We’ve had some disappointing takeout experiences in the past (with other restaurants) so we weren’t expecting much this time. But D’Cerboni’s Ciao House truly surprised us! The food was presented beautifully—just as if we were dining in—which made us feel like we were getting our money’s worth.
Everything tasted amazing: fresh, flavorful, and served in generous portions (we even had enough leftovers for lunch the next day!). Kudos to the cooks and the entire team for delivering such a wonderful experience.
We look forward to enjoying more meals from Ciao House, whether dining in or taking out 😉.

An absolute pleasure in dining. Intimate for special occasions and comfortable for a quick dinner. The BEST Pizza in the HD. Fresh ingredients, thin perfect crust 👌 Delicious.

This restaurant used to be the firehouse Italian restaurant. I went there on a Monday evening the place was not very busy at all. The server that originally came to our table was very nice but seem to have little knowledge about the wine menu and some of the menu items, possibly she was new. The menu was a little confusing, I like to eat Italian food but I don't speak the language. The wine prices seem to be a little high, but the food prices seem to be in line with most places. The food was good, but thought it strange that they have lasagna but it was not on the menu. It probably won't be one of my regular places, but I might go back again.

I like what you've done to the place! If you are reading this, ignore the 1 star reviews. They are left over from the previous restaurant. I looked through, and the actual average is closer to 4.9, as it should be. Loved the rib eye, loved the spaghetti, my wife loved her shrimp scampi. The bread was excellent. Thanks again for the great experience. We'll be bringing friends back.

We had a party of 10 for a birthday. We had 2 appetizers and we all had full delicious meals for less than $275 with tip. We were frequent customers of Dinopolis and hadn't tried the restaurant since the switch until now and we will definitely go back. Large portions and everything was so good. The service was great and everyone was friendly. I recommend going and trying it out for yourself.

Visited this place for the third time and OMG it does not disappoint I feel like the food got even better! Everything was delicious definitely worth it! will be back soon!
My wife and I decided to go for a date night and happened upon this place by what turned out to be a very fortunate chance.
The co-owner (also our waitress) was extremely friendly, warm and welcoming. The service was prompt, a perfect balance of attentiveness without smothering. The atmosphere was relaxed and very pleasant. The food (appetizer and entrees) was very flavorful and the portions were well worth the price, which was already quite reasonable.
Highly highly recommended giving it a try! The owner informed us that Wednesdays are wine nights, meaning all wine is discounted (a bottle of any house wine would only be $15!) so if you’re looking for an excuse maybe use that!

We stopped by for a casual dinner while passing through Victorville and didn’t expect it to be THIS good. We ordered the ravioli appetizer and it was absolutely amazing. Both of our entrées were delicious, the service was excellent, and the portions were very generous for the price and quality. We’ll definitely be back and highly recommend it!
PLUS: the vibe/decoration is super nice 🇮🇹🍝
PLUS 2: on Wednesday they have $10 off on the wine bottle
PLUS 3: the owner/receptionist was so gentle and playful, we love it!

My family and I came when they first opened. I was a little nervous because nobody was in there, but they greeted us, and the service was amazing. When we ordered and got the food, it was beyond delicious. Thank you guys again for the delicious food and great experience.

Last night, my friends and I dined at D' Cerboni's Ciao House in Apple Valley. It was my second time there.
I ordered the Selezione Di Pasta which is a build your own pasta kind of thing. You can choose from 10 different pastas and 10 different sauces. I chose linguini, Alfredo sauce, and added grilled chicken. It was delicious and quite filling. Everyone else seemed to enjoy what they ordered as well.
To top things off, we all ordered cannolis for desert. If you have room, I suggest ordering one.
I tasted the marinara sauce. It was quite savory. In the future, I could see ordering the Selezione Di Pasta with linguini, marinara sauce, and the Italian salsiccia (sausage) links. I bet that would be a great combination. I also tasted the sauce from the Pollo alla Marsala. I'm not much of a fan of sweet sauces but that was pretty good and I would probably order that for myself sometime.
One of these days, I would like to go back and try their pizza. I saw one on someone's table as we were being seated and it and it looked really good.
Our server was friendly and quite attentive. The ambiance is nice, especially with a little Dean Martin playing in the background. Overall, it was a great experience.
