————— About US —————

Welcome to Picco! We want your dining experience to be a great one. All of our menu items are made in house and are cooked to order. We are confident that freshly prepared foods are the best way to ensure a delicious meal. We begin with the highest quality ingredients - extra virgin olive oil, Parmigiano Reggiano & Fontina d’Aosta cheeses from Italy, fresh vegetables and meats, King Arthur Flour, imported Italian tomatoes, and pounds of Scharffen Berger dark chocolate, Vietnamese cinnamon, and fresh fruit. We make our own soup stocks, sauces, sausage, meatballs, salad dressings, ice cream, and baked desserts- it’s all homemade – right here.

A quick word about our pizza dough – the dough used in our pizzas and calzones today was started two days ago. We use a cold fermentation process starting with cold flour, yeast and water. The dough is mixed and kneaded with salt and a little extra virgin olive oil and refrigerated for two days until it’s time to use it. This slow, cold rising and fermentation process allows the dough to develop a wonderful structure, but most importantly it acquires a very rich, toasty flavor.

We choose wines and beers to pair well with our food and make an effort to support wine producers like Alois Lageder that adhere to organic and biodynamic farming methods.

So, enjoy your meal at Picco. If there is anything we can do to make your visit more enjoyable, please let Rick, Matthew or Amanda. Thank you.

We gladly accept Visa & Mastercard. There is a $10.00 minimum on all charges.

Gift certificates are always available.

"But then, everything at Picco is first-class, from the charming wine list put together by Il Capriccio's co-owner and sommelier, Jeannie Rogers, to the beautifully seasoned food, and, of course, that awesome ice cream. You may never want to go anywhere else."

— Sheryl Julian, Boston.com, September 30, 2004

"Besides the perfect pies, Picco also serves creative salads, over-stuffed sandwiches, and mouth-watering desserts like Chocolate Souffle or a Fire Roasted Apple Tart. But for the ultimate sweet tooth satisfaction, everybody at Picco screams for ice cream."

— The Phantom Gormet, March 5, 2005
