When we think Cibo (CHEE-bo) meaning food in Italian, we aspire to give you better-than-homey modern Italian cuisine. Speak to us of Bistro and we think warm, neighborhood and rustic, a casual space with serious food and wine. Tucked away in Oliver Village with a garden side patio, the Bistro's room is adorned with candles, modern pieces and finished with an old world touch.
I focus on sourcing quality ingredients locally as well as from Italy keeping our menu simple and tasty. We try to make everything in house offering Edmonton fresh breads, hand rolled pastas, in house cured meats, and homemade cheeses. Our menu changes seasonally with inspirations from northern Italy in winter, southern Italy in summer, and central Italy year round.

Everything was impeccable! Jordan was our server - he was fantastic! The food (octopus, rabbit pasta & the best steak ever!) was all perfectly timed and sumptuous! We both enjoyed dessert and it was also heavenly!
One problem? Only that it has been so long since I have been to Cibo Bistro! Jordan was a perfect server & I/ we look forward to seeing him again soon!

Dear friends,
Amazing service from Jose! He took care of us and made a great recommendation for our wine pairing with the Parpadelle Ragu. The octopus appetizer was such a pleasant surprise too..seafood well cooked and the dill oil was so refreshing!!
We decided to order dessert and got the limoncello donuts....and OH MY GOODNESS. So light, fluffy, delightful...not too sweet. We gobbled them up even though we thought we were too full...🤣👌
So glad we finally got to try Cibo. Many good reviews and recommendations from friends and foodies. Definitely understand why they encouraged us to go

The food was pretty good and dishes very picturesque, but one thing left a sour taste in our mouths. I called a day before our reservation to ask if I could request no lamb for the tasting menu (my SO doesn't eat lamb and I don't enjoy it) and the gentleman on the phone assured me no lamb was included.
After ordering the tasting menu, the fourth dish that was brought to us was lamb. We asked if they could make something else instead and, after checking with the chef, our server responded "unfortunately with the tasting menu, you get what you get".
We explained the situation and still nothing

I really enjoyed myself. The staff and bartender did a amazing job. Cook served up a delicious meal and everything was very tasty and satisfying. Prices were high but I did not leave hungry. The space is romantic and warm. Had the special which was a pork stuff pasta. So yummy. Will go again for sure. Area is nice and views are good. Great Italian restaurant. Did not try any wine. Was to into trying the cocktails which I felt were well done. Also had a dessert which was so tasty and large it was easy to share with my lady. Great night out.

Fantastic higher end restaurant with wonderful ambience, service, and food. We dined family style and had a variety of items from across the menu. All of the dishes had well balanced flavours and textures and we did not regret a single one of our choices. Highlights include the oxtail and baby zucchini blossoms, which as the name suggests featured super tender oxtail. The duck breast was also notable, having a nice savory flavour offset with a bit of tartness from a cherry demi glace. The doughnut dessert was also amazing - crispy on the outside with a soft rich interior. You get quite a few so

An amazing meal with knowledgeable, bright, and friendly service. My wife, Mom, and I came for dinner. We had incredible service with lots of laughs and shared experiences. From drinks to appetizers to mains everything was fresh, beautifully presented, and delicious. Our server had a story for every dish about where it came from and what inspired it. I had to finish with the chocolate cake and gelato, which was a prefect end to our awesome meal.
