Picano's

Picano's Restaurant Review:

Picano's is the kind of place you like to have in your back pocket when entertaining out-of-town visitors. Consistency is a benchmark at this shrine to Italian cuisine, as seen in the pollo Siciliano, a dish of paper-thin, sautéed-golden chicken with amogio sauce (Italian-style salsa). Substitute pickerel for the chicken; it’s nearly as good. The traditional Italian way is the rule here: main courses are preceded by soup or salad and served with a side of pasta and a selection of warm rolls. We like that you can mix and match pastas and sauces to your appetite's content. Have linguine with palomino sauce topped with house-made sausage one visit; the next, order rigatoni with Alfredo sauce and anchovies. All pasta dishes are served with light sauce, but additional sauce is available upon request at no extra charge. Premium wines by the glass, half carafe and carafe complement the food.
