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.

Excellent restaurant italien, après Paris & Toronto, un véritable italien des antipasti au desserts en passant par les pino grigio. Le veau est extra, les pâtes parfaites. Merci à vous de partager votre cuisine pour un prix abordable

The bread was served cold. I read a review about that before going & the owner rebutted that the bread is not. Well, it was. But that's fine. If the rest of the meal was good, I would still be positive. It was not.

The wine selection was good & fairly priced, but that's where the dinner experience should have stayed. The food was mediocre. The reviews promised good food & portions. The carbonara was bland & more alfredo than carbonara. Spaghetti with cream & cheese. Nothing flavorful. Not creamy, just sticky. No egg & not fresh pasta. I am sure it came from a jar. The pasta was dried & Costco quality. Over cooked. The Ossobuco was average served with very bland egg noodles. Save yourself the disappointment. Find another place to go.

I was responded to by the owner but instead of trying to improve the food quality, simply insists it's my negative reviews. Should have looked deeper as there are many positive reviews. Saw similar tact in other responses, & the place has great potential, but not there currently. Focus on fixing the food & you'll have a wonderful restaurant & get positive reviews.
