Went for a quick meal, with good memories from our last visit almost a year ago. We ordered Caesar salad and a a grilled corn Pizza to share. The salad was good but the pizza rather too crisp and overdone and not tasty - to be avoided. We then had a Chocolate Mousse Cake which was moist and probably the best part of the meal.
Our server, Ashley, was on the ball and attentive. The place itself is noisy and needs updating.

After several years of not being here (for no particular reason) we've come back for lunches and outdoor dining. Food and service so good! Great drinks, love the raw bar and some of the veggie (lighter) appetizers. Had the crab spaghetti last time and it wasn't too heavy or rich - just delicious. Really enjoy being back!

Highly recommended, I'm allergic to shellfish and I was interested in the appetizer but many of those are with seafood so I'm always scared about that, we asked the server if they can do it but with chicken the answer was yes was so yummyyyy I think they should add it to the menu, delicious. The sangria was very strong, it wasn't the best, but is a nice place and a very pleasant service.

Tasty food and apps, but the wait-time for your eats is ridiculous. Waited almost an hour for 3 appetizers and more than 30 minutes for desert!
Beer selection is mediocre at best. There are far too many breweries in RI that deliver very good brews, and all they have on tap is Revival (ehh).
Expensive for what you get and gave to wait for.
Server was the only highlight.

The food: We went for restaurant week and had the lunch menu. Ordered the stuff clams and eggplant goat cheese for apps. The stuffed clams were flavorful and tasty, but the eggplant was a bit bland and soggy. For the entree we got the lemon parmesan chicken which actually was fried chicken on a bed of arugula. The chicken was much overcooked, a tiny thin piece that was dry and chewy. Not a fan! The fish tacos were basic, wish there was more sauce and flavor. The dessert was my favorite and the raspberry sorbet was delicious. Also loved the cappuccino chunk gelato, very fresh and creamy with tons

A few years ago I gave a five star review, but tonight was a very off night. First, the good news-the food was delicious. We ordered an entree and a special. Both were well prepared and we enjoyed it all. The issue was the service. They were not expecting a large crowd and were very understaffed. Our drinks took over 15 minutes to arrive and each course was slow to come. Normally I don't mind a relaxing meal, but this was just slow. They forgot to put in a second drink order, took half an hour to refill water (and only refilled one) and I finally brought the check to the bar when we just

Ordered the mini stuffies. The "stuffing" was essentially buttered breadcrumbs. No chorizo and minimal clams. No "form". Yuck.
Went to order the pizza- advertised outside and told to us by the waitress- it was half off. Ordered it- told it was sold out. Why tell us about it then???
Service was ridiculously slow- and it was mid day and not busy.
Ordered oysters. We finished the stuffies. Never came. Waitress asked if we wanted dessert or coffee. I told her we'd like the oysters that were ordered.
Definitely won't return. Too many other great restaurants in Providence

We went for Restaurant Week during lunch and were definitely happy we did! I would probably never have come here just because there are so many restaurants around and it's all street parking and frankly , it doesn't catch your eye as you walk or drive by. ... but the lunch menu for Restaurant Week drew us in . We got there just as it opened on a weekday at 11:30. The server was friendly and informative and brought us drinks quickly as we looked through the lunch menu. (It was almost the entire dinner menu!!! Lots to chose from)
For the Appetizer, I ordered the Melanzana Fritta Tower

Pizzico was my Restaurant Week choice and we were very happy. I have driven by many times and to be honest, the restaurant name/sign thing never inspired me to visit but now I know better.
The staff was very friendly upon arrival and the decor is charming. I really thought it was a nice space. Our waiter, Aaron maybe, was great. We both wanted the same thing and he explained that this meal was not often what people expected and we both ended up switching our main.
The food was amazing. We both had fried oysters to start. I am still thinking about them. The batter was light and crisp. They

It's been a few years since I've visited this establishment. Since then, I no longer eat meat. Was wondering if I could have anything on the menu. They have a few veggie apps and entrees. The bar has changed for the better. More high end liquors and libations. The amaro selection is very nice. Andrea at the bar is gracious and welcoming. The expansion is great as well. Lots of room to spread out. Don't miss the appy hour all day Sunday and weekdays 4-6!

I've never tried goat cheese but I decided to be adventurous and try the gamberetti e gnocchi. Delicious! My husband got the pollo fagioli and it was also excellent. Great place. The food is good, service is fast. I have to say I was most impressed during my first visit. I had 7:00 reservations. We arrived 15 minutes early so we waited at the bar. The owner insisted on buying me a glass of wine for having to wait 15 min (I was early for the reservations). Overall impressed with the service all around great place. We will be regulars.

I've walked by pizzico at least once a week since moving into the area. I've been dying to try it out so thought a celebration dinner was as perfect a time as any!
My boyfriend and I started out with a RI classic - stuffies! The fillings were so delicious. I do wish that they weren't miniature and were full size.
I ordered the gnocchi for my main meal. It had goat cheese in it. It was such a nice end of summer dish. It wasn't too heavy like most gnocchi's are.
My only complaint with pizzico is the price. It's definitely overpriced for the food and service but

I have been dining at this restaurant for many years now. In Providence it has been a staple; - for dinner one could always expect a sound meal with excellent service.
They have recently changed their menu, the theme appears to be less consistent with what they had previously and (to my disappointment) several of their really outstanding items have been removed. Their cocktail 'Impeared' no longer appears on the menu but one can order it, it is superb. Their signature "Assortimento' is now no longer available. The service remains consistent and the food while on the
