It's quaint and pretty and not too loud, which always is a big help when making conversation. I did find the menu a little limiting. There's not a super wide variety of items, but we made our minds up and dug in. Some of the entrees were really big, and some tiny and pricing doesn't always reflect that when ordering. The mains began to take forever to come out, and tables that ordered after us got theirs first, and eventually when anyone cared to offer an explanation, there were two different answers (which always makes me think they forgot a table). In spite of that, the food was good all around. I had the smoked barramundi croquettes, the margherita pizza and the most delicious brownie with an orange mascarpone. It was SO good. I'd come back again for that alone. Overall ... parking was good, staff were friendly, service slow and spotty, very small pours of wine, staff wearing masks under chin (either wear one or don't), clearing plates away while some are still eating, but the food - which is what you come here for - is really good. I wish there were a few more pastas to choose from, but whatever you order, you know it's going to be delicious. I'd definitely come back again.

We come here quite often to take clients out for lunch. The latest dish we had from here was the grilled fish fillet and it was, as usual, delightful to savour.

We highly recommend for people to visit Ciao Cielo to catch up with important people as the food and ambience is perfect!

The cured meats selection, San Daniele prosciutto, mortadella, bresaola and pancetta were all fresh and delicious paired with some rustic Italian bread drizzled in olive oil. We then proceeded to share a pizza, the daily special which combined prosciutto, fig and Gorgonzola. It was cooked to perfection and the pastry so delicious I didn't want to miss a mouthful. The rocket, parmesan and pear salad . Although just a side was amazing with a special honey dressing. Have to say can not wait to go back. Even though it was hot the courtyard was well shaded and pleasant. The salumi board is definitely a good option for the summer weather.

It's half the size and twice the price of other great pizzas in Melbourne. If you're in the top income tax bracket, Go here. You might need more than 1 pizza, though. Also, these types of pizzas need to be eaten immediately, so forget takeaway.

All four of us agreed what a wonderful meal we all had. The staff were very friendly and good humoured. We WILL return the next time we are in town !!!
