"Family-Style Dining"

Family-Style Dining for Groups of 8 to 40

Cibo invites larger groups to experience the Italian tradition of communal dining — a way of eating that's been at the heart of Italian culture for centuries, celebrated in places like North Beach in San Francisco, but still rare in Portland. Dishes arrive at the center of the table, meant to be passed, shared, and savored together. It's convivial, abundant, and distinctly Italian.

Groups choose from a prix-fixe menu, priced at $69 per person, with selections made in advance so the kitchen can do what it does best.

An example three-course menu:

Antipasto — Your choice of one: a spread of imported cheeses, cured meats, and house-pickled vegetables, served with bread; or any two pizzas for the group.

Second Course — Your choice of any two fresh pasta dishes from our daily offerings.

Third Course — Two selections from our meat and seafood dishes, served with seasonal greens and starches.

Dessert — Optional, or included as one of your courses. Guests choose from our plated dessert menu.

Reserving the whole room (up to 40 guests)? A room rental fee applies.
