This place is delicious and cute! I ordered for the first time on Uber Eats and was so mind blown I went back for round 2. The Caramel lotus Croffle is the perfect texture and sweetness. We also tried the Ferrero Rocher Mouse and the mousse was perfect! The service on dining in was fantastic this evening. Cheery and knowledgeable. I can't wait to try everything read more

Need to try other mousse. Strawberry heart mousse and mango pillow mousse were disappointing. I picked this place bc I thought they would compare to the very fancy store I saw in Japan but they do not compare in terms of tastes or texture. I do love a well crafted mousse so I'll come back for something else read more

A very unique experience with something for everyone! Pastries? They got them! Mousse? They have SEVERAL flavors! Gelato? They got whole freezer full of different flavors for you! Want a Waffle? They got Waffle makers and can hook you up! What about a Crepe? They got all kinds of flavors of those as well! Like I said, there is literally something for about every taste here. The one thing that seemed a bit awkward on my visit was that while they have a cafeteria style line, there was no one working the line. On my visit I really wanted a Crepe, but it became painfully obvious to me that it would probably take a long while unless I got one of the pre-made items, so I found myself settling for a Chocolate Mousse. It wasn't my first choice but it was pretty respectable and I would order it again. read more

The restaurant/bakery is very clean and has a good layout with outdoor seating. The desserts are beautiful and presentable. The blueberry, strawberry and mushroom one were all very good and had unique flavors/texture. The fruit matched the flavor of the dessert except the mushroom is banana flavored. I personally didn't like the mango one that we got. It was kind of bitter to me. They are $6-$8 each which can add up quick. But they do serve each one on its own and on a real plate, not plastic or disposable, which I liked A LOT! The workers are all very nice and friendly. No rush to make you order and even recommend based off what type of flavors you like. read more

We visited this place expecting an Italian spot based on the name, but it turned out to be a different style of cuisine and ambiance than we anticipated. Service was good, and we were offered a Warbat dessert as sample, which was excellent. We also tried the Dubai chocolate smoothie, but it was overly sweet and hard to finish. The Moroccan tea was fine, but the pistachio nest baklava had an artificial-tasting pistachio cream read more

This was our family's first visit to Ciao, and it didn't disappoint. They offer a wide variety of sweets, from gelato and macarons to mousse and Turkish delight. Everything looked delicious, and it was especially nice to see several clearly designated gluten-free options. Ciao is counter-service, and we were helped quickly by a friendly team member. I ordered the gluten-free pistachio mousse, which featured a white chocolate shell filled with creamy mousse and ribbons of pistachio paste. It was tasty. The rest of our party enjoyed their desserts as well, although one person thought the strawberry napoleon had a slightly artificial, extract-like flavor. There are plenty of items we'd still like to try, so we'll definitely be back. We visited on a Wednesday night, and it was surprisingly busy. read more

There's so many desserts to choose from & they're so pretty too. The worker gave some recommendations of the most popular. I ended up getting the strawberry mousse & the cookies n' creme cheesecake. The strawberry mousse was a little frozen. The exterior chocolate was a hard to crack with my fork. The jam in the middle was icy. It wasn't too sweet & I wished the mousse had a stronger strawberry flavor. The cookies n' creme cheesecake was yummy. It was a little small. read more

I will try this one more time as they have many options beyond mousse + ordering through doordash. This place is nice inside but when I came on Saturday afternoon its was loud and had a dozen children screaming and running around. Not the vibe I expected from a high end dessert place. Service is bad and chaotic. There's a counter person to order from and they will take your items. Both times I came someone helped me pick out a mousse but I was not offered the chance to pick something from the baked good area. On my second visit I selected my item but it somehow got lost behind the counter and was not at the checkout. There were lots of people running around behind the counter, pretty disorganized. The mousse are just flavored with extract. Only a few have layers of fruit or other components like chocolate shell. They are beautiful molded shapes sprayed with coco butter but are basic in texture. read more

This is my family's favorite dessert place. We've tried other places but we always wish we had come here instead. Everyone who works here is incredibly friendly and their pastry chef is so talented. The hazelnut mushroom, Nutella cocoa bean, espresso cocoa bean, cannoli, and gelato are all delicious. I wish they were closer - we drive in from Rockwall every week or so, but it's well worth the drive. read more

I looove a sweet treat. It's nice to have a place like this closer to me! I remember having to drive 50+ minutes just to get my hands on fruit-shaped pastries. The tiramisu was so good and sweet, and not too heavy on the espresso taste- just how I like it. We also got a cookie butter mousse pastry and yummmm! Service was great and we didn't feel rushed. This spot offers so many different desserts and drinks, definitely give it a try! read more

Biscoff cheesecake was delicious & service was impeccable. Very clean and comfortable space

This place has so many good looking and delicious choices of desserts to choose. The girl who served us, was very patient, courteous. I ordered the Ube coconut mousse and my husband had the biscotti mousse and both were very delicious. Highly recommend read more

Omg, this place has something for everyone! Gelato, check. Cookies, check. Crepes, check. Cheesecake, check. Mousse, check. Ample seating to sit and enjoy the treats, double check. We happened upon this place while visiting Bilad next door. I am so glad we stopped in to take a peek. We ordered at the counter and paid at the register. The cookies are priced by weight, everything else is individually priced. Everything we tried was fresh and tasted great! We will definitely return for sure! read more

I have been waiting for this place to open up since I saw them put the sign up. Not because I'm a sweet girly but more so because it just look cute and Tiffany blue is my favorite color and this was just right up my alley. Now that they are finally open, I was able to go inside and oh my God it is so pretty. The place was so neat and clean. They had excellent customer service. Everybody was cheerful and greeting me asking me if I needed any help or any explanations they answered all of my questions. I did end up, trying the coconut moose, and it was really tasty, but I wasn't what I expected. I didn't realize it was like ice cream. It had a white chocolate shell coconut, mousse ice cream. It really had a lot going on and it tasted really good. read more

First time coming here with my boyfriend since we needed a sweet treat after a hard day, to heal our inner child. First impression, very nice place with ample seating, and everyone was very kind helping out. Not too crowded at 9pm on a Tuesday, but enough people there keeping the staff occupied to give us time to have a nice look around. We ended up getting some gelato each, and we each also picked out a sweet treat. The gelato was nice and creamy with a rich flavor, some of the best I've ever had! For the treats, my boyfriend got a pistachio cannoli and I got a mini Oreo cheesecake. He really liked his cannoli, but I got a flavor overload from the gelato vs the cheesecake. Don't recommend pairing salted caramel and Oreo, but they were great on their own. Way more expensive than I would've liked, but definitely worth it in the end for the flavors, selection, quality, and ambiance. Will be coming back again if we're in the area again, or if we have any more self healing we need to do lol read more

This is one of my new favorite spots in all of Richardson and it's home to the best dessert I have ever had, the strawberry mousse. Every thing I've tried here is to die for. Everything is made by hand and even though they havn't even had their grand opening, they have tons and tons of delicious options. The biscoff mousse was fantastic, all the cannolis are so good, and the owner, Abool is so kind. I love this spot and will be back many times over. The vibes are also very chill and it's a great place to gather with friends read more

Safe to say I'm obsessed.I've already been here about 6 times, and they've only been open for 10 days for their soft opening. This is one place that actually lives up to the social media hype (which almost never happens). I wish it stayed a hidden gem because the weekend lines are definitely about to be crazy. The place itself is so classy, it has that cozy European vibe. And everything looks as good as it tastes... honestly even better. You can tell everything is made fresh daily from scratch. Abood, the owner, is genuinely so sweet. He comes out to the tables and checks on everyone to make sure everything is perfect, and even the manager is just as nice and welcoming. You can really tell how much they care about every single customer. The chef has over 40 years of experience, and it shows in every bite. I came in early one day wanting an almond croissant and they didn't have any out yet, but he personally came to tell me he could have a fresh batch ready in 15 minutes if I was okay waiting... like?? That kind of service is rare. I'll definitely be back!! read more
