What Vee Wanzo likes about Il Ciao:
Been here since my eldest son was just a baby, always had a pleasant service, very friendly and make us feel very welcome. I loooove their chicken caesar salad. I think it's the best I've ever had. The dressing is just really good. Their pasta is delicious and of course I would never miss their chilli mussel. Will always be our fav italian place . View all feedback. What fatelf doesn't like about Il Ciao:
Surprised people rate this so highly, perhaps the chef had a bad day but my group of seven, including an Italian all rated the food as average. In fact there is a local cafe with Indian chefs who do a far better job when it comes to Italian dishes. Very disappointed given how popular this venue is. Service was OK, quite noisy but good space between tables. Unlikely to return. View all feedback.

Il Ciao in Applecross is a hidden gem known for its delicious and traditional Italian dishes. The restaurant is popular among families and couples, offering a cozy atmosphere and friendly service. The menu features a variety of options, ranging from pasta to wood-fired pizzas, all made with quality ingredients. While the food can sometimes be inconsistent, many diners appreciate the overall experience. The addition of gluten-free pasta options has been well-received, although some customers would like to see more gluten-free choices on the menu. With reasonable prices and a good selection of wines, Il Ciao is a go-to spot for a casual Italian night out.
