Did not have a plan for a Friday night dinner so Yelped this place and was pleasantly delighted. The Ciccio was apparently opened a late 2022 by the owners of Mio Nonno, another favorite of mine. The place was bustling when we arrived. Honestly, it was a bit loud for my taste. The bar had open seating and opted for that instead of waiting. After picking a wine, a decent wine selection btw, started off with the Focaccia and the Polenta, which is a must have. The creamy sauce with mushrooms & roasted garlic was AWESOME .. one of the best I have had lately. I had to hold off the wait staff as I cleaned the sauce off the plate with the Focaccia ... We were eyeing the Ravioli, but opted to get go slow with the Rucola ... This was another beauty ... Some may consider the Arugula an acquired taste, but with the julianed apples, pine nuts and the honey balsamic .. this was curated perfectly. By this time, we were getting full so opted for another appetizer instead of an entree. Vito suggested having the Gnocchi Frittos .. Was an odd dish, I thought, but loved the fresh mozzarella and the warm fried dough. The Prosciutto could be eased off a bit, to make it easy to eat. Finally, we split the Crème Brûlée ... It was nice to cap off a nice meal. The sugar of the dessert was brûléed just thin enough so that we could have it with every bite. All in all, it was a great way to spend Friday evening at this place. Was nice to see the owners cooking in the kitchen. Other than it being a tad bit loud on the inside, loved the Food, the Staff & Service, & the Ambiance ... Now need figure how to split my time between Mio Nonno and the Ciccio :-) read more
