The food here was so good! I got a caesar salad, lasagna, parmesan filet, tiramisu, and lemon cake…read more I wish the caesar salad had a bit more tang to the dressing but the greens were fresh and I like the mini tomato caprese they put on the side. The lasagna was the special and it was delish and very rich. The parmesan filet was my favorite. Everything about it was absolutely incredible. We had wonderful service at the bar. The ambiance was very nice for an Italian restaurant. Dim and bustling with energy. 10/10

Well the service was excellent considering we had a party of 12…read more It was very loud in there. The food overpriced and meh. I got the crab cake special that was swimming in a very spicy sauce and I like spicy. It had a little side salad of greens. I ordered the spinach and green salad with beets, gorgonzola, and candied pecans. Now I love gorgonzola and what I paid for the salad I expected a lot more than a few sprinkles of it. I did ask for extra and was mot charged for it. There are better places to eat in Springfield.

But you slow yourself down and enjoy each and every morsel and texture of this creation! It is phenomenal! As usual, Nonna's ... BRAVO!!!

We celebrated two birthdays here last night and Piccolo's did not disappoint! Kaylee, was our…read moreserver and she was truly a 10-star server! The manicotti with blush was excellent. The others had eggplant parmesan and said it was the best they had ever eaten. One ate Italian nachos and did not care for it, but she's often times disappointed with what she orders in restaurants. The bread sticks were right out of the oven and excellent. The salads were fresh and very good. The dressing was outstanding and one person in our group bought a big bottle of it to take home. The birthday ladies were gifted a dessert. We all tasted the amazing lemon cake and Tiramisu and both were delicious beyond words. Parking is right out front with easy access. Reservations are recommended. We ate early at 4pm when they opened on a weekday. Highly-recommend it, if you're one that dines early. They offer a separate room for big groups. I'll rate Piccolo's as the best dining experience in the Ozarks!

The meatballs: These are an excellent meatball and an excellent sauce. These aren't some rolled meat with salt and pepper. These meatballs have an excellent herb accented flavor and taste wonderful. Alfredo Carbonara: Again, a fantastic dish. Very rich flavor with a good dose of prosciutto accent. Tomato Bisque: This isn't some Sysco product they're putting out - this stuff is a real deal, made from scratch bisque. A very balanced flavor with a good depth of texture....not some watery kind of soup. Cannolis: desert will (not) disappoint. The cannoli cream is a nice flavor...with a slight orange zest touch. I've always loved this place. The food may not always come out super fast. But so what, so long as the food comes out right....and I'll sure say....the food comes out great!

One of the worst customer service experiences I've ever had. I've never been blamed and faulted for receiving the wrong order, made to feel utterly ridiculous for asking for a refund, and received the most insane manic meltdown over the phone by a restaurant owner. I genuinely can not explain the behavior and experience I just had, but I urge you to never order Uber Eats (or potentially order anything) from this establishment if you don't want to chance them putting YOU through the wringer for them getting it wrong.

Saw this cute Italian place in shopping center behind a gas station on our way back to our room…read morefrom the Battlefield Mall, so decided to hit it for dinner. It's a small place, but also had plenty of room as well. The decor was mostly art for sale from local artists. Our orders were taken quickly, and the food came out in a reasonable amount of time. I liked that with the bread you get a plate of garlic, and there are bottles of olive oil and balsamic vinegar on the table. My wife got the crab cakes and pasta, while I got The Momma. Both were very good, and with good-sized portions that we were able to take in leftover boxes. Service was mostly good, except our college-age server was slow to get soda refills. But otherwise everything was great

We got in after 30 minutes of arrival, which is fine. We got our food after 45 minutes of ordering, which is ok. They gave us some white bread that looked good with a plate of minced garlic. It looked so good and we were excited, as soon as we touched the bread it was cold to the touch. We were expecting at least warm bread. So it wasn't great and we didn't even eat it all for the first time of our existence. Then we order an appetizer, the garlic cheese bread... I had one piece and was done my husband at 5 pieces and was done. The bread had an ok texture but the flavor seriously lacked, there was 0 taste of garlic and it had a strange cheese taste, definitely regret ordering it, debating whether we should box it up to go or not... yikes! I don't know how you mess up cheese bread but they did. My husband order the New Yorker panini, he stated that the bread was bad and it was way too salty overall and he loves salt. He only ate one half, and the pasta salad he got as a side, it was ok to say the least and lacked flavor as well. I ordered the toasted ravioli appetizer as my meal, and it was kind of fine. It was barely lukewarm, the crust was crunchy and good but the beef was barely seasoned. Plus side it is big portions, bad thing is it wasn't good so now we're left with bad big portions. The ambiance is chill and it gets very loud where you can't hear the other to converse. The only Italian thing about this place is the name. We will not be back and we wasted our money because it was not cheap at all. Very sad and disappointing. If I could give it .5 review I would.

(Keep it up, Springfield! ) walked into a beautiful Cafe with stained glass, woodwork which in itself was jawdropping.

Both dishes had a side of mixed greens salad dressed with an amazing basil lime aoili...it was the first time I have ever seen my husband enjoy mixed greens! And the pickled red onions were awesome!

Our server was very helpful and took time to answer all our questions. We started with Andean tamales with pork. Ahhh-mazing! The best thing we ate all night. For our entrees we had Blackfish and Lomo Saltado with steak. The fish was delicious and generous. However, the Lomo Saltado was a bit underwhelming compared to everything else. Overall, highly recommend!
