About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Good for special occasions
  • Good for business meals
The original Steve's opened in 1991 on Old Country Road in the heart of Westbury. This is the newest and third location! It is owned and operated by the Vaccaro family who has been in the restaurant business for 40 years.

Steve's Piccola Bussola is Italian dining with big flavors, quality food, and dedicated service. Steve's revels in traditional, hearty southern Italian fare, but also touches on other regions as well. The sauces taste just as good now as they did when they opened twenty five years ago. They only use the freshest ingredients.

Steve and his son Joe are driven to give their customers the best experience possible from start to finish, antipasto all the way to dessert.


Come hungry!!

    The food never disappoints! The service is great! Just love the wait staff- friendly and accommodative! If it’s very crowded on a weekend (usually) it’s a bit noisy but otherwise just fine . Love the fish specials and can’t go wrong ever with chicken or veal parm!

    Great lunch with fabulous food and my favorite Italian music in the background. Half portions at lunch are still pretty large and can be shared unless you want to take home leftovers….
