"5/5 stars! Picco is hands down the best Italian spot in town! The pasta dishes are cooked to perfection, and the pizzas are crispy and flavorful. The service is top-notch, with friendly and attentive staff. Cozy atmosphere and great prices. Highly recommend the Devinci pizza and Brownie for dessert. We'll be back!"

Excellent food and outstanding service! We had the wood-fired son of yeti pizza which was delicious and the gnocchi which sets a standard for how gnocchi with sausage should be served. Our server, Marcus was on point. His recommendations were spot on and he made us feel right at home. Thanks for a great evening Marcus and the whole staff at Picco!

Food was terrible. Service was ok. There were a lot flies flying around inside in the dining area. Barf

Excellent service, absolutely stunning atmosphere, and incredible tasting food!
The gnocchi & Risotto were especially delicious!
Their pizza is also the best in the West, and I highly recommend it as well!

I have been going for years and have rated the food 5 stars before. However, I can compare the current servings to those of the past.
The tuna tartare on crispy rice has shrunk. The crudo is now served with a grapefruit/citus mix. It’s too acidic and it’s bathing in the juice. The sliders were a little dry. Other dishes such as the avocado toast with balsmic and chorizo were still phenomenal.
Perhaps a bad night?

Excellent food, but the prices were too expensive for the portion sizes. Only 4 out of 5 because of the costs which were pushing close to $100 per person with a bottle of wine.

I’ve been here a couple of times. The first time I ordered the steak which was phenomenal but the waiter was MIA and the busser brought us the wrong food. The 2nd time I ordered the risotto which was amazing but the busser bumped into us a few times. I would go again for the food if invited.

We love the food at Picco and service is good too. However, the noise level for dining inside is really exhausting. When full, the room has nothing soft to lessen the volume. At our last visit, we all decided to bypass the dessert, which we had looked forward to at the end of meal, because at that point we most wanted to exit the very loud room. Picco is now a restaurant we will only visit in better weather for outdoor dining.

I ordered the raviolis, soup and arugula salad. Very disappointed. The soup was a very meager helping, the raviolis (pasta) was uncooked, and the arugula salad was wilted with nothing accompanying the arugula, only a tsp of olive oil on the side. 3 bread crumbs and a tablespoon of Parmesan cheese. Not worth the $$$. Very disappointed

everybody was friendly. the food was really good. restrooms were big and clean. a bit of a weight but only because they are so busy. it was worth it they have the best margarita pizza I've had in California. I've had a lot of Pizza in California. since New York this is my favorite. the service got a bit confused like we got our french fries after drinks and pizza instead of before but I think it's only because they were so totally slammed. the service was very friendly and informative. if you get a chance you should try the pumpkin ravioli it was amazing but I think it's seasonal.

Parking: parking is on a busy Street so it may be a bit of a walk.

We dined here on 9/24 at 7 pm with a party of 4. Food was amazing. Ambiance too dark. Could barely see each other.

Service the worst I’ve had in a long time. The older woman who works there really shouldn’t work in a service industry. She splashed water on me without apologizing when first pouring us water. I thought something dropped on me from the ceiling and she cheerfully said “oh I must have splashed you”…..and throughout the meal, she almost knocked stuff over multiple times. Later she spilled beer and wine all over my partner’s father and barely apologized. His clothes were soaked and his phone and car key got wet.

Despite all these mishaps, not a single thing was comped even though they spilled all over the poor man and the table. It was also my partner’s stepmom’s birthday and again no free dessert, nothing. I’ve never eaten somewhere where there is such a huge mishap and nothing is comped. You should at least offer to cover dry cleaning!!!

More on the awful waitress: she talked my partner’s mom into not getting the risotto because it would take too long to come out. Then it took forever for them to bring out any entrees and she could have gotten it after all. I repeat: this woman really needs to not work in service. She also never repeated back any orders after we placed them. Her attitude sucked too. Maybe she had a bad day but holy hell. At these prices, service needs to be better.

It’s a shame that a place like this doesn’t have better service because it ruins the experience…
