What a find in Myrtle. Although small, this restaurant has great ambiance and wonderful food. Don't miss the off-the-menu specials. I thought the service was good, the food excellent, the portions more than ample, and the price moderate. I have not eaten at many Italian restaurants in Myrtle, but this has to be way on the top of the list.... More

Four of us went there last Saturday night for dinner. We could get only get a 5:30 reservation as it is very popular. We started with salad and by the time we were half done the waiter started pushing us to finish. The main meal arrived while the salad dishes were cleared! I ordered veal Marsala and to say it...

Took 12 golfers here last week ....Ate here the first night and everyone asked me to change future dinning arrangements as they wanted to return here 3 nights later. Grouper francias to die for , veal marsala and picata and nightly specials all went over well. Not one negative comment in the crowd. Also, Faith, our waitress was knowledgeable, smiling... More

Love to be able to rate Ciao "Excellent" but I just can't do it. Yes the food was super, OK it was excellent, and the service was good and we will definitely be back. I'd go so far to say the food was probably the best Italian food I've had in any restaurants south of NY. But, the first thing... More

I love Ciao! They have great food, and wonderful daily specials. The bread for dipping is amazing and I have never had a problem with service or the food. I love taking customers there for lunch. I will definitely be back again!

My wife ordered the Shrimp Scampi it was good but not great. The service was excellent as she could tell we needed to be... More

Alhtough there are a multitude of restaurants in the Myrtle Beach area, we try to eat at some of the locally owned establishments and avoid the national franchises when possible. This restaurant was a great choice. Our server was attentive and profession. The food was served promptly and it was delicious. We started with the calamari. My husband had the... More
