    Everyone in my party of 4 loved their meal selections, the veal parm was the best I have had had in many years, and the Grouper Frances was superb, as well as the Lasagna and vodka penned pasta! Drinks were perfectly made as well and our server was very attentive!!! Will be going back!

    Every year that we visit Myrtle Beach we make sure we also have dinner at Ciao. The food is consistently great and drinks made well. This x my husband had a beat salad which I wished I had ordered as well because not only was it great but w the feta on top, it served to be very appetizing. His chicken soup was the best he has ever had and his chicken dish fantastic. I had a ceasar salad along w scallops, linguine and Diablo sauce. Fantastic!

    Been Dining at Ciao's in Myrtle Beach, since 2015, and the overall quality remains outstanding! Chef Gene and Claudia not only make you feel welcome, but they make time to personally interact with their customers. Tim, the Restaurant Mgr., is one of the nicest, most accommodating, and knowledgeable, about the fine food and wine served at Chiao's. The entire staff are, and continue to provide a pleasurable experience for my wife and I, each time we arrive, whether it's for Lunch, Happy Hour, or Dinner.

    Wait staff is efficient and friendly and professional. Food is delicious. Proportions are smallish for the price. Seating is too tight. No privacy-it was like eating with the table next to us!
