When the menu works right some of the best Asian fusion food.
Be VERY CAREFUL ORDERING - the menu is misleading. One dish came out with different meat from what was said on the menu. Our server told us that is just the way it was despite us not touching the dish we had to pay for it. That in my opinion is very unprofessional - it is your job as a restaurant to properly label your dishes and ingredients…
Ambiance is cool.

This place is so so so good! I went with my husband the first time. We were amazed by all the beautiful flavors. The naan is top tier, especially with the curried or seasoned butter! The Brussels were delicious, the sauce used is so tasty. The wings are amazing and papa salad. Everything we have had here has been A 1.

Didn’t enjoy the flavor of the food because it was super strong. If you like P.F. Chang’s kind of flavors then you probably like this place. The music is super loud so if you’re expecting to have a conversation, this is not the place. Wait staff was very friendly and polite. Bathrooms are clean.

Food was tasty but not a good value given the very small portions. We ordered five dishes for two people and were hungry at the end. Bill including tip was $150.

I grew up in Singapore and while there are many options in LA, I now have a new home-away-from-home whenever I get that craving for SE Asian dishes.
Chef Macks will cook for you like you’re his family. He frequents farmers markets to source the freshest ingredients and offer menu items accordingly. Chef Macks is also a wonderful human being, lovely to chat with, and eager to receive perspectives.
Often when I seek out Chinese or SE Asian restaurants, I go home regretting my decision bcoz the meal was too oily / heavy. I’ve been to Piccalilli 4x in recent months, and zero problems there. Thanks to the fresh ingredients and thoughtful balance of herbs & spices.
I’ve barely scratched the surface with their cocktail menu, coz I’m obsessed with their Tree Star (with pandan liqueur). I’ve had it with gin vs mezcal - both exquisite. When in doubt, go with anything their servers / mixologists recommend.
I can’t brag enough about the entire staff. Everyone works seamlessly together with the best attitudes. From GM Adolfo, AGM Diego, servers David & Yago - 10/10 - simply brilliant.

WOW so glad we stopped in here. Simply looking for a walk in cocktail. The food around us smelled amazing, we couldn’t escape it. Just from the smell alone, we’ll be back! But anyways, there’s more.
The bar service was top of the line. The bartender didn’t even let us pay until we confirmed that we had enjoyed the drinks he made us. Both our drinks were delicious, unique, balanced. This bartender was clearly trained well, and the host was also very welcoming. Very excited to have a new place to return to.

I went to this restaurant the other night with a friend, and I’m still thinking about it! The food was absolutely amazing, the cocktails were spot-on, and the Brussels sprouts were out of this world—seriously delicious. I can’t wait to go back and bring my husband next time. Such a gem!

Absolutely blown away by Piccalilli! From the moment we walked in, the experience was seamless and welcoming (and has been for the past 3 times I have come in). The service by the GM, Adolfo, and the AGM, Diogo, was warm and attentive. They were genuinely passionate about the food they serve.
Now the food—WOW! Every dish was an explosion of flavors. The ingredients tasted fresh, the presentation was beautiful, and the flavor combinations were next-level. I highly recommend the brussels sprouts, Nam Prik chicken wings, green papaya salad, katsu!
They also offer Happy Hour, which has great deals and great drinks!
Piccalilli is officially a new favorite. Whether you're a local or just passing through, don’t sleep on this gem—it’s a masterclass in hospitality and culinary imagination.
