Piccolo Arancio has a nice atmosphere, and the staff were genuinely kind and friendly, which made the dining experience pleasant. The service was attentive, and we felt welcomed throughout our visit. That said, the food and overall experience felt a bit overrated for the price. While everything was fine, it didn’t quite live up to the hype or justify the higher cost. The portions and flavors were good, but not particularly memorable compared to other spots at a similar price point. Overall, it’s a decent place with warm service, but the value didn’t fully match expectations. I would think about visiting again, but likely not as a top choice unless I was already nearby or there was a special occasion.

My husband and I had a terrible experience at Piccolo Arancia on Valentine's Dau,leaving me im tears. The service was abrupt; I wanted a salad and the server said:" I got your order." but he left before I could ask for a salad. It never arrived and in fairness, we were not charged for it. We waited a long tiem over 30 minutes for anything but bread and a beverage as others who came after us were served meals and appetisers by servers. There was nothing online that the menu had and when I asked for no salt on my meal, due to my taste preferemce and diet requirements, I had 2 choices. I did not like the vegetables that came and when I asked for an empty plate, I received 2 to 3 small plates of the vegetables. I had a half of a filet mignon and bread fro dinner. My husband ordered a pasta

We visited Piccolo Arancio for the first time and enjoyed our meal here! Everything was fresh, and we thought there was quite the variety of dishes to choose from on the menu. Lots of unique and modern choices that we appreciated. My husband’s lamb was delicious and cooked perfectly, and I really enjoyed my rigatoni alla buttera. The desserts were fantastic too! We’ll be thinking about the baked berries for a while. The servers were sweet and very attentive. Good spot to know about in Farmington!

We went here for Valentine’s Day’s and we were both excited to try a new restaurant. However it was very disappointing. We waited 1 1/2 hours for the Waitress to tell me they ran out of the chicken piccata and I would have to choose something different. So I chose the chicken parm. Yes I was annoyed that it took that long to figure that out but then the manager comes over and apologized for our waitress FORGETTING TO PUT IN THE ORDER! they didn’t run out of the chicken she forgot about the order! Our waitress looked frazzled and another couple asked if she was ok. So now I’m not sure what meal I’m getting and after a half hour more of a wait the food finally comes and surprise! It’s chicken piccata….the one they ran out of….the only thing they offed us was extra bread during our 2 hr wait

We recently celebrated a milestone birthday at Piccolo. Both the manager and Chef worked diligently with us to create a menu so interesting that our guests had a difficult time selecting from the wonderful options. Everything was beautifully prepared. Portions were perfect and the service was excellent, warm and professional. The feedback from our friends was all overwhelmingly positive. The room looked beautiful and I would highly recommend Piccolo Arancio for a night out or a private event, you won’t be disappointed!
