Read moreCiao is a newly opened gem in Gdańsk for anyone who loves real Italian cuisine. From the moment you walk in, you feel the welcoming atmosphere – stylish yet relaxed interior and a warm, friendly vibe.
The menu is truly impressive. The vitello tonnato is a classic done right – tender veal, creamy tuna sauce, perfectly balanced and beautifully presented. The pizza has a thin, crispy crust and high-quality toppings – exactly how it should taste. And the real standout was the lamb – juicy, full of flavor, and cooked to perfection.

Ciao is one of those places you’ll want to come back to – excellent food, great energy, and an authentic Italian vibe....
