We had a delightful dinner at Ciao Trattoria on January 20, 2026. My wife and I opted for the Dinner for Two which includes an antipasto (two choices) - an appetizer, a primo (ditto) - usually a pasta dish, a secondo (ditto) - usually a meat or seafood dish, a contorno (side dish) and a choice of a dolce - dessert. Each dish is shared (except dessert, where we could each choose our own). Everything was delicious... superb! We've been to Italy a few times and what this restaurant offers reminded us of some of the best authentic Italian cuisine we had in Tuscany. The Dinner for Two menu changes every month, so this gives us a good excuse to return soon. Of course, we could also return sooner to try other options on the current Dinner for Two menu! They do have a full alla carte menu (Antipasti, Primi, Secondi, Contorni and Dolci) in addition to the Dinner for Two menu. The prices on the menu may look a bit on the high side, but keep in mind that the listed prices include tax and... this is a big one... tips are optional (perhaps even discouraged)... how civilized! Highly recommended. read more

Ciao happened to be our dinner stop on the way up to Spokane. We arrived shortly before 5 so we were the first to be seated and as the night went on, the cozy indoor dining room filled up. The ambiance reminded us of an authentic Italian Trattoria and our server was friendly and gracious. I started with a Champagne and house-made Limoncello cocktail which was lovely after a day of driving. We shared a generous portion of the lasagne and 2 afagatos for dessert. The lasagne was obviously fresh made with wonderful flavor profile combining the rustic tomato sauce with the traditional bechamel sauce on top. If you're driving through the Tri City area, I highly recommend Ciao as a dinner destination. read more

Came here the night before the Ironman, looking for what we heard was the best fettuccine Alfredo - they did not disappoint!! Home made pasta that was rich and delicious and the chicken was done to perfection. Our athlete loaded up on the breadsticks and dip, the fettuccine and finished it off with his favorite tiramisu. We spoke with the owner and told her how great the food was. She shared pictures of her family and shared their passion for cooking. It is quite obvious as you see the steady flow of customers! The food was amazing and this little place is booming - wise to make a reservation so they guarantee a spot for you. Servers were so helpful in directing our choices - the desserts were read more

We returned to Ciao Trattoria again and had a lovely time. I got the Pasco Sour drink and my husband and I enjoyed two entrees and a side each. The food was fantastic! We were served more than I recalled so I saved some to take home to leave room for dessert. We shared a lemon cannoli and an eggnog cannoli. read more

Ciao Trattoria - The Pasco Sour - Italian Near Me - Pasco, Washington

The restaurant may be on the smaller side, but it's beautifully decorated and creates a warm, welcoming atmosphere. The moment you walk in, you are greeted by the incredible aroma of the food-it smell amazing!! The dishes themselves were just as impressive, and everything we ordered tasted fantastic! Our server was extremely polite & friendly, which made the experience even better. My only note is that some of the furniture is starting to show it's age, though the overall look still remains elegant! I will definitely be back soon! read more

Amazing experience from the time you walk into the place. Very small intimate venue. Service was awesome and the food was amazing

I went to Chao for a date with myself and the environment, and the service was amazing. The food was absolutely delicious. read more

I have been wanting to try this place for a long time as I continue to see it advertise on social media. I was not disappointed when I came in here last night with my kids for a quick dinner. The place was completely empty when we arrived at about five something. But within the next half an hour, it was completely packed. I felt really bad for the server who was there by herself, but she was a rockstar! I didn't get her name, but she had beautiful red curly hair, and she was smiling and kind in spite of a pretty busy dinner service. She was attentive, and she was absolutely fantastic. This mom and Pop restaurant is exactly the kind of place that I love to visit. I will be frequency this place much more and telling all my friends about it! read more

Great little place in downtown Pasco! As soon as you step in the door it feels like you're in a small restaurant in Italy. Food was great and service was excellent. I would highly recommend enjoying a dinner with friends and family, and especially date night with your wife! read more

Food quality / price (value) rating 7.5. The atmosphere is eclectic. I ordered a Cosmo and was told they had no cranberry juice but could substitute pomegranate juice - which was fine - but when the drink came, it was in a tiny Champagne glass that was only half full. I had the Top Sirloin with Pistachio Crust, which was a nice sized 12: oz, it was presented beautifully, but was kind of flavorless. The wife had the Pappardella alla Puttaneska which was very flavorful and spicy, and the pasta was cooked appropriately. We both agreed to share the Italian Wedding Cake dessert, but they were out of it. We would have had a couple of cappuccinos and an aperitif with dessert, but that's the way it goes. I thought the service was good, but overall I was unimpressed. read more

I am OBSESSED with the fig and prosciutto flat bread. Service was great and they were very nice. Highly recommend!

I didn't have a reservation since I came at 4:15 or so on a Saturday, and the host highly recommended next time getting a reservation if you are planning on eating Friday or Saturday there--however he was able to seat us (party of 2). The service was quick and very friendly, and the space was cute, perfect for a date night. The food was very tasty and you get a decent portion--the rolls that come with the meal were so warm and fresh. Also you've gotta treat yourself to some desserts well worth it! The cappuccino I ordered to go with my torte was a latte but that's okay still good quality. We will definitely go back. read more

They don't make things fresh. If I'm paying that much I want fresh made pasta. So I won't be back

Intimate little gem in downtown Pasco. Staff is delightful, food is the best Italian I've had in this area by a wide margin. Very well thought out menu, the drinks are fantastic, the desserts sinful. Imbibe is their lunch bar / lounge two doors down, just as magical. read more

Great food, warm atmosphere. Been several times and the food is consistently good with a seasonal menu and specials during the weekend. One of our favorite spots in Tri-Cities! read more

Wonderful atmosphere and food was very good. Service was delightful. Highly recommend enjoying an evening there.

Great food, great service. The lasagna, chicken, and the wedding cake were all the best in tri cities. The parking was a little tight but worth it. read more

Really good food. I thought I wrote a review a couple of years ago, but I'm not finding it. The first time we went there, I got the pasta with lemon and Parmesan. It was amazing. This time, I got lasagna. The man got mushroom raviolis both times. It's a special place. read more

The service here was excellent! Wait staff is paid a living wage so tips and tax is included in the price of each item. The price you see on the menus is the final price. Quite refreshing! The food was excellent. We had the fig and prosciutto flatbread as a starter, tagliatelle Al Gorgonzola and cannelloni Florentine for entrees and meatballs as a side. All very tasty and well proportioned. We also see they have entertainment on the weekends in the alley. We will be back for that next time. read more

If you've ever wondered what Italian restaurants (in Italy) are like, visit this one! The vibe, decor, and friendliness of stuff matches Rome's. The food is pretty good too.

We've traveled through Italy several times, and plan each stop based on food we want to try. Today, while traveling from Walla Walla, WA., toward Portland, we decided to take a detour based on reviews for Ciao Trattoria, because we haven't found anywhere that is like the food we've had in Italy, and we miss it. Ciao is all that and more, the food is delicious, the service was perfect, and our server was simply wonderful. I had the Chop Chop salad, which was perfectly seasoned, with crispy romaine and delicious bits of salami and prosciutto. My girlfriend had the meatball sandwich, which has a delicious sauce, with big, tasty, meatballs. I'd definitely go back. read more

In a recent getaway to Washington, I came across this restaurant as a nice little Italian restaurant that we thought we should try. SO glad we did. Food was phenomenal, legitimately the best dinner we have ever had. The service was wonderful too. Legit, we may go back to pasco just to eat here again. And in case you're unsure, get the Italian wedding cake for dessert. Exceptional. Divine. read more

Amazing! The service, food, and ambiance is great. This is probably the best food I've had in Tri-Cities. The food is fresh and made in house, the prices are amazing and include tax and tip, and the people are incredibly friendly and wonderful. I highly recommend. read more

We are regulars at Ciao Trattoria and it is our favorite place to eat! We have been going to Ciao since they opened and have enjoyed every single dining experience. Ciao has a great lunch menu with delicious pastas, salads, and sandwiches. I really enjoy the chicken pesto sandwich and my husband loves the meatball sub. For dinner, there are so many options! The drinks are perfection and we love all of the wine options. The service at Ciao is top notch. We never have to worry about our food or drinks running out! The service is prompt and the staff at Ciao are always very welcoming. We love the ambiance of Ciao. It is a small little place located in the heart of Downtown Pasco and it brings people in from all over the Tri-Cities. We could not ask for a better restaurant in Downtown! We love to bring big groups of friends, have date nights, and even have events catered by Ciao. You can even rent the entire restaurant out for a special event! It can get busy some nights, so I would highly recommend making reservations to ensure you can get in. If you haven't been, you definitely need to come Downtown and try Ciao Trattoria! read more

Impressive food, cozy atmosphere, friendly owner and staff. Have been looking for a great intimate, owner run (non-chain) restaurant since moving from the Tri-States to the Tri-Cities.

Had this place on my radar for a while and tried it out for the first time last night. We met another couple for dinner, and I'm glad I made reservations as this place is small and it was packed (even on a random Tuesday night!). The guys both ordered the Gorgonzola steak w/gnocchi (Bistecca Gorgonzola), I splurged on the wild mushroom ravioli, and our fourth ordered the lemon pasta w/shrimp (Scampi Di Gambero). All of us were impressed and thoroughly enjoyed each dish. I went in thinking for sure I'd have leftovers... NOPE! The portions were just right, so of course the guys insisted on dessert, opting for the Soaked Italian Wedding Cake. None of us had ever had it before and we all agreed it was the perfect end to the meal. We all left satisfied and overjoyed to support this local gem. The proprietors said they plan to open a cafe near the current location, so we'll be sure to come back. PRO TIPS: DO make reservations and DON'T be in a hurry. Relax, enjoy, and support local!! read more

Run, don't walk to this little tiny bit of Italy in the middle of nowhere. Decor and staff and food...exceptional

Loved the atmosphere and service. Our dinner was amazing!!! Definitely will go back the next time we are in the TRI.

Great atmosphere, great service, and great food. I ordered the mushroom pasta and it was fantastic. My partner ordered the fig and prosciutto flatbread and the flavor was amazing. This place is great even just for grabbing a few nice cocktails. Downtown Pasco has been in need of something like Ciao Trattoria. Kudos to the owners for bringing Italian cuisine to this area. read more
