I've been twice now, I love the atmosphere of Ciao. Neighborhood restaurant, exposed brick, the old building etc. The consistency of the food needs some improvement. First visit everything was great, pasta was cooked perfectly, fish tasted good, the tiramisu was excellent. Second visit I had pasta (penne I think) with salmon in a cream sauce. The pasta was way overcooked, limp, tasteless. The entire dish was really kind of bland. We had arrived kind of early on a Saturday night, we were the first table seated in fact. So the bottom line is I like the prices, the full bar, the servers, but hope that the next time I go the food will be up to the test.
