Excellent meals which included Shrimp with marinara sauce, Diver Scallops with linguine, and Chicken Parm with a side of Penne. Waitress was attentive and courteous. The only complaint from the table was that they felt it was a bit pricey but the food was excellent. As the old saying goes…. You get what you pay for!

A harsh realization…
That it is no longer worth it to eat out. When you first step into Cafe Piccalo, you get the sense of a quaint, intimate Italian restaurant with leather bound menus and plastic candlelight. However, the longer you sit, the more you notice the mishmash of country/rock music and off-putting wall decor.
Upon opening the menu I was confronted with the realization that you could not order a chicken dish for less than $30. With high price tags come high expectations. I initially ordered the Chicken Marsala, and my company ordered the Chicken Gorgonzola. What I received, however, was not chicken Marsala. It had the floured chicken and mushrooms, but the sauce was a dark red that had spice and an unwelcome peppery taste. The Chicken Gorgonzola was pungent to say the least and abrasive to the taste buds. After asking my friend what she planned to do with her leftovers, she stated she would take it home and “doctor it up” to help with the flavor. Not something you want to hear after spending $30. When the waiter came to check on us I asked to return my dish as it was not Marsala, and I was advised that this was “their marsala”. I opted, instead, for the Chicken Piccata. While the chicken was tender and juicy, the only flavor it had came from the sauce, which was largely held up by the capers they threw on top of the chicken. With hardly any (oily) sauce, pasta, and a single split chicken breast, it was not enough to fill someone up. While the waiter was kind and exchanged my food, it unfortunately wasn’t enough to justify the money spent.

Absolutely loved this place! We had the night’s special and the fish was so tender it melted in your mouth! The bread was so delicious and fresh. It reminded of my Nonna’s homemade bread! Our waiter – he was great! Everyone was very nice. Great atmosphere! We definitely will be back!

The food at Cafe Piccolo was phenomenal. I had chicken scarbiello and my fiance had the scallops with crab stuffed ravioli. The parking lot was full, not an ideal set up. My sense is the people next door at the raw bar were parked there too. Service was a tad slow as we had to ask for drink refills. Again, food was fantastic

We had the stuffed eggplant appetizer, burratta salad and chicken saltimboca and they were outstanding. Spencer was our server, the overall food, atmosphere and service was superb!

Excellent experience! Amy our bartender, and later waitress, did an excellent job of making us feel welcomed, and cared for. I am pretty sure, we have randomly found (thanks Google maps ) our new favorite Italian restaurant in the entire low country! The atmosphere is on point! And the vibe is subdued. You simply MUST try the stuffed banana peppers (appetizer) ! I lost count of how many times I said to my wife “oh my God ” they ARE that good! 11/10. Will definitely come again! Most highly recommend!

Our server was impeccable and the food was nothing short of amazing. I am gluten free and was amazed they offered gluten free bread. And it was delicious. The special drink menu offers a variety of awesome drinks and I had a delicious tiramisu martini. I then had chicken Marsala with gf pasta and it didn’t disappoint. My husband had the crab cakes which were the best he ever had from Maine to Maryland through the coast. Every dish was made to perfection and the cheesecake desserts are homemade and brought in and also creamy and phenomenal. Caffè Piccolo has indoor and outdoor seating and I can’t wait to go back!

My favorite dining experience while at the beach! Loved the French-like atmosphere of the outdoor dining. It was absolutely gorgeous! The best dish we ordered was the special: scallops over ravioli stuffed with blue crab. Yummy! It was rich and the scallops were huge and perfectly cooked. The marinara sauce wasn’t the best…it needed to be sweeter. The bread and garlic oil dip was fantastic and our waitress was very good. I definitely recommend dining here!
