CIBO

Best Romantic Restaurants in Phoenix, Arizona for Date Night | Eater Phoenix

"A downtown Phoenix staple, Cibo sits in a 1913 bungalow that blends European charm with effortless romance. The patio is its star, complete with twinkling bistro lights and live music in the evening. The menu focuses on Italian classics, things like wood-fired pizzas, pappardelle Bolognese, and gnocchetti in a fontina cream sauce with smoked prosciutto. A refreshing pear salad is tossed with pecorino, honey, and almonds, while desserts like the crepe, stuffed with ice cream and topped with fresh fruit, make for a sweet ending. Cibo is affordable, unpretentious, and consistently busy — reservations are recommended." - McConnell Quinn
