Ciao Italian Restaurant is a family owned restaurant. We refuse to cut corners on our food. We search the market daily to find the freshest available local ingredients. All of our chicken stock, veal stock, and sauces are made fresh daily. Our food is all made from scratch and we cook to order, and its easy to accommodate any food allergies our special diets. Our Mama's meatballs, lasagna, marinara sauce, and our house made mozzarella are recipes that are passed down through the generations. We try to maintain a very friendly, cozy and happy feel to our restaurant. we ant you to feel like you are having a meal at one of your family's house. While we want to remain family friendly we also provide you with a restaurant that also has a romantic feel. Much of the same as the Tratorias of Italy. While we maintain a high level of service we like to keep it relaxed so that you can feel comfortable.

Our server was exceptional. He went beyond what we could ask for. His suggestions were outstanding. The food was incredible from the salad to the apps and main dishes. Chicken Saltimbucca 5 stars. Chicken Lemon was as well. The antipasto for 2 was more then enough and delicious. Can't say enough about this place. Will definitely be back and spread the word!!

We always make it a point to dine at Ciao when we’re in Myrtle Beach and we were not disappointed. Tim, our waiter was personable and helpful with great suggestions. Their house Prosecco was bubbly, nuanced and went perfectly with our crab cake appetizer. Tim recommended the Chilean Sea Bass special and we both ordered it. We have sampled seafood from all over the world and I have to say that their Sea Bass with lump crab meat over angel hair pasta with crisp broccoli, peppers, tomatoes, carrots and capers was one of the best dishes we’ve ever had. The Rombauer Chard went well with the Sea Bass and was not overpriced. The Crème Brulet dessert was a delightful end to our meal. Ciao somehow keeps getting even better through the years. Great place for a fine meal in Myrtle Beach.

I've been to quite a few Italian restaurants here in Myrtle Beach. Ciao is my favorite. Quaint. Clean. Great service and staff. nd the food is delicious. The only downside is a small parking lot. I can deal with that

My husband and I found this lovely local Italian eatery extremely delicious and the service was great! Our server, Sean, was the consummate professional and very personable. We highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for authentic Italian food, ambiance and great service. If we were local, we would definitely be back with friends!

Moving to Myrtle Beach area 4 years ago we finally found a fabulous restaurant for tender veal. I ordered their specialty coconut rum margarita which was very tasty. Annie was our server she was very knowledgeable about the food and catered to our needs . My entree was veal parmesan excellent my son got spaghetti carbonara which was also fantastic. Prices were reasonable and served hot the owner came over to say hello which was nice we told her that the food was fabulous and that we would be back
