The first time I had tried this place about a year ago (pre yelp) I wasn't that impressed. So I thought I'd give it another try just for the health of it.
WOW- very impressed with everything across the board. Let's start with the 2 pasta dishes myself and significant other had.
Pesto- okay, so Picazzo's emphasizes fresh, healthy ingredients and sometimes one trades off flavor for the natural organic options. This was so not the case as the pesto pasta that had delicious home made pasta was complimented by sun dried tomatoes and goat cheese which gave a perfect balance to the pesto sauce. I did throw in some crushed red peppers for some heat and a small dash of salt, but no complaints but compliments on this dish.
Significant other had the Shrimp Scampi. Now usually Scampi is drowning in an over buttery sauce. Here again, homemade pasta with the perfect combo of olive oil and butter with lemon and capers (which I assume the good saltiness came from).
Had the usual Jack and Coke and the bartender Nick actually came over to make sure the drink was the way I liked it. The second one was even better...thanks Nick!!!!!
Will definitely be back to try their other delicious items.
Service of course was excellent, place was warm and inviting. Great job guys!
