" The best thing about Ciro is the staff—very friendly and always bring smiles to the dining experience. The food is comforting, and while some dishes shine, others might be overlooked. I had the baked ziti and it was delicious! I will definitely come back for the service. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had dinner here with my family and it was quite nice. The ambience is very homey and the staff was welcoming. While they had a range of authentic Italian dishes, some were more flavorful than others. Overall, a satisfactory experience with decent prices. " (*Curated Review*)

" We recently celebrated a birthday at Ciro, and it was one of the best dining experiences we've had! From the moment we walked in, the staff was welcoming. I ordered the lasagna, and it was fantastic—rich sauce and generous portions. Though we had to wait a bit for our food, the quality made it worth it. We ended the night with a stunning lemon dessert that was the highlight! We'll definitely be back. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’m a bit torn about this restaurant. The food was good, but the prices are on the higher side for what you receive. The marinara sauce was tasty, but honestly, I expected a bit more from their main courses. The service was adequate, but nothing exceptional. " (*Curated Review*)

" The decor at Ciro sets a lovely scene, but the food left me wishing for more. While my pasta dish was decent, it lacked the hearty flavors I was hoping for from an Italian restaurant. The service was friendly, but a bit slow which made the wait for a simple meal feel longer. Overall, not the worst experience, but there are better options in town. " (*Curated Review*)

" Finding authentic Italian cuisine can be tough, but Ciro hit the mark for me! The mushroom risotto was creamy and simply divine. Service was attentive without being intrusive. You can feel that they take pride in every dish. Be prepared for a great value meal with a nice glass of wine. I would absolutely return for another dinner soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a lovely Italian restaurant! The osso bucco was fantastic and perfectly cooked. The ambiance was cozy, making it a great spot for dinner. The dessert, cannoli, was delightful and the staff was very friendly. I would definitely be back here on my next visit to Athens! " (*Curated Review*)
