Piccola Bussola Ristorante - Huntington
A trip to Piccola Bussola will remind you of mama's home cooking both in quality & quantity. With oak paneling, stained glass wall sconces, tones of beige, & forest green & cinnamon carpeting that creates a comfortable ambiance. Our handsome bar is a great place to enjoy a drink before you are seated at this popular restaurant. Chef Felix Girasaki, from Peru, started at La Bussola (our sister restaurant) in 1982. He was trained by owner Pasquale Lubrano, & is now the chef at Piccola Bussola. The wait staff is totally professional, & many of them have been with the restaurant since it opened. All the selections on the menu are served family style on a platter rather than a plate. Desserts are as large as the entree selections! Our tiramisu is believed by many to be the best on Long Island. Wines are reasonably priced with an excellent house Chianti available. A steady clientele of devoted regulars, & families that enjoy casual dining, make Piccola Bussola a favorite.
"It was Mother's Day and they were VERY busy. Our table was ready when we arrived. Our waiter was a little distracted, don't know if it is his normal behavior - but it still worked well for us. The food was very good. Considering it was extremely busy, they all did a very good job. Will return...."

"My only problem was, share...it was great but through me off a bit. Chicken/artichoke a little dry not much labor. Veal was outstanding as well as our fish choice...desserts were sinfully delicious. All in all our second time here and would definitely return."

Review 7 for Piccola Bussola Ristorante - Huntington
"Unfortunately, the evening we went to dine for the first time, there was apparently 2 very large birthday groups with multiple aged children as well as adults. This was surprising to us as the menu was quite adult and quite delicious and not what would be considered what children would enjoy. The service and wine, etc., was friendly and good."

Review 10 for Piccola Bussola Ristorante - Huntington
"We have been many times before, unfortunately they were off, very off, the order was wrong, eventually got the correct food it was burnt, also the waiter overcharged 10.00 for one of the dishes. I called the owner the next day to confirm that I was overcharged he just said sorry, but did not offer to refund my money. The restaurant was not busy at 7:30 on a saturday night now I know why, Bad!!! Will be off my list :("

Review 11 for Piccola Bussola Ristorante - Huntington
"The staff was really nice, however the restaurant was loud with only a few people in it. They brought us the wrong drinks and room had a funky smell to it. Not recommend for a V-Day dinner."

Review 12 for Piccola Bussola Ristorante - Huntington
"Everything was very good except the food which was mediocre. I had lobster ravioli which was unpleasantly fishy tasting. The veal which my companion ordered was like a packaged frozen entree."
