    Take the recommendations from the owner and you can’t go wrong. Order the XXL board veg or meat. Deserts are the best.

    Absolutely outstanding. We had a large group (13) in town for a conference....and they cared for our group like it was completely routine. The food was outstanding, and was on par with or exceeded the quality of any meal I had in Italy last year. The ambience is amazing as well, and should not be understated. Felt like a small town cafe in northern Italy. Can't say enough about this place!

    What a treat! My family has been here before… And our expectations were BIG based on their past experiences. The food was exceptional, the service was wonderful, and the overall experience is something that we will definitely revisit again and again!! we had a table of eight people. One of us gluten-free and have lots of options for that. I know how you recommend !!!!

    While Ciccia may be a bit off the beaten path, it’s well worth the journey. You’ll be happy you did.

    Yeah, there’s no way you can mess up a lasagna, but the lasagna was disgusting.

    Staff were very friendly and checked up on us. One of the closest feel for Italian cuisine in town. The tasty dishes were not heavy and the dessert was not overly sweet. The 4% city fee was unfortunate but otherwise overall a good experience.

    Terrible service took a long time to be seated when I had reservations took, a long time for someone to come over to bring water then take our drink order and then take our food order so it was a good amount of time wasted just sitting there and for food my party was split 50-50. Some liked it some did not however the drinks were amazing.
