Reviews
Our first visit was unforgettable, thanks to Pietro, our waiter. His service was beyond exceptional. It’s rare to find someone in hospitality with such charisma, warmth, and true passion for making guests feel at home. His knowledge of Italian cuisine shines through every recommendation, and you can tell he’s proud of every dish served. The following day, we were helped by Maria, who was also wonderful, kind, and attentive — but there’s truly only one Pietro! We absolutely adore him.
Now, let’s talk about the food — because every single dish was outstanding. From the perfectly layered lasagna to the pizzas with their crispy yet airy crusts, every bite tasted like Italy. The pastas are cooked to perfection and the calamari are light, crispy, and seasoned just right. The gnocchi melt in your mouth, and the desserts and gelato? Life-changing! Each flavor feels homemade, authentic, and prepared with real love.
One detail that completely won me over was their Frozen Cosmopolitan — oh my goodness, it’s divine! You’d expect the flavor to fade as the ice melts, but it’s just as delicious from the first sip to the very last drop. Truly one of the best cocktails I’ve ever had.
The restaurant itself is beautiful — with a lovely patio perfect for a family dinner or a romantic evening out. The atmosphere has that warm, lively Italian energy that instantly makes you feel like you’re part of the family.
Between the outstanding service, incredible food, and genuine Italian spirit, Ciro’s has become my new favorite place in town. It’s not just a restaurant — it’s an experience you’ll want to repeat again and again.
If I could give more than 5 stars, I absolutely would. Bravo, Ciro’s! ❤️
GRAZIE MILLE PIETRO
We arrived around 5PM on a Sunday evening for an early dinner and had no issues getting a table for 5. There is designated Ciro’s parking along the side near Credence.
Time to Appetizers: 10 Minutes
Time to Entrees: 34 Minutes
Time to Desserts/Receipts: A while, maybe 1 hr 20 minutes? (We stopped getting service for a while…)
Complimentary bread and olive oil were brought out relatively quickly.
The food was, overall, average American-style Italian food. By that, I mean extremely sauce and carb heavy. I think it is a strange choice to have chicken parmigiana with a white sauce linguini, since it is such a contrast in sauces. Portions are excellent and huge but the food quality itself is okay at best. My chicken parm was not that crispy, and the chicken wasn’t the most tender.
I avoided sharing any other dishes unfortunately since the rest of my table had various types of nuts (including the stuffed mushroom pesto appetizer) and the gelato had several kinds of nutty flavors to potentially cross-contaminate.
Biggest downside is that we took a *long* time to get receipts. We sat around and probably finished an entire jug of water each while waiting for receipts to come.
Overall, seems okay to cater from and come with the expectation of a big meal, but there are better Italian spots in town.
Highly recommended for a relaxed evening out, a date-night that feels casual yet special, or simply when you’re craving food that tastes like it was made with heart.
Mom ordered some very specific veggies which Mario got 100% correct.
Baby did the same with her coffee and the kitchen did not disappoint.
The Memorial pork chop was crispy and on point!
Thank you Ciro’s and Mario!
