Welcome to Ciao Italia Ristorante, where family, tradition, and authentic Italian cuisine come together.

Nestled on International Drive, just minutes from SeaWorld, Epic Universe, the Convention Center, and the Hilton Orlando, we are proud to be Central Florida’s longest-running, family-owned Italian restaurant. Since 1991, our mission has been simple — to serve traditional Italian cuisine in a warm, welcoming atmosphere where every guest is treated like family.

At Ciao Italia, we believe in preserving the art of authentic Italian food, just as we have since the very beginning. Our made-to-order dishes reflect the finest classic Italian recipes, prepared with love and the freshest ingredients.

From the luxurious Risotto Pescatore, blending fresh seafood and creamy risotto, to the rich, savory Pappardelle with Wild Boar, every dish captures the soul of genuine Italian dining. For those seeking something truly special, our tender Australian lamb chops are seasoned to perfection and cooked to an incredible level of tenderness.

Whether you’re savoring market-fresh seafood, indulging in a decadent dessert, or pairing your meal with one of our imported Italian wines or California selections, Ciao Italia brings the flavors of Italy to Orlando. Every glass poured and every dish served is a celebration of flavor and quality.

Our hands-on owners ensure consistent excellence, committed to providing only the highest-quality authentic Italian cuisine and service. Whether it’s a casual evening with friends, a romantic dinner for two, or a full Italian family feast, Ciao Italia is the place where memories are made — one delicious meal at a time.
