| - We made the mistake of trying to go to Cibo on New Year's Day, but luckily Yelp showed me This place close by. I called to see how late they were open and whoever answered the phone was so jolly and obviously Italian, we drove right over. The service is slow, but It didn't strike me as disorganized. It seems cultural, like you're sitting in their house while they prepare dinner. I had gnocchi pesto which was delicious, my boyfriend had the prosciutto crudo pizza, and my friends had the arugula salad and the chicken parmigiana. Everyone loved it, we loved the atmosphere, the portions, the flavors, and the fact that we got to walk in through the back :). We also had creme brûlée and cappuccino to round it out, and we left very satisfied. I think diners these days are too demanding, and expect people from other cultures to jump when they snap their fingers. It's disappointing. I loved every moment in this restaurant. If you go, expect to have to make conversation with your friends. Maybe also chew slower, and savor the time you're sharing.
