Just had a pasta and entree from Ciccio’s. My partner had the lasagne. He said it was the second best Lasagne he’s ever had, first best being his Italian mother’s version! That was a huge compliment from him as he has always said Lasagnes at Italian restaurants are usually terrible. He said this was like homemade. Well done Ciccio’s! :)
This place is very underrated, it’s one of the best Italian places in Melb!
We quite enjoyed our pizzas here, they were absolutely delicious.
The restaurant was cosy, and the service was great.
We will definitely be back !
Thanks Ciccio’s!
A friendly, relaxed dining experience with authentic Italian dishes. Seating for 16-20, so can fill fast, although takeaway is also available if you miss out on a table. If dining-in the antipasto platter is superb, as are the pizzas (the bases are made in-house and allowed to prove for up to 96 hours!) and the pasta dishes. All have fresh ingredients that are evident from first taste.
Love this place! Food is always fresh and tasty and the service is always fantastic. I recommend the salumi lover pizza and the mushroom risotto!
We've only ever order uber eats from this place, but it has become one of our favourite pizza places! The pizza base is just right in thickness and always has a great crunch. Their tiramisu is AMAZING! Love that the menu is simple but has a great selection :)
Yummy traditional Italian pizza with a great selection of white or tomato bases. Good service. Trends to be busy on the weekends so a booking is recommended unless you go early.
I bought 2 pizzas to take away: capriosa and 3 cheese. They were delicious and the ingredients were definitely fresh, not from supermarket. I will definitely come back.
This is was by far one of the best pizza shops although was ab it concerned when I realised they had new owners but they didn't fail to disappoint everything was authentic, service was top notch, family friendly and they were more than happy to make changes to the menu, overall experience was pleasurable, I highly recommend it ! 🤓
We walked by Ciccio's one day and figured we'd try it as it was probably 'ok' and it was BYO ...so why not? We were so happy to find that it is AMAZING. Pizza is incredible and the baked lasagne has to be one of my favourite dishes in Melbourne. We've now been a handful of times and have been happy every time. It's got a mum and pop pizza shop feel to it and they deliver authentic italian dishes. Yum yum yum!
Pizzas are really tasty. Very nice crust with good quality ingredients. BYO and no corkage just adds to the pleasant dining experience. Highly recommend.
I simply love the pizza here! Fresh and simple. Don't expect the pizzas to be covered in layers of cheap and nasty ingredients. This is more of a traditional type of pizza.
Always good pizza when we come here. Fresh produce especially the prosciutto one! The salmon had a very strong flavor to it but also very tasty! Service is great as well!
Despite gorging ourselves with whole pizzas here multiple times, we've never felt that horrid "oh crap, I've eaten too much pizza and now I'm bloating up like Augustus Gloop" feeling afterwards! Two thumbs up to Ciccio's ability to make amazing pizzas with light & delicious dough! On this visit we shared the Rocket and Pear Salad which was DELICIOUS! The voluminous rocket, slices of pear, walnuts, Parmigiano Reggiano cheese, balsamic glaze, salt, extra virgin olive oil made for a perfect accompaniment to our pizzas. I got the Three Cheeses and Funghi with mozzarella, gorgonzola cheese, Parmigiano Reggiano cheese, mushrooms, fresh parsley -- incredibly tasty but can become a bit overkill in saltiness if you don't have something like the salad to offset it. Hubby Bear got the Capricciosa Popular, but he replaced the anchovies with hot salami, which mixed well with the San Marzano tomato, mozzarella, mushrooms, ham, and olives. TWO THUMBS UP Ciccio's, keep up the great work! We'll see you again soon!
Pizza is top notch, not that take away junkfood type pizza, the proper stuff you find inner city.. tried all the pizza joints in the area (even the highest rated ones) and nothing comes close.. delicious
For me, best pizza around. Perfect amount of topping and the base is not heavy, it's perfect. Really really good pizza, and I've tried each one in my area, this is the best!
Small restaurant but adds to the cozy feel. Enjoy coming here for a pizza but I find the pasta (especially for the price) is excellent. Nice casual feel but high on quality.
awsome food, real italian cuisine, lovely staff
it is a quite small shop, but the food is amazing
i love the pizza and dessert better
homemade tiramisu which is the best i had
We loved il ciccio's in campbellfield back in the day so when we saw this we thought it was a must try. And do glad we did.
We booked for a gathering of about 20 people for a 21st birthday on a wednesday night. The waitresses were lovely. We ordered pizzas to come out as starters and they were amazing. Beautiful thin base and great quality toppings. Cooked perfectly. We then had our guest choose from the menu a pasta/salad. Although some dishes were slow to come out it was very easy to forgive once they had arrived. We a mixture of dishes come out and all guests were extremely satisfied with what they got. Over all an amazing experience. Was alot cheaper then expected also. Will be back again and glad to reccomend to everyone we know. A must try.
Walked into Ciccio's pizza looking for the best tasty pizza and pasta and we got exactly that! Nice little cafe style pizza place with a good choice of pizzas and pastas to choose from. We ordered a seafood pizza and fettuccini to share, the pizza was deliciously crispy with a fantastic tomato base, topped with loads of seafood. Pasta was cooked well with a simple and lovely homely pasta sauce. Everything was spot on! Give this place a go for the most authentic Italian!
If you've read my previous blogs, you know we love the delectible yummies from D.O.C. and Noi Pizzeria - their pizzas are made & eaten like there's no tomorrow! So I know you won't believe me when I say they have a serious contender to look out for...in Reservoir! Yes, of all places, a lonely awkward shaped building braving a corner of one of the many dingy, forgotten and quiet stretches of Plenty Road, Reservoir!! So without further ado, let me introduce you to Ciccio's Pizza Kitchen!
Delicious food, flavours. This little place is a gem. Exceptional and genuine Italian cuisine how it should be. Loved the deserts. Well priced too.
I have to agree with Felix having now experienced the "new" Ciccios and the previous I have to admit that change is good " saluti " and buon appetito to the new owners and customers.😇
I still like Ciccios. Pizza is still good and have no complaints about wait time. It's hard to beat the old Ciccios but compared to other places this is still really good. Give the new owners a chance I say.
We had a lunch function here for 50 people and it was fabulous. The staff were great and the food was delicious. I have eaten he before the new owners took over and yes it is different but to say it's disgusting it not fair as the food is still good.
Really warm and beautiful restaurant. Food is to die for, people are so lovely, service was seriously amazing! Definitely worth going back again. Raining Melbourne weather and Ciccio pizza, Perfection!
The ciccio fries is homemade,my little girl really love it. the pasta i ordered is so yumm,high quality food absolutly. next time i will try risotto. the dessert i prefer is the nutella calzone. nice place to enjoy dining,next week back again.
If this is the new ownership of Ciccio's the business was bought by the right people. Authentic Italian food generous portions, great price and the best asset any business can have and that's superb staff that smile, helpful, efficient and friendly ... I usually wait before posting and this post is after my 3rd dining experience. Do yourself a favour and dine at Ciccio's
Lovely place with delicious food and good serivices. Under new management and new menu feels better than before. Lovely Italian chef ask us any recommendations for dining here, and share lots of Italian experience with us. That is kind of wonderful experience even though I havnt been Italian before! Fantastic weekend for dining there!!!!!!!!
Down hill all the way pizza man !!! Ciccio has changed hands New owners. Ciccios pizza was our favorite place and the Caminiti family who owned have moved on and sold it . We went into ciccios and last nite and saw written on the window in purple marker " taste the difference " and yes we did what a difference these new guys have no idea about italian cuisine . The menu changed no more small pizza for my kids , no more lasagna , no more carbonara and the list goes on . They have cacarecci ! What the hell is that , even the arancini taste different and the pizza is no where as good as it was . The husband and wife team Jason and Caterina were top notch with son Brandon . Why change when the concept was great . We are in australia we like variety and now the menu has changed and more expensive they say they have no liquor licence but one of the deserts has vodka drizzled on it . Mr and mrs ciccio where are you opening next ?
Finally a real italian food experience!. I dined at Ciccio's a couple of days ago with some friends of mine and I really appreciated the new menu and management. Pizzas are absolutely super, with a light and crispy dough which is far to be dry. The ingredients used for the toppings are excellent and pastas looked amazing as well. Prices are more than affordable for the quality they offer, I haven't found something like that in lygon street either. A real surprise for those who live in the area, this little restaurant rocks! I'll definitely come back!
Wonderful service, friendly attentive staff, authentic Italian - delic!
We normally get take away pizza which never disappoints, but tonight we dined in and it was a fantastic experience. Home made arancini balls and calamari highly recommend. Pizza great as always! Really good value for money
Recommend! Recommend! Recommend!. This place has everything going for themselves. The pizza is by far one of the best in the northern suburbs and the welcoming and lovely service is such a nice touch. Tonight was only my 2nd time there and the guys recognised me straight away. Will definitely be back soon! Keep up the awesome food and service!
Great Service- Top Menu. I have now had the pleasure of trying at least every pizza on the menu and the pasta dishes and have to say the quality is superb. The staff at Ciccios are so accommodating and friendly and have made several family functions such as birthdays and anniversaries a delight to arrange. The staff were both flexible with the seating arrangements, and the various dietary requirements and were particularly helpful with the fussier elder parents and younger kids. I cant speak highly enough of the quality of the food and the staff...a really great family restaurant...more like my Nonnas kitchen...wonderful. The chicken dishes and the calzones were also superb...Thank you
SUBERB. The pizza was THE 2ND BEST PIZZA i've ever had. It felt nice to be eating a pizza without a tremendous amount of base and overflowing with ingredients.
Highly recommend anyone who wants an authentic pizza that has great taste
not to mention their high quality for low price
We have had Ciccios pizza now twice and we cannot rave enough about the pizza!! The quality is superb - real ingredients are used, such as freshly shaved Virginian ham instead of rubbish processed ham. The service is also with a smile and the staff very friendly. The owner gave us free soft drink with our first order which was so lovely. We will be back time and time again. Thankyou Ciccios!!
Best Gnocchi EVER!!. My partner and I visited Ciccio's not long after it first opened and the restaurant was empty. We had heard great things and decided to give it a go for ourselves. We both ordered Pizza and was blown away by the old traditional, Italian style Pizza.. They used the best ingredients, and the taste was amazing.
We recommended it to everyone, and the popularity grew.
We went back a second time, both craving Gnocchi... it isn’t very often we order the same dish as we like to taste each other’s.. I have been to Italy and had gnocchi and it was good, but the gnocchi bolognaise at Cicco's is unbelievable... The softest pillows of potato I have ever had, you can literally taste the love put into making them, as all their pastas and pizza bases are made fresh every day.
We love going back to Ciccio's but only when we can afford to pay the extra, as it is on the dearer side but worth every cent!
Awesome pizza! Ordered a margherita pizza & specially asked for the base to be extra thin. Happy to oblige & the end result was awesome stone-cooked goodness. Topping was that delightful mix of salty & sweet you expect from a good margherita. Friendly service that wasn't overbearing.
Great pizza, great customer service...highly recommended!!!
Very nice atmosphere. chillis everywhere make you feel spicy. the waitress last night was so cute trying to protect us from neck bearded bronies. food was delicious and inexpensive !!
Absolute Perfection!!!. Just celebrated sons 18th dinner with family at Ciccios Pizza Kitchen and could not have had a more enjoyable night out. Left the menu up to Jason and Kat for the night and they put on a fabulous spread of antipasto, calamari, pasta and pizza - I was not disappointed. Antipasto platters were diverse and yummy, calamari just melted in your mouth and pastas and pizzas were just like we had in Italy (and at home) - very authentic. We changed our minds on the dessert whilst we were midway through our meal (too full!!) but it wasn't a hassle for them to accommodate us - nothing was a problem. Very family friendly restaurant run by a friendly family - well done guys!! Only complaint I have is that Ciccios is not closer to my home.
Ciccio's pizza kitchen 766 plenty rd reservoir 3073.

The pastas at Ciccios never let us down on a Sunday evening, they are delicious! Have never dined in but the service is warm and friendly. Just what the deserted Plenty road Reservoir needs!
Ciccio's is Deliccio!. Living local I've been driving past this place for a long time and every time I do I always say to myself 'I need to try this place, it looks really good', so tonight was finally the night. I just ordered a couple of takeaway pizzas, the Original Ciccio's and Capricciosa Style. Using the online ordering system was great. Super easy and quick. Got the SMS that they'd be ready in 15mins on a saturday night so off I went to collect.
Pulling up outside, the restaurant was full with diners, I was greeted by the main pizza man and my pizza's were ready. The place looked great and had a really nice vibe about it. Friendly staff who obviously care about what they do. When I got home the pizzas disappeared in a matter of minutes. Beautiful, simple, fresh ingredients, tradition bases, just proper Italian Pizzas. I can't believe it's taken me so long to find the best Pizza place near my house and I can't wait to try everything else on the menu and definitely want to eat in with the family in the near future. Nice one Ciccio's, you just scored yourself another regular patron. DarrenV
My partner and I went here after reading some reviews and we weren't disappointed! We had the arancini balls and shared a meat lovers pizza and it was really great! The staff were attentive, the decor and music was tasteful and the smell of baking pizza made for a ideal date night venue. Will be back again for sure!
Really nice dinner and to to.... Really nice dinner with friendly service and to top it off had a fantastic Nutella Pizza.
Authentic Italian Food. OMG, this experience was to die for. Entrée for me was arancini and my friend had pumpkin pizza gluten free - both these entrees were delicious and the arancini was cooked to perfection. Main was home made gnocchi in napolitana sauce but we asked for a splash of cream which the chef kindly accommodated and this gnocchi was the best we've ever had. My friend insisted we try the nutella and ricotta fagotini. The presentation was 10/10 and other diners were asking about our gastronomic delight to which I replied "we are in heaven". Brandon, our waiter, was very accommodating and Caterina, his mum, was extremely friendly and made us feel as though we ate in her home kitchen. A dining experience well worth repeating.
At last!. Finally a great Italian restaurant in Preston/Reservoir area. We have waited 15 years for this place! Sensational food, home made with delicious fresh ingredients. Loved the special, best spaghetti marinara I have had in a long time. Family run with friendly service. Eat in and takeaway equally great quality. No corkage fee also a plus.
Love it!. Beautiful, traditional italian food! The service and food are consistently excellent. We are regulars. Great for family dinners or a quiet night for two. So happy to have this restaurant in our local area.
Had several pizzas from here and can't fault anything! The ingredients are fresh and delicious and the service is excellent. Highly recommended.
Went to our favourite pizza shop in reservoir for take out . We ordered a meatlover butchers treat had real chicken Breast , Virginia ham , meaty bacon no fat and BBQ sauce . Nothing beats a pizza cooked on stone really authentic . My wife ordered the home made gnocchi parmigiana with eggplant , Parmesan , basil . The sauce these guys use really authentic home style cooking . We got take out because no room . When are you extending up stairs mr & mrs CICCIO you really need to its Always booked both seating
Tried for the first time last night and finally a decent pizza shop in the area i will be going here from now on. C'est si bon!
Best home delivered pizza ever! Great base crunchy and thin with a tasty Napoli sauce and quality toppings, with just the right amount of cheese. The Hawaiian and Margherita are highly recommended. We will definitely be ordering again soon :)
The real deal!. If you want amazing Italian , the real deal then look no further ! I'm so lucky it is walking distance! Fantastic family business, just amazing food , with gluten free options! My tip make a booking as there isn't many seats......or go for take out.....
I can not get enough, this is our weekly takeaway....... Reservoir has needed a great pizza place for the last ten years, yay it's finally here. The owner is a gun, he makes you feel like you are dining in his home!
Had a family birthday dinner last night. Wow. Could not get better homemade pasta ... Little Gem of a place
