The whole staff at Cicco's has been incredible! The best Italian spot in Barrie! Highly recommend!
We were there for Father's Day and my birthday and I have to say I was very disappointed. We typically love this place that is located within our subdivision, so I am not sure what happened? We had some bruschetta to start and not exactly sure what it was they served? It was more like burned melba toast with tomatoes and some slices of cheese on top? We also had some starter scallops and they were about the size of cherry tomatoes?? I had the lasagna and it was extremely salty. I couldn't even finish it, but took the remainder to go. I was a little embarrassed and didn't want to say anything since we had brought a guest along that had never been there before. I would have to say after that experience, I wouldn't likely recommend. New cook in the kitchen or what? But, no one is on top of things. May explain why at 6pm on what should have been a very busy day for them, there was only one other group there?
Food was excellent. However the service was a little lacking tonight. Might have just been an off evening but we found our server to be less the enthusiastic we needed to ask for things several times. All in all a great evening will go back
Cicci's is a nice little restaurant with great food. Much better then going to a BIG franchisee restaurant. Eat in or take out, never a complaint about the service or food!
Came in for my fianc's birthday with another couple... Keep in mind we are staying locally for a weekend and called nearly 3 weeks ahead and spoke with the owner/manager to make special accommodations which were simply as follows:Tiffany's theme (light blueish accents) table cloths cake, flowers etc. And were told we would get a private booth away from everyone else.So this is where everything gets "funny" we arrive to the restaurant which was empty waited a few minutes to be "fetched" from the door and taken to a table with black and white table clothes (not blue) and blue flowers, unfortunately our table was located right beside the bathroom of a very empty restaurant. So here we are trying to make the most of it and ordered the scallops as per our servers very persuasive recommendation. As the scallops arrived and we began sharing them we all noticed the sauce was overly sweet and scallops were slightly cold in the middle we tried to move past that and pushed the remaining plate to the side of the table to be taken away (almost untouched) we then moved to mains which again we should have known better to avoid our servers recommendations.... We were told they ran out of steak because it was "sooo good" so instead we opted for the "Catch of the day" 3 guests took a shot at the baked trout and 1 guest (me) went for the Marlin steak... The trout was seriously over cooked and bland I mean so bland it had to be coated with salt pepper and chili flakes to give it some if any flavour, as for the Marlin steak. . I feel bad that fish was ever filleted to begin with as it arrived it almost looked like chicken that's how undercooked and bland it was going to be I swear I thought they served me sliced chicken...I took 1 taste and almost spit it back up it was literally still frozen around the edges and was very chewy.... When the server finally came back and saw my meal was untouched I explained to her why and she kept insisting it was fresh..... At this point fresh or frozen she should have known better than to even try justifying a peice of fish that looked so bland and undercooked it could have been mistaken for chicken.I then took an attempt at their lasagna as my Marlin replacement... Told it would take no more than 10 minutes... 20 minutes later as my party had finished eating I recieved my high in sodium lasagna.... I swear to anyone reading this you could literally feel the grains of salt with each bite (only took 2 bites) and was just fed up got the bill and went to McDonald's...Long story short don't believe the high ranked reviews people have left this place was a disappointment from beginning to end.P.s. For sake of being fair they did get the cake and flowers right however keep in mind those 2 items were purchased from outside...
