"I keep getting more and more impressed each time I go! As far as drinks go, I've had a Clover Club, a Strawberry Gentleman, a Bee's Knees, & a Tryst. They were, without a doubt, THE BEST I've ever had. They truly are artists at what they do! As far as food goes, I've had the Crostini Trio, Duck Fries from Paris with Love, Vahlorna Chocolate Fondue, Duck Confit, Chicken & Waffle Sliders, & Prime Beef Tartare. Everything I've had in my two visits so far has been beyond my expectations! I can't recommend this place enough! It is a bit on the pricey side, however it is WELL worth it & there is no doubt about that!"

"Had a reservation for my first anniversary and love this place ans so did my friends who joined us for the first time at Ciro's. Everything was great including the waitress, and the drinks are the best. Only disappointment was that I made it clear that it was my anniversary and called twice to make sure they would do something special but nothing was done. Will still go again."

"This was a wonderful choice for a girls night out and we didn't want your typical restaurant or bar scene. Will absolutely be making another reservation soon."

"I have been to Ciros several times and love going but this time I was very disappointed. They sat us in the bar area near the bathroom entrance and every time the door opened the sun blinded you. The whole purpose of going to Ciros is to sit in the super cool little alcoves. I wish they would have not taken my reservation, those seat should be only for people at the bar. Food was good but the wait staff was overloaded. Just was a big disappointed and we spend $200!!!!"

"Ciro's was fantastic from beginning to end. The drinks were outstanding and the food was even better. The truffle popcorn was the best I've ever had. I ordered so much food that I can't even remember all of it. However, it was all noteworthy. I have a feeling that no matter what you order, you will be in for a treat. If you're looking for something a little different for a dark romantic evening, get to Ciro's as soon as possible."

"From the moment we entered with our secret password provided to the doorman through a little door until the time we departed with friendly handshakes, Ciro's was the place to be, stepping back in time to the Prohibition era. We were seated in a secluded booth with cushions and pillows surrounded with dark mesh-like curtains. The lighting was soft candle light. A perfect romantic atmosphere to steal a kiss from your loved one. Our waiter knew the food and beverage menu inside out. The menu was unique in that when the front cover page was opened the menu was illuminated. The era cocktails were flavorful and the food quality and presentation was excellent. The service was timed perfectly and never felt rushed. Reservations a MUST."

"Ciros prohibition era style Speakeasy is such a gem of a joint. Its hidden and protected by password which gives the feeling that you maybe one of the few people that know about this hideaway. If you like whiskey and scratch made cocktails this is your place. If you like flavored vokda that tastes like fake whipped cream don't bother. Their menu is creative and you can enjoy a full dinner with dessert if you wanted to. Overall its a great place!"

"Ciro's has an amazing ambiance that puts you back in the 1920s. All of their cocktails are created based on knowledge of what was available during that time period. The decor and the servers are dressed to fit the theme. Very cool atmosphere! Their food is delicious and eclectic, but the cocktails are what will make me go back! Most delicious cocktails I have ever had. Not your standard drinks...the waitress was very helpful with descriptions and recommendations. Overall, amazing experience...would highly recommend you check it out!"

"Made reservations well in advance for one of the private dining booths, well worth it. Arrived early to try some of the specialty drinks. Watching the bartenders blend the drinks was an unexpected treat. We asked for suggestions from the expansive drink menu and were delighted with the concoctions that were craftily blended for our group. A+ to the bartender staff and the drink menu. Our private booth was small and very cozy for our party of four. We were a little confused by the lack of a proper dining table, but made the most of our small cocktail table. Food was delivered hot from the kitchen: loved the chicken and waffles and the slider trio. The duck confit plate, though tasty and crispy, was difficult to eat as a shared plate."

"I went here with a group of friends, and really enjoyed it. I like the idea of them going by the era's available alcohols, although I'm not a huge liquor drinker, they had Yuengling available. Unfortunately on our visit, someone hit an electrical pole outside and knocked out power to the entire block. They provided complimentary champagne, but with the AC out, it started to get a little stuffy, so we decided to move to another spot. However, we were able to try the duck fries which were awesome, and the Truffle Popcorn which was fantastic. A group of us has another trip planned, so I look forward to trying more of the food on the next trip.
Overall this is a different dining experience worth checking out!"

"Food was ok, service was excellent, drinks were weak and needed some alcohol, recommend appropriate music for the era or some sort entertainment may have kept us longer, we left after one drink and an appetizer,,,the theme is great, and our waiter appeared knowledgeable as he shared a bit of prohibition history. Sorry we wont be back :("

"It was challenging to find the entrance because it is on the back of the building,so if you are not paying attention you will miss it. Most likely you will use the valet parking and then find the door..if no one hears you knocking on the door you will probably think you are in the wrong place. Once inside, I was surprised on how nice of a place it is. The service was great. A bit on the higher price, so is definitely for a special occasion. Overall it was a great experience."

"This was my 3rd time @ Ciro's and as usual, it was awesome. We were a party of 6 & none of them had been before and they loved it too. The crab martini, bay shore salad, deviled eggs and truffled popcorn were big hits with our group."

"We went for drinks on our anniversary. Very cool place and concept. We had our own private table with curtains surrounding it. The drinks are top notch and the staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. We didn't eat there but this form made me review the food to move on so I gave a "good" in place of a "neutral/NA" option."

"We had res. for 8:30. Table wasn't ready until almost 9pm. No big deal, but then when I asked the server what time they closed (I just wanted to make sure we had time to order our food and eat) she told me that they closed at 3am but they enforced a 2 hour time limit per table??? We weren't necessarily planning on being there that long, but we had clients coming in from out of town and wanted to show them a good time. I explained this to the server and asked if they could help us out. She came back and told us that "actually, there is a large party coming in at 10:30" so we'd have to leave by then! Seriously?? We didn't even get the 2 hours. I paid for our drinks and asked to speak with MGR. He didn't seem to care either. We won't be back"

"What a great evening. The food was delicious and the service was great!! Dayton was our server, and really helped us pick the best things on the menu - the food came out steadily and it lengthens the evening. There isn't an actual "dining table", so you totally cozy up, but still enjoy the buzz from the other tables so you know you aren't alone in the restaurant. The food is all small plates, and perfect portions for two to share and get variety. I woudln't recommend this for parties of more than 4 as the private booths would lose their magic, and it would get a little difficult to share."

"What a great concept, wonderful atmosphere, food, drinks, and service. Make reservations, dress up and make it a special occasion! You do not have to do this. We are in Florida so many patrons are in casual attire but to capture the spirit of this place cocktail dresses and sport coats are the way to go."

"The service was adequate until we had been occupying our table for about and hour and a half, when our waiter told us--at about 7:45pm--that is was "something of a last call as we are expecting new guests to be arriving at your table in about 20 minutes." Really? We opted not to order anything else and said he could just bring us the check then. We had spent $130. We paid the bill and I tipped him around 15% as I was a little put off by his request that we leave. John, our server, then proceeded to remind us that another party would soon be prepareed to assume the table and urged us to leave AGAIN. Wow! Really disappointing given that we ordered generously and hadnt even been occupying the table for 2 hours!"

"Fantastic! Never have a dined in a place that has such an authentic feel to the theme they trying to set. I LOVED the staff! The host Eric? was gracious and funny making us feel as comfortable as we could it being our first time. Our waiter Delonte?? (I wish I wasn't so horrible with names so everyone could know how awesome they were) was just as great giving us just the right amount of time to look things over and answer any questions we had. The setting was amazing as well as the food, and the drinks were phenomenal. I love that the location is rather hidden. Gives it that much more mystery and again authenticity to what they are really going for. This is by far on the top of my list of favorite places to dine and vibe."

"Quite something. The food was meant for sharing and they meant it. Our party went through seven different plates and we were by far pleased each time. Two favorites were the scallops and the chicken & waffle sliders with chipotle mayo."

"I have been t Ciro's before and it's been great but this time I was seated in a very uncomfortable table by the bar, extremely loud, my server didn't know anything about what he had available in his bar (regarding scotch, bourbon, etc). He was a little dry, had no good recommendations, and we have to keep asking him about water refills, even follow him to remind him about the orders. Sadly it didn't lived up to my expectations. Whe you pay $20--$35 dollar per small plate you expect much more than a mediocre service. Even thou I like the place, after this experience I am not going back"

"Ciro's has been one of our favorite spots ever since we discovered it. Unique, intimate (yet great for small groups of friends, as well)and just down right classy, Ciro's takes its Roaring 20's era, high-end speakeasy theme seriously. You knock at the entrance, the gatekeeper peeps out the tiny door and expects your to know your password, given when you make reservations. Great, out-of-the ordinary cocktails, excellent tapas-style delicacies and service fit for a Prohibition king pin. Ciro's is a one-of-a-kind experience."

"overall interesting experience - cozy booths - food decent - enjoying a casual tapas setting - had not yet decided if we would order more food and then dessert - as wait staff recommended we were told to order in stages - not all at once.. what was nice was that even though we ordered a few tapas at the same time each time we ordered - they came out as each was ready which staggered things nicely. We were 90 mins into our dining experience when we were told there is a 2 hour turn over on the booths - and there is no place else to move your party as the bar is full - with either patrons that reserved bar seating or those hoping for the one of twelve dining booths to open - that was somewhat disappointing as we could have continued longer."

"Ciro's is probably the coolest restaurant I have EVER eaten at! The 20's/30's theme is SO cool... there are probably only about a dozen tables -- they are little booths and each is covered with a sheer curtain -- each booth is surrounded by candles... You MUST plan far in advance with a reservation - the bar scene is very happening. Before your reservation time, they call you and give you a password (like the old speakeasy's) -- there are no signs -- the valet will ask how can I help you? This is private - exclusive -- and just amazing! The drinks are all to die for! This is just simple -- all the way around -- a unreal experience!"
