A most pleasant atmosphere greets you at the door. This is not a fancy place, but very warm, comfortable and welcoming. I ate at the bar with a colleague. We were in town on business. Just looking for a place to relax and have a good meal. We sat at the bar. The bartender, Wesley put on a show as he effortlessly mixed a wide variety of exotic looking drinks while checking in with all of his patrons at the bar. The food was excellent! I had a chicken parm dinner with pasta. It was delicious! I'm definitely going back here in the future!

To like Slab pizza, you have to like Sicilian pizza because it's very doughy. However, they also have thin-crust pizza, which I unfortunately realized after I ordered. I got the cheese and tomato 1-lb 'slab', and it was good -- nice flavor, crust, and sauce -- but too doughy for me, which is personal taste and no reflection on Slab. Next time I'll get the thin-crust. Nice atmosphere, good service, a few tempting craft cocktails and a great selection of Maine craft drafts. The 70's soul/R&B music that was playing was a nice 'blast from the past' -- don't hear much of that these days.

We love this place; going here since it opened. No pretentions. Home made pastas, dynamite sauces, super friendly down home atmosphere, open kitchen and all food fresh. Try the venison ragu if they have it; done over wonderful pasta like a bolognaise which itself ain't bad at all. Simple, well done and to the point

Given the ambience and presentation of authenticity, Solo does not deliver like they should. On arrival, I made a Rez but was told Open Table accepted it, but "we're not seating and in this area, so we don't really have a table". However, she did end up seating us in that area, not a great introduction. Olive oil does not compliment sourdough bread that tastes like rye, and the olive oil could be better quality. The heirloom tomatoes, prosciutto and fresh mozz were delicious. The eggplant was pressed too hard and was really tough. It also needed more sauce. The one pasta dish on our table was over cooked. I will say the strip steak was perfectly cooked med-rare and really delicious. The bread sticks we're not light and crisp, they seemed mildly stale. The focaccia was odd and the cookies were rather tasteless and just crumbled apart when you tried to eat them. You just want a really good piece of semolina bread with Italian food, and perhaps almond floured cookies. I know semolina is not popular in northern Italy, but even plain crusty Italian bread would be better. Loved the wine list. Plenty of Italian wines to choose from.

Cozy place in a very foodie city, has been here a long time, inside spiffed up with warm and welcoming interior. Last time here was over 20 years ago. Expensive very good Italian wine list. Super service from all three of the young women who had anything to do with taking care of us. Food average; one of the chicken saltimbocca was so dry Mrs had hard time eating it. They very nicely brought out a tiramisu to her on the house as they perceived she wasnât too happy with the main course, on the house. All in all a pleasant evening with very good old friends.

Modern Italian restaurant with cuisine inspired from the humble foods of Southern and Central Italy that incorporates local Maine products.
Reviewed By ScottH900
This tiny restaurant is a wonder. Just 8 tables and a half dozen seats at a bar--it would be full with about 25 guests total--Piccolo does it right on all levels. The 2 servers doubled as bartender, making among other things generous and great Negronis. Every bite savored by my wife and me was near perfection, starting with the crazy good warm olives. The chef clearly has the time to give every plate attention, including the outrageously delicate peekytoe crab salad I had. Just a few simple ingredients--corn kernels, lettuce, crab, paper-thin shaved radishes, a sweet corn sauce and a basil oil ring around it all--and it was divine. We split a pasta dish of housemade cavatelli in an unctuous, deeply flavored lamb neck ragu. Amazing. Our entrees were also spot on, including my black bass with crispy skin and buttery, melt in your mouth flesh. All sauces, vegetables, and sides show a lot of love and display the fruits of long, slow, patient cooking. Our servers were great and had significant wine knowledge too. This was a most memorable evening! Cannot recommend it enough.

This is Portland's "place to go" for all the sorts of ingredients that you may be less likely to find in regular big supermarkets. Charcuterie. Cheeses. Pastas. Sauces. You get the idea. If that's what you are looking for, check out Micucci Grocery. We bought a lot.

Waiter was extremely nice, but had multiple tables and was running to accommodate tables. It appeared they were very understaffed for the lunch crowd. Food was good, but longer wait than usual. I go here about 1-2 times monthly and the food is generally consistent and tasty, as it was with this visit.Thank you!
