    We have been to Pizzicata a number of times. We are not regulars at any place. But the Chef's Special under Pasta was disappointing. It was long on pasta and very short on meat. Serving it on a plate was not quite right. A bowl would have been better. We will return for it's good pizza and other dishes.

    Great place to dine in general or for a special occasion! We celebrated my husband’s birthday and the entire dining experience was exceptional with the food being delicious! The lobster with pasta was outstanding with plenty of lobster. The chicken Parmesan did not disappoint as well. Our server was great although a little busy towards the end of our dinner. Highly recommend!
