Piccolino
Wine Spectator 'Best of Award of Excellence' wine list (8 years running) with one of Ukraine's largest Franciacorta collections; tableside Parmigiano-wheel pasta service
Cozy, lively, and a touch romantic—ideal for date night or a long, convivial dinner in Kyiv. Service is attentive without fuss, with Italian comforts, solid veggie choices, and a friendly wine list. Book for evenings; it fills quickly after 7:30.
Piccolino is part of the La Famiglia restaurant group, located on Olesya Honchara 67 in central Kyiv. It's a long-standing Italian fine-dining venue (4.4 on Tripadvisor, ranked among the top 5 Italian restaurants in Kyiv) with a monthly-changing thematic menu featuring artichokes, mozzarella, black truffle, and seafood. The signature Piccolino pasta is finished tableside in a Parmigiano Reggiano wheel by the chef. The wine program is the headline draw — 8 consecutive years of Wine Spectator's Best of Award of Excellence and one of Ukraine's largest Franciacorta collections. Hours are 11:00–23:00, and the room reads as intimate and romantic, aligning with the curator's notes.
