Cibo Cucina Italiana

Stumbled upon this restaurant randomly on a Tuesday. Showed up at 6:30pm and it was mostly empty but by 7pm, it was getting full.Service was great. Both hostess and waiter were sweet and attentive. Food was amazing and portion sizes are very sufficient. We ordered the seafood spaghetti with white wine sauce, wagyu beef carpaccio, and prosciutto and funghi pizza. Everything was so light - didn't make you feel so overly stuffed and gluttonous afterwards. Some dishes don't come with meat and there is an extra charge for protein for some pasta dishes. They also have a kids menu, so very family friendly.

Great find.Tucked away in a little strip mall...Cibo doesn't look like much from the outside...but it's bright and beautiful on the inside and has a great atmosphere.The service was great, as was the menu...and the food was delicious.The field salad was huge. Cauliflower appetizer delicious and the Veal Marsala was done perfectly.We'll be back.

Really lovely interior vibes. The feel was just right for week night Italian dinner. Welcoming greeting- warm hellos. Beautiful decor.While waiting for a friend, a nice young lady greeted me- water was served and when my friend arrived bread and oil were brought to the table-Starter: the bread and oil were nice- but just a little revision could be made on ten alder- it's not water friendly and does not showcase the bread and oil- we took it out of the basket and placed it on the table to be able to access and enjoy it. Maybe the bread could come sliced so there are a couple pieces for each person. The pup was a good but the seasoning not incorporating well even after mixing. Salads: delicious and a good portion for a side salad. We chose the Caesar. Calamari: small for the price and too chewy. Needed to be more crisp. It did catch in my throat s couple of times. Pizza: the crust was a little too crispy for me. Maybe needed some more sauce. Chicken Marsala/ huge portion and very very flavorful.We had a great time- really nice people. I did wish there were water bottles in the tables because after we paid we hung out for a bit and we needed a little more water but I did ask someone later.

My family and I came here on a Sunday a few months back. We just googled "Italian near me" and this place popped up. The interior of this place is so cute. The menu had a lot of options and our waitress was great. We ordered the meatballs to start and they were great! The kids got a pizza and I ended up getting the salmon. My Salmon was cooked nicely.

Cibo Cucina Italia had a nice ambiance and super friendly service, but our experience was disappointing. Our seafood pasta came out suspiciously fast, wasn't hot, and seemed like it had been microwaved. We ended up with food poisoning that night--unacceptable for a pricey restaurant. Never coming back.

I was really craving Italian and stumbled up this spot tucked away in a seemingly unassuming strip mall. If I'm being honest the start to my dining experience was rocky to put it nicely. I was placed near the entrance and whenever the door was opened a cold draft would come by. When my server came I felt rushed and like I was forced to order my entire meal. And when my wine came I noticed my glass was filthy. But everything fixed itself once the salad came. The ingredients were fresh and had great flavor. The chefs pasta was good and the shrimp was a good addition but it can easily be shared and not necessarily needing an extra protein. I caved and got the tiramisu and it was good. Not too rich and a good way to end my dinner.

The first time my fiancée and I attended Cibo, our server was very welcoming and knowledgeable. Gave us suggestions about every section fo the menu and a great wine to pair it with. The food was authentic and delicious, I feel in love with every bite. The ambiance was calm and relaxing, was a nice change of pace compared to other Italian restaurants. Highly recommend coming here.

Armando and Salvador were the true standouts on this visit. Upon entering, my Mom and I were greeted by these two young men, shown to our table, seated, handed Menus, and given water. They have a new drink menu consisting of cocktails and mocktails which we will need to try on our next visit.What sets Cibo Cucina Italiana apart from all the others:1.) the balance that is struck between impeccable service, ambiance, and phenomenal food. and2.) the fact that this establishment can pride themselves on the premise of being legit Italian CuisineI love what Dilayda - the owner - has created. She knows, appreciates, and interacts with her customers and asks for their feedback. There is a noticeable welcoming vibe and a highly magnetic, inviting energy about this space that is synonymous with comfort, joy, and contentment. The modern, upscale vibe is achieved through its aesthetics - from the bright color palette to the dazzling chandeliers. When you have a team with the culinary skills, experience, knowledge, and expertise to efficiently prepare and serve, you know you have the tools necessary to run a restaurant of this caliber. We will continue to be regulars here and return for future visits as frequently as we can.Mom ordered the Margherita Pizza and I ordered the Seafood Spaghetti. We tried each other's entrées and I think the silence spoke for itself. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal. This is honestly the first time we have come to a restaurant and finished everything on our plate. No leftovers to speak of. The ingredients are clearly authentic and of high quality.Armando was our attentive, intuitive, polite, friendly, professional, and respectful server. I liked his energy and personality - it pretty much set the tone for the rest of the evening as he engaged in conversation with us and made us feel welcome. We perused the wine list and could not decide what we wanted, so he offered us a sample of a couple of white Italian wines. We decided on a glass each of the Barone Fini Pinot Grigio which lent palate-pleasing, fruity undertones and paired perfectly with the Seafood Spaghetti.I enjoyed every bite of the seafood spaghetti. The tender, yet firm and ideal al dente perfectly balanced texture with just the right amount of chew, and portions of succulent shrimp, mussels, and calamari in a light, delicate, magical, delectable white wine lemon sauce made for a delicious meal reminiscent of farm-to-table dining in Tuscany.My Mom enjoyed the Margherita Pizza - it arrived hot and fresh out of the oven and straight to the table. From the texture, chew, and dough/crust ratio with pops of rich mozzarella, the acidity of the crushed tomatoes, and fresh basil right up to the edge, you cannot go wrong with either of these two dishes. The flavor was a combination of creaminess and acidity and was giving us authentic Neapolitan Vibes from start to finish.To conclude our meal, we decided on the Vanilla Bean Cheesecake. It is a perfect size for 2 to share and is made fresh in-house! You can certainly tell the difference as it is not very sweet and made with real/high-quality ingredients. Most noteworthy are the cream cheese and melted butter for texture, and graham cracker crust for the perfect bite.What truly bothers me are filterless fellow judgmental patrons - the ones who seem to get pleasure (whether they take-out or dine-in)out of complaining, denigrating and/or trashing a business as they describe the lack of service, food quality, or that no one acknowledged them when they entered and begin recalling events that most likely never happened and spewing untrue nonsense which is not accurate or at all reflective of their dining experience. I'm still not sure I understand some of the low reviews on this establishment, but then again, you can't please everyone and it is possible that some Yelpers and Googlers clearly either don't have a discerning palate or truthfully don't know authentic Italian Cuisine or how it should taste.‍

Had the salad goat cheese appetizer and spaghetti entree. The salad was excellent and a large portion. Spaghetti entree was also a good size portion and cooked perfectly. Sauce was home made. Everything we had was good

Amazing ambiance, spectacular food and impeccable service! This place is a must try in the Plano area. I had the bruschetta and the Marsala. Both were fantastic and 100% would get again. Hector our server was amazing and super attentive. He made sure our glasses were always filled and timed out our dishes perfectly. Can't wait to come back!
