The restaurant was cold and the noise level was high. The indoor dining area is small, and packed with several tables for 6-8 people. We were a party of two, so we had a mostly-silent meal because the larger parties were so loud that we struggled to have our own conversation. Perhaps it would be wise to have the larger groups out on the noisy patio, and have more small party tables in the tiny indoor space.

I have decided to give 5 star/outstanding ratings to only "outstanding" elements. Accordingly 3 stars is fine, it is not very good or outstanding. Corkage fee was quoted at $30.00. Were took the bottle we brought with us home. I don't know maybe that is a typical corkage fee now. I specifically requested anchovies on my Cesar salad, was told they were available but did not get them. When I told the server the salad didn't have ant anchovies they responded "I know. I won't charge you for them". To which I replied "good decision because I am not paying for them". It was not a contentious exchange. They never rushed us which was very nice. My carbonara was a little dry. The short ribs were good. Desert was fine. If street parking is unavailable park in the rear north of the restaurant. Parking on the south side of the restaurant is $2.00 per hour.

Food and service were really good! However I will never go back until the parking issue is resovlved, Parking is horriblre!!!! Not enough spaces and you have to drive all over a pay parking lot for 20 minutes just to find a spot. There are theaters, multiple restaurants and businesses that all use this parking. I saw two guys almost in a fist fight and multiple people yelling about spaces. Just horrible and dangerous. The city really made a mess of the parking in this area for sure.

This was our first time at Ciao Pasta but it won’t be our last! Service was excellent, our waiter gave sound input on various dishes and they were great about letting us try a couple wines before deciding to go with the red on their specials list (it was superb!). The bread that they bring was perfect with the seasoned oil we topped it with. Zucchini blossoms were well balanced and the marinara outstanding. Calamari was tasty and a sizable portion. We thoroughly enjoyed the homemade pasta special with spicy sausage and the peccheri was also delicious. We also enjoyed the short rib entree. Don’t forget to order limoncello for desert. So good!!
