Food was quite good, some of our dishes were not as hot as usually desired but warm enough. I did ask for a special request, our party included a couple that got married hours before in a small ceremony. The bride says Cibo is her favourite place! We asked to have them served a glass of Prosecco or sparking wine upon arrival on open table site. It didn’t happen or was acknowledged.

My husband had the paella which was very good, but the server should have provided a bowl for the mussel shells. Just sayin...

Great food and service but the noise level is off the charts!! Your ears will be ringing when you leave. They really need to invest in some noise reducing baffles. This restaurant will be off of our list for our pre-theatre dinner spots. Very unfortunate.

Great ambiance and excellent service. It was a Thursday evening, 8 pm and very busy. We had to wait for our reserved table, but we received complimentary drinks…à nice gesture. Food was excellent. We did not feel rushed!
