About

Welcome to Ciao Cielo Italian Restaurant

Story

A RELATIVE newcomer to Port Melbourne’s Bay Street strip is Ciao Cielo (it translates as ‘‘Hello Sky’’), a neat 35-seater co-owned by Bryan Nelson, a former head chef at the esteemed A la Grecque in Aireys Inlet for three years. Nelson has also worked under Paul Raynor at the Stokehouse and Ryan Clift at Walters Wine Bar. The food is ‘‘unpretentious modern Italian’’, says co-owner Kate Dickins, a chef by training who runs front of house and takes charge of desserts.

Reviews
This place serve such delicious food! We had lunch in the pizzeria which was nice, cost spot next to the open kitchen. We had the confit duck arancini which was very yummy and the zucchini flowers which was also pretty good. The porchetta pizza was surprisingly the standout, really good flavour combinations and very well baked. The big boy salami was spot on and super delicious. The spanner crab spaghetti was very nice also, Al dente and quite tasty missing something punchy to bring it all together.nnThe cocktails were also all very nice, the Basil Bello was refreshing and unique and I really enjoyed the non-alcoholic peach and lemon float. Definitely worth a return visit, especially the pizza.
Loved our dining experience at Ciao Cielo! Also liked the idea that it also caters to a more casual dining experience outdoors too. We didn’t make a booking and were lucky to have an available table! The venue itself has a beautiful ambience with its fittings, lighting and soft background music. Staff were friendly when they greeted us and shown to our table. Our food also came out in good time and I loved the flavour of the Inked pasta with spinner crab and chilli! I highly recommend it. Thank you for a wonderful evening and will definitely be back! Compliments to the team
I had a dinner here on a Friday night. The staff were extremely friendly and lovely. The restaurant is very wheelchair and pram accessible. We started off with the beef tartare and the freshly shucked oysters. The entree’s were so fresh and delicious.nWe ordered the shhh! Pizza and the organic gnocchi with oxtail ragu. Both were fantastic.nWe finished our meal with their tiramisu, which was amazing!n10/10 for food and accessible.nFor my see my full review in Instagram @adventurewheels_melb
Fast service delicious Italian food love the pasta with red sauce. Vegetarian options. Very good fries. Tirumisu is to die for. Would love to see some non alcoholic drinks in the menu however the owner was very receptive to my suggestion what a lively man he works there as a chef. Good vibes.
We didn’t have a booking so we sat in the marquee. The restaurant section looked really nice. The marquee bit, less so. We ordered 2 glasses of shiraz ‘Schist Rock’ which wasn’t great. We inquired if it was perhaps a bottle that had been open a bit too long. The waiter checked and informed us it had not been but offered to swap it out for something else. We thanked him but declined as not to make a fuss.nnWe had the pork ragu which was delicious and the Old Fave pizza. The pizza came out but it was not the one we ordered. We deliberated whether we’d just eat it anyways but decided we did want the pizza we ordered and paid for. When I brought it back to the pizzeria area I politely informed the waiters that there had been a mistake. I was met with confusion from a couple of wait staff then sort of ignored whilst the wait staff and kitchen staff went back and forth trying to figure it out. I stood there waiting for an acknowledgement but got nothing.nnClose to another 10 minutes go by and our correct pizza arrives. No acknowledgment of their mistake. No apology. No top of wine to have with our pizza. Nothing.nnI’d give the food 4.5/5 if I could. It was great. The ambience, or lack thereof, of the marquee and specifically the service seriously let this place down. The food was great and the indoor restaurant section looked super cosy.
