We dined there again with some elderly friends on 17th June. This is a small restaurant and pizza takeaways run by a friendly and capable couple who couldn’t be faulted for their care and attention. The food is not gourmet, but simple and tasty with excellent presentation. We’ve been there several times before which I think tells you something as I only return to restaurants where I enjoy the meal and the surroundings. It’s more of a pizza take away than a restaurant but nevertheless I recommend it for a quiet, enjoyable evening with fresh satisfying servings. Also they are BYO wine which we consider a distinct advantage.
I have been to Il Piccolo many times with my family and have been more or less happy with the meal and experience. This time I ordered the cranberry, chicken, Brie and mushroom pizza. I was kind of let down, as the pizza lacked flavour and the base was a bit soggy. This is the first time I’ve ever been disappointed with a meal here. Other than that, the service was great. When I return I will probably order a pasta dish or another pizza.
If you want to have the best italian food at a sensible price . Try this restaurant. Probably the most pristine establishment anywhere in Auckland
Ok, we had takeaway vege pizza and meatball penne. Pizza was quite small and the pizza base a little soggy by the time we got home. Toppings were nice, using olives with pips in them was annoying. Penne needed extra salt for flavour. Overall I wouldn’t go back, it wasn’t really good but it wasn’t really bad either.
Went today for the first time. We are locals and love the Italian scene around this area. Ordered the Piccolo Pasta never had it before it was different nothing to great. Onions were raw and too much garlic. It was a takeaway order so asked the lady for some Parmesan, she said its on there already but want when I opened the box. Who refuses for Parmesan at an Italian restaurant lol. Anyways will give it a try next time, still quite a bit of menu to try.
Very pleasant dinner for 4. Shared a pizza for entree and 4 mains of Pork, steak and risotto and penne. All were enjoyed and met expectations. Dessert, the men had some cassata ice-cream which they thought was nice and my little spoonful was too! (even if a tad expensive at $12.) Impressed we didn’t have to ask for more water or wine glasses – they just appeared. Nice touch the owner and chef coming to our table after the meal. Place seemed fresh and clean and the service was friendly and timely. A place to return to soon.
Fantastic pizza always good and excellent value for money. One of the best around. Would recommend that you give them a try at least once, but you’ll be back.
