Lovely restaurant - Edit
What a nice surprise to find a fully vegan restaurant in Aosta (thank you Happy Cow) the restaurant was hidden in a small alley and the terras was on a little square. Lots of choices on the menu and the service was good (the youg girls worked hard to make sure everything was ok) the food was good en we had a lovely time.

Nice and cosy restaurant serving traditional food - Edit
The restaurant is located in a super nice place and the view from the terrace is amazing!
Read moreThe menu offers plenty of choice and what I liked the most is that they veganize some of the most famous Italian dishes.
Their pasta (with lemon, basil and Safran) was one of the best pasta I've ever eaten!
I was a bit disappointed by the dessert though...it was supposed to be a tiramisu but came very moisty and blend.
The place is very well decorated and clean and waiters were very friendly.
Pros: Location, Fresh ingredients
Cons: Dessert options, A bit expensive

Buongiorno, direi che non è vero che avete scelto diversi piatti … avete optato per un menu degustazione , strutturato per 1 persona, e volevate dividerlo in due, a quel punto ho spiegato che il menu era ridotto e che in due non era possibile mangiare . A quel punto la signorina di e’ rimessa i calzini e le scarpe che aveva tolto 😱😱e siete andati via senza nemmeno salutare.

Very good - Edit
Very good food, reasonable price and the waitress was amazing. A lady (maybe the owner) was very rude with a couple with kids because they were playing with the table light.

Buongiorno, non penso di essere rude come voi mi definite, sono andata a togliere dal tavolo dove 2 bimbi giocavano ,non con una candela ma con una lampada ,che ritengo non sia un giocattolo! Credo anche che prima di criticare il mio operato dovreste imparare voi l’educazione, siete entrati ed usciti dal ristorante come se foste a casa vostra senza nemmeno salutare. Grazie per la recensione anche se non veritiera.

Good fully vegan experience, with some room for improvement - Edit
Tastefull and friendly fully vegan experience. Always nice to see that veganism is continually spreading in Italy. Reasonable price. The terrace underneath the plastic tent with a bright cold lamp was typically Italian, thus can be worked on. Taken into consideration that Italians dine with primo/secondo, the portions were still a little small with only two small tomatoes, cut in half, as garnish on my pasta eggplant ‘with tomatoes’
Read morePros: Broad varied menu, lots of different options, Fully vegan
Cons: Relatively small portions with little garnish, Ambience on the terrace

Beautiful location - Edit
Arrived here on a short trip to this beautiful town, starving and eager for an Italian dinner! We were a little disappointed by the food. It was quite tasty, but not amazing, and portions were quite small, considering the price!
Read moreThe staff were very friendly though, and they gave us free starters, that were good. But the best part was the location! We sat outside, with a beautiful view of ancient architecture and a stunning sunset. I recommend it if you’re not on too tight of a budget:)
Pros: Location - view!, Staff were friendly, Quite tasty
Cons: Expensive , Small portions

Great food, nice staff, high price - Edit
It was very nice finding a fully vegan restaurant in this town. Even though we arrived soon to their closing time they took us in. The staff was super nice and friendly and they are mostly fluent in English. The patio was super nice and refreshing even in the summer.
Read moreOnly downside is that the price is quite high for the size of the portions (literally 9-10 thin strips of seitan or 3 squares of soy "steak"). But overall, the food was good.
Pros: Nice ambience, Nice staff, Tasty food
Cons: Small serving sizes, High-ish prices

Shocking experience with verbally aggressive staff - Edit
We were eager to try out Cibo, as it had good reviews. We got there at 7:15 pm, which is when the waitress had said earlier in the day that they opened - although the sign said 7:00 pm.
Read moreAs we approached the restaurant, a man who was sitting on a bench next to the entrance was vaping. As we approached, he said hello, and got up as we entered the restaurant. It turned out that this was the cook.
Seeing as we are quite sensitive to smoking, this wasn't a good sign for us. I don't understand how a cook would sit in front of his own restaurant smoking or vaping. To us, it is a sign of disrespect to customers.
When we entered, the waitress asked us if we wanted to sit outside. We were hoping to sit inside, because we want to avoid second-hand smoke while eating, as it ruins our appetite.
The waitress asked us again if we wanted to sit outside, and we said that we could have a look. She then took us out onto a pedestrian street with many passersby. We wanted to avoid this, because we know that there might be someone smoking in the area.
When I mentioned this to the waitress, she said that the inside area was closed. I asked: "So, outside is the only option?" She said yes.
Having no choice, we sat down (there were no other guests yet), but after a few seconds we noticed that there was a young man nearby smoking, and the wind blew everything to us. When the waitress came back, we told her about this and she looked annoyed. She asked if we wanted to sit inside, we said yes, and she headed back to the restaurant without really waiting for us.
When we got to the restaurant, she was complaining to the chef about us. Hearing her like that, we decided that we did not want to have dinner there. We gave her back the menu and said that we would come back some other time. Then she complained to the chef again.
When we walked out of the restaurant, both the chef and the waitress came out as well. The chef looked at us and made a sign with his hand towards his head as if we were crazy. At the same time, the waitress used the word 'cazzo', which is the Italian version of 'f*ck'. We were in shock!
From the moment that we got to the restaurant, we felt that the waitress was unfriendly and opinionated, and this culminated in her use of a swear word for us to hear.
We will file a complaint to the owners of Cibo, as such employees are the opposite of what veganism is all about: love, caring and kindness.
Pros: We never got to eat the food
Cons: Vile, verbally aggressive waitress, Disrespectful, smoking chef, No indoor seating?

Great restaurant! - Edit
Cibo has been the first all-vegan restaurant I’ve come across on my trip to Italy (we aren’t staying in any of the major cities). It did not disappoint! Some of the dishes were good, and some were great. I really loved the black rice in coconut sauce w/ asparagus. We also tried the spring rolls, bbq tofu, and fusilli pasta. For dessert I had the tiramisu con crema caffe. The tiramisu was AMAZING - by far my favorite thing I had. I haven’t had tiramisu since my pre-vegan days, over six years ago.
Read moreAlso, if you’re a gin&tonic fan, theirs is amazing. They have fever tree tonic here, which I didn’t realize existed outside of the US. Delicious.
Pros: All vegan! Wide variety of food types, Delicious desserts, Good portions
Cons: A bit pricey

Nice vegan restaurant! - Edit
I had a great time at Cibo today, food was nice and my desert amazing! The price of the food is understandable and worth it. What I found a bit disappointing was that you have to pay 2€ for your "dishes" and 1,5€ for regular tap water. Appart from that, really nice 😊

l'Oasi nel deserto - Edit
Nella capitale dell'ambiente che di tutela dell'ambiente sa poco o nulla, dopo paste asciutte da discount e distese di ristoranti tutti uguali e tutti ugualmente cimiteriali, ci siamo rifugiati in un Cibo a 30km dal nostro hotel per sentirci un pò a casa e abbiamo anche scoperto sapori nuovi nei primi piatti che riporto in foto.

Tasty vegan restaurant - Edit
Cibo is a very welcome addition to the beautiful town of Aosta and it’s only fully vegan restaurant. I go skiing in Valle d’Aosta at least twice a year and the vegan offerings are pretty much non-existent. So I was really excited to try this restaurant and wasn’t disappointed. The food was all fresh , creative and homemade although it was a little pricey (100 euros for two starters, two mains and twice glasses of wine ) but it was New Years Eve so for that evening , the price was understandable. Really enjoyed the simple ambience and food and will definitely be coming back. #Veganuary

Excellent dinner on outside patio with view of the mountains - Edit
Recommend tasting menu for dinner. Best value for money. A la carte dinner requires ordering the whole range of courses as portions are not particularly large and a main dish on itself does not constitute a whole meal (may consist, for example, of seitan slices and courgette). June 2022: tasting menu cost Euro 40. For a couple that's not too hungry, a la carte may be slightly cheaper. Superb dining that more than warrants the price.
