We ate at ciao Bella’s for the first time. All I can say is the experience was AMAZING! The food was extraordinary! We had Pollo Martini. The service and ambiance were also exceptional. I can’t praise the experience enough. They also celebrated our birthdays with a surprise dessert. Looking forward to our next visit.
