Ciao Italian Restaurant is a family owned restaurant. We refuse to cut corners on our food. We search the market daily to find the freshest available local ingredients. All of our chicken stock, veal stock, and sauces are made fresh daily. Our food is all made from scratch and we cook to order, and its easy to accommodate any food allergies our special diets. Our Mama's meatballs, lasagna, marinara sauce, and our house made mozzarella are recipes that are passed down through the generations. We try to maintain a very friendly, cozy and happy feel to our restaurant. we ant you to feel like you are having a meal at one of your family's house. While we want to remain family friendly we also provide you with a restaurant that also has a romantic feel. Much of the same as the Tratorias of Italy. While we maintain a high level of service we like to keep it relaxed so that you can feel comfortable.

    Sean was a great server. Food was outstanding. We had calamari, chicken, Parmesan, and tiramisu for dessert. Everything came out in a non-rushed fashion tasting hot and delicious. When I used a gift card, I did not know I could not leave a tip on there. Also, from a previous receipt that I received at this restaurant I had a five dollar coupon from Clover that the restaurant does not honor. That’s kind of weird. But it was a great experience and we will be back. Thank you.

    We did not want a chain restaurant experience for Christmas Eve; Ciao did not disappoint us. Part of the charm of this restaurant is the somewhat random seating arrangement. We were seated by the kitchen service door and next to a family with a vocal toddler so that did challenge the noise level. However, it was no where as bad as overall levels at chains. The service staff was gracious and positive. Meals were served with a tasty warm bread and pesto dipping sauce. Both entres were lightly spiced. I added "spice" to my picatta with pepper and parmesan cheese. The sauce was anexcellent balance with butter and wine. The meatball meal was moderately spiced. Ciao was just the neighborhood restaurant we hoped for.

    The weather was very cold outside and the restaurant was a little too cool inside for my wife’s comfort. It did however get warmer as the dinner progressed. However the food and waitstaff are exceptional so a great evening was truly enjoyed by all. Ciao is still our family favorite for wonderful Italian cuisine and wine.
