Review Summary

Ciccio Café is widely regarded as a charming, intimate destination that offers an authentic Italian dining experience away from the typical tourist crowds. Many patrons praise the restaurant for its high-quality, flavorful pasta dishes and generous portions, often highlighting the warm atmosphere and professional, attentive service. While the majority of guests consider it a local gem with excellent value, some recent experiences have noted inconsistencies in wait times, occasional issues with ingredient preparation, and discrepancies between advertised menu prices and the final bill. Despite these mixed remarks, the establishment remains a preferred choice for those seeking a tranquil, homemade meal in a welcoming setting.

Very nice small restaurant. We didn't have a reservation but they had 1 table open. Servers were all very friendly. Food & wine was great.

En plus d'un repas excellent. Ce que je remarque le plus c'est le service. Plus de trois personnes se sont présentées à notre table pour nous servir ou s'informer de nos désirs.

We arrived just as the kitchen was closing. The server checked & we were seated & allowed to order. I had veal tortellini & my husband had spaghetti with meat sauce. The tortellini's flavor was incredible- fresh sauted scallions & the perfect amount of garlic added to the cream & tomato to blend the perfect sauce. The spaghetti sauce was light & flavorful. That meat sauce was some of the best my husband & I have ever eaten. The atmosphere was cozy & romantic & service was excellent.

By far, the best dining experience of our five days in Quebec. This small Italian bistro tucked on the outskirts of Old Quebec is worth the walk/ride/drive from *anywhere*. It's a formal dining experience in a comfortable & friendly atmosphere. The waiter's wine recommendation was perfect, the spaghetti carbonara was the best I've had, & my husband's fettuccine Alfredo justifies having Olive Garden remove it from their menu as an act of defeat. Then the bill came... & we read it twice to make sure they didn't miss our dessert. We've paid twice as much for half as good. 12/10 must visit.

Excellent service! Servers were very attentive. They bring you bread to start, but we also ordered the cheese appetizer. We split a bottle of the red house wine to drink. I had a caesar salad, & my husband ordered the smoked salmon fettuccine. We shared our dishes. The servers would stop by to refill your water & wine glass often. They also add fresh pepper to your plate. We used what little French we could-always important in my opinion. But we were able to get by just fine ordering in English. The menu is in both languages.

We ordered pasta which was great & the mousse trois chocolate cake which took us straight to heaven, so so good. Rosetta served us so well :)

Restaurant sympathique mais je suis un peu déçu qu'il n'y ait pas de tiramisu dans un restaurant qui se veut typiquement italien. Les carbonara étaient ok sans plus, le veau marsala aussi. La crème brûlée moins bonne...c'est un restaurant en dehors de l'achalandage touristique ce qui est bien. Bon service, mais côté ambiance pas top...disons que tu manges & tu pars!
