CIBO

I cannot begin to fully encapsulate how much this place glows with hospitality. The hostess who held the door for me, the bus boy Reese who was practically bursting with charisma, and my server Wayne, who somehow always knew exactly what I needed before I even did; all of them acted as if they had watched me grow up and had known me for years. Wayne thoroughly explained the menu and how meticulously crafted each recipe was, and went over his personal favorites. I went with the soup of the day ($6) and a Wayne-recommended spaghetti and meatballs ($16). Have I had better food somewhere else? Probably. Do I remember the name of any of the staff, or that the bus boy wants to be an EMT, or that the owner's mom and the owner make the ravioli themselves every morning? No. CIBO's strong suit is their exemplary service which left a memorable impression on me (although the food was still pretty good). The staff members repeatedly stopped to make conversation with all of the guests, as if they were also patrons sitting at the table waiting to eat. The family next to me had 4 different employees stop and chat, so I eventually asked if they came here often and they told me "every week!" I was at CIBO for a little over 30 minutes, but I left with a full belly, a smile and an feeling of coziness that I wanted to share with everyone I saw. My total came out to $23.43, plus a $10 tip (I only wish I could have left Wayne and Reese a larger one). I'm writing this review in their parking lot because I immediately had to let everyone know how phenomenal of a staff CIBO has employed. I was only in Ft. Myers on a business trip, but I'll make sure to recommend CIBO to my colleagues and stop by the next time I'm in town.

Always have had great food and excellent service. Very friendly staff. But it is crowed and noisy. Tables too close together. That's my only criticism . Chef does a super job. Managers and staff take care of business. Have eaten here probably 10 to 15 times. Good times. Thin the tables out.

Cibo has yet to fail us.. .always perfect portions and flavor is spot on. Love the varieties of Risotto available and they have a good variety of daily specials. Servers have always been attentive and great at recommendations:)
