This place looks great! Need to come back here and actually give the food a try but I did take a bunch of photos to show people items available for sale! They have canned cherry tomatoes!!! Lots of imported items. Frozen fresh pasta. The salami and sausage look amazing!!!! Coming back soon!!!

Real Italian food ! Please try the Frank Sinatra Sandwich. Chicken Cutlet with Italian Prosciutto, Mozzarella,and Roasted Peppers.

Absolutely delicious! Made to order and prepared foods. Seriously, get your lunch sammy, and while youre there pick up meatballs and sauce, pasta, bread and wine for dinner...and maybe dessert too!

Great selection in the market, even has gluten free pasta which is so great! The deli counter is full beautiful fresh olives, cheeses, meets and veggies. Subs are great and super fresh. The grab and go’s are convenient and come with reheating instructions and they are delicious. Employees are very nice and helpful, love this place!

We discovered Piccolo by accident in this quaint 1940’s old Florida retail oasis filled with delightful personable mom and pop tiny shops. For my 50th birthday the entire immediate family flew into NYC’s Little Italy’s old Angelo’s to celebrate in their frescoed back room. That’s how much I love truly excellent Italian food!Piccolo’s new owners ( former employees of the original Bronx born owners) are SUPER fastidious and proud of their high standards in using traditional top quality ingredients. You see this especially in their perfect fresh sausage, and pizza sauces. Their sandwiches with old Italian garnishes have ALL the distinct flavors of each cheese, salami, meatball veal or chicken. Amazing from just a sandwich. Entrees are generous, ask for extra sauce on the pasta! Specials are offered each day and their large pizzas are incomparable!!! EVERYTHING is delicious!!!

Nice people and the market appears to have a decent variety. My rating is because of the bread. It was so tough that a small piece of my front tooth chipped off and my jaw hurt after a few bites. The toughest bread I’ve ever tried to eat. Not sure if they just had an off day or maybe I got old bread but I’m not going back to find out.

Meatball Parm was fresh and hot. Staff were extremely friendly. Soda was cold. Awesome place for great fresh Italian food.

The food here is great, l always stop here for lunch when Im in the area

Being elderly I didnt like the fact that my car was taken control of without warning. I recieved a great car wash but didnt like the mechanics of the overall setup...

Fabulous little place, great customer service, wonderful food!! A must visit for locals and visitors....hard to find authentic Italian food especially when your family is from Sicily!! You wont be disappointed!!

This is the best Italian deli in Sarasota. The food is amazing

Great food, friendly service & staff. Fresh bread made daily, the pizza was on point but OMG The Godfather Sandwich was amazing! Be careful with the hot peppers! #NextHomeExcellence #SarasotaFirstTimeBuyer

Google says they are open until 6, but they are not. They have not updated these hours. No parking. Don’t waste a trip because you don’t even know if they will really be open.

We have been looking for an Italian market to visit when we are in the area, and this place was awesome! We got a ton of unique items for a homemade charcuterie board.Everything we got felt high quality & fresh.

I ordered a sandwich and asked for no oil or tomato to go. When I opened the sandwich it had tomatoes and oil. I have frequented Picolas over the last several years and their sandwiches have been some of the best I have ever had. The last several times I have ordered them they have become skimpy-less and less lunch meats. I doubt if Ill be back.

Great Food but very expensive! I paid a couple pennies short of $45.00 for 3 subs

The meatballs are excellent, the salads are crispy and fresh. You can get better cannolis at Publix.

Shelves bare. We used to only shop at privately owned Italian stores. With no stock it’s impossible shop. New owners just don’t understand that type business model

Always great food an prices friendly people. Very clean place 👍

This place is great! Always nice staff and clean. Hard to find a good and real Italian deli/market around Sarasota, but Piccolos is the best! Highly recommend!

Always great food and great service. They really make you feel like family and the chef OMG the stuff he prepares amazes me. Love the place!!

Tom and I love this Italian gem in Gulfgate. From their showcase dishes to their wine selection. AND the best broccoli rabe south of NJ!

Normally there is a great selection of take home meals. This time very low stocked. Not much variety

This is a awsome place people stayed a little late for me to pick up my order,there is no Italian restaurants where Im from so Picclos makes our vacation great .staff and food AWESOME

Great service. Aronchinis look excellent. Cant wait to taste them. It all looked good. They sell pizza dough too...

Ordered the Italian and Tom Hanks sandwiches. Served on stale bread and could barely taste/see any meat or cheese on the sandwiches.But they do have friendly employees.

Very clean, deli. Sliced meat, cheese selection was good. Staff very friendly. Some tables to eat inside and enjoy some of the yummy smelling items coming from the kitchen.

It’s like walking into your Italian Grandmother’s kitchen...and pantry!!! The sausage is made and blended fresh, everything is home-cooked from scratch...the pizza...TO DIE FOR!!! Desserts: amazing. Looking to carry out? The amazing staff will hook you up and make you the hero of every party. All of the authentic Italian ingredients you need to make anything from the old country is on the shelves...complete with the extensive and varied wine selections to create the perfect pairing for your cuisine adventure! Staff is friendly, knowledgeable and incredibly helpful! Spotlessly clean. Great deals. Amazing food...total hidden gem tucked away in Gulf Gate, you gotta try it!!!

Best tomato sauce I’ve had - you need to try it for yourself! Truly delicious. Next up is the meatballs and homemade sausages- simply incredibleThe pizza is excellent - you can taste the difference because the cheese is high quality and the best you can use . One bite and you’ll agree . I think this place is a gem and easily the best I’ve had in Florida . Try for yourself then tell me I’m not wrong

Hands down the Best Italian Deli, market & Restaurant in Sarasota. New York thin style pizza is great. Also they sell individual slices. Eat in or take out.

Great hogies. Just the way I like them from Philly rolls are same as well great

I ordered a specialty product for Christmas. It was perfect!

An amazing restaurant with amazing staff! The pizza and meatballs are delicious - not to mention HUGE! Yum! Astounding quality.

Love this place!! As an Italian family from Philadelphia, I have missed the food until we found this GEM! Everything homemade with love! Wont go anywhere else!

Weve been going there since they opened. Ive never had a less than superb experience. I am particularly fond of the house made Italian sausage. It is just soooo good,, no matter how you cook it although open flame grilled is my favorite. Some of the best red sauce ever! You cant go wrong here!

Delish! Plus the smells..oh the smells👍

We been going there for some time and have loved there eggplant parmigiana! It for sure was the best around. But, our last order was, well, terrible! I don’t know what happened? It was no better than a frozen dinner. We will not give up on them, they surly deserve another try.

Great online shopping experience! Unique products listed clearly and in stock as promised..Everything was packed with care and shipped out quickly! Just what we needed! Thank you!

A must see . Like a Mulberry street Delicatessen in NY

Piccolos Deli and market has everything that I love from up North,I was about to stop eating Italian food because I couldnt find anything good...but at last I found the ultimate spot for authentic Italian food..thank you so much for all the specialty foods that I couldnt find, you guys rock👍I will never go anywhere else 😎😁👍

I had the Chicken creamy mushroom sauce with Ziti & Italian bread. The best Ive had in a long time. Ill be back soon. My wife had the Philly cheese steak on a wrap. It looked like a calzone. She loved it. Everyone should try this place, you wont be sorry.

Fabulous Valentino sandwich. Will get it again and again

Great joint with good sandwiches. The market is fine and the deli is fine, but I come for the prepared foods. Get the veal cutlet with extra balsamic. You can thank me later.

Great place to purchase Italian Food

Their meat balls are the best

Lots of good food to choose from. Always a good idea!

This small Italian market and restaurant is a treasure! Relaxed and friendly, lots of nice quality Italian food!

Excellent sandwiches but service left something to be desired. Hot food was dying in the window for a while with no one coming by to serve it. Also, spaghetti packaged to-go was filled with oil to the point that it soaked through the bag and stained my car

Great sandwich and side of meatballs.

Excellent sandwiches. But they close at 6 and the lady working was reluctant to take an order for 3 sandwiches to go, at 5:40. It elt like we were an inconvenience. She then advised that she was going to lock the door so that no one else could come in. If they want to go home at 6, they should close at 5.

Wow what can I say there food is great. The sandwiches and pizza are to die for in addition try there meals like the Chicken Parmigiana or Shimp Scampi and there Spaghetti and Meatballs all a home run. There market is fantastic. They also are a great family and there staff is amazing. Don’t be in a rush there not slow it’s just that everything is homemade to order. You will not be disappointed. My family is hooked.

Great food and service.

First time there and loved it. Loved the fresh pasta and the homemade sausage was amazing. Highly recommend. We will be back

Piccolo’s customer service ROCKS! And the food is awesome 👏

For any Italian-American looking to do a 7 fish Christmas Eve dinner, they carry scungili!

Always friendly staff. Free samples. Great imported cheeses and meats. I spend about 2.5 months in florida across the year. Shop here often. I used to buy my bread here to but they no longer carry it. Imported canned goods and other items besides what i mentioned and i have seen wonderful looking pizza there as well but i can no longer eat it so i cant tell you how it tastes. Never a bad experience though.

Top notch local authentic Italian Deli. Good selection of Italian meats and sausages, good pizza and a nice selection of Italian treats. Usually on Friday and Saturday they offer Calamari and/or Shrimp pasta along with there myriad sandwiches. Service is excellent - as long as your nice.

A true NY Italian deli!!!! If it wasnt for this place, I would have to move back up north. They offer authentic imported Italian food, meats, pasta, deserts and sandwiches. Their pizza is the best in the county. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Prices are better than reasonable.

Love this place. Im from Brooklyn and it makes me feel like home. Definitely a real authentic Italian American deli/specialty store. Staff is great as well.

Friendly staff and good italian food.

Excellent food and service

First rate Italian deli and store.

The food is awesome but not consistent. Once they burned 2 pizza pies to go. Then if you order around 530 PM weekdays, they refused to serve you for dine in because they close at 600 PM! Wow that is a first for me...

Tiramisu is 10/10 pasta is also amazing

Great selection of Italian meats and cheeses, excellent prepared meals and really nice people working there! Dont forget to try their pizza.

Really cool little Italian deli and market. I had a sandwich that was absolutely fantastic. Fresh ingredients on fabulous bread...so big that I had leftovers. The market had a lot of interesting items as well including gluten free gnocchi for my wife. Awesome place in a hidden gem of a neighborhood!

Food is delicious! Owner and the workers are very friendly and kind. As Italian i know fantastic food, and piccolos is Real Italian cusine....

Good authentic imported Italian food. Good selection of prepared foods too.If I lived close Id be there every day.This is the real deal. You have to try them.

This place brought me back to South Philadelphia! Loved everything I purchased and cant wait to go back!

Great Italian Deli. Home made products include pasta, sauce, sausage and.meatballs. Great sandwich and takeout!

Unbelievably good! We vacation to Sarasota 2/3 times per year and I eat here at least twice each time! Pizza is great, sandwiches are great, deserts, you name it!

Interesting, bought some homemade sauce, a little pricey but havent tried it yet...true Italian deli...

Good food, great service, a bit overpriced though pizza by the slice is reasonable.Alex is terrific at the counter. Shes friendly and efficient.

You will not leave here hungry. The portions are large, but best of all, the food is delicious. I had the baked zita with meatballs. My husband had the meatball sub. The sauce on both was so good. My husband said the bread was wonderful. You cant miss if you choose to eat here.

Cool spot, love the sandwiches. 3 stars because the dude with the glasses running sandwiches rudely grumbled Jesus when having to ask the customers in line for the cash register to cut through. Then heard him dropping some f-bombs in the back because someone wasnt there to get their sandwich. Left a bad taste in my mouth when it was obvious the people working there were aware of this guys attitude. The customer is the reason you are there and have a job sir.

We love this place. Whenever we are in Sarasota we stop in.

Awesome food and service. Went to there event on November 2nd. Love it. Great selections of Italian foods.

While Im staying in the area this is my go to Italian deli. Tomato and onion salad is so good.

The sandwiches my wife and I ate were delicious. The pizza the kids ate was pretty good, but nothing spectacular. Sandwiches are definitely the best thing on the menu.

This place is absolutely amazing....put it on your bucket list!

A great Italian deli where a personal touch of everything is with care.There take outs are outstanding as is there pizza.Josie &, Antonio the owners go the extra to make you happy. I being Italian love the place.

It was the best sub Ive had in Sarasota weve been here for 5 months we bought a house now I have the best deli in town will see you soon

I love to go to Piccolo Italian Market because beside having delicious food you get a big smile and a hug from the owners. I love the lasagna. Yummy yummy yummy

Love the food and the prices were good. Friendly staff too. Will go back for sure! Highly recommended. Try the Frank Sinatra sandwich

This is REAL Italian food. Yes, there is a difference between Olive Garden and REAL Italian food. The establishment is cozy, comfortable, and completely decorated in Italian attire (even the music is in Italian). The owners are right from Italy which makes the experience even richer. The prices are LOW....crazy low! I was totally blown away to see the prices. The food is just....to die for....to kill for; I am talking about some serious real Italian meats, cheeses, pastas, breads, and the list goes on and on. You will NEVER vist Olive Garden, Subway, etc. again. These people are incredible. They will for sure get my business again.

I love this place! I am able to get all my Italian products. Thank God for Piccolo Italian Market - it makes Sarasota living possible.

Absolutely worse customer service Ive ever encountered! Ordered a office lunch and during the whole order the new owner griped in the background over the phone. Apparently putting name on items so we can identify who gets what item is too time consuming. What a joke of a establishment hopefully they go out of business soon! Again the previous ownership had no issues with doing a simple request.

Best food I have ever eaten. The pizza is to die for Josephine is the best baker as well. You have to give it a try. Im an Italian from New York and I know good Italian food.

This place is fantastic! Love the bacon wrapped asparagus and they make vodka sauce thats out of this world!

OMG ! This place is fantastic authentic Italian. Must go. Entrees are great. Highly recommend. Only issues is they arent open enough (lol). Would have taken pictures but it all got eaten too quickly!

This deli is a treasure with a great selection of sandwiches that are creatively delicious. They also have a variety of home made style frozen pasta that is excellent and a little grocery with imported packaged goods from Italy.

Great food you cant find elsewhere...they got cavatelli ! The owner was a breath of fresh air...She made my day talking about food and traditions! PS ..The stuffed peppers were awesome!

Best meatball sub ever, fresh homemade bread so tasty!

Great tiramisu! Doing taste tests.

Pricey, but a lot of good stuff. Great sandwiches too !

Great little Italian market with a good assortment of deli items. Very good Italian bread. Also liked their sauce!

Excellent customer service! Very accommodating! Great food!

Great Italian deli. Pizza was fantastic. Italian beef was also great. Will definitely go back.

Great place to pick up some hard meats and cheeses.. staff was welcoming and it had a neighborhood feel.

Wow just had an awesome casual lunch with my parents. Regular pie and 2 dinner size chicken parms for about 40$. The chicken parm brought me right back to walking around the corner in brooklyn with my cousins to get food. So good will be back!
