    Piccolo Cucina is a small but very cozy restaurant serving delicious dishes in a tastefully decorated place. We have tried the burrata, radish, potato filled crispy ravioli appetizer, sea bass paired with a glass of white wine, stewed veal roll paired with a glass of red wine, and tart tatine as dessert; all were excellent. We have noticed a few potential customers being turned down since they did not have reservations. The service was timely yet not rigid therefore allowing the customers to socialize and enjoy their food in a relaxed atmosphere. It is a relief to see that there are still places as this one which keep the old traditions going at a very high standard level. We very highly recommend this gem if you happen to be in the area.

    Beautiful restaurant, very tastefully decorated and yet warm and cosy. There was a warm welcome right from the start and we felt looked after throughout with extra water, bread and wine top up even before we knew we needed it. We had time between courses to sit and chat and didn’t feel rushed. Absolutely loved the food. We only intended to have an appetiser and main due to the portion sizes but the selection of deserts was so tempting that we indulged and were not disappointed. Glad we booked as many people were turned away.

    The foods there was wonderful. Even the pre-meal bread is a surprise. I don't know Italian, so I ordered three courses at random, all of them are tasteful. I think I will revisit it when I come to Milan next time.

    Absolutely great, cosy, elegant, warm, tiny little place with fantastic food and very friendly but profesional service. Just a little gem with extremely good value for what you get. I wish I were living in the neighbourhood. Well deserved 5 stars and bravo for the Chef!!!

    The food was wonderful. It was obvious that the chef took pride in his work. I had the beef ravioli=the sauce was divine. My husband had the fish/ratatouille. The restaurant is small, only eight tables, so quaint and welcoming. If your searching for good northern Italian food, search no more!

    The place is nice, well designed and all. Though it was very tight we set 20 cm from the other table, and 20 cm from the kitchen door. We paid for 1 antipasto, 2 primi,2 Bloody Mary & 1 caffe. 65€

    As always, the menu had some incredible options with local produce and the flavours of Italy interpreted in a very creative way. Superb wines and a careful and friendly service.

    Great food in this very cozy environment. The service was en point and the highlight would be the geese confit, delicious! I’m not much for desserts, but the fried panetone was very good.

    We enjoyed our visit to La Piccola Cucina very much. The menu was innovative and quite interesting. The quality of the food was excellent, not overpriced. I recommend Baccalà con finocchi, arance e mango, gnocchi con crema di zucca e polvere di liquerizia e lombatina di vitello glassata e finferli. The desserts are a must: do not miss the flan di cioccolato caldo e il gelato di amaretti. Conversation was very confortable due to very low noise in the room. Social distancing was correctly implemented. We had been there before and we will go back soon.

    This is a great place if you like intimate dining. The restaurant is small, the menu is on two pages, one server serves all the guests, and no one had to wait. The food was inspired, some of it surprising, and well worth the price. Would go again any time.

    Food quality was good but the flavors were not very strong and salt was missing. The swordfish crust was a bit soaked in oil and the stuffed zucchini had an unpleasant sweet and sour sauce . The pasta for primo were good
