👍👍 The server was really nice for accomodating my request. I thought I didn’t want bread so I opted out but then I realized I wanted one so he went out of his way to talk to the kitchen staff. Appreciated that. Pasta is always, consistently good here! Definitely go here if you want a quick (but good)... People often mention pasta, pizza, good, great, time, spinach, delicious, Italian, bread, order,

    Try their pastas! You will not go wrong ordering any of these on their menu! Always get the spinach with bread appetizer. Tried their spinach pizza for the first time, man it was really, really good! Bang for the buck! The spinach dressing is very creamy and the balance of the cheese and dough is just right. Their veggie grilled sandwich is a must order if you are trying to go 'meat-less' this new year. But wait... that fall of the bone osso buco is just wonderfully seasoned, lemony, oily with that bone marrow ready to be mixed on that cup of garlic rice on the side, yum yum! If you are a coffee lover, get their brewed coffee! Really good, very strong, and goes well with their frothy milk served on the side.

Appreciated that. Pasta is always, consistently good here! Definitely go here if you want a quick (but good) fix of italian food P.S. wish they had tiramisu good for 1-2 people! Not a whole plate. I wanted to get tiramisu but the portion is for a whole family lol

    They serve great Italian food but the seating capacity is a bit cramped and limited. During GCQ/Alert Level 2: Great food, consistent in quality and taste. Service staff was very attentive. They also gave me a complimentary loyalty card in celebration of their 24th anniversary 😊 Aug 2022: First time to try the Sliced Beef Tenderloin, it was so delicious! Seasoned to perfection 😊 Jan 2023: Craving for spinach dip and beef tenderloin. First time to try the Pasta Ala Norma.

    Superb customer service + great food = perfect combo 😍 It was my family's first time to try Cibo. We ordered a variety of pasta, spinach dip with bread (appetizer), and 1 pizza (spinach). [SERVICE] In the middle of waiting for our orders, the waiter informed us they could no longer accomodate our pizza order as they ran out of dough. It would take hours to wait since they needed to let dough rise. Moments later they came back and said they've requested pizza dough from the Cibo nearby (Glorrieta). They could have foregone the hassle and just continued with the rest of our orders, but their "going out of the way" made my family feel valued as customers. Apart from that, they were also attentive in refilling our glasses of water. [FOOD] As for the food, everything tasted great. We loved the truffle pasta. The choice of spaghettini noodles were a great match. Shredded cheese and fresh mushrooms 👌 We loved it so much we ordered another round. Pasta Telefono noodles were aldente. The sauce was just right. I'd expect it to be sour, but it wasn't, which is a great thing since the tomato-basil-cheese complemented each other well. No ingredient overpowered another. The carbonara (forgot the name written on the menu, but it was described like carbonara) was creamy and milky. Could use a bit more salt & pepper though, but nonetheless still great. The serving size even for solo (pasta) could already be for sharing (esp if youre ordering several dishes). If you'll order the bigger portions, they'll ask you if you'd already like to have portions separated— which I find efficient and convenient since you wouldnt have to ask for an extra plate & manually split your food. Each pasta dish also comes with bread on the side. The spinach dip appetizer was big enough to stretch out for more breads to spread. I think another serving of the small crunchy bread is Php65. What we did is spread it on the spinach pizza instead since they used the same topping. The pizza was hearty. You can tell by the charring & the quality cheese base they used. It wasn't the heavy kind of pizza that makes you feel stuffed after eating. [PRICE] The price point is quite on the pricey edge, but considering the quality of ingredients and its freshness, I'd say it's reasonable. [SUMMARY] Overall, it was such a pleasant experience.Would definitely go back for more pasta, pizza, and the great customer service.

    I had lunch here for the first time and I was satisfied with the food and their service. The place is casual and relaxed. I only tried their pasta with goat cheese, as recommended by my officemate, and it was really good. The food is a bit expensive, but I think it is about reasonable considering the serving size and the taste of the food. They also have some fruit shakes which are perfect during the dry season.

    The food here is delicious. I really like their pasta and tenderloin. The food prices are quite expensive though it is worth it. The staff are also proactive so it's easy to order. I would like to see improvement on the seats inside. I would like to have some comfy couch to relax on like in every other italian restaurants.

    We’re fond of Cibo’s zola spinach dip pizza, the quality of the ingredients manifests in every bite of the pizza. We also ordered pasta, soups and tenderloin steak. We don’t feel bloated each time we dine at Cibo, even if we had a full meal. The chef and owner Margarita Fores was also at the resto at the time of our visit.

    I deeply regret choosing this restaurant. My husband and I had brunch here, and the pasta that cost 575₱ was highly salty, making it difficult to eat. Despite this, we still ate it because it was expensive, and we didn't want to complain - I didn't want to ruin our date as a couple. The hot Americano coffee that cost 179₱ tasted like cheap Nescafé that only costs a few cents in the store. Even the coffee from the supermarket tastes better than this one. I was confused about the round pastry with cream cheese that cost 120₱, but I'll give it a 6/10 I'm not a big fan of sweets. The iced caffe latte for 229₱ during brunch, contains a lot of milk which makes it taste like baby's powdered milk. I was very disappointed with the drink, especially considering the amount we spent on the entire brunch, which was 1,200₱. Overall, the food was not worth the price we paid. Even now, I still feel nauseous from the experience.

    Dined here last May 2023. The food here is delicious. I liked their carbonara and tenderloin. Cons: - the food is kinda pricey but masasarap naman. Worth it if you are dining in large groups. - Medyo hindi lang ganun ka comfy yung mga seats nila where you can relax like in other italian restaurants.

    I live quite near to Greenbelt and visit the entire complex atleast 5 days a week, to dine, grocery and shopping for necessities. Often I passed Cibo and didn't have an appeal to visit the restaurant, first looks always crowded, second the impression is its a canteen due to the industrial decor and aluminum furniture. Not a criticism, only my impression. Yesterday I guess being a holiday the place didn't look so I had the courage to try. I ordered, San Mig Light P125, Roast Pork Ribs P759, Insalata Pacifica P419, Classico Spaghettini P355, 2 glasses of Santa Cristina P658, Gelato Affogato P349. Price point of food and drinks are definitely on the high side specially due to the comfort level and ambience. But the service and quality of the offers easily make up for it. Pork Ribs as you see in the photos, before and after, were well seasoned and prepared, but there was so little to eat due to the heavy bones. Salad was refreshing but portion was rather small for the price. Best tasting item was the pasta. By looking at the displays in the restaurant they use good quality Italian DeCecco dry pasta, and chefs are well trained to cook the pasta aldente with the right amount of garlic and olive oil. This dish was far superior tasting than other establishments like Lusdo, Italianni's etc. Gelato portion was too big for me, but the Lavazza Espresso shot was well appreciated. Sir Arnold and the crew had the entire place under control to extend friendly and professional services. Rating of 4 is due to the ambience. I'll be back soon.

    I always go there to eat the penne Bolognese, really tasty as well the Parma ham Rucola pizza. You must try. Place in the mall not so nice but the food is great

    If you are into Italian food then this is another place for you. A lot of people eat here because of its open style eating area making it look affordable but before you sit down and order better take a look at the price on the menu stand in front. It's just as pricey as other Italian diners. We ordered pasta and beef. It was a little too oily for us though. Got a hard time finishing the dish. See the photos. But that was us. I know a lot of people love food swimming in oil and butter. Well this is definitely your place.

    Had time to spare and was looking for the best tiramisu in the country. Hence we tried their tiramisu. It was more like a coffee sansrival with caramel glaze. It is delicious as a sansrival but is not a traditional tiramisu.

  • 5/5 Stephen Michael C. 6 years ago on Google
    A very decent, unpretentious Filipino-owned Italian restaurant. One of the few restaurants I know that have adapted, yet have remained consistently impressive, through time.

  • 4/5 Claudio P. 1 year ago on Google
    Maybe the best Italian food in Makati, with Italian recipes very well cooked. Avoid the spritz anyway 😉, the rest is absolutely ok.

  • 5/5 Nikko M. 5 years ago on Google
    Delicious food, that's all good. 5 stars because I knocked down a mango shake glass by accident and it broke into pieces - they didn't charge me for it, and they replaced the drink with a new one without any additional charge. Now what restaurant does that? Only Cibo! (I'm not encouraging customers to knock their own drinks halfway into drinking them)

  • 4/5 Ramon Jerico G. 4 years ago on Google
    The food was great. The steak was really good and reasonably priced. However, the Porchetta was disappointing; I think we paid a little too much for it. Nothing special about it and the serving was really small. We'll probably come back here just for the steak. :-)

    Margherita Pizza: I availed Eatitgo's 50% off to try it and the taste was perfect! It's such a simple topping yet I always look for it because it tastes refreshing. I generally prefer thick crust but their thin crust is pretty good too. I suggest eating it as fast as you can because the crust underneath gets soft. Service: A+ The servers were attentive, quick, and friendly throughout my stay. The ordering process, waiting for my meal, and getting proactive water refills perfected by stay! My order taker/server was light to talk with and checked on my food. I'd definitely love to return to this particular branch!

  • 5/5 Lori N. 1 year ago on Google
    Food is great, had blavk olive bacon pasta, minestrone, and prosciuto pizza. Big serving, price a bit expensive but worth the service and flavor. No pics of soup and pizza, ate before I remembered to snap!

  • 5/5 Giacomo 1 year ago on Google
    Nice Italian pizza and pasta. They make a good espresso as well! I always go to them and they have branches in the main malls

  • 4/5 Lucas G. 5 years ago on Google
    Good italian food. But they dont know how to cook a steak. We ordered medium rare and what we got was medium well to well done. They said they’d replace it and we thought that for sure they would undercook it. True enough, the steak that we got was bloody as hell. We didnt bother to complain a second time as the cook’s might just get pissed. The pasta was delicious.

  • 4/5 Leonard L. 5 years ago on Google
    Wow! They have great steak that for 2 people with cheap prices, worth to have a try and also their spinach toast bread as snack, coffee and mango shake and so on, a must try if visiting to Greenbelt 5~ Cozy ambience and also friendly staffs as well.
