Visited La Piccola for lunch today as birthday treat for my wife. Treat is the right term. Excellent in every respect - convenient location, lovely setting, superb food ,nice ambiance and terrific ,pleasant service . My wife’s ravioli was spot on and my hake was exceptional. Having now found such a special place will ensure we become regular customers.

Food was ok, and atmosphere busy.We were only offered one drink despite having empty glasses most of the time were sat a second wasn’t offered. I’d also mention the waiter took my empty plate as I took my last mouthful he was that fast! No way didn’t they notice we had empty glasses. Tried to get their attention but not much success.Found it strange how a chef came out of the kitchen wearing rubber gloves, go in the till handle a load of cash and return to the kitchen… hope he put fresh gloves on, cash is filthy. Bet he wore those gloves all evening ?!It was as much as the waiter could do to speak to us. Didn’t feel welcome at all. Glad to leave and get a drink as I was so thirsty. We may retry in the summer and see if it improves.

What a lovely meal to have on Boxing Day. The staff were friendly and very helpful. Highly recommend here for a meal when you are in Monmouth.

So far my first few days of Welsh food was disappointing so decided to try Italian. The pizza was thin and nice and the pasta was flavourful!Just very grateful we finally found a place that’s flavourful than pub food ♥️Reasonable price as

My meal was lovely my parents was covered in oil, curdled eggs and disgusting the oil dripped out the bowl of her spaghetti carbonara. Manager said we couldn't do anything about it as no one checked on our food so wouldn't recommend eating here again.

Lovely independent Italian restaurant. Recommend booking. Beautiful atmosphere. Monmouth Town centre. Good friendly customer service. Good value for money. Excellent quality food.

Great place on the High Street. Much bigger on the inside than it looks from outside. Great atmosphere, excellent staff with just the right level of attention. The quality of the food was excellent too. An extensive selection of very authentic Italian cuisine. Not expensive considering the quality of the food. We'll definitely be going here again!

Good and bad points. Food was awesome but one person in my party had pizza, I tried a piece and it tasted chemically, not nice at all. Atmosphere was great but on a winters evening at the top with cold air blowing in and to have an air conditioning unit on the floor blowing straight at me was far from ideal. Would I go back again? Yes, but I would not sit upstairs towards the back and I definitely will not order pizza again. The other mains and starters were perfect.
We traveled from wales to meet family and we booked for this restaurant and omg I’m so glad we did the food was delicious and the desserts to die for great portions too. Staff were friendly and lovely if we ever come back to Monmouth we definitely return here

Nice ambience, nice and busy but food quality let it down and a tad overpriced. I had the breaded goats cheese salad as a starter and wasn’t very nice, frozen and deep fried but the inside had a strange consistency. Staff very attentive. Sadly I won’t rush to go back, hopefully it was an off night for them

Brilliant waiter who whisked us through so that we didn’t miss our concert. Food delicious too! The place was very busy with a great vibe.

I booked lunch here for two of us. From greeting us on arrival to service throughout our visit, it was extremely slow. The food was delicious and the surroundings attractively decorated.
