Another good meal at Ciao Bella. Sat at the bar and had great service from Nick. Cold beers ($6) and good wine (cheap Pinot Grigio for $15). Garlic knots are served immediately and are included but also available for purchase. They are delicious. What a perk when sitting down. Pasta Di Manzo (sirloin chunks in creamy sauce with mushrooms and rigatoni pasta) $25.99 had a great flavor. My criticism would be the beef is too tough but that is me. Still a great dish. Shrimp Portofino ($22.99) was fresh tasting with lemon sauce, and fresh veggies and spaghetti pasta. Great dish. Another great experience at Ciao Bella! read more

Food is fabulous. Both the bartender and the wait staff were great. Chef Judy is out of his mind! Oh my god. If you know you know. Full Italian menu. read more

I stopped in to grab a drink and a pizza to go. I met the Owner who was extremely attentive and got my order and drink in right away. I will definitely be back to experience dining in. Again, great food great bartender! read more

With the exception of the hostess the staff was fast, friendly and very professional. The restaurant is clean and nicely decorated. The bar area is a little awkward but the bartender was very nice. We ordered a bottle of the house wine and enjoyed it. Our food was good maybe a little under seasoned, but still better than a lot of local restaurants. read more

One of the best Italian food I've ever had. You can tell all the sauces were made fresh in house. The service was great. I would definitely be back the next time im in the Prescott area. read more

They say sequels are rarely as good as the original, but Ciao Bella proved that wrong. We visited this spot exactly one year ago while visiting family, and I can confidently say the second time around was even better. After this visit, I'm ready to call it: this is the best restaurant we have visited in the entire Prescott/Prescott Valley area. The Logistics: * Timing: We took a gamble and walked in at 5:00 PM on a Saturday without a reservation. We were quoted a 20-minute wait but were pleasantly surprised to get seated in just 10 minutes. * Service: Despite the packed house, the service was seamless. It felt like a true team effort--everyone was helping clear tables, run food, and ensure glasses were full. The Food: Come hungry or plan to take a box home--the portions here are massive and value-driven. * Garlic Knots: These land on the table complimentary, and they are dangerous. Warm, buttery, and tasty. A perfect start. * Fried Zucchini (4.5/5): Do not skip this starter. It might be the best fresh fried zucchini I've ever had. Light, crispy, and incredibly fresh. * Chicken Formaggio (4.75/5): This is a staple on their printed menu, and for good reason. I ordered mine without mushrooms (personal preference), and the kitchen executed it perfectly. The creamy sauce wasn't too heavy, and the addition of artichokes and asparagus gave it a unique texture I loved. It was easily enough food for lunch the next day. * Lasagna (4.25/5): I am notoriously picky about lasagna (mostly because I make a great one at home), but this one is up there. It features a fresh, tangy sauce rather than a sugary one, with a solid meat-to-cheese ratio. The Wine: I ordered a glass of Chianti (I didn't catch the specific label) that was excellent and surprisingly affordable. The wine list here feels very reasonably priced compared to other Italian spots of this caliber. Verdict: Consistent, delicious, and friendly. If you are in Prescott Valley, this is the place to beat. See you next year. read more

It was our last day working together, and two colleagues and I decided to have dinner one last time before parting ways. This restaurant was nearby, had a 4-star rating, and who doesn't enjoy pasta? Unfortunately, the service completely overshadowed the experience. A zero-star rating wasn't an option, so the one star is solely for the service. I rarely call out staff by name, but this experience warrants it. Anna, our server, was extremely rude, dismissive, and unprofessional from the start. First, one colleague initially ordered a Sprite but shortly after requested water with lemon instead. Anna rolled her eyes, aggressively scratched it off her order pad, and clearly displayed her disapproval over a simple change. Next, my other colleague--who is pescatarian--politely asked if the salmon entrée contained any bacon or meat products. Anna responded by pointing at the menu, rolling her eyes, and saying, "Does it say it has bacon bits?" The tone and body language were disrespectful and unnecessary. At that moment, we were all shocked by the lack of professionalism and basic customer service. That should have been our cue to leave and dine elsewhere, but unfortunately, we stayed. In hindsight, we shouldn't have. Sadly, we will not be returning. This review is intended for management--service like this reflects a lack of proper training and oversight. read more

I have eaten at ciao Bella before in the past and I wasn't impressed. I haven't been back in awhile, mainly because of the hours. I was able to go the other night and I heard the server telling another customer about the special. It sounded good so I also asked about it. The server showed me a picture and I was sold. The special was so good I would have licked my plate if the place wasn't packed with people. I still dream about this dinner. I wish it was a regular menu items. The service was great and they also gave us extra bread and sauce to go with the left overs. I don't usually stray from the regular menu items I know I like but I would suggest trying the specials they have once in awhile like I did. You just might be impressed. read more

Ciao Bella - Pan seared salmon with potato gnocchi and Cajun sauce - Pizza Near Me - Prescott Valley, Arizona

Delicious food. Friendly service. Nice atmosphere. There was a line at 4p waiting to get in once the doors opened. However, with it being a Sunday, the restaurant didn't fill entirely. We have been here on a Friday when there is a line and a full restaurant. Their salads are fresh and crisp with tasty dressing choices. They served garlic knots as we sat down which are yummy. But don't eat too many or you won't have room for your delectable pasta dish. read more

OK, I have to admit. I was a bit disappointed. I heard good things about this establishment. The chicken Marcella was just OK. My chicken dish, the sauce didn't have a lot of flavor and was very thin like soup. My chicken was cooked perfect, had some asparagus, artichoke hearts and mushrooms. I tasted the lasagna, kind of like mush and my girlfriend ordered the pasta that had shrimp. Mostly pasta not too much shrimp. My favorite of the night was brussels sprouts. The garlic knots were pretty good and the tiramisu was good. Kate was the best thing about this experience. She was fabulous. I will give it another try! read more

People lined up waiting to get in. That was a good sign. The wait wasn't as long at all. They said about 25 minutes, it was about 14. We were greeted with garlic knots that were delish and I do not eat bread but they were looking too good not to try. Service was good. They did forget my meal but I wasn't that hungry so it didn't upset me too much. Food was perfect. Everyone loved that what they ordered. I had the Fettuccine Mediterranean - I swapped out the fettuccine for GF pasta. I do have a suggestion / no feta cheese. I feel it clashed with the pesto. A little bit of an odd combination - I get it but doesn't work. I ate around it and honestly it was good. The cannoli!!!! The best cannoli this Brooklyn Italian girl has found out here in AZ. My husband didn't even want to try it since we have hadn't had a good one since moving here and he ended up finishing it. We were visiting friends in the area so we won't be back anytime soon but if we are up that way, I will definitely be in to try something new read more

Love this place but don't order the gluten free pizza... Absolutely no care taken while making this and I had to add my own marinara and cheese and re bake it (the dough was so undercooked it was wild) 2 stars cause the gluten free penne was great (after I asked to be cooked well done) this is just crazy to me, don't offer it if it's not as beautiful as everything else, please and thank you. read more

The service and food have always been excellent. Never had a bad date night. It can get a little loud once the restaurant is full, which is pretty much every night that we've been there. There's always a waiting line outside when they open, which is always a good sign of a good restaurant. read more

This place is under rated. A hidden gem. I highly recommend this Restaurant. Their garlic knots are really delicious.

Delicious food! Friendly staff. Try their homemade cannoli while you're there. This is a family favorite.

Our first visit to Ciao Bella, Ohhhh my goodness! It's Monday night we were lucky to fit into a table for (2) in a Full dining area! It was such a family atmosphere, couples, families, and more! We ordered lasagna & pasta Prima Vera with a Rosa sauce, and paired it with a Lodi Zinfandel! PERFECT!! The staff is attentive, the atmosphere is Familia, our server was Angela , the perfect Angel AND , don't forget The homemade Spumoni, The perfect finish!! Thank You Ciao Bella!! read more

We came to Cio Bella for a drink and appetizers before a show at the Toyota Center. We decided to try it after reading the reviews. The wait was only 20 minutes. We ordered the burrata caprese and roasted Brussels sprouts. To drink my husband got a Peroni and I got a pink lemonade margarita. The the food and drinks were so good! The decor was cute with great vibes. Our server was nice but did not really check on us. No refills and we had to wave her down a couple of times. read more

Wife & I were visiting Prescott Valley and needed a place for our anniversary dinner. Was a Sunday evening and arrived about 4:45. Were seated immediately. The web said the place opened at 4 but it was already packed and as we looked around, noticed that many people were already well into their meal. Asked the waitress what time they opened. She affirmed they had opened less than an hour before! We took that as a sign Ciao Bella was a local gem of a restaurant. Turned out it is. Service food and beverage was excellent across the board. We can see why it was packed and why everyone we saw was obviously having a great meal and dining experience. read more

The brussel sprouts appetizer was delicious and our meals were very good. service was spot on.

The food was excellent. We enjoyed the garlic knots that came out fresh as soon as we sat down. The fried mozzarella was excellent with a cheese pull influencers chase but rarely find. The biggest draw for us was there were gluten free options for the celiac in our group and they didn't feel like an afterthought. The staff were even better than the food - friendly with a great sense of humor. I would recommend. I would go back. I would take visitors. Looking forward to trying more of the food. read more

Our friends were telling us about Ciao Bella and how they really enjoyed it, so we went there for our 54th anniversary dinner.

We have now been to Ciao Bella twice since moving to Prescott, and so far it has been our favorite Italian restaurant! I first want to say that we had the same waitress both times and she remembered us even though they were so busy the first time we came. I think that's a great sign of the wait staff! The food comes and fresh and has so much flavor. The garlic knots that come with your meal are done so well. Each meal we have gotten has been good. There hasn't been one complaint! Ciao Bella has been busy both times we've gone, so make sure you are aware of that if you try this place! read more

All was ok. Food ambiance etc. Nothing flashy but it was ok. If ordering the roasted brussel sprouts be aware that they are very sweet.

We love this place!!!! Always great food, appetizers, desserts, and service is always friendly, welcoming and very warm!

Good food, great service. Love the garlic knots and the tiramisu is my absolute favorite from there.

Went there for the first time on 08/18/2025 , Service by Christina was excellent even though she was new there. Very enthusiastic ! , You could tell she loved the job. Bread came right out and some drink, we had the brussel sprouts which where super yummy and plentiful! The 2 entreses arrive quickly and there was SO MUCH FOOD! , We had to take almost half of it home. They gave us a free desert because it was our anniversary , highly recommend , and will be back to try the extensive menu and pizza . Thanks for a great experiance and a memorable night. read more

First time at this restaurant. Nice people. Great service. Fair and honest pricing for fantastic fresh ingredients. As for the food, I am not exaggerating when I say this is by far one of the best meals I have had for as long as I remember. No better comment I could leave than this; for the first time in over a decade I left NOTHING ON THE PLATE or took food home for later. Absolutely a must for anyone who likes great Italian flavors and freshness. BTW the balsamic vinegar was 10/10 Chefs kiss! read more

My fiancé and I were looking for a place for dessert, and wanted to try Ciao Bella. We got seated and were served garlic knots before we said we were just having dessert. But that was ok, the garlic knots were wonderful! We ordered a Tiramisu and a New York Cheesecake with caramel sauce. The Tiramisu was delicious, and the cheesecake was ok. The ambience was very nice. I will go there again to eat, and we did go back to order food to be catered for our wedding reception. read more
