Lots to say about Ciao. I initially went to their soft opening which was mediocre. Since then, it seems like they're still trying to find their footing. We had a total of 3 dishes and 2 drinks. Salad to start, which came out at the main course. I had the Seafood Fra Diavolo and the Eggplant chicken rigatoni. The fish was almost certainly previously frozen. The shrimp and calamari were good. The muscles were ok. Nothing to note. Price was very high (it was a special). Expected much more due to the price. The eggplant chicken was phenomenal but the rigatoni was not the best. The sauce was tasty. The salad, just for a basic salad was very good but VERY expensive. All in all the bill was $100, $120 with tip, which was teetering on unacceptable for the amount of food and quality. Good thing is happy hour is coming, so at least there's that. I would like to try this again but at a later date. Hopefully they find their footing.
Every time we go here, the food and service are always phenomenal! My usual is the Veal Carcioffi, but last Friday I had their special of Short Rib Pappardelle that was to die for! Definitely a great spot!
We just had the best experience at Ciao’s Sunday brunch! My friend and I came for a girl’s day and it was like a party. So much fun! Sit in the back if you don’t like loud music…food was excellent; our server was so much fun and attentive. I can’t wait to bring my hubby back.
The food has proven excellent time and time again, the owner/manager is very personable and knows the menus inside and out. This is a great restaurant when looking for an upscale casual dining experience. Great, simple wine list. Fully stocked bar. Highly recommend!
What else can I say but, ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL!! Chef Mario killed it! 10/10 will eat here again and again. Food was bright, flavor packed and complimenting ingredients a flavor explosion. Rj; the host and server extraordinaire- you were so attentive and all your recommendations were welcome! Ty for being the best of the best!!
My favorite restaurant I don't have the words in my word bank to describe how good the North Atlantic roasted salmon with light lemon sauce is (maybe divine will suffice 🤷🏻♀️). The Fettuccine Scarpariello is just fantastic. And for dessert, try the Key Lime pie (outrageously good). Overall, Ciao is the perfect place for a date, no matter what time of day, and I highly recommend checking this place out.
The short rib pappardelle is fantastic. Drinks are great as well. I really enjoyed the espresso martini. Bar service was outstanding.
The food was absolutely amazing!! Madisyn was the best waitress.She gave us the best recommendations for food. I highly recommend the chicken parm or the pasta with the ala vodka sauce! We will definitely be back here again.
Been coming here weekly for a few months now and never left here disappointed. The service is superb and the food is consistently excellent. I enjoy the fact that I sometimes will have 3 or 4 servers waiting on me and making sure my needs are met at
This restaurants food is incredibly good and freshly made on site right down to the beads. My wife had the the coffee and she said even that was fresh. This is a great small and inexpensive but still an amazing breakfast/lunch I place. It is a well m
We had tried several different Pizza variations and also pasta and meatballs. The food was excellent! Amazing flavours. One other reviewed commented that they didn't try the meatballs due to their density, you missed out, they were amazing flavour,
My dog and I love coming here early mornings. Although beware 07/30/23 blue trail is very muddy . Mud puddles as wide as the trail wear Good shoes that you don't mind getting dirty. Mattatuck forest is one of my favorite forest to unwind & look at th
Took my family here for dinner tonight and had to rush back to the house to write this review! I couldnât believe what we had found! This is a hidden gem! A true authentic culinary experience. I donât want to tell you guys everything, but please
Senor Panchos is as good as it gets for an authentic Mexican restaurant. The food was top notch, great beer selection on tap, and you will not find better service. We had a great experience and will definitely be dining here again.
Very nice campground. I was passing through on way to Boston. I travel in a 34 Super C diesel powered motorhome. I paid $65 for a back in site. Sites are nice and big with some sort of hard gravel that they put down. A nice touch is the picnic
