About Cibo Italiano

Cibo Italiano is a hidden gem that offers a range of delicious dishes and exceptional quality food. The restaurant serves freshly piped cannolis with a light, crisp shell and perfectly balanced sweetness, as well as homemade pappardelle with Bolognese ragu made with grass-fed ground beef and organic ground pork. The ambience is cosy, and the owner, Gisella, is committed to high standards, greeting customers personally and wiping down tables between parties. Dishes such as the Beet and Apple salad, Stracchino, Arugula, Prosciutto Focaccia, and Ravioli are excellent, with exceptional tomato sauce. The restaurant also serves popular dishes like carbonara, pappardelle, and Bolognese, as well as Arancini bites. Customers appreciate the real Italian food and the authenticity of the meals. The homemade dressing for the Caesar salad is especially noted as a highlight. Many love the option to build their own paninis and share that everything tastes fresh and organic. Gisella is known for keeping her recipes true to their roots, making the food special. The restaurant is also celebrated for its sweet treats like the amazing strawberry shortcake.
