Food was very good, but service was slow. Took over 2 hrs from seating to check and frequently trying to find our waiter. Decorated nicely but we were sat in the back, an area with less activity and wasn’t as exciting. Suggest requesting seating towards the front unless you have a baby or young family.

Food was delicious, but not quite perfect. We had a large party and shared appetizers. Mysto Italiano (an Italian charcuterie), bruschetta, fried calamari and caprese. All delicious and plentiful.
The entrees were still delicious and in the $20-$30 range with a few slight misses. The veal was a bit tough and the veggies were on the rare side; the green beans were very undercooked and I would have said that they were blanched, but not cooked.
My seafood over pasta in a pink cream sauce was delicious. I subbed linguine for the capellini since I don’t trust angel hair in a large group. Sauce was delicious, scallops were perfection; shrimps were over cooked. In eating, I could see how capellini would be the better choice for the sauce.
Large groups are hard to cook for. I look forward to trying them again with a smaller group to see if that makes it perfect.

Came here for dinner and I wish I could give this restaurant 1000/10 stars! ⭐️ From the hospitality, to the food, to the presentations of each dish, was truly beyond incredible. We left feeling very full and satisfied and they are very good with the portions sizes! And MAJOR shoutout to the owner, Lorenzo, who was very kind and friendly and made sure we were well taken care of! I’d highly recommend everyone coming for some delicious authentic Italian dishes, you won’t be disappointed! I will definitely be coming back!! ❤️❤️

Stopped in for lunch and we were impressed with the style and decor of the restaurant. We were seated across the open kitchen. For some it may be a distraction but, I enjoyed watching the chef staff at work. The hostess/waitress was attentive. Matter of fact the entire team of servers were assisting. Ample selection of entrees to make everyone happy. We ordered the tomato and homemade mozzarella with sweet balsamic salad. It was fresh while the tomatoes were still not in season it was tasty. Next was the chicken parmigiana over penne and eggplant parmigiana arrived. The portions were big and enough was left to bring home. My wife enjoyed her meal while for the tomato sauce was to acidic almost to the point when served I paused because of the aroma. That’s not to say it was bad but, for me I don’t like a tangy flavor but balanced approach to all the ingredients on the plate where each ingredient has its own moment of enjoyment. Maybe it was too much sauce drowning over the eggplant and pasta. Next time I would ask for less sauce or a dish without it. Prices were average and comparable to other restaurants offering similar dishes. They do have more formal seating in the back with a private room if needed. As for outdoor seating it is available but, the tables and chairs are the high ones. They do have dinner specials in the evening. By the way it byob. Give this place a try.

We went to Cafe Picasso with a group of 10, and every single person loved their meal — which never happens! The staff was incredibly accommodating and attentive from start to finish, making our night even more enjoyable.
We ordered so much food it’s hard to list it all, but everything was fantastic. The bread basket came loaded with fresh, warm bread and the most delicious garlic knots. For appetizers, we had a meat and cheese board, fried breaded burrata, and calamari — all perfectly done and so flavorful.
Every main dish was cooked to perfection and served in generous portions. And the desserts? Amazing! The gelato, tiramisu, and cake were all hits across the table. To top it all off, Chef Mike came out and serenaded us — such a fun and memorable touch!
Cafe Picasso is easily one of the best dining experiences I’ve had in a long time. Delicious food, warm atmosphere, and outstanding service. Highly recommend for groups, special occasions, or just a great night out!

Café Picasso is an absolute delight! The food was delicious—fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The service was warm and attentive without being overbearing, making us feel truly welcomed. The atmosphere is cozy, perfect for a date night or evening with family or friends.
Every detail, from the lighting to the music, added to the overall charm. We left full and happy, already planning our next visit. Highly recommend this spot if you’re in the area, It is BYOB and there is a liquor store next door.

I had the Fusilli entree and we also got the carbonara. The house salads were delicious and light as well as the bread. We got Calamari (sooo delicious) — definitely the best calamari i’ve ever had anywhere and the arancini (rice balls) which were also delicious. The carbonara was not good. We’ve had it at different locations and I would not recommend it here.
Overall the entire experience was nice and I enjoyed my pasta dish and appetizers heavily. I would recommend this place!
