Dinner...

I know this isn't wedding related -

But has anyone been to Ciao Baby's? Is it any good?

Re: Dinner...

Re: Dinner...

yes! I love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Dinner...

where is it?

Re: Dinner...

There is one in Commack and one in Massapequa Park

Re: Dinner...

i've been to the one on sunrise highway

Re: Dinner...

Yes..the food is good and the portions are tremendous BUT if you go on a Friday or Saturday night beware of the extremely long wait. The last time I was there we waited 90 minutes for a table. If you have 6 or more people you can call ahead.

Re: Dinner...

Yes! And it is amazing!!! Enjoy!

Re: Dinner...

just went to the one in commack on wed. night. now i know some ppl just LOVE this place--but i am not quite in the same boat. (it was so-so in my opinion)

if you are looking for a romantic quiet restaurant--this is NOT for you! the food was decent, but i felt the atmosphere annoyed the heck out of me. it's too crowded and loud in there. some heavyset guy was murdering frank sinatra songs karaoke style....oh and if you go on the weekend--be prepared to wait anywhere between 1-3 hrs. for a table.

also--the menu is very very limited. (since they change it every week) and they only have about 7-9 dinner items. the food is 'made to order' which means you will wait forever for it to come out of the kitchen. the proportions are ridicilious---too huge for words IMO

my dinner came out fine, but FH's dinner was cold. he was so annoyed he didn't bother sending it back. the clams we got for an appetizer were good--and my stuffed rigatoni was yummy, but his dinner stunk.

the volcano desert is ridicliously huge, but tastes delicious

Re: Dinner...

We LOVE Ciao Baby

We live near the one in Massapequa and it is practically the ONLY restaurant we ever go to

Re: Dinner...

they have great food!!

Re: Dinner...

I agree with mjdoc12, I'm not a big fan. The waiters go through this 15 min. monologue in the beginning about the type of pasta they have there, even though I told them I know what pasta is, and the food, although large in portion, was not that great. The prices aren't bad, but for what they charge I would rather have half the quantity and better quality.

Re: Dinner...

Thank you all for your input!

We had a great time there last night...

Re: Dinner...

OMG FH and I LOVE Ciao Baby's. The food is EXCELLENT and so is the service. We are thinking of having our RH dinner there.
