possibly the worst meal we have ever had! followed closely by the lack of service! 40 minutes from giving our order to delivery, no offer of bread, (when we queried the lack of bread we were told it was available to order, however was not on the menu - work that one out!), only a half carafe of water on the table and not refilled, and i opened our bottle of byo wine and poured it, and for that they were prepared to charge $8.00!! when we informed our waitress that the food was tasteless she told us that the 'chef' didn't use salt and pointed to the salt shaker on the table!
other reviews have been favourable, up until mid 2013. it appears they have changed their 'chef', (i use the word very loosely) - beware - christchurch deserves better, and good, simple italian food is not hard, neither is service. you just need to care about both!
piccolo - an absolute shocker!!!!!
