Service staffed by surly personal, food overpriced and cold with no flavour. Can't wait until we have better restaurants than this.

Went to Cibos Last week after seeing a movie and the place was buzzing,luckily we had booked a table. We thought it so nice to be in a restaurant with freshly cooked food, good service and a great atmosphere and would you believe it was in DIDCOT!

If you scroll down, you'll find a review from someone called Sadly Disappointed. That was me, and last time I visited, I was sadly disappointed. What a difference this time. Had the same starter - Antipasto Rustica - and guess what? It came with olives, sund dried tomatoes, a good selection of cured meats and cheeses and a salad garnish. Perfect, just the way it should be. Follwed this with Pizza Inglese - generous, tasty toppings, perfectly cooked!
I wanted this place to be good - and now it is. Thanks Cibo, for maybe listening, but mainly for getting it right.

Dear Joey, even if it will be 60 people but in small table of 4 or 5 people, we don't have any problem to manage it, becouse we will send 1 or 2 table each time.... anyway for next time if you really can't pre-order give me a call and i'm sure we will arrange something for you!
Best Regards

Dear Manager,
Thank you for your reply, but I was only talking eight people.
As a matter of interest then, how would you deal, for instance, with several people (say 20 or so) arriving at your restaurant, maybe on their way home from the cinema, not together, in seperate parties of maybe fours and fives etc.

Went in on Friday and couldn't have pizza? Has pasta instead (on the express lunchtime menu) service was sloooow.

THE BEST RESTAURANT IN DIDCOT, FANTASTIC!!
Posted by Manager — 07/04/2008 at 15:05
Hello Joey, we do have this policy because our food is cooked after your order it... all our food is freshly made, and is very hard to cook for 20 people that will order 20 different types of pastas... first of all the reason is the space... we dont have the cookers for cook for big party with all different choice... we prefer to do set menu instead that use pre-cooked food that personaly i think really doesen't taste great... but anyway if you really don't want the set menu all ways we arrange a solution with the party and we try to make everybody happy! Please for any enquire don't hesitate to contact me on

Wonder why this restuarant has a policy that if you are over eight in you party, you must have their set meals? at their price. Surely better for this to be an option rather than a rule, some people in parties of eight and over do not all want to eat the same thing!
Posted by T&S — 03/04/2008 at 23:53
Could be a great restaurant if the service was more attentive and efficient, the pizza bases were not over-cooked and the pizza toppings were not so sparse, if you got a whole portion of garlic bread rather than half cut into slices, and if the starters were of a decent size for the money. Waiting times have slightly improved since our last visit.

If you live in North Oxford you'd have been better going to the Cibo's in Summertown - it's much better than the one in Didcot. if you're travelling all the way here, there are better places to eat in Didcot

All i have to say is superb,we had a wonderful time. we actully went just to see the magician thay have there on a friends recommendation. We have never been there before as we live in north oxford so its a bit of a trek. Not knowing what to expect we were surprised, the service was first class as was the food and the entertainment was the iceing on the cake. (first class resturant highly recommend)

Very good! Great food and wonderful service. Tip - it's cheaper to order a half carafe of red wine rather than 2 x large glasses, and you get more!
Posted by Emma — 22/03/2008 at 19:16
Fantastic... no compliants at all.... try it!
Posted by sam&dave — 26/02/2008 at 16:15

Posted by Unsure — 24/02/2008 at 12:08
Service very poor. Food if we can call this things food! Is disgusting!!! Sorry but i think that is better to change manager and chef!
Posted by Travelling Student — 09/02/2008 at 13:26
I don't live in didcot, but do visit it on occasion, and nearly always find myself ending up at Cibo! the food is nearly always brilliant, the service is 10 out of 10, and i love the overall atmosphere! i am slightly biased of course, as i have never tried splitz (tad too pricy for a cheap student),but even so, i think cibo is getting better and better month after month. keep it up!
Posted by m — 22/01/2008 at 13:57
if you want fast food go to a fast food outlet.cibo will tell you that the food is freshly cooked to order,thats why you wait a while.prezzo will be the same ,its similar type of establishment. portions seem fine ,if you that hungry ,order some sides of veg or salad or olives or bread,or ,if you really want ,some chips to satisfy your fast food cravings.
Posted by Luigi Bambino — 18/01/2008 at 18:38
I find the portions sizes very small for the money, tastes good, but need more of it. Need a Didcot kebab afterwards. Waiting time for each course takes too long, after being seated by a very miserable host, who gets even more miserable if you require another drink while you wait. Will give it another go though. Please note if going to cineworld after to watch a film, you'll need to book restaurant 4 hours before or you'll miss beginning. No joke!!! Enjoy!!
Posted by Jo — 17/01/2008 at 9:08
Excellent pasta - good venue, just what Didcot needed.
Posted by Space Cadet — 16/01/2008 at 15:01
Can't wait for the place behind Wilko's to open so I can get a decent pizza with a bit of flavour
Posted by Mike — 14/01/2008 at 18:32
Amazing.......... Thank you *** MICHELIN SERVICE
Posted by GRACE — 08/01/2008 at 21:19
Went there and recomend!!!
Very nice rib eye(fresh)with mushrroom sauce, and the pizza just perfect.
The chefs and the kitchen looks very clean also.
And buy the way, the chef with the big hat is HOT!! Well done Cibo.

Went to Cibo! for our Christmas Party. Not sure why, but wasn't expecing great things but the food and service were really good. We were a large party and the food came out efficiently and was well cooked and presented. Will be going back next year!
Posted by David — 03/11/2007 at 16:15

Posted by Fab! — 29/10/2007 at 15:50
What a joy to have somewhere nice to eat in Didcot - my family & I love eating at Cibo's. The food has always been great, the service has been efficent & friendly (sometimes a bit rushed) & overall its a nice place to eat.

I had a nice pizza last tuesday at cibo. I'm italian and I can say that it looked like and it taste as an italian person wants.
The service wasn't bad and i have been sourrounded by nice eastern europe girls. The blonde one was really cute.
One of her got a real monoton and cold accent, but they were all nice.
So for me it is fine and i dont know if there is a better place to eat in didcot. ciao belli

Have been a couple of times to cibo's and have no complaints as such with the food. the staff are all very friendly...but the little guy in the black suit.(head waiter?) .well what can I say...he needs to lighten up a bit and smile..he made me feel really uncomfortable, he took my order for desert and coffee and after waiting 10 mins never received any..they even had the cheek to charge me...recommend he goes on a customer care course.
Posted by Very happy! — 07/09/2007 at 14:13
Love Cibo - Been there many times now and always had a lovely meal. The pizza's are totally authentic & tasty and the deserts are very good. We have always had great service when we eat there and enjoy the friendly, clean environment. Nice to have somewhere a bit smarter in Didcot to eat and a refreshing change from curry/chinese!
