Truffle Eggs! Super delicious! The cafe might not look cozy and it’s usually a bit cold inside in the winter but the food is great! We come once a week. Highly recommended.

Highly recommend this restaurant. The food and service were excellent and their chef, Lewis is an absolute master of Italian food. Great experience, we’ll be back soon.

Phenomenally good food and atmosphere, and a wonderful addition to the local options. In the day time a laid back cafe atmosphere with good coffee and small meals/snacks (try the Italian sausage sandwich!); in the evening probably the best dining in the area. Fabio's enthusiasm for his cruisine is infectious

This place is SO good! The food is proper Italian cooking in my opinion. The owner is really friendly and happy to talk about all the food, he loves it like I do and more!

So far I've tried the pizza, which was great! The fettuccine bolognese, and the tiramisu 😍. They sell bits to use at home too, like proper San Marzano tomatoes, pasta etc👌

We'll worth trying it. And if you do, you'll definitely go again!

Great menu of all my favourite items, perfectly presented with Italian culinary flair and very reasonably priced. Top marks to Fabio and Lewis for this enterprise and for the further enhancements they have in the pipe line. Highly recommended and I much look forward to my next visit.

I start by saying I'm Italian. And this place makes me feel home. The staff is friendly and professional, and the products they use are definitely high quality, I love my coffee here, so much that I'm here every day, and honestly, they have Molinari caffè which lately I hardly could find in Italy, wasn't expecting to find it abroad. The food is amazing, you can tell it's made with love, last time I had a wonderful amatriciana, and was glad to wait for it cause it took the exact time it'll take to make it fresh, synonymous of high quality, and that tomato sauce tasted like it was sent from heaven. I highly recommend it to anyone,both who loves Italian food, and who'd like to give it a try. There's no way you'd be disappointed, just be aware, if you try it once, you'll end up here every day, just like me. Thanks Fabio, you guys are great! Dulwich needed a place like this.

Come here with friends 2-3 times a week for a morning coffee and breakfast. Coffee is great, food is delicous. Fabio who runs Ciao is wonderful. The sausage panini is unbelievable. Can't think of a better way to start the day ! Grazie mille!!!
