Piccola Cucina Enoteca - Prince St.

While not the top Italian meal I've experienced, this restaurant offers a charming ambiance that feels truly authentic. The intimate setting features small, cozy tables that are regularly rearranged for guests. The staff, composed of young Italian men, truly transport you to Italy with their service and cooking. I am unsure about reservations, as I was a walk-in, but the simple Italian wine list and daily specials make this a spot worth revisiting.

Piccola Cucina was an awesome experience!!!!!!..thanks for everything!!

Erica took great care for us. The food was outstanding. The place is small and tables are very close together. So glad we had a reservation. They had to turn away quite a number of people. Will definitely return we we visit NY.

My husband and I just came back from our Honeymoon a few months ago. For our honeymoon we wanted to drink the best wine and eat the best food... so we went to Italy. It was hard coming back at first since real Italian food is so unbelievable good. We stumbled across this place one weekend in the city, once we found out that they were not taking any walk-ins and were booked for all of Friday and Saturday night, we knew that we needed to come back and give this place a try. We came back two weeks later, ensuring that we had a reservation and I am so glad we did. The food, service and atmosphere were unreal.. we felt like we were back in Italy. Everyone who worked here was Italian and it made us fell like we were back on our honeymoon. This place is very very small, so if you are planning to try this out.. Make sure you make a reservation a week or two in advanced. We ordered the Rice Balls and Bruschetta for our appetizer, we both ordered the Orecchiette Gamberi e Burrata because we did not want to share and we were so full that we could not fit dessert in. We already booked our reservation for us and friends for my husband's birthday... he can not wait to go back.

We went to the lunch special and enjoyed it immensely. it has been a little time since the last visit to this restaurant, and it is still good as ever. the service is attentive and efficient. I recommend this place for an authentic, intimate Italian lunch (or dinner). we won't wait long before we come back.
