Best Pizza I've ever had – Last year my roommate and I came across this place completely by accident as he was craving fish taco's (a dish they serve in summer) and a quick google search told us that Picco's was one of the only places to serve them. After a quick walk to the south end we were surprised to find a pizza place. Unfortunately, they had stopped serving taco's for the year but we didn't want to leave empty handed so we tried the pizza. I could eat pizza every day forever and not get sick of it, and I can honestly ... read more

Best South End Pizza – Pizza and ice cream are my two vices so a place with both is an easy will with me. But the relaxed atmosphere and friendly staff don't hurt either! I always get the Alsatian: onions, shallots, garlic, crème fraiche, bacon and gruyere but get mushroom instead of bacon since I don't eat meat. YUM! In the summer they have very tasty lemonade too!

balanced flavors, focussed menu, attentive service – I cam in with a group of about 15 people. It was a thursday night at 10:00pm. The hostess was pretty rude, I am not sure if she was nervous about having such a large group there or if she is generally unfriendly to customers. After we were seated our drink orders were take. The waitress answered all our questions and had no problem splitting up the group and making 2 separate checks. The food did take a little while to come out of the kitchen but not too long. And it was w... read more

Delicious – This place has possibly the best pizza I've tried. Very good sauce and thin crust. Their other menu choices are good as well, especially their meatball/chicken parm sandwiches. I did find it strange that you have to order cheese as an extra for a calzone. Shouldn't cheese be included, and you just choose which one you like? You get to choose 3 stuffings for the calzone, and one of them is the cheese. So be aware that if you don't pick a cheese, you'll end up with bread full of whatever else you choose. Unfortunat... read more

Delicious pizza!!! – My friend and I were in the area and wanted a nice place to eat, but didn't want to pay a fortune like most of the restaurants in the South End. We decided on Picco after reading reviews on CitySearch. It had a very cozy atmosphere. The Margherita pizza was delicious! We got a small which was perfect for two girls and a salad each (which was also tasty). The total came to $25, which I thought was a good price. We will definately return (I really want to try the ice cream next time)!!

funky, colorful, good food – Overall very good--delicious appetizers and soups--arugula salad disappointing--service friendly and prompt--fun place to eat with artsy, homey ambience--will go there again and try other items--ice cream a must!

Great overpriced pizza – This place is underneath where I live, so it doesn't get more convenient. However, the pizza is overpriced, but dilicious. It's a great place to go on a Saturday night after a movie.

Really Good Food, Slow Service at Times – I've been to Picco's numerous times. Each time, my experience has been about the same. The food is consistently very good. The pizza is probably the best bet (I recommend you tell Picco's to undercook it). The meatball sandwich is quite good...it has a little kick to it. If the crabcakes are on the Specials, definately grab it. I've never had a disappointing meal here (most of the time "very good"...with an occasional "fair"). Definitely save room for the ice cream. It is top notch. ... read more
