text: It is hard to write a review for a restaurant that is loved by so many others as an Elite Yelper and have to give it a Meh review Cibo initially won me over with its great atmosphere fantastic hosts and delicious appetizers but it did not last Be prepared for a lengthy review because I would really like to describe my experience in fullnnI wound up at Cibo with a decentsized group total I believe and everything started off great the drinks began flowing and the appetizer was being passed around for all to share The process for ordering was a little slow but busy Friday night large tableno biggie I completely understood and we kept ourselves busy with conversation After a bit we got our entruee orders in and everyone went with pizzas and not minutes later they began to arrivennNow being the first visit for me I decided to ask for recommendations That is just what I like to do because I like to hear a server get really excited about one of their favorite dishes For the white pizzas our server suggested the Di Notte I was instantly sold so much so that I asked for a suggestion on the red pizzas He then mentioned the Capricciosa and after a brief chat between him my girlfriend and myself Important Note about the artichokes on the pizza I told him that we would take itnnGoing back to the arrival of the pizzasthey came out staggered which made sense since there is only one pizza oven We all began sharing as each pie came out and life was good First we got our Di Notte a delicious mix of cheese and spicy salami which was cooked perfectly and tasted great A little later after other pie orders began filling the table came a vegetarian The runners are slammed and they just call out the names of the pizzas and wait for a hand to be raised Not really hearing the name correctly I asked if that was the pizza with the artichokes The runner said yes and I took the pizza Note I was the only one at the table that had artichokes on my pizza This all brings me to the most awkward moment at a restaurant for me in a very long time nnWe decided to wait on touching the vegetarian pizza because we thought the runner just delivered to the wrong table It happens and I was totally ready to hand that pie over unscathed But when our server came back and I mentioned the potential mistake he told me that was what I ordered and continued to repeat it over and over This was an embarrassing situation mostly because I took HIS recommendation because it was my first visit and we had never even mentioned the Vegetariana and because during the conversation we were having the whole table fell silent funny little extra the musician just started his break as wellcomplete silence He caused a scene even after I had told him it was alright and we would just take the pizza because it was a mistake I tried not to place any blame and talked to him with a this happens kind of demeanor but he insisted that that is what we orderedPLUS he said that he specifically remembered us ordering that because we were not interested in artichokes Guess what is on the Vegetariana folks Yep Artichokes A whole fourth of the pizza was covered in them I love artichokes by the way This posed no problem Once that was pointed out instead of any sort of apology he decided to explain how the artichokes were only on one quadrant of the pizza Cmon nowI can see a bullshitter and that was just blatant It is ridiculous to claim that we ordered a different pizza because of one particular ingredient only to order another with the SAME ingredient I hope you the reader is understanding the uncomfortable situation that I was in because it was a weird one I kind of could not wait to get out of there for the remainder of the dinnernnThat all being said the woman at the cash bar Melissa was great and she really made an effort to make our table feel a little more comfortable after the whole incident I hope the owner of Cibo can take note of that because it was not really her job but she was sweet personable and took it upon herself to feel embarrassed and responsible for our servernnMy first trip to Cibo was a bust and it is really hard to want to make a return visit but in time I am sure I will I cannot let one bad experience dictate how I completely feel about such a beloved local restaurant Sorry for the length but I hope this review can be of help to someone The food and the atmosphere was good but my experience with the service totally overshadowed them
