Ciao Amici's

Excellent service and good!

We are never diappointed with our meals. Excellent menu. Food is always delicious. We and our friends have been very impressed with the generous food portions.

Always a great experience with wonderful meals. Can't miss!

This celebration fell a little short of expectations. Our waitress was knowledgeable and attentive, but not lively. There was ONE server for our group of eight. Our food was just fair and two of the eight meals had to be sent back. One had cheese on it and was ordered without, as the person is allergic to dairy products. The second dinner was served with mushrooms, but not described in menu as having mushrooms. Had to be sent back as person does not like mushrooms. I had perch, which I have had several times here and it has always been good. It tasted like rubber and the bottom skin stayed on the plate. Did not finish and I threw out what I took home. My husband said his meat was good, but very fatty. I think the others just did not want to mention how their food was, so as not to disappoint us. We were located in the back area away from the site of main room and crowd. I had mentioned in my reservation that I would like to be placed in a similar spot to our last party celebration, a year ago, which was up front. That celebration was fantastic. We had two lively servers, sat up front by the door, all the food was very good. Our table was nicely set both times. This last evening just fell a little short and when you spend over $300 plus corkage for three bottles of wine, I just expected it to be a little nicer. I have eaten at Cia's many times over many years. This was the first let down.

We were there for a special occasion. Everyone enjoyed the food and, because there wasn't a lot of background noise, we could hear each other and, therefore, enjoy each other's company. Will definitely go back.

We have been there several times now and very happy every time. We will continue to go there and enjoy!

Always a great experience. The restaurant is always clean, the service consistently excellent, and the food equally as good.

Love it! The food is incredible, my favourite dish is the tortellini Diablo, perfect amount of zing and I have them add Italian sausage to really kick it off. Their bread is incredible you can't stop eating it. The service is impeccable I highly recommend

Absolutely delicious! I had the butternut squash ravioli and my husband had the steak. Both amazing. Even the coffee we had with dessert was delicious. And the lemon cream cake was excellent. The server was lovely and we had two (I assume) managers stop by to ask us how everything was. Nice touch. We will be back!

This is an excellent meeting place for friends who don't live in the same city; we came from East Lansing and Chelsea. Well worth the drive; food is outstanding.

From the time we walked in, service was outstanding. Everyone complemented their choice of entree. The meatball appetizer was extremely tasty and passed our true Italian judges seated around our table. Will definitely plan to make the 45 minute drive soon to once again experience the fine dining pleasure at Ciao Amici’s.

Server was friendly and helpful. Our satisfaction seemed to be of utmost concern

The service and food were exceptional. Waitresses went above & beyond our expectations for our birthday gathering. Food was well prepared and presented. My biggest complaint was there was swordfish on the menu, but not available.

Enjoyed Lunch at Ciao Amici after a family occasion (funeral). Can not say enough about our attentive server. The menu was impressive with a variety of dietary choices - needed for our gathering. All were commenting how awesome the food was, beautifully presented, delicious, fresh ingredients and hot (when it should be). Very pleasant afternoon with lunch and a walk at the Pond and downtown Brighton. I would recommend.

Best Italian restaurant in Brighton, IMHO. The house made vinaigrette is great for the salad, the lasagna is phenomenal and the spaghetti is great and the veal is very tasty. The atmosphere is friendly and casual, and the wine list is very good. Service is spot on also.

Another fabulous and memorable dining experience at Ciao Amici’s in Brighton, MI! Thanks Nick (you keep spoiling us) and Robin (server extraordinaire)! Cheers!

The food is excellent and the atmosphere is nice. Sometimes the service can be a little slow but it's a great place for a business dinner or a romantic night out.

Very impressed as always. The food was fantastic, the bread is to die for. The wait staff is always pleasant and have great manners when it comes to serving.

I have always liked this restaurant. Was not as impressed with the food as I was a year ago when here. The food was a little rich with butter and a bit too much salt this time. The value seems to have dropped a little.

Super time

Evening dinner with neighbors at local Italian restaurant. Ordered wine and spaghetti. Food was good, setting was quiet, comfortable.

Some of us in our group of 5 liked their meals. One person had chicken Parmesan and thought is was too heavy with cheese and had no pasta with it. Another person ordered perch and was not happy with the meal. He did not eat it. A few other had chicken dishes that were okay but not great. Waitress and manager were very nice.

We have been coming here for years, and celebrate all special occasions here. We love it every time. Wonderful staff, great food, and great service.

Family get together as my oldest granddaughter is getting ready to leave for college

What a wonderful place to visit. We have now made this a place to visit for all special occasions. Amazing food. Everything that I have tried has been wonderful. The staff is excellent. Always attentive and polite. Great atmosphere. I love the seating arrangements. Its like your in your own little world. I have visited this restaurant over 10 times and NOT ONE was disappointing.

Excellent food, generous portions and very good service. Consistently good.

Many interesting menu choices. Good food, and very good service. Very large portions. Few moderately priced wines, but wide selection of more expensive wines. We will return when we are in the area.

We eat here frequently. My favorite dish is the Salmon. It is outstanding and cooked to perfection. They have a good selection of wine and the noise level is very low so talking and hearing is easy.

Food was cold and when we sent one back it came back cold again, third time it was hot

Great spot.

We love Ciao Amici. It’s a great place to meet friends from southeast Michigan for lunch or dinner. Our only wish is to improve the calamari appetizer. Many years ago—10 or more?—we remember the calamari appetizer as fresh, lightly seasoned and grilled. It was the best we had found in Michigan. Unfortunately now it appears to be prepackaged heavily battered fried.

Outstanding waitress, great service! The Halibut special was delicious; my friend had the scallops also done perfectly

Sara was a great server. Our food was very good. Asked to move because of loud diners next to us and they were happy to oblige. Wish they had some wines cheaper than $8 a glass. Would order more than one!

We had a wonderful anniversary dinner and enjoyed the ambiance of the restaurant. The big picture window with a view of the river was so nice. The menu was excellent and the service perfect. Can't wait to return!

Great selection of fresh Italian dishes. The pasta is fresh and delicious and the veal dishes are great. The lasagna is phenomenal, better than your Mom used to make.

Amazing food and service! One of the best places to eat in Michigan.

New server Adam was excellent
Food great!!

Fathers Day lunch out. Just my Hubby and me. Quiet and great service. Husband had his favorite Lamb Shank and Minestrone soup and I had the Chicken Piccata and Gorgonzola Mixed greens. A chilled glass of sparkling Rose was wonderful. All delicious. Saved room for some of the best Tiramisu in the area. We were well served and the Owner also came by to say hello and refilled my water.

Perfect afternoon to celebrate my Husband and all the Dads celebrating at Ciao Amici’s.

Fabulous meal and fabulous waitress Bobbie. 😀👍🏻

Great service topped with an excellent meal. Who could ask for more?
