Colao's

Our first time here and we were not disappointed! Great food and outstanding service. Ordered the sausage stuffed peppers as an appetizer and four cheese ravioli and pork osso bucco as main course. House made dipping oil fantastic. Sauce and meatballs over ravioli super! And the pork?? Oh my God! Absolutely melted in your mouth. We loved every bite and will definitely be back during our next Erie visit.

I LOVED THIS RESTAURANT. I lived in Italy, and know "good" Italian. This is where it's at, folks! I ordered the beef short ribs and they accommodated my gluten-free pasta request rather than the risotto (I am unable to eat dairy) and it was still DELICIOUS. We got a chocolate cake dessert that was just heavenly as well. We came on a busy Saturday night and was able to sit at the bar because there were no more seats, and it was delightful thanks to the friendly bartender. We could tell the entire place is well run; the owner is so pleasant and knows a lot of his clients and his entire staff works so efficiently. It's a beautiful atmosphere to dine in, and again, the food was TO DIE FOR. I come to Erie often, and look forward to dining here again.

Can't believe I had never been here until last night! What a treasure this place is: the decor, ambience, food, and service are all 💯. I Highly recommend the seasonal festive drinks, the bartender really knows what they're doing. Our table ordered the sausage stuffed peppers, charcuterie board, chicken parmesan and shrimp carbonara and it was all perfection. Can't wait to visit again - Grazie!

It was my Fiance and I's first time at Calao's and boy was it nothing short of amazing! We loved the ambiance, homey/cozy vibe, and our server Savannah was so sweet and attentive. Our meals and drinks were very good but our favorite part was the dessert! We split the Lemon Italian Cream Cake, it was light and so so delicious. Definitely will be back in the future, thank you for such a great experience!
