Avaliação da contribuiçãoPhenomenal experience Kyle chef-owner does amazing work here. They have small plates kind of like tapas. Me and my wife split 4 items and desserts. They recommend between 3-5 items I would say that's on par. Everything here was fresh and delivered as it was finished there was no waiting under heat lamp it was amazing. The beet crostini was spectacular I'm not even a huge beet fan, My wife said be adventurous and oh my that was so good. The duck and mushroom confit were both very decadent and well prepared. Pan roasted shrimp had this amazing sauce very well done. The two desserts of chocolate cake and olive oil cake was the perfect topper. Great service. I would highly recommend and would love to come back.
We had an amazing dinner at Ciao two nights ago. It was by far the best meal we had on our trip to Maine. So much flavor in every bite! We were so busy eating that I didn?t get a picture of every plate but the mushrooms, shrimp, pork? everything was so good! The service was wonderful, too. Great experience all around. This place is special.
Very solid tapas restaurant. It's a small restaurant and quite crowded at dinner time. Wait staff is very warm and welcoming. The food was decent, but the presentation is most impressive. Every dish is plated perfectly and looks like a work of art. We ordered an assortment of tapas dishes. The ingredients used, I could tell was very fresh. The grilled hanger steak had very good beefy flavor, but was cooked medium well to well done. The beet and gin cured salmon looked lovely and tasted wonderful. The yogurt sauce paired with it was just right. Anchovy crostini was my favorite. Overall a very good restaurant.
I would order everything single thing on this menu if given the chance! Everything was superb. And the olive oil lemon blueberry cake? Insanely delicious.
A tapas style restaurant, CIAO offers an eclectic selection of small plates to choose from and share. For a party of 3, we ordered 6 plates, and every dish was tasty. Worth particular mention (for me) are the Fried Cauliflower, the Lamb Crostini, and the Crispy Pork Belly. We thought about ordering some more food for the hungrier among us, but opted to go for desserts instead of which we ordered 2. The Pain Perdu is quite good! The service was attentive and friendly, and the staff/kitchen thoughtfully paced out our food order into courses. In terms of drinks, their specialty cocktail The Local was refreshing, featuring Maine blueberry vodka and a number of blueberries. CIAO is a welcome respite from the otherwise touristy bustle of Bar Harbor, where seemingly most restaurants are (over)advertising their lobster dishes as they vie for attention. CIAO, on the other hand, has no lobster on the menu, but arguably provides a more delightful culinary experience with understated authenticity.
