** This tasty promo is available all day.
Do you have a case of "The Mondays?" Good news: Picco has the cure.
The downtown Larkspur restaurant now offers Half-Price Mondays. Diners can enjoy 50% off all bottles from Picco's wine list. Now you explore new flavors or enjoy a favorite bottle at an unbeatable price.
What a delicious way to toast the start of the week!
