Overall, a good place to enjoy classic Italian cuisine!

My wife, who's Italian, wants to take this +1 hour trip several times a year just to come here because it reminds her of the various "Mom & Pop" restaurants of her hometown in northeast PA. It sits in downtown DuBois with plenty of parking options nearby. The restaurant is good sized but it also does a lot of business so plan ahead on the weekends. The inside has a cozy/hometown feel with pictures of their family all over the walls. I don't think much has changed to the interior in those 20 years and that's okay by me. For this outing we opted for the antipasta salad, Italian wedding soup, veal parm and stuffed manicotti. Their dishes are more traditional italian (i.e. not olive garden) and they offer lunch, half, or full-sized portions. Their gravy has a good balance between sweet and savory. They also make a great fresh baked loaf of bread and they're happy to bring several to the table throughout the course. It was a special occasion so we closed out the night with their famous strawberry cheesecake. Service was excellent and the bill, with several drinks, was around $60 for 2. This is not a chain; it has character, it's not polished but it's a true gem of spot in rural PA. I'm glad places like this still exist!

Unfortunately, I found my main underwhelming--the gnocchi texture was oddly try, and the signature sauce was too sweet for my liking. But enough was promising that I'd return if passing through, I'd just order differently.

Tiramisu is one of my favorite Italian desserts too, and Ciro's has the best kind! My boyfriend loves their calamari & shrimp. It's always a pleasant time coming here and everyone is so nice! It's one of the best quality restaurants in town and very clean.

It's small inside, but has a few large tables. They only accept reservations for 10 or more so it's first come first serve. The portions are large and the food tastes fresh.

Remember to specify your pasta or you'll get angel hair (I always forget). My wife is italian and the red sauce is just too sweet and sugary for her -- I tend to agree but I still enjoy my dish. They offer various lunch sandwiches which are great. The restaurant is near the courthouse in a residential area on a hillside. There's plenty of street parking but access may be tricky for older or ADA visitors. The interior is small, dated and generally packed with locals. They do accomodate large parties but I'd plan ahead. Pricing isn't bad (typically $15-$18/ea) and you'll leave full.
