Customer Reviews
We had a great dinner at Ciao and will definitely be back. I started with the beet salad, which was wonderful—honestly one of the better beet salads I’ve had. My daughter ordered the Caesar salad; while the lettuce wasn’t quite as cool and crisp as expected, it was still an okay salad overall. For my entrée, I had the Cacio e Pepe, and it was spectacular. Even though the pasta was a little more al dente than I typically prefer, the flavor was outstanding and I would absolutely order it again. My daughter tried the gnocchi with marinara and said it was okay. We finished the meal with crème brûlée, which was very good and a perfect way to end the night. I also had a raspberry mule (with vodka added), and it was a wonderful, well-balanced drink. Overall, a very enjoyable experience and we
Outstanding food, friendly service, nice atmosphere. Started with lobster bisque and a Caesar salad, both of which were very good. We both had a filet for our entree which were extremely tender. Finished with crème brûlée which was delicious.
Really good food, atmosphere, and vibes. Our server was friendly and attentive. We were large group with reservations. Few of us were vegetarians. Based on requests, they made vegetarian dishes for us. That was really sweet. Squash ravioli with butter sauce was amazing! Definitely recommend this restaurant to try out.
I got the bone in organic ribeye steak. The lady got the filet. Very good!
I tried the Chicken Parmesan at Ciao and overall it was a good experience, but a few things kept it from being perfect. The portion size was generous and the plate looked great when it arrived. That said, the sauce was a bit too dark and slightly bitter for my taste, and there wasn't quite enough of it. The chicken was crispy but came out darker than expected and had a slightly oily flavor. Also, the pasta on the side was a little cold, which took away from the comfort of the dish.
