Ciao Vito Restaurant

Disappointing. Usually I love this restaurant, but had an awful experience a few nights ago. The food took a very long time to get to us, and when it finally did arrive one plate was steaming hot and the other plate was cold. The steaming hot plate was pasta that was hard (not at all al dente). The other plate of pasta was almost crunchy it was so overcooked and dry. The waitress immediately took them back, but proceeded to offer up several different possabilities of why the food came to us that way. Just apologize and fix the problem, don't try to justify it. You'd think this place would be proficient at cooking pasta since they are an Italinan restaurant. Not the case this time. With so many great places to eat in Portland I don't think I'll be going back. Very disappointing.…

Rude Rude rude. I called to ask questions about happy hour and the guy was so rude to me. I wanted to bring a group of people out for happy hour and I said the name wrong. They guy made fun of me then hung up. I called back to tell him I was hoping to bring 10+ people out to give them business and told him he was rude. he then told me that I was not welcome to come!!!!! I do not know why anyone would turn down business like that. The menue looks good but the people are JERKS!!!!!…

Co-Fav of Portland Food Gems. Discovered this place by chance one day after snowboarding. Instantly fell in love with the skirt steak. THe sides with this dish change but the steak is always amazing. THe pork chop is fantastic and unforgetable. The chop has changed my outlook on eating them while out. The Hapy hour Sugo of Pork with Penne is a meal itself and delicious. The happy hour lasts til 8:00pm every day and till closing(9:00)pm on Sundays. I love this place so much I want to work here on weekends... There is one bartender who could not be friendlier and has made us feel like family and quite frankly I feel guilty any time we eat anywhere else becuase I know she would treat us better. .. THe happy hour drinks are fantastic. If you haven't tried it within the last year Ciao Vito is something you are missing out on. I…
