Great place for authentic Italian food. Love the environment. Outside patio seating available. Market inside with Italian meats, cheeses, take-home meals, and condiments for sale. Staff is very friendly. Portions are very generous and prices are reasonable. Had the lasagna and linguini with clam sauce. Delicious! The iced tea is amazing!

I always say dining out is more than just good food; it is also about the ambiance, the service, the variety, and good bar. Well, when you go to Ciao you get it all! Got seated immediately, had a very nice lady serve us, food was excellent, portions large (we took food home). Wine was good (they have a good selection). It is a large restaurant and still their personnel didn't skip a beat. We could see them all over the place making sure all guests were taken care of. Can you tell we liked the place already? Highly recommended!

Just moved to Vista but have been visiting this restaurant for birthdays and other celebrations. Even celebrated Valentine’s day here. The food (pizza, pasta, dessert) are soo good and flavorful. I don’t think we’ve ever had a problem with any of the dishes. Oh btw, the fresh warm bread they bring out is to die for. Love coming here and we get superb customer service every time! A must try is the pear gorgonzola pizza!

I've been driving by this restaurant for over 10 years and finally decided to stop in for a family dinner. We were not disappointed. First off all, they recently expanded and remodeled; the place is beautiful. On top of that, my wife and I typically talk about how we could have made better food at home...that was simply not the case with Ciao. The food is really very good and quite reasonably priced, for the quality. I entered $30-$50 per person, and we did average the low end of that, but only because we splurged a bit on appetizers and desserts. Most could leave with a full belly for less than what we spent. The staff are well kept, helpful, and very friendly/courteous. My glass did not go empty, they're on it. They also have an area where you can buy Italian meats and a nice little Gelato bar with a variety of flavors. I would definitely recommend.

Pamela Walton | Aug 18, 2020
Diane Gravlin | Aug 18, 2020

Actually, they are two sides to the newly refurbished place. A more formal dinning side that is very kid/family orirnted. A relaxed pizza side that has many more offerings than just pizza. We love this place...we always take home food. Great service. AWESOME FOOD.
