Ciro's combined an overdone baroque interior and an unadorned exterior and became a famous hangout for movie people of the 1940s, 1950s and early 1960s. It was one of "the" places to be seen and guaranteed being written about in the gossip columns of Hedda Hopper and Louella Parsons ,
Among the galaxy of celebrities who frequented Ciro's were Marilyn Monroe , Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall , Frank Sinatra , Ava Gardner , Sidney Poitier , Anita Ekberg , Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz , Joan Crawford , Betty Grable , Marlene Dietrich , Ginger Rogers , Mickey Rooney , Cary Grant , George Raft , George Burns and Gracie Allen , Judy Garland , June Allyson and Dick Powell , Mamie Van Doren , Jimmy Stewart , Sammy Davis Jr. , Jack Benny , Peter Lawford , and Lana Turner (who often said Ciro's was her favorite nightspot) among many others.
