Came here for a last minute meal as we were visiting Manchester on paddy?s day for the day for my birthday. Wow, just fantastic down to earth staff, giving high quality service. Even when something wasn?t right it wasn?t too much trouble to make it right. You could tell the restaurant had been extremely busy all day for them but still giving out great quality service. Our main waiter especially José was really attentive and friendly despite him being really busy. The food was fresh and absolutely delicious. Hope the refurb went well and we hope to return soon. Thank you for making our visit really enjoyable and memorable.

We were two adults and two children. Very delicious pizzas, lasagna and salad. Very attentive service (Jennifer and guy from Malaga). Highly recommended.Kid-friendliness: No problem with children

I had the most wonderful time at Piccolino! Not only is it the best spot for coffee in Manchester, but the service was exceptional. When a fly fell into my delicious lemon juice, the staff graciously offered to replace it without hesitation. Their kindness and attentiveness truly made my day. Piccolino's charming ambiance only added to the fantastic experience. I highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for top-notch coffee and impeccable service in Manchester.

Had a wonderful evening here. Great atmosphere, classy environment, excellent service, wonderful food & drink.We started with some nicely made negronis at the bar before moving to our table, where we enjoyed a spritz and a Bellini to go with our antipasti. Appreciated our brilliant waiter, Jose, who gave plenty of advice on what to order.We decided to split one of the pasta dishes to follow our antipasti - a truffle and pecorino dish which was fantastic.For our mains we went for the duck and orange, and the sea bream - both very good!Desserts were lovely too, shared the excellent tiramisu and a choux bun with chocolate ice-cream. So good!Many many wines to choose from, ranging from affordable to extravagant (we went with 'affordable' and were not dissatisfied at all with our choice).Thanks to the team and to Jose in particular for making our visit memorable and enjoyable ?

5 of us chosen 4 different dishes. None if us was happy with the food. Dry carbonara, salty mushroom ragu/risotto under cooked veggie pasta dish. Would never recommend to anyone. No tip but did spent £220

Imagine tearing a piece of chewy baguette from asda and throwing it on a plate, plain. No grill, skillet or rub of garlic for miles. Then chopping at least 13 cheap Asda, rock hard salad tomatoes. No juicy plum or beef tomatoes, again for miles. Sprinkle with asdas own dried oregano and a drop of veg oil. Completely smother the chewy bread in the bland tomatoes so you cant even see the plate, and you've got a piccolino bruchetta. My daughter loves bruschetta, but this was something else. I didn't complain because my daughter begged me not to go through the embarrassment. It was absolutely terrible considering the price. It was a busy Mother's Day, but really? Worst starter I've ever seen.The service was swift I'll give them that, but unfriendly. Not one smile or how was your meal? Is everything ok? Not a word or even a slightly raised grin.Apart from that, my son enjoyed his 4 ribs and calzone. I enjoyed my cold chicken livers and carbonara. My wife enjoyed her stodgy risotto. One saving grace is my daughter loved her pizza. Blue cheese with honey. Very nice indeed.For me, it's overpriced and average.

Staff attentive. Although didn?t get seated until 20 mins after booked time. Food and drinks over priced. Ordered lobster and steak £90 thinking it would be a show stopper. Small lobster with the same amount of meat as a king prawn. Was left hungry afterwards. Pasta dishes bland. Bill was £612 for 9 people. For that price I would expect everything to be perfect. Was average at best.

Just been in for mother day don?t normally review but always enjoyed Piccolinos until this visit. First drinks order was messed up bringing 2 pints of lager instead of 1 pint and a water. After that we requested the water again 3 more times only to ask a different server. Then my son?s pasta had a large amount of uncooked stuck together pasta I informed our server said I will tell the chef? Can?t cook pasta in an Italian.

Beautiful restaurant, the staff were very friendly and helpful. The food was generally good but could have been elevated slightly...the bread on the cheese and meat platter was a bit dry, and the tomatoes on the bruscetta pomodoro were bland,however with a bit of olive oil and balsamic, was very enjoyable. The burrata was delicious, as was the wine.
