We have eaten here many times over the past five years. The service and food remain very good to excellent. You can order the same menu at the bar or in the restaurant.

My business colleagues and I enjoyed Piccolo Arancio for dinner. We each had a different meal and everyone was very pleased with the food.

When we arrived (with reservations) we were promptly seated by the hostess, and it was all downhill from there. The room filled up over the next half hour and by the time our meal arrived everyone else (4-5 tables) had... More

Same owners and similar cuisine to Peppercorns, itself one of the best restaurants in Greater Hartford. If you find Farmington more convenient and want a sophisticated urbane meal this is your place.
