“Ciao” is the traditional Italian greeting. It is used with friends, acquaintances and family. Apart from being a sign of courtesy, education and respect, every good experience starts with a “Ciao”.
“After traveling to Bari, Italy in 2012 and tasting my cousins amazing culinary creations, I wanted to bring the same quality and Mediterranean flavors to Nuevo Vallarta.”
At Ciao! Steak & Pizza, everything we serve, from our pizza dough to our sauces, is lovingly made in-house – fresh daily. We strive to use the freshest, locally sourced and imported ingredients, which allows us to deliver the highest quality dishes possible while supporting the farmers and fishermen in the community that we call home. Our warm, inviting, garden atmosphere offers a uniquely Nuevo Vallarta dining experience.
If you are a true foodie, if you crave quality ingredients and authentic cooking experiences why settle for anything less than the best when it comes to pizza or any of our other dishes? Only a wood fired pizza oven can give you the rich flavor and traditional cooking practices your culinary passion deserves.
Since 2013, Ciao! Steak & Pizza has offered authentic Southern Italian Pizza, classic salads, pastas, Italian specialities, steaks, and freshly made desserts. One of our signature features is that we have one of the only genuine, artisanal wood burning ovens in Nuevo Vallarta, enabling us to serve perfectly crisp pizzas, and create a unique taste and texture that has been a hallmark of our pizzas since we opened.
Here at Ciao!, we’re all about the pizza. We’ve created the perfect dough which we top with our secret recipe red sauce, mozzarella, classic meats and fresh vegetables. From sausage and pepperoni to peppers and onions, Ciao! offers options to meet everyone’s palette.
The philosophy of Ciao Steak & Pizza is a simple one: Honest and delicious cuisine, in a relaxed and welcoming environment.
