While shopping at the outlet we decided to give them a try. Greek salad was made with fresh greens, olives, and a splendid vingarrette dressing. Ordered a pizza half and half. Crunchy crust and tasty sauce with Italian sausage!

Great gluten-free pizza a reasonable price. The regular pizza was very good also. We ordered our pizzas for pick up, so cannot comment on the table service, however the people working behind the pick-up counter were very friendly and efficient.

My pizza was delicious. Very fresh tasting mozzarella, loads of fresh veggies. I ordered to go and my pizza came out quickly. Very impressed, worth the $.

I got the meatball Parmesan sandwich and surprisingly it’s really good. The sauce is freshly made and meatballs are not frozen. Everything taste fresh which is important at restaurants!

Ordered take out last Saturday. Pizza is exactly as you would expect — not fresh at all and a complete rip off. 3 pizzas and 2 salads for $ 70. We had friends who ordered from somewhere else and spent $ 30 less. Needless to say, we will not return next time we are in Destin.

My family and I decided to take a 4th of July holiday to Destin FL. We were hungry and being 4th of July everywhere else was full. We soon realized why. We first entered and the ambience was decent. Nice booths and some tables for seating. The restaurant seemed to boast pizzas, sandwiches and pastas. My family and I ordered a pepperoni mushroom and suprema pizza as well as a spaghetti. The wait time for these dishes were well over the capacity of staff and customers there. When the food finally came out, the 14 inch 21 dollar pizzas were not up to par. Very thin and not filling at all. The taste was decent but very bland. Also the spaghetti was less than average. Very bland and similar to a Jason’s deli salad bar. The food was so meager that we even ordered 2 more sandwiches. The biggest dissapointment was getting the bill and having seen that they had tacked on a 20% charge for a party of 6. If the food had been anywhere decent I would not have even minded but it was bland tasteless and not filling. Our bill came out to be more than 20 dollars a person. Something outrageous for the quality of food digested. Will not be back. Peace!

ABSOLUTELYAMAZING! HIGHLYRECOMMENDEATINGHERE! The oil dip for the bread is amazing! Everything tasted fresh and homemade. The Caesar salad is the best I’ve ever had. The pizza and pasta are out of this world. Love the wings too! The cheese cake are homemade, they are the best I’ve ever had! The service was outstanding! I will definitely choose Ciao Bella over microwaved food from Olive Garden. Would give this more stars if I had the option.

I had a late lunch – around 2:30 – at Ciao Bella, had heard good things from my brother-in-law. I wasn’t expecting much since it’s in a strip mall, although a nice one. I was surprised, however. The décor was fine, and the place was busy; people looked happy, which is a good sign. I had Eggplant Parmigiana, breaded and baked with mozzarella cheese and served over a bed of pasta. It was delicious. The spaghetti and sauce were good enough, but the eggplant was tasty, light, and tender — first class. The bread was extremely tasty, warm and fresh. Dipped in a simple olive oil with herbs, I had to ask for more it was so delicious. The waitress was friendly and brought me more bread for free. Had San Pellegrino sparkling water, which was not the small bottle and was reasonably priced. The entire meal was satisfying, not heavy and not expensive. Highly recommend this place! One of the best restaurants near the Silver Sands Mall.

This is a very solid choice for Italian food, especially considering its located in a strip mall.

This is our favorite pizza on the emerald coast. This is true Italian Pizza. We always order the Piccante Pizza and bread with oil. Service is as good as the food.

We had the Greek Salad, 10″ Supreme Pizza, Gyro, and 12″ Ortolana Pizza. The food was amazing and the pizzas were handmade and very delicious. This was a real pleasant surprise. We enjoyed sitting outside and the service was great. I would definitely recommend this place and I’m surprised of its lower ranking by others. We had an excellent server, Dominika T., and she was on top of everything!

We ate here after shopping at the outlets. Service was great along with our garlic cheese sticks for an appetizer. We had a cheese pizza with light sauce and enjoyed every bite. I’ll eat there again.

My husband and I got to experience this little gem tonight and loved it! I had the pizza rustica and my husband had the chicken Parmesan. Lots of food and garlic bread sauce is amazing! Perfect for a small date night :)

The family and I walked most of the length of the Silver Sands trying to find a place we could all eat. We passed the«Gelato» place because, despite the word«salad» on their sign, they had no salads I could eat. We picked up a to-go menu at the information kiosk for Ciao Bella and I saw the magic words: Gluten-free pizza and pasta! The pizza was delicious and the family liked their food as well. The place is well-appointed as you would expect for a small Italian restaurant. They lost a star because while the to-go menu says gluten-free pasta, there was nothing listed on the full in-restaurant menu. Overall, we were very pleased.

My wife and my brother and his wife ate here for lunch on September 8th, 2013. The pizza was excellent! Service was excellent! It was nice to find such a place that does pizza so well that’s not a chain restaurant . We ordered the«Ortolana» Pizza which has fresh spinach, artichokes, black olives, feta cheese, sliced tomatoes, shredded mozzarella and tomato sauce. We also ordered the«Supreme» Pizza. Both pizzas arrived in about 15 minutes and all I can say is it doesn’t get much better than this folks. The crust was not to thin and just chewy enough to satisfy and on our Supreme pizza the sausage looked to be homemade… it was flat not round like sausage found on most chain pizzas. Needless to say, both our pizzas stood no chance as we quickly devoured every last piece. If out and about around the Outlet Mall shopping or if you just want an authentic Italian style pizza… this place will satisfy. Why not 4 Stars? The place looked like ti could use a little renovations but was clean.

I was not that impressed with the pizza and food. It was busy but the service was good. I wouldn’t frequent it but I’d come back.

All in all, not a bad offering. We ordered something called a Bella(a white pizza with tomatoes, mushrooms, basil, and onions), and enjoyed it. The pizza was fresh and crisp. Toppings were plentiful. I saw a calzone that was almost as large as a football.(A very nice family of three shared it.) It was not a busy night, yet service, while very friendly, seemed a little slow. And I’m sorry to say I’m not a fan of the whole strip-mall /factory outlet dining experience. But the food was good. I wouldn’t mind having that pizza again, though next time I may go pick it up instead of eating it there.
