Had my baby shower at Ciao, & all expectations were met. Thank you to the husband & wife combo & their staff for making my day seamless & easy. Everyone was very attentive. The space is so fun, & so are the drinks!! Super cute spot for a private event, or date night. Thank you to the chef, Sonia! For amazing, homemade & fresh food. Highly recommend this family owned business! Thank you for making my baby shower the perfect day.

We love coming to Ciao and sitting in the back room. The servers are kind, knowledgeable and happy to make your stay super pleasant. I love to split the Orechiette with my husband- we leave room for the Torta Nocciola!

Great atmosphere, great food and amazing drinks! The Ooooo bea cocktail in particular was delicious!

Ciao was a great find in Lynn. I visited twice, but I'll be visiting more often. It's got a great location downtown and it was easy enough to find parking. Staff and service was excellent.On my first visit, I split the short rib arancini and melanzana pizza with my cousin. The second time, I had the pesto cavatappi. There was enough for leftovers both times. The arancini were crisp and delicious. The pizza was flavorful. I love cavatappi, and it was perfectly cooked and went well with the pesto. The bread and oil is great. I really loved their drinks. I had the Old Fashioned and the Pineapple Campari and both were strong and well-made.I look forward to returning to try more menu items.

Decent eatery for an impromptu work dinner. I'm originally from New Haven and always look for New Haven style pizza in Massachusetts but I've always fallen short. Ciao is a cute little restaurant that I truly wouldn't mind going back again. The service is really good but the food from my experience falls a little short. I ordered the Arancini and it was cold. I told the server and he was very apologetic and took it back. The second time around it was decent. I ordered the pizza and it was good not New Haven style but good. Overall 7/10 experience because of the service. Maddie was a doll and if I ever come back It would be for her.

We were just looking to avoid Salem during this crazy season and in the process found this excellent spot! Great parking in public pay lot (cheap) across the street. The atmosphere was great. Festive without being too loud. Our waitress was so nice and knowledgeable about the menu. She made some delicious recommendations for appetizers including delicious green beans. Our drinks were incredible and we all enjoyed our entrees. Food was fresh and flavorful with a bit of something for everyone! Highly recommend this great spot!

Tonight we had an excellent meal here before attending a show at the Lynn Auditorium. We had a 5:30 reservation and were seated right away. Our server was great, bringing soft, warm herbed rolls right away and explaining a few happy hour specials. I started with the Ciao Cosmo which was nicely chilled with a good flavor. I then had the Chicken Milanese, a good sized piece of chicken topped with arugula, blistered tomatoes and burrata cheese. It was delicious. DH had chicken parm which he said was really good too. The place has a nice vibe and is only a short walk from the Lynn Auditorium with on street parking. Highly recommend.

Overall disappointing experience. I'm visiting from out of town and I ordered food to go. I got 2 orders of the Crocchettine and 2 pasta dishes. The chicken parm was decent, the other dish was not. The photos on their website (attached here) make the crocchettine look like a decent size/portion, justifying the $11 per order price. However, what we got was no bigger than one inch balls of VERY BLAND crocchettine (photo also attached with size comparison to a 4 oz cup). Called the manager and first of all, as I was waiting I heard mumbles of who's calling me and why. Great first impression! I mentioned that the photos were deceiving and that they're essentially ripping people off with these things. He didn't seem to care, but said they're priced fairly. Wouldn't offer any type of credit to remedy the issue, just that I could bring them back (after I was already settled back in at the rental). This review is simply to let you know that these are not worth the money, and that the manager has no sympathy for his customers!
