"Expensive doesn't equal quality"

5.3 Cuisine 2 | Service 6 | Atmosphere 8

The overall experience was average. The menu however was populated with dishes that were very simply prepared.

Well located in a beautiful building. Relaxing background music with exceptional service. The food is creative and well presented. The starter was not super great, but the main course and dessert was fantastic. Thank you for a wonderful evening.

About Piccolo Mondo

Cuisine: Fine Dining, Italian

Flair, adventure and culinary delight are at the heart of the menu at the Piccolo Mondo Restaurant. Designed not to just feed the appetite and appease the taste buds, several of the dishes bring with them a visual signature never seen before.

“The clientele of the Piccolo Mondo, and in fact the Michelangelo hotel in general, is so diverse that we have to create a very delicate balance between food that is fashionable, contemporary yet modern, food that has a wow factor, must be mainly food that is tasty and appeases all our clienteles’ discerning palates,” says, executive chef Trevor Boyd at the Michelangelo Hotel.

The menu captures nuances of all the components a menu needs to set us apart from other restaurants out there. “We believe that our new menu will cater for not only the business weary traveller and the erstwhile tourist, but also the many visitors we see popping in for a meal on their visit to the Nelson Mandela Square.”
