Ciao! Rustic Italian Retaurant serves up traditional Italian cooking in the northwoods of Minnesota (Side Lake, Minnesota). Ciao! offers fresh Italian fare, with an emphasis on the freshest ingredients as well as in-house breads and pizzas. As of summer '06 Ciao! now prepares all pizzas and breads in a classic Italian wood-fired oven.

All of Ciao's offerings are created with an emphasis on fresh, traditional recipes to let the flavors speak for themselves.

To complement our menu, we have a selection of great imported as well as domestic wines and beers.

See what's new at Ciao! We look forward to seeing you!!
