Many times in North End. First time at Ciao Roma - great food; great service. Based on reviews, I expected great food, and it was fantastic Italian without disappointment. Even beyond expectations, we celebrated our anniversary and the details Ciao Roma paid attention to were exceptional. I'm usually hesitant to give more than 4/5, but no hesitation here on 5/5. Well done! Thank you, and we will return. 🙂
