get the staff’s attention (e.g., to get additional bread), but the service was always pleasant. We’ll return to Il Piccolo.

We went to Ristorante Piccolo after my son's college graduation. Service and food was excellent. When they found out we were celebrating a graduation, they brought my son a special dessert and glass of champagne - a very nice touch to a great celebration for our family.

We took our daughter here after her college graduation. We had a 5 pm reservation which is on the early side so got a great table by a front window. The food was excellent. We ordered three dishes - Chicken Parmesan, tortellini carbonara and agnolotti porcini. All were excellent. We were going to take some of the tortellini home but we couldn’t stop eating it and ended up finishing it all there. They brought us a complimentary tiramisu for dessert which was so yummy and very much appreciated. We would not hesitate to go back.
