My husband and I came in with money to spend and planned to buy things. He found things he wanted…read moreto buy. I was in the store five minutes before I wanted to leave. I am obese. There are many reasons for this -- my mother just died and I over ate out of grief, for one. When I walked in one of the cashier's gave me a side leer and smirked. I thought "that was weird." I got dirty looks from three other workers. Now true, no one said "hello fatso", but I was wearing nice clean clothes and my hair was done and there was no other reason to give me a dirty look. I will never be back and shame on anyone who works there who did that to me who calls themselves a Christian. Being an Amish doesn't make you holy. The food looks amazing though. We would have bought some things and probably become regular customers. Guess we'll never know. Peace.

Upon entering, we were warmly greeted, made to feel welcomed and were given a brief description of what we would find. My family of three decided to try the sandwiches and were very happy we did. Both my husband & son ordered a Ruben and said they were some of the best they've ever had. I had a turkey sandwich which was modified for my strange food allergy, and it was equally delicious. Gary, Lynn and their daughter were amazing, truly. We were blessed to share a conversation with them during our visit and meal, and look forward to more of that in the future. We are small business owners, and we love being able to support other family owned/operated businesses. We came to the mall in hopes of finding some clothes for our teen and thanks to Regeneration Farm, left feeling like we made new friends. I cannot recommend this place enough.

Okay, first of all, my boyfriend and I had a wonderful, authentic Italian dinner at Ciao's,…read morecelebrating his mom's birthday in July 2026. Second of all, how is it possible that Ciao's doesn't have more reviews on here? It has been a South Bend staple since the 1990s! This is a LEGIT Italian restaurant and caterer, owned and operated by an actual Italian "nonna," Adele Ciao! Go on the website and read the About Us section - she is the real deal! We were waited on pretty quickly, despite it being very busy with other diners, and given our waters and a basket of delicious, hot bread to dip in olive oil/basalmic vinegar and eat while we looked at the menu. We were here during the Summer Restaurant Week 2026 where they offered a 3 course meal for $39. I did not order off of that and instead, stuck to the regular menu EXCEPT for the discounted Aperol spritz ($8) that was on the special restaurant week menu. It was tasty and bubbly! For my main, I wanted to get something unique, so I ordered the lobster linguine pasta in a heavy cream sauce ($28). It was a great sized portion with a real lobster still in the shell on top! Obviously, I ate the whole thing. My lovely boyfriend got pheasant stuffed tortellini ($27) in a heavy mushroom sauce. The tortellinis were handmade and were thicccccc! He was happy he also got a unique protein. His dad, who is not an adventurous eater, stuck to the spaghetti bolognese ($21) and an aperol spritz ($8). He also ate nd enjoyed the whole dish so that's a major compliment. Lastly, his mom got the restaurant week 3 course special for $39. She got the parmesean crusted scallop in the shell, the eggplant cheesy rigatoni, and the hazelnut delicia cookie. She isn't a big eater and the eggplant dish was super filling so she took about 2/3 of it home to eat later. Since it was her birthday, we were surprised with a large slice of lemon cake with a lit candle on top for her to make a wish! It was a lovely and kind gesture and I loved my quarter (okay, more like half) of the cake! It was a few minutes after closing time but the lovely staff here didn't rush us. But we couldn't leave without putting in a quick order at the dessert counter as well. My bf and I ordered an assortment of 10 Italian cookies ($15) and a pistachio cream puff ($3.50) and another hazelnut delicia cookie ($3.75). We gave the assortment as a gift the next day to our realtor and ate the other two later that night. Adele also offers cooking classes and I made sure to tell my boyfriend at least 100 times I want to take a cooking class with her! I'd be down for any kind of class but I especially want to take the pasta making class! Did I mention most, if not all, the pasta served at Ciao's is homemade? Ciao's was a real treat and South Bend is truly lucky to have a restaurant like it. I can't wait to come back and eat another meal here soon!
