Ciccio

We loved this comfy little spot that we just happened upon by mistake. The food is amazing and the staff is so friendly and helpful. Their pastas are prepared perfectly and contain ingredients not seen on every menu which is refreshing and exciting. We highly recommend if you're looking for something that feels like a true NYC restaurant experience.

Bland. The only reason I gave three stars and not less is the atmosphere is top notch cozy and quaint.

Ciccio is simple, delicious neighborhood Italian cooking with great ambiance to match. Service is always very friendly despite the fact that I have a bad habit of showing up without a reservation and making life difficult. White painted brick walls are a touch of classic New York well matched with fresh flowers and real candles to set the mood for a class dinner. The food is consistently delicious. Fresh pastas are a cut above and always al dente - highly recommend the house special pasta strips cooked in Chianti. But you can't go wrong with a special if one is on offer or the green pappardelle. From the mains, the porchetta is a winner time and again; porky, fatty, crispy with creamy beans, what's not to like? I'd recommend an app if only to keep the good times rolling, the octopus is a personal favorite. Decent wine by the carafe is a nice touch to keep you from overdoing it on a Wednesday. Desserts are consistently good if you have a sweet tooth. All in all, a great choice for elevated trattoria fare and lovely service in a beautiful space.

Ciccio presents as a small, low profile trattoria with exceptional dishes and a selective menu. In a day where the weather feels like 100+ degrees we were welcomed to the table closest to the air conditioning. Our still water was served traditionally at room temperature, but we welcomed the secondary glass of ice that we used to cool our glasses. We debated on which bottle of rose would be best for this heat and were recommend the Sicilian Planeta Rose ($54). We then started with the cooling plate of prosciutto e melona ($19) which paired well with our first sip. As an entree we split the melanzana miso y tartufo (eggplant with truffle)- ($23) and the cappellacci served in a brown butter sage sauce ($29). Our waiter was welcoming and respected the times we were mid-conversation by ever to gently refilling out wine glasses. He kept both our ice and our water glasses full as he noticed we were hot from the sweltering heat. The atmosphere is quiet but at the same time lively with conversations. The music is a mix of bohemian French and singer-songwriter standards. I wouldn't recommend this place if you are famished, but I would recommend if you are looking for premium quality dishes that resonate after you've finished your meal.

We made a reservation for four for 7pm on a Thursday. One of us had to cancel last minute and the restaurant was very accommodating. They have both indoor and outdoor dining. During this particular night, the outdoor dining was packed which left us in a cozy, not super loud inside. It was decorated with walls of wine and exuded a cool old school restaurant vibe.We shared the Caesar salad. Not bad but not the best I've had. I found that there was too much dressing. The meatballs were deliciousFor the entrees, we shared the delicious herbaceous risotto with the perfect balance of vegetables and cream. The wine pasta was also very good and unique. I would come back again to try something else on the menu!

Good atmosphere. Took a little longer than expected. Cold Focaccia, below average oily food. Was really excited to try Italian food in the city but this is definitely not your "must-try" .

Veggie forward menu, which I like on a philosophical level. Despite this my steak was cooked perfectly, although not with much other flavor or fat. Boyfriends pasta was extremely salty though (I love salt and found it to be inedible) and on top of that it was a fairly long wait for us to get our food.

This place was terrific! First, the place is super tiny but we had a large group of 9 people and they accommodated us at a long table in the back room - it was beautiful and cozy! The menu was great - something for everyone. The gnocchi with Brussels sprouts and pork belly was fantastic and several at our table ordered the salmon special and everyone really enjoyed it. Nice wine and cocktail selection. We were celebrating birthdays so we ordered the cheesecake and Tiramisu - both delicious and the waiter lit candles without issue! The wait staff was awesome - very accommodating! Would definitely recommend this place, but make a reservation in advance if you can. it was completely packed by the time we were walking out. Lots of little tables with people enjoying each other. Great place for a date night or group of friends.

I went there the other night to treat myself to a fancy dinner, and Ciccio's did not disappoint. I had the Caesar salad, a basket of bread served with olive oil and balsamic vinegar, the pappardelle Verdi con salsiccia e cavolo rosso, the creme brûlée, a glass of Sauvignon blanc, and some chamomile tea. Let me tell you...best meal I've had in a long time. I ate every bite. the house made pasta was ridiculously delicious. And the service was wonderful. My waitress was friendly and attentive, and she's the one who recommended the pappardelle, which was a fantastic choice. And the other wait staff kept my water glass full and checked on me repeatedly. The atmosphere was warm and cozy. I will definitely be going back. I wish I had taken pictures, but I was too busy enjoying the meal!

The Strisce was so freaking delicious. Cute atmosphere and everything we ate was great but the Strisce was special. Get that.
