We absolutely loved our dinner at Ciccia Osteria. Mario seated us and took our order, I believe he is the owner/chef and he was so friendly and clearly passionate about his menu. The mushroom flan was very unique and super good (quite rich!) and the homemade pasta was amazing. We’ll definitely be back to this friendly neighborhood restaurant!

Chef Mario treated us to amazing lunch today. We started with a carafe of Sauvignon Blanc wine and the amazing octopus and arugula salad. For entrees we had the swordfish and the crab gnocchi. And for dessert the ricotta cake with apricot and habanero. Oh, did I mention the amazing focaccia bread served with every meal and truffle oil mascarpone dip. Everything was perfect and we enjoyed every minute. Tell Chef we'll be back and looking forward to cooking classes starting up soon!

It's always a pleasurable experience. The food is always good, the quality is always there, and the service is right on top of things. You don't find many places that the Chef takes the time to say Hi or even take your food order. It's a great place to enjoy with friends or celebrate a special occasion. It's comfortable and cozy and very reasonable.

Mario is an amazing host and chef. We had a party of 16 , and no one had been here before. But after our meal, we all said this was one of the best meal and will return soon. Everything was wonderful and delicious. This is one of my favorite places now. Thank you, Mario!

This place is good! We went as a group of 7 and they sat us right away. The service was great they were very attentive and always checking in with us. The prices are pretty good for authentic Italian but some things were definitely Overpriced. A slice of Easter cake was $15. They had a ton of gluten free options for two in our group and they loved their food. We ordered lasagna, Alfredo, occicia, side of veggies, pesto gnocchi, and a special butternut squash pasta. Everyone had great things to say of their food. Two in the group ordered white wine sangria and said they were amazing. All in all definitely a nice place to at least try out!
