Dinner

I know this isn't wedding related - but I'm hopeing you can help!!

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

Re: Dinner

YES! I love Ciao Babys- huge portions, good fun atmosphere. Good service too!

Re: Dinner

i've always wanted to check it out! let me know how it is!

Re: Dinner

If you have never been there, you have to go!! Get the rice ball as big as your head!!!!!

Re: Dinner

The food is sooooo good! Just be careful because it can get very expensive in there!!! Their portions are so big. When I went there, I went with 2 girls & 2 guys, and we each got a salad, 2 app. to share, and 1 dinner (yes 1 dinner). That 1 plate fed all 4 of us with left overs!

Re: Dinner

they were talking about them on news12 this morning.

Re: Dinner

OH...MY...GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!

that place is un-real. don't eat for two days before going b/c the amount of food they give you is borderline glutiny!!!!!

they have the BEST food... here are my recommendations (i've been there so many times lol)

the chilean sea bass (entree)
grilled shrimp wrapped in proschutto (however you spell that--i call it fancy bacon! lol) on a ravioli in a cream sauce--SO GOOD (it's an app)
fh loves the skirt steak
the calamari and mussels are HUGE and absolutely delcious (apps also)
their pasta's are great of course too
if you like riceballs--everyone i was with RAVED about them there.
dessert---just three words-- THE ICE BOX!!!!! or the chocolate volcano but the ice box is #1 for me

remember, the portions are HUGE so depending on how many people you have don't order too many apps b/c you will NEVER make dinner-- to put it in perspective, i went with four other women and the five of us shared just TWO entrees and had left-overs for two days!!!! Most of the time I order the shrimp ravioli app as my entree... also, their menu constantly changes-- anything you dont see just ask for, they accomodate you on everything!

and, if you are going with a party of 6 or more then you can call ahead seating which i def recommend... if it's a smaller party--get there early b/c we had to wait 2 hours once at the bar.

ENJOY!!! BUON APPETITO!!!!

Re: Dinner

It's so yummy!!!

Re: Dinner

I love the atmosphere.. they sing and stuff... and there is a lot of food... but the food isn't good in my opinion... I love to go there for drinks though

Re: Dinner

i responded to this q on the 07 board! was just there on wed. nite in commack--and was NOT impressed

Re: Dinner

I've been to both locations and I think they both have really good food, excellent quality and forget about the portions, you've heard it already!! The size of the dishes they bring out is just scary!! They use 1lb. of pasta per dish.
They make the best Apple martini's.
Enjoy!!!

Re: Dinner

I liked it. They play cool music and they have HUGE portions. Great food.

Re: Dinner

excellent food huge portions good martini's as well

Re: Dinner

I've been to the one in Commack - food was good but I wouldn't go back to that one b/c it was just too loud. I could not hear the person sitting next to me. It was annoying - gosh I'm getting old!

Re: Dinner

Yummo. I want my rehearsal dinner there! I love it. Seriously though, alot of food. So good though. I was supposed to share my entree, hells no. I kept it all for myself. The spinach salad with pears is awesome so is the calamari. So much food. Fun atmosphere too. They had a Sinatra impersonator when I was there last.
