Great food. Our only complaint was there wasn’t a space left in the parking lot. That tells you something…..

We were visiting the area overnight and found this surprisingly delightful place to eat. The staff was very attentive, food was terrific and the bathroom was spotless. The portion sizes were very large. I had the angel hair pasta and shrimp. It was delicious. Packed w arugula and tomato added to the freshness. My husband had a chicken dish which he loved. The butternut squash soup was a huge bowl of flavor. My only complaint was I wasn’t a fan of the cesear dressing- too much vinegar for me.

We have been to Ciao Bella many times. The quality of the food and service can't be matched locally. Although their menu is very nice, their daily specials are incredible. We've never had fresher seafood. Everything is prepared beautifully and tastes so fresh and delicious. Service is superb. The waitstaff is so friendly and attentive. Our meals here are always superior.

Decided to drive over and try as we were staying at Resorts Casino which is only 10 min away. Everything was excellent and will definitely be back. I had Ravioli stuffed with Veal that was amazing .
