Finally got a chance to check this place out. The new location is really nice and thankfully is able to hold many more tables. Nice crowd for a Monday night. It’s great to see a local business upgrade to a bigger place in such a tough industry. Food was great, service was great. Looking forward to trying more dishes for sure ! Highly recommend
*** update **** After dozens of visits since the initial review I can confidently call Piccante one of my favorites in the neighborhood. Food and desserts are delicious! Mark and Nicole always provide top tier service and make us feel like family. Keep it up!

This has became one of our favorite places to eat at. My Husband and I go there once a week and we either have Mark as our waiter or Nicole as our waitress. They are both personable and make us feel so welcomed and loved.The food is absolutely incredible. We have tried so many of Their dishes as well as desserts, and I love every single one of them. The decor, ambience dim lighting and brick walls just makes It feel so cozy, romantic, and just gives me a happy feeling. This is a must try in Bay Ridge if you haven’t tried them already!

This spot was on my radar for awhile. I finally got the chance to go, and enjoyed having my first 2026 restaurant experience there. The food is very good. No pics to share because I was too busy eating! The seafood risotto is delicious! Short rib ragu & Brussels sprouts were very tasty also. All portions are ample. Ambiance is nice. Warm relaxed vibes.

Came here with friends after touring Dyker Heights to see the holiday lights, and it was the perfect way to end the night. I had the honey-braised boneless short ribs with string beans and mashed potatoes—absolutely delicious. Tender, flavorful, and incredibly satisfying.
My wife ordered the gnocchi with spicy sausage, fully expecting to take leftovers home, but it was so good she finished every bite, perfectly paired with a great red wine. I managed to sneak a few spoonfuls myself and can confirm it was excellent.
Our friends ordered the pasta with clams and the pasta with Bolognese sauce—both were clearly a hit, as there was barely anything left on either plate.
Even the kids were happy, enjoying white pasta and a hamburger, which they enthusiastically declared “yummy!”
The staff was very attentive throughout the evening, making sure everything was perfect without ever being intrusive. Great food, great atmosphere, and a wonderful spot to visit after a night out in the neighborhood.

Piccante recently moved to a different, nearby location. It's at least three times the size but, as with the old space, has a relaxed feel. There's now a full-size bar and, in place of one server there are now four or five.
The food is good and the portions are generous.
At the old location, the one drawback from my viewpoint was the likelihood that overloud, thudding-bass music would be playing. That's gone; Now it's usually softer and more appropriate.
