" What a delightful place! The experience I had at Ciao Ciao exceeded my expectations. We shared several appetizers and everything was delicious! The baked fontina was a highlight, oozing with flavor and served with crunchy bread. The drinks were innovative and refreshing, plus the serving staff was attentive without being intrusive. The environment made it a perfect spot for an evening with friends. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was very excited to try Ciao Ciao after hearing so much buzz about it. While the cocktails indeed lived up to the hype, the food left me a bit disappointed. I ordered the shrimp fra diavolo, which sounded amazing on the menu, but the shrimp were quite small, and the dish lacked the robust flavor I was anticipating. Despite the disconnect with the food, the atmosphere was lively enough to keep our spirits high, and the staff were friendly. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was really looking forward to trying Ciao Ciao based on some reviews, but my experience was a bit mixed. While the drinks were top-notch and the atmosphere was lively, my pasta dish was underwhelming. It looked beautiful, but the taste didn't match the presentation. Service was decent, but we had to wait longer than expected for our food. I'd maybe give it another try, but it wasn't what I hoped for. " (*Curated Review*)

" Ciao Ciao is adorable! Perfect for a cozy dinner with friends or family. The cocktails we had were impeccable and unique. I enjoyed trying their special seasonal drink which was a delightful surprise! The staff ensured we had a great time, and the ambiance made it all feel special. I would love to come here more often. " (*Curated Review*)

" The atmosphere at Ciao Ciao is absolutely fantastic; it combines a modern yet cozy vibe. However, both my partner and I found the food to be quite basic and lacking flavor. Though the presentation was fine, the taste was forgettable. On the plus side, the drinks were really well done. It could use a little more finesse in the food department to match the quality of the drinks! " (*Curated Review*)

" Ciao Ciao is my new favorite spot for cocktails! I went with a friend to check it out, and we were not disappointed. The creativity in mixology was evident in every sip. We enjoyed a charcuterie platter along with some drinks and loved every element presented. The service was on point - attentive and friendly! My only complaint was that I wished I’d had more time to explore their full menu, we'll definitely revisit soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Ciao Ciao is such a fun place to gather with friends. The music and atmosphere create a wonderful vibe that makes you want to stay longer. I ordered the shrimp cocktail and it was fresh but a bit on the small side. However, the flavors were spot on! It's definitely worth dropping by just for their amazing drinks! " (*Curated Review*)
