No concept on service – Had an irritating night here. First and last time we will ever eat at this restaurant. It?s surprising how lame and tacky this place is. The man who greeted us at the door never cracked a smile or had any greeting for us. It took 10 minutes just to get anyone to our table. Then the drinks took another 10 minutes. Our meals were longer. They must have forgotten about us. When my dinner was served it was soooo hot, it never cooled down. Obliviously reheated in the kitchen. Never once did the waitress as... read more
Very nice local feel with Italy and PNW fusion – I am surprised with the not so good reviews. I have been to Ciao Vito with my husband several times and also with friends. Their wine list is very well thought out. Prices are reasonable. The food was amazing. We had calamari and salad with blue cheese, both prepared very well and incredibly fresh. I had the flank steak, my husband had the seafood special, sea bass. I can't explain what they did to the bass, but it was the best piece of fish I have tasted in Portland metro in ... read more
Terrible service... trying to save every penny... – I went to CV with a group of friends. Our reservations were intact and when we arrived the table was set and ready, this was awesome, and I thought it was going to be a great culinary experience. We sat for a while and two different servers took our drink orders...I ordered a diet coke which came promptly in a skinny glass...about 8 oz I would estimate. As the rest of our party arrived and we looked over the menu someone said "isn't this an Italian place? Shouldn't there be... read more
What a CLUSTERF*CK – Reservations mean nothing at this place. The hostess seemed very inexperienced and just keeps batting her eyes as she said sorry over and over. We headed to the bar to wait to be seated. After dropping $30 on 2 rounds of drinks, the hostess finds us just over an HOUR after we made our reservation. She says sorry (again) and says that they want to buy us a drink. Of course we had just ordered one, the bartender looked at her like I am not refunding anything. Low and behold no free drink or mention of it e... read more
GREAT happy hour! – If you have not tried Ciao Vito's happy hour, what are you waiting for? Monday through Wednesday they do happy hour until 8 pm. It's great for professionals like us who can't ever seem to leave work before 6. My boyfriend and I went for an early V-Day celebration last week and had a great experience. THe prices were great and the portions were generous. We had an appetizer, 2 "entrees", dessert, and 4 drinks for $50!! The beer selection is well rounded and the cocktails are strong. I'm not sure why people... read more
You have to try this place! – This Alberta has become one of our favorite places for dinner out over the past couple of years. Last Saturday night sealed the deal for us. When we arrived for our 7:00 reservation we were told that our table wasn't quite ready yet. While we waited in the bar area our hostess approached us and "comped" the two glasses of wine that we were enjoying. A few minutes later, a complimentary basket of crispy calmari arrived for our munching pleasure. All of this was done with no prompting or complaini... read more
MY FAVORITE PLACE TO GO!!!! – Ciao Vito is definately one of my FAVORITE places to go for a nice dinner out. I live no where near the location, but will make the drive out there when I'm feeling like really good food! The steak is the BEST!!!! And I never even liked brussel sprouts until I had them here, who knew they could be so good?!?! The food is amazing, wine amazing, and I don't really remember the service that well, but I don't go to restruants for service, I go for great food and some help getting it to me! I would a... read more
Great casual place – We always sit at the bar and we have a great time. Daisy is awesome! Sometimes it gets super busy and service can be delayed, but isn't this normal? Everyone is always really nice to us and we are always well taken care of. I love the razor clams and have a hard time not ordering them. This place may not know your socks off but it is definitely a good, solid neighborhood restaurant.
Great food but the service will leave a bad taste in your mouth – We have eaten there 9 times. The last three times we have had very awkward service and have only come back for the food. The receptionist is snobbish, inexperienced, and makes unprofessional decisions not to mention she treats you like you are a lower class citizen if you don't have reservations. We asked for a special table in the back next to the window and were told no because it was a 4 top and we only had two people. However, no one else sat there the tim... read more
