"What a mediocre meal. Can’t say any food was bad, just nothing great. To start off a nice lady sat us, was a nice crowd not too crowded. That’s when it got not great our server was TERRIBLE I mean TERRIBLE!!!!! Anyone can see most of my reviews are deserved 5 stars Piccollo gets 3 star for food and ZERO stars for service!!! We sat and waited and waited and waited again not too crowded, but normal nice crowd. Finally waiter came and I was just a bad communicator and could care less. I asked for a taste of a 2 red wines took forever he came back with one (the most expensive with such a tiny taste) then he took forever to come back. I asked for a taste of another and he came back with a full glass no taste. I was thirsty so I took it. But again bad communication he did not listen at all. Then he asked if we want water didn’t offer filtered house just brought us a bottle and popped it open and poured pretty presumptuous! And a fee he did not even ask about profit bottle. Which I often order but sure is nice, professional, and respectful when we are at least asked. We waited and waited and waited to place our order got some bread THANK GOD WE WERE STARVING!!! The bread was mediocre at best what Beverly Hill restaurant doesn’t have awesome bread????!! As we ordered, asked about veal and he points to duck I speak VERY clearly and veal means veal not duck. Order in, chopped arugula salad, eggplant app, pasta, veal. Over an hour from the start our food came no check ins from our waiter or anyone was terrible service TERRIBLE we were invisible and we’re a nice, kind, we’ll dresses polite couple who eats out a LOT! Salad was ok, not bad, ok. Eggplant app delicious!!!! Wine “good”. Aperol very good/normal. Pasta homemade good, not great, but pretty good. Veal huge portion with old school potato’s and veggies pretty bad, tasted like Lysol like canned mushroom sauce no salt or anything special on veggies VERY OLD SCHOOL *Chef this is Beverly Hills this meal should be amazing but was far from it. In summary food was “ok” but far from good, service was HORRIBLE AND VERY SLOW. WAITER please train this guy. Others look up “service”. Price very fair, assuming food would have been good. We’ll never get these 2 hours back. If you want a mediocre Italian place like you’d find in a strip mall you got it. If you want delicious LA/Beverly Hills good and SERVICE this is not the place."
