Ciao, Cape Girardeau MO

Overall good food and service. Reasonably priced for an upscale restaurant. Pasta and sauce were well prepared and flavorful. My wife had their seafood special (branzino) which she found flavorful but it was not filleted as it should have been resulting in a few too many bones. Will definitely give it another shot.

Everything is excellent here. I would put this in my top 3 favorite restaurants between St Louis and Memphis!

It was an amazing experience. Great food, great service, and well worth every penny.

The waitstaff was so attentive! Our waiter for the evening was great. He was present without being intrusive. I believe his name was Dustin.
The menu offered a variety of options that are different from a lot of other restaurants in the area. Everything we had was wonderful! Perfect portions of delicious dishes. I had the sea bass, as recommended by our waiter, and my husband had the eggplant parm.
The atmosphere was lovely and intimate. The dining area is clean and decorated nicely. The music played was perfectly suited for the type of vibe they're trying to achieve.
Overall, Ciao is a beautiful Italian restaurant perfect for date night. We can't wait to go back!

My wife and I came in for a date night and the experience was perfect. The food was outstanding. The staff and owners are friendly and provided top notch service. I recommend to anyone looking for a great meal and night out.

Visited Ciao for dinner yesterday with my husband and was honestly shocked by the quality of the food. For appetizers, I ordered a Caesar salad and my husband ordered the corn dip. My salad consisted of mostly wilted lettuce which was disappointing. Husband's corn dip tasted like something out of a can, not fresh at all.
For entrees I ordered the lobster Mac and cheese and he ordered the gnocchi. My lobster Mac and Cheese was super soupy rather than creamy. Worst of all, the sauce had broken which separated into cheese and an oily film, and somehow the chef still decided to serve it. Lobster was rubbery, overcooked, and had a funky taste.
Husband's gnocchi was okay-ish, but extremely dry and with a strong taste of oil.
Overall, disappointed in our experience, especially given the prices for each dish.

The potato crusted sea bass is fantastic and the filet was soooo tender
