" While I didn’t enjoy the pizza much, I found the pasta to be superb! The marinara sauce was rich and delicious. Would recommend trying their house salad as well. A nice atmosphere, though I wish they had better seating options. " (*Curated Review*)

" This has become my new favorite restaurant! The atmosphere is perfect for date nights. Everything we tried was spot on in terms of authenticity. The margherita pizza was the best I have had in California! I'll keep coming back for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" I stumbled across Ciao Pasta by accident while walking around and I’m so glad I did! The meal started with delicious focaccia, and I had a shrimp scampi that was delicious! The service was quick, and the atmosphere was perfect for a casual dinner. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a find! Ciao Pasta Trattoria has become my favorite spot for Italian food in the area. The focaccia bread they start you off with is some of the best I've ever had. The pasta dishes are freshly made and simply delicious, especially the Ciao Pasta itself. The atmosphere is lovely, perfect for a night out. I highly recommend it! " (*Curated Review*)

" A cozy Italian restaurant that turned out to be a nice surprise. Their pastas were well-prepared. The only downside might be the wait times during peak hours, but I managed to enjoy my meal thoroughly. The bread with olive oil is a must-try before diving into the main course! " (*Curated Review*)

" During my last visit, I wasn't overly impressed with the food. While the ambiance was charming and the service friendly, my agnolotti was underwhelming. It lacked flavor and the sauce was too thin. Not my favorite Italian restaurant but perhaps I'll give it another chance in the future. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Ciao Pasta with some friends and we all enjoyed our meals. I had a simple spaghetti with marinara that hit the spot. The service was attentive but not too much. The atmosphere was lively which added to a fun dining experience. Will definitely be going back. " (*Curated Review*)
