  We’ve been going for about 8 months now, and have loved everything we’ve tried! He rotates some dishes and has a few constants. Tonight we started with a hamachi crudo, shared the hanger steak with Brussels sprouts for our main, and just felt like having the super crispy potatoes he makes. We brought a chicken parm with Sunday sauce home for our daughter. The food and staff are always top notch, and he’s slowly but surely making headway on the interior. They just remodeled the side dining area and it’s much improved! We will continue to support them, though this is a selfish endeavor as we love high caliber food!

  Picone is always consistently tasty, they have quickly become our go to for Italian food. They take chances with different flavors, and usually hit it of the park. But always keep safe items on the menu for the picky eaters. If the guava cream cheese empanada is available, be sure to nab it!

  We dined there on a Saturday evening. We beat the rush coming in. We ordered chicken picata ( spelling) and the special with the steak rare. Our order took approximately 35 min to come out and the chicken entree was cold and the sauce on the steak slightly burnt. We ate our meal as business was picking up. We ordered a chicken parmasean and dessert to go which took approximately 40 minutes to be prepared. Im unsure if they were short handed that night, but we waited patiently. I thought the main lady seating everyone was very warm and informative. The service was good and the food was ok. It was kind of loud in the restaurant, but they were getting busier as the night progressed. Also I thought the food was a bit pricey. It was not the best experience, but it was not a terrible experience. I would rate them somewhere in the middle overall.

  Picone at 702 S Elm St, Denton, TX 76201 I really don't even know how to pronounce the name of this place but you should be here right now eating 😋. I followed them on social 📱media and it's so interested in seeing the guys bring out a different entree option throughout the week. I got in here to enjoy the brisket macaroni and cheese and the smashburger with them side of potatoes. That I literally devoured before I could even get home. My only regret today is I didn't order a triple order of those potatoes. Next time I go there I definitely want to eat inside and try more options. This is instantaneously ❣️ one of my favorite places to go to in this city.

  I finally managed to check out Picone after hearing all the buzz, and I can completely understand why people call it their favorite spot for Italian-American comfort food. The high praise for the menu is mostly spot-on, though the space is definitely on the smaller side. The service, however, is excellent—warm, quick, and attentive, making the dining experience fantastic. The true star of the show has to be the Garfield Lasagna; it’s rich, huge, and truly deserving of the hype. Equally impressive were the crispy potatoes. Whether they’re served smashed or fried, they are outstanding and I wish the kitchen would bottle that seasoning or white drizzle. For classic Italian, the pasta dishes are generous, often coming with a hefty portion of chicken, making it a reliable choice. The highly-lauded Smashburger was solid, but maybe not quite the "WOW" experience others described. It’s certainly a great burger, but given how incredible the lasagna and the specials are (which are always worth checking out), I’d lean towards their pasta or following their social media for the rotating non-menu dishes. This place is absolutely worth a detour if you’re craving top-tier comfort food.
