$15 for a tiny plate of rigatoni with barely any sauce and a frozen chicken patty with some melted cheese on top. Insanely bland. Atmosphere was nice tho read more

The food was good I got the gnocchi with a salad and some wedding soup They give you a generous portion of food so you are not leaving hungry. I will say the soup had too much salt but otherwise the gnocchi was good. read more

Cibo's Restaurant - Front menu - Italian Near Me - Waynesburg, Ohio

The homemade pasta and sauce is fantastic. The service is always friendly and fast. Being in an old movie theater is a really neat experience as well. read more

The service was fine, no issues there. I've eaten Italian food all over the world and it's one of my favorites, but this restaurant really missed the mark. The dishes tasted more like store-bought sauces tossed together than true Italian cooking. It's not awful, but it's definitely not authentic. If you're looking for real Italian flavor, this isn't the place. Also would recommend adding acoustic paneling to help with the noise. read more

For me personally, this would be a five star review simply because of the nostalgia. We came here on special occasions 20 years ago when I was a kid and the place hasn't changed a bit! It's delicious, it's affordable, and I love the atmosphere. If you're a dad of little girl(s), take them here on fathers/daughter dates, make them feel like little princesses, and make some lifelong memories like my dad did! read more

See all

Soooooo good! I was back in Ohio visiting family & we decided to go for a Sunday drive out to Atwood Lake. We decided to drop in. It's in an old movie theater. The pasta is all homemade. The gnocchi melted in my mouth. The ravioli were just like my grandma used to make. Everything was fresh & delicious. Great service. Our server gave us recommendations and suggested splitting our options so we could try more. If you're in the area well worth it read more

Cibo's Restaurant - Gnocchi, Meat Ravioli & Meatball combo - Italian Near Me - Waynesburg, Ohio

Visited friends in the area and they took us here for lunch. Located in an old movie theatre, service was fast and friendly. We had spaghetti and meatball and lasagna. Food was delicious. Homemade pasta and sauce. Meatball was good also. Meals came with soup or salad. Wedding soup got high marks. Very affordable. Not fancy but comfortable. Would return , we all enjoyed it! read more

We will DEFINITELY be back! Our first visit was amazing! The food was fantastic - soooo good and tasted just like my Italian friend's grandmothers Sunday pasta dinners! The lasagna and ravioli was so delicious! The homemade rolls were so good too! Portion sizes were huge and we both left with containers of left overs - which was still as tasty the second day!! The history of the old theater was fun and just added to the experience. Can't wait to go back and try something new!! read more

Wonderful food! Large portions and good prices. Unique building with some history to it. Absolutely loved the homemade pasta can't go wrong with anything on the menu! Also love the sauce and that they give you a bowl of sauce on the table. Great meal! read more

Great homemade food. Friendly staff. Ordered 3 large takeout party trays and food was warm and ready on time. read more

Probably the best Italian food in Ohio. Homemade pastas and sauces. Good portion sizes. All with really really good flavor.

The food was excellent. Our waitress was very professional. But there was an odd horrible smell inside the place that just wasn't right. I will pray that they get that cleaned up. What a great restaurant great atmosphere, just to have it ruined by a very odd smell read more

Nestled in sleepy Waynesburg, Ohio, Cibo's has some of the best pasta I've ever had. As you walk into the restaurant you'll soon notice that you're in an old renovated movie theater--the atmosphere takes you back to a better time. The food, as I mentioned before, is great. While I'm undoubtedly guilty of ordering the same thing every time I visit, I always end up stealing from other people at my table's plates. Pasta is homemade and the sauce is just right. Reasonably priced and definitely worth a visit! read more

This place is so good! The kitchen crew makes fresh, homemade pasta every day they're open.

Its a unique resturant, was a theater, it now has level platforms with steps, some what ok for folks in a wheelchair. Food is "American Italian" not Italian Italian. Portions are big on the pasta side. I live in the "spaghetti capitol", Waynesburg. Place is always busy when there open, especially Sundays! read more

Since we were visiting hubby's family in the area, hubby wanted to come here. I immediately liked the mom and pop feel of this place. (although the ceiling needs a little something to break up the vastness.) Well priced for what you get. The dinner salad was basic, no frills. I had the lasagna and it was good. It was filling and I even had some left over. The gnocci was homemade and tasty. The red sauce seems to be what they are known for. It was very good and I wish I had sonedor the rolls. I thought that the rolls were a little on the dry side. I would have liked to have warned rolls and melted butter brushed on them. If we are in the area, I hope that we can stop by again. It was delicious and filling for a decent price. read more

After sitting down my wife and I sat for 20 minutes, no one asked if wanted drinks, to order or anything. I had to find the manager for her to take our drink and food order. The food was okay not like a traditional Italian restaurant, food was lukewarm and the rolls are cold. I probably will not be going be back. read more

Wonderful Italian restaurant in what was once a movie theater. Good food and plenty of it. Heavenly huge bread rolls, but wish they were served warm. No garlic bread either but there's hardly any room for it with the size of the portions. The tirimisu is to die for!!! Wonderful place to eat! read more

Yummy! Great service delicious food and affordable prices! Very charming g atmosphere as it was an old movie theater!

I read the reviews, and one thing is clear: those who think this is a "good authentic Italian restaurant" have never been to a "good authentic Italian restaurant". Head to little Italy in Cleveland and you'll change your mind fast. Or down the street from me is Lockkeepers, Corleone's, and D'Ag. Don't try those restaurants though if you plan to return to Sibos...it just might ruin you. For a mom and pop shop in a small town though, it passes as edible. With a large open room with no dividers, it is hardly a pleasant atmosphere. If I was from a small town, I'd probably Iove it....especially since you'd have to drive 20-30 miles to find a decent restaurant! My parents love it. So I'll keep coming to see my parents...but don't think I'm happy about driving 75 minutes for the food when real Italian food is 15 minutes away. read more

I have been here twice while visiting my best friend over the last few years and both times I left feeling full and happy with a doggy bag in hand (which says a lot for me.) You definitely get your moneys worth here. Soooo much seriously delicious food. As a New Yorker I am fairly picky with my Italian food but Cibo's has it going on! I can't wait to visit again. The server was also very friendly and attentive. read more

Cibos is a good authentic Italian restaurant and always satisfies. My particular favorite is the lasagna, however everything else I have tried there has been good as well. I would either recommend the lasanga or spaghetti .. Oh an you MUST try a meat ball!!! read more

I grew up in Waynesburg and Cibo's still has my favorite Italian ever. Also their house salad dressing is very tasty! It's a neat atmosphere, as it used to be a theater. Great for large groups, as they have a lot of table-size variety.Mid-range prices, $10-$15 for an meal. Each time I go back to Waynesburg, I always get take out ravioli, half cheese/half meat. Definitely check it out if you're going through!! It's delicious. read more

Meatballs are amazing. Service is great... Jenni is a fantastic waitress. When we are thinking Italian, we go out of our way to drive down here from Akron to get the best Italian food around!!! read more

Welcome to Cibo's "fine" Italian dining, in the "Spaghetti Capital of the World", Waynesburg, Ohio. (I know some Italians who may take exception with that claim) I have eaten at Cibo's three times, not because I wanted to, but because I had this place forced on me as a location for family birthday parties. Ciao's sign boasts as being "fine dining", I've eaten at fine dining Italian restaurants and this place is about as far from fine as you can get. Upon arriving at Cibo's I was presented with a basket of their "famous" homemade dinner rolls. The rolls were cold, bland & tasted of nothing. When My waitress arrived I asked her at what times the risotto is served. (most fine dining Italian restaurants serve risotto at the top and bottom of each hour) my waitress had no idea what risotto even was. (my dreams of fine Italian dining were dwindling quickly) So for my main I ordered another classic Italian specialty, veal parmesan. What arrived was disappointing once again. The veal patty was one of those shaped, breaded & frozen portions that I can get from any wholesale distributor like Gordon Food Service (GFS) or others. Since our party was quite large I looked around the table and noticed that the popcorn shrimp, the chicken tenders, the chicken parmesan, the cheese sticks, the crab cakes, and the calamari. All of these items seemed to be of the same wholesale distributor quality. My wife ordered salmon and a salad. The salad was just a bunch of iceberg lettuce thrown on a plate and drown in sliced canned olives. The grilled (frozen) salmon was dry, unseasoned, and tasteless. This place may have been the standard for Italian dining in the 1980's but the menu is dated, all of the way down to the red pepper and canned parmesan cheese shakers on the table. In the restaurant business, you move with the times, or the times move you. I believe the american palate has become more sophisticated over the years and has come to expect more out of a "fine" dining experience, but that would be hard to tell from the clientele I saw at Cibo's. I think they would have been happy with replacing the tables with a pig trough, filled with spaghetti and garnished with a couple of dead dogs. When I think of FINE Italian dining I think of FRESH! Even a chain restaurant like Carrabba's is way closer to fine dining than Cibo's. There I can expect freshly cut herbs in my extra virgin olive oil that is used as a dip for my FRESH HOT bread, Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese is freshly grated at the table and the lobster ravioli is so thin delicate it makes you want to cry! I have had hospital cafeteria food that was better than this place. On a recent visit to a hospital I was shocked to see that they had a exhibition cooking station where food was being cooked fresh and to order. (maybe Cibo's should pay them a visit and get some pointers.) Judging by all of the 4 & 5 stars this place gets, I guess most of the people are content with mass quantities of low priced crap. read more

Chicken breast in chicken parm seemed as though it was from a bag of prepackaged breaded chicken breast. It was thick not thin and pounded out like true chicken parm should be. Sauce was decent as was the service. read more

Several years ago they had the best sauce around, then new owners took over and Americanized the sauce. Now their sauce is only a shadow of its former self. The staff seem like they would rather be anywhere else than there. The home made pasta is still quite good. The bathrooms leave a lot to be desired in the areas of cleanliness, facilities, privacy, and room. read more

This was the "worst restaurant. I have ever encountered. It does not rate a star period. This is listed as a fine dining family owned restaurant . They should take pride in cooking homemade. The rolls were cold and looked store bought. The pasta did not appear homemade. I chose salmon and salad. The salmon was from Gordon food store ;just a square block with NOTHIiNG else on the plate.. It was Atlantic salmon. Which is farmed and not fresh. No eye appeal, no seasoning, sauce,nothing. So I guess it was thrown in microwave and voila. My salad was also horrible. Just a plate of lettuce, not shredded or cut up, just wedges that I had to cut as well as two wedges of unripe tomatoes that needed cut Then to top it off about 40 BOTTLED green olives that I had to remove because I do not like olives From a bottle . It was disgusting. I had such a stomache from the lettuce. I love a variety green salad. Like spinach. Arugula , carrots. Radishes etc sounds Italian. I do not see why anyone would go here for pasta unless they do not know how to boil pasta. I never got the pasta but it also was NOT served with grated Parmesan cheese but a store bought shaker. This is listed as fine dining. We have been to fine dining restaurants and they serve food elegantly with eye appeal and fresh ingredients. Carrabba"s restaurant is a fine dining restaurant with a 4.8 rating per trip advisor The only item to my knowledge that is homemade is the sauce which I never had. The menu was boring and dated. Cafeteria food would actually be a step up. read more

Let me preface this review by saying I've eaten my way through Little Italy in Cleveland. I like to find independently run, no frills Italian eateries. And Cibo's is one of them. Located in a converted old theater, it's almost awkward at how large the place is and how poor the acoustics are. Inexpensive--definitely. Daily specials. I am a light eater so I opted for a side dish of rigatoni and a meatball. I believe the pasta is homemade (the regular spaghetti definitely looked homemade). Now here comes the goocher...yes, I said goocher. The red sauce. I am a red sauce snob. And I have to say Cibo's red sauce is pretty damn good. If I have to chin it up against other restaurant sauces I'd say it's up there with the sauce at Nido Italia and Dolce Vita and it's every bit as good (or better) than Mid's or La Gra's sauce in a bottle. Fast and efficient service. Again, no frills. Just down-home people serving up some pretty darn good Italian grub. read more

I happened to be in Waynesburg for a funeral and arrived early, at lunchtime. This restaurant is about your only choice around here, but it's good. It is in an old theatre, which makes for odd table set up and decor. I had the lasagna special, under $10 for a huge piece, salad (not too memorable) and good bread. The lasagna was very good, plenty of cheese and sauce. There are good standard italian choices and reasonable prices. The waitress was friendly and a bit overwhelmed, but tried her best. She got me in and out in about 40 minutes, and my stomach didn't growl during the service... read more

My husband and I came from rhode island to visit friends and they brought us to this cute place. Service, food and price was very good. Fresh pasta and great taste for the sauce. A place to Go back next time we visit. read more

It was my first time here and the food and service was outstanding. Very laid back and fun. Will be going back for sure.

First time here even though I only live about 15 minutes away. The decor of the place had kept me from trying it but I finally sucked it up and went. I'm very glad that I did. It's hard to find fresh made alfredo sauce but Cibo's definitely delivers. My dining partners had the chicken parmesan and spaghetti. Everyone was very happy with both the service and the food. If you're in the area, stop by. Don't let the bad decor fool you, this place is worth the trip. read more

Homemade at its finest! Reminds me of my mother's cooking no joke. Inexpensive, simple and never a bad meal. Fresh and old world feel. Also go when in town! read more

This may be my favorite Italian restaurant of all time. All the food is homemade and tastes delicious. We got the multiple course meal for 2 had food for days. I've never been there and had a bad meal. I'd definitely recommend it to others. My only desire is they were open more. read more

Decided to take our family out to dinner and had enjoyed Cibo's in the past. Dinner specials each week for all you can eat for reasonable prices on spaghetti and rigatoni that included salad and dinner rolls. As I have two young children the meals have always been split between them with no problem. However, on this visit after starting our meal my husband and I and one of our children decided we would have more. When the waitress asked if we would like more my husband explained and was told that because our children had split the meal she could not have more. My husband simply replied "that's fine I will give her a little of mine." When the waitress returned with our food she tried [for lack of better word] to explain that she added a $1.00 charge and had spoke with the manager about receiving more on a shared meal. Not really having an issue with the additional charge but the fact that is has become an issue at all. My wife pointed out that we had done it in the past and if a policy had changed or it was going to cause an issue then wouldn't it have been important to say that when it was ordered. Then to our amazement she loudly answered "this is not a buffet and we don't give away free food." Shocked and now embarrassed my wife stood up getting our children's coats and getting ready to leave was then grabbed by the waitress and told "you can't leave without paying your bill." I can not even express how appalling this behavior is on so many levels. Now that our family night out has turned into a scene. We paid our bill and left without the owner or manager ever even trying to resolve the situation. When my husband called after we left to speak to the owner he was told he was resolving another issue and couldn't make it to us. That he had taken over for his father and this employee had been there for over ten years. He apologized for her handling the situation poorly. As my husband went on to explain we will never return and if they continued with that quality of service it wouldn't matter at all how good the food is. So if you want to take a chance then this is the place for you. read more
