Housed in a Port Melbourne heritage listed courthouse, built in the early 1860’s, Ciao Cielo is a fine dining Italian restaurant with their more casual Ciao Cucina next door. We loved the cracked sandstone walls, solid wooden rafters and pine floorboards that remain from years gone by, giving a rustic but modern feel to the place. The food, modern Italian, was also impressive and we are already planning a return visit.
