My dined-in experience was great with nice ambiance except one waitress kept pushing on her recommended steak meal which is obviously very expensive like around P2,850. Well, in general most of their foods are expensive so you need be careful on what to order only. However, their foods taste great which are not bland or salty. I was a bit suprised that their mango shake was P265, a bit pricey.

Service: You will be able to tell that the crew is welcoming. Shoutout to the manager who was so hospitable. He checks up on guests to see if they require anything else. Portions: don’t be blinded by how it initially looks; the serving size is more than perfect! Kindly note, I’m a big guy, but It made me bend a knee Dish quality: pasta’s cooked al dente and would not have it any other way. Special mention to the Farfalle with salmon -the capers in its sauce were splendid! It just works!

We had lunch at CIBO in Ayala Malls Manila Bay and really enjoyed it. The ambience is warm and stylish, and the service was friendly and attentive. We ordered the braised beef shank and sliced beef tenderloin — both were flavorful, tender, and cooked perfectly. Portions were just right for lunch, and everything was served fresh. The restaurant was clean and inviting, making it a comfortable spot for a relaxing meal. Definitely worth the price for the quality. Highly recommended!

Almost perfect. Hands down, the best roast pork I’ve had period. I’ll admit, I was skeptical at first. I thought Cibo was just another overpriced spot, like the ones we’ve been at. But damn, that Roman-style Porchetta flipped the script. Tender, juicy, flavorful, and the pork skin was crunchy in every good way. We also tried the beef and pork ragù, and it was solid. Pasta was cooked al dente, and the sauce hit just the right notes—rich but not overpowering. Simple, well-made, satisfying. Can’t fault the food, but the ambience is a different story. This branch is tight—probably seats 30 to 40 max, so expect it to feel crammed during holidays or weekends. Still, aside from the limited space, I’ve got zero complaints. Cibo easily beats that all-aesthetic, no-substance spot called Nono’s.

We dined again at Cibo in Ayala Malls Manila Bay for my birthday last month, and once more, it did not disappoint. From the moment we arrived, Ms. Dette and her team went above and beyond to make sure our family was warmly welcomed and well taken care of. The manager personally checked in on us throughout the meal—something we truly appreciate. We had encountered a minor issue during a past visit, but this time they made every effort to make things right. That level of topnotch customer service really stood out and speaks volumes about their commitment to guest satisfaction. As for the food—it’s always a delight. Whether it’s their perfectly al dente pasta, delicious pizza, refreshing drinks, or indulgent desserts, every item on the menu feels thoughtfully prepared. It’s one of the big reasons why we keep coming back. The dishes arrived hot and within a reasonable amount of time, which made the experience all the more enjoyable. Everything was delicious. All in all, our family truly had a wonderful time. The combination of great food, excellent service, and a comfortable atmosphere makes Cibo one of our favorite spots. We can’t wait to return soon.
