Ciao Bella Hamilton

We checked this place out on a Friday night without reservations, so we had to wait for 30 minutes! The place was packed, but they did give us a great table! Server was attentive and we didn’t feel rushed or neglected, perfect balance. A great place to celebrate an occasion, many tables were celebrating birthdays! The eggplant parm was so delicious! The pizzas were also tasty, but nothing too special, there are better places for pizza specifically in Hamilton, however, overall this place is worth a visit and I will be back to try their pastas or other apps!

What a gem! I literally can’t wait to go back! Was it the cocktails? 🤗 I was told of this restaurant from a neighbour and was advised to get reservations; she was right! With a week in advance I could not get my exact time I wanted but was lucky to get a reservation. The restaurant is stylish and elegant with comfortable seating. It’s a fine dining experience with reasonable prices. The food is beyond delicious! The cocktails were great too! The Bartender was working up a sweat shaking up all the drinks lol. We enjoyed appetizers, main course of a seafood pasta and a branzino dish. So much flavor! Paired w a precocktail and then wine at dinner - delish. With a bit of room left and leftovers on hand we ordered dessert. The earl grey cheesecake was recommended but the chocolate bread pudding took our breath away. Lovely and crunchy on the outside. You will not be disappointed!

Just wow. Attended a birthday dinner here last night and every dish was better than the last. My only complaint is that the Spinach and artichoke dip was sold out! I will be returning to try. Everything else was served with pleasure and we were allowed to split the bill as we saw fit.

My first time dining at Ciao Bella’s and it will definitely not be my last! Our server Jesse was so kind, attentive, and very knowledgeable about the menu. During our dining a manager came over to quality check our experience as well and we were overall very impressed with the service. All of the food and drinks we got were delicious! My favourite was the affogato espresso martini, cherry margarita, arancini’s and goat cheese with pear pizza. Can’t wait to come back.

My friend and I went here for lunch, the food was really good, the drinks were great, the interior is gorgeous. Our server was amazing, very polite and had good energy. The only complaint we had is that our table was in the absolute corner next to a wall which felt very hidden and we were not able to enjoy the ambiance and click cute pictures like we had planned. When we arrived for our 3.30 reservation the entire place was empty with the exception of two other people. After we were seated, we asked the manager (at least I think it was the manager) if they were not fully booked and if it was possible to move us to another table. They asked why because they said that to them it was a great table with privacy, I tried to explain that we wanted to enjoy the ambiance but they said our original table was worst and they gave us a better one already, we didn’t argue after that. My friend and myself are both women of colour and to us it felt like we were being hidden in a small little corner, because of that. If the restaurant was at capacity we would have totally understood why our table couldn’t be moved. But when we left around 5pm more than half of the restaurant was still empty, so it seemed like they were not completely booked and could have tried to move us to another table for a better experience.

First time trying Ciao Bella to celebrate a special occasion. Beautiful decor and super cozy inside (even though some tables are a little too close together). We tried grilled calamari, warm olives, meatballs, a pizza, branzino, and the orchiette pasta. Oh and of course, we had to try the tiramisu for dessert. The food and drinks were delicious and we will definitely be returning again soon

Came here on their opening night and it was amazing! The service was great, the decor and overall construction was beautiful, I also live in the area so seeing all the effort put into the build really paid off! The attention to detail in the decoration is lovely. All the dishes and drinks were delicious and had a very high rating from my partner and I. We are already planning to come back a few more times! I highly recommend to check this place out for date nights, if family is coming in to visit, work dinners, etc, great for any occasion!

I might change this rating in the future as they are trying to figure out everything Wrong dishes are sent. Appetizers were very nice but main course were not. Drinks took forever to come. Missing items from wine section on menu I will try them again after few months but I can’t compare them to first class places Overall it was a three star ⭐️ place Very nice decoration but lacks lots of details I wish them luck
