Piccolo Cantina Bay - Mexican restaurant in Locust Valley - 2 Bayville Ave, USA

Quaint little 8 table restaurant serving up some sizable and authentic mexican dishes. Doesn’t hurt it also offers a beautiful beach front view of Long Island sound. The cocktails are prepared well, appetizers fresh and if I must say, the carne asada is mind blowing good. I’ve been coming here for few years now and the friendly atmosphere makes it all worth while. It’s a bit out of the way, but trust me, they’re worth the trip.

A group of us were out for a Bachelorette weekend and our bride wanted Mexican food. We were so happy to have found this spot. Everyone left satisfied with the food and service. The food was authentic and delicious and our waitresses were ON POINT! The drinks were great. Everything came out in a decent time; we didn't wait too long. I do suggest calling and making a reservation especially if your group is big since it's a nice cozy restaurant. We were a group of 7 and called ahead of time. Our table was ready for us when we walked in so we didn't have to wait to be seated. It was a great experience from the phone call to make the reservation to arriving and enjoying our dinner. If I'm ever back in the area I will definitely be returning.

Friendly service, however our waitress forgot the sides I ordered, and we were still charged for it. (My husband didn't notice I hadn't gotten it and paid the bill that charged us for it). Food was pretty mediocre and bland, but maybe that's because I'm from Southern California and am used to authentic Mexican. Haven't found good Mexican in NY since we moved here, but I'll keep trying. I will say the mozzarella sticks were the best I've ever had, and the view of sunset on the water was beautiful.

Very Good! Food was fresh and authetintic as well as the desert. Margaritas were awesome.Great service. Nice view of sunset. Recommended.

Great local spot. Hidden Gem. Great food. Excellent service. Huge portions. Extremely delicious. Excellent view of the sound.

Yum!! This place was recommended to us by our friend who lives in Bayville. She told us specifically that we HAD to eat here, because food from anywhere else would be less than as good from here. So we took her word for it and we were pleasantly satisfied and happy, she was right! We all loved our three dishes including chicken and veggies, quesadilla, and enchiladas. We also got a delicious pitcher of sangria! The food and drinks were worth it! Would certainly come back :). Don’t forget to pair this restaurant with either the beach across the street or golfing next door! So fun!

Amazing food! Wonderful views especially during sunset. If you happen to be in the area, it is definitely a must.

Very expensive for the quality of service and food. Drinks were really soft most ice and juice. The food was ok but the presentation and the dishes were all plastic. I don't think we will be back.
