What a great place. I have been here 4 times since the summer of 2021 and it has never even come close to disappointing. But the evening of March 29th made me really love this place. I had a reservation for 10 people for 6:15 which they accommodated in such a pleasant way even after we changed the date and the number of guests a week before. I was concerned that they might be upset when most of my party were late but nope. They were great about it. Seated us in a cozy almost private area. Our waiter (I wish I had gotten his name) was awesome. He let me know that another group needed the space at 8:45 in a friendly super professional way. (And my apologies for vacating the space 5 minutes late. We were enjoying our time together there so much). Of course the food was great. I wouldn’t return so many times if it wasn’t. Just such an all around great experience. Thank you to the entire staff. See you again soon.

This place was terrific! First, the place is super tiny but we had a large group of 9 people and they accommodated us at a long table in the back room - it was beautiful and cozy! The menu was great - something for everyone. The gnocchi with Brussels sprouts and pork belly was fantastic and several at our table ordered the salmon special and everyone really enjoyed it. Nice wine and cocktail selection. We were celebrating birthdays so we ordered the cheesecake and Tiramisu - both delicious and the waiter lit candles without issue! The wait staff was awesome - very accommodating! Would definitely recommend this place, but make a reservation in advance if you can. it was completely packed by the time we were walking out. Lots of little tables with people enjoying each other. Great place for a date night or group of friends.

Best off the beat home made authentic Italian restaurant. A great gem and must visit if you want chill family style - like Momma is in the kitchen.

Home made pastas and gnocchi, excellent salads, desserts really everything was wonderful. Highly recommend for anyone wanting fresh and authentic but also interesting dishes. My faves: carrots arugula salad, eggplant, gnocchi. Enjoy!

Ciccio is simple, delicious neighborhood Italian cooking with great ambiance to match. Service is always very friendly despite the fact that I have a bad habit of showing up without a reservation and making life difficult. White painted brick walls are a touch of classic New York well matched with fresh flowers and real candles to set the mood for a class dinner. The food is consistently delicious. Fresh pastas are a cut above and always al dente - highly recommend the house special pasta strips cooked in Chianti. But you can't go wrong with a special if one is on offer or the green pappardelle. From the mains, the porchetta is a winner time and again; porky, fatty, crispy with creamy beans, what's not to like? I'd recommend an app if only to keep the good times rolling, the octopus is a personal favorite. Decent wine by the carafe is a nice touch to keep you from overdoing it on a Wednesday. Desserts are consistently good if you have a sweet tooth. All in all, a great choice for elevated trattoria fare and lovely service in a beautiful space.

I used to give this place 5 starts. Food was good enough and it is a neighborhood place. Unfortunately everything being blamed on inflation is bonkers because so not worth the money any longer like so many places.

Great small restaurant with fresh pasta and a quaint atmosphere.
That pasta is a failed experiment, especially the one with wine.

Tremendous vibes. Loved the ribollina soup.Vegetarian options: Not always obvious that a dish has meat in it or not--would recommend asking, the strisca alla chiantigiana didn't seem to note that it has meat and turns out it did (I think?). Plenty of other options, though

Such a good service!!!!They figured I didn’t like my pasta just by my facial expression and came to the table to check in. I don’t eat pork, and there was pork cheek in my pasta. And as soon as I tasted it, I got confused. I didn’t read the menu good enough.So the server said, “no this pasta isn’t it for you” with a kind tone and asked me what I would like to have instead. I got a replacement quickly after.My colleagues and I were pleasantly surprised.The interior is so cosy, the food is tasty!!The eggplant starter was SO good, and I liked the tagliatelle the most
Taste so good!!!!! The best one in my heart!
