Celebrated my birthday this year there.
We ordered full three courses there. Everything was perfect. The waiter there was a super cute boy. The chef himself took our order. The main courses he recommended was amazing and the dessert was so delicate.
As I see, usually the simple dishes could test the chef most. But the chef there did a really good job.
Highly recommended restaurant.
A most excellent quaint restaurant with attentive and friendly staff. This place will certainly become a regular restaurant for me. The food was tasty and a decent amount.

Quite possibly THE best Italian food in Dundee.
I would mark this restaurant 5 stars, however I feel that, like the other people to review this establishment have previously commented on, the lack of space and "crammed" feeling does knock off a star.
It IS cosy. And quite like the Agacan, it can add to the appeal, with the whole "exclusive" feel. However, some people do not always go for that.
Also, I feel that we did wait a little bit longer than some customers, but also this could be perceived as a good thing. They certainly dont hurry you out the door like some "more popular" restaurants do. You feel at ease and can eat at your own pace. So please go prepared to have a wee bit of a wait between courses. Also, it all seems to be incredibly fresh so its worth the wait.
The food cannot be faulted. PLEASE DONT CHANGE!!! Nothing can be added to the food to make it better, it was simply amazing. I was quite surprised I enjoyed it so much. I had the soup of the day, which was spiced bean and tomato, while my husband had the garlic mushrooms. Both dishes were quite tasty, the soup portion was MASSIVE.
For entree, I had spaghetti bolognese, which was outstanding. The sauce was perfect, flavoursome and a perfect consistency. Hubby had a mixed pepper thin based pizza - wow. I had to steal some. It was delicious. And to finish off we shared waffles out of sheer greed. Another special of the day but seriously, they should be on the menu permanently. They were pretty awesome and rounded up our meal perfectly.
The staff are polite and were quite nice, accommodating pretty much every request we had, including changes to the meals without problem.
Am definitely going back. Can now proudly be known as my new favourite restaurant :)
A great place to have a quiet and romantic meal , atmosphere was set perfectly for that as the place was set up beautiful and lit by mostly candles. When I was there with 3 other friends they only had the set dinner options which ranged from £31 for 2 courses and £39 for 3 courses. The menu had quite a variety of starters , mains and desserts to choose from as well. It was certainly one of the pricier set dinners I had in Dundee but the food did not disappoint, ingredients were fresh and the pasta was made to perfection.
First time visiting this restaurant and we were very impressed. The food was amazing, staff were lovely and setting was very nice. We would highly recommend!
We came back again to enjoy this lovely little restaurant and it's still a real gem. We had a lovely romantic evening here.
A lovely selection of authentic delicious dishes and good wine at reasonable prices. The service was very professional and staff charming.
Really enjoyed the cosy atmosphere.
Food was delicious. Staff were fantastic. Nothing negative, I’d thoroughly recommend going.
A gorgeous little gem of Perth Road. Have had two date nights here, both absolutely lovely.
We were accommodated at short notice after our other dinner plans fell through, and it turned out to be much better than what we'd originally gone for! We had a lovely waiter, fab atmosphere, and the line cooks were absolutely on point that night. Really friendly and intimate, with no sense of being rushed at all, even when the night was drawing on. I highly recommend their wine selection, and their Tiramisu!

My wife and I went for an early Valentine's meal, having looked for well thought of Italian restaurants in the local area. We were both delighted by Picccolo.
I had the tuscan chicken liver pate to start, my wife went with some garlic bread. The pate itself was good and the toasted ciabatta bread was really good. The garlic bread was pretty standard.
For mains my wife went with the chicken carbonara. The chicken was succulent and the sauce really tasty, all round an excellent dish. I went with the steak tagliata, which blew me away. The steak itself was incredibly tasty, one of the best I've ever eaten and went really well with the rest of the dish.
For dessert my wife had the cheesecake from the specials board, which was just stunning and I really regret not chosing myself. I had a gelato and sherbet gelato combo that was very nice.
The place had a nice ambience and the staff were attentive. The cost is fair for the standard of food you get.
All in all a great meal we will both remember for a long time.
Such a great place, I have been meaning to visit for years and did not disappoint.
Despite not having a booking the staff were really accommodating letting my partner, our newborn in her pram and I sit outside in the nice little outdoor area by the street for something to eat and drink.
The atmosphere was brilliant with the music and the smells of the food being cooked and as we were sat beside the kitchen window the chef had a chat with us while we were sitting.
The food was amazing, arrived really quickly and was cooked to perfection, and the kitchen had no problem when my girlfriend asked for a mushroom salad after we had eaten our main even tho the restaurant was very busy.
I would recommend Piccolo to everybody and we will definitely be back very soon to try other dishes on the menu
From our first warm welcome, in this cozy Italian restaurant, we knew we were going to have a good evening. The place is small and everything feels authentic, and the food is fresh, cooked from scratch in the kitchen. Not typical pizza & pasta, this is a better sort of Italian style selection, such as Sea Bass Saltimbocca or Lemon Chicken Linguine. Very glad we came here, enjoyed our meal immensely.
It's always a treat to go to Piccolo. As the name suggests it is small but creates an intimate dining experience. The staff are friendly, welcoming and professional. The dishes are fresh, delicious and imaginative. A family favourite with us.
Really lovely place! We would pass it all the time and always wanted to go in for a meal and they did not disappoint when we finally did! The food, service and atmosphere were all amazing and made for an excellent romantic evening!
