Ciao - 11 Nov 2011

We made a visit to the new Italian restaurant on the east side of Wichita--Ciao.  The place was filled when we went there on Friday night at about 7:20 and were told there was a 45 minute wait.  We went to the bar--of course.  The bar was filled but we got seats pretty quickly.  We ordered a gin dirty martini with blue cheese olives and a dry vodka martini with blue olives.  Both were shaken.  The martinis were excellent.  They were shaken correctly and very nicely done.  The blue cheese olives were freshly packed.

We needed some basis for our drinking so we ordered the combo appetizer.  Wow.  There was calamari, chicken fingers, fried provolone, fried Spanish ravioli, fried zucchini, artichoke dip and they gave us fresh bread and dipping oil.  The bread and oil was great.  The appetizers were all fried, but the food was good--and lots.  We decided that was all we needed and went home.  We didn't get to try anything else.  We put it on the list again, and we recommend it.  Go try out Ciao.
