Piccolo Buco Roma - set mere steps from Rome's famed Trevi Fountain - is where Cooper's Hawk Founder, Tim McEnery, first discovered Chef Luca Issa and his wonderful pizza. The ingredients were deceptively simple: creamy, indulgent mozzarella mingled with a bright and bold tomato sauce. But it was the extraordinary, tall crust - crisp on the outside yet cloud-like at the center - that won his heart. He couldn't wait to introduce America to a pizza this special!

    This was our first time - decided to go someplace new for Christmas Eve. Everything we had was absolutely outstanding. The Godfather Old Fashioneds, hot, fresh bread, polenta with meatballs for appetizer, Pollo Positano and Giambotta Alla Toscana entrees accompanied by a glass of Saldo Red Blend. Absolute perfection - can't wait to go back.
