    Delicious food (seafood fradiavlo was enough food for two, if you also want to eat the linguine underneath). If I wasn’t staying at a hotel, I would have taken the pasta to go … it would have made another meal all on its own. Our waiter was wonderful and made up two separate Caesar salads for my husband and me as hubby doesn’t like salad dressing; it was cold and crisp and the shaved Parmesan was plentiful. The bread served before the meal was fresh and tasted homemade. I wish we had room to try their desserts!

    Me fiancé and I love Ciao Roma! We come back for our anniversary often! Not to set an expectation, but they honored the “anniversary” mark on our reservation and put out confetti, a specially printed “anniversary” menu, and even gave us a glass of Prosecco each! So delicious, beautiful restaurant - I always recommend it to visiting friends.
