Atmosphere and aesthetic of the restaurant was lovely. Staff was welcoming and patient. Sadly, the Risotto Funghi I ordered was a little tasteless - I expected more. However, my friends enjoyed their various dishes.

Had a wonderful night at Cielo, visited with my friend on Saturday night. We shared a seafood trio starter and also had artisan bread board, went well together. We both loved it, had couple of coctails, my champagne coctail was delicious, but sadly my friend wasn't too keen on their strawberry daiquiri. We also had mains, lamb trio main course and spaghetti bolognese, I loved my lamb very much, pasta was tasty,good...but not blowing my mind, although presentation was nice. Also wanted to say thank you to our lovely French waitress. Sadly I forgot to ask her name, but she was super attentive and looked after us very well:) we will definitely return.

We really enjoyed this restaurant, the set menu on Saturday afternoon was well worth the price, 2 large glasses of wine, bread & Olives and service included, all for about £75.00. The service was excellent, really friendly staff. Unfortunately we don't live local, we are from Essex. We were going to the NEC for a concert and didn't want the boring generic food on offer at the NEC, or the crowds. It was worth going to the restaurant even though the traffic getting across the other side was bad, but we made it.
It was perfect, then came the bill. When a restaurant operates as perfectly as Cielo then any minor, first world issues stand out like pulsating sore thumbs. I’m sure next time when I visit, the bill will arrive correctly and won’t be declined due to technical issues. Then I’ll add that extra review star. Rant over. What you really want to know is, is it better than it’s neighbouring restaurant Piccolino? Yes. Why? Service is more humble, interior is brighter and the traditional Italian dishes are of the same beautifully prepared quality. If I had to sum up Cielo, Traditional Home Made feel Italian food served with a dab of suave.
