Baptism Dinner Orlando
Celebrate this sacred milestone with family-style Italian. Private room for up to 60. Three menus from $50/person. Family-owned since 1991.
An Italian Tradition for a Sacred Occasion
In Italian families, the baptism dinner is as important as the ceremony itself. The whole family gathers — grandparents, godparents, aunts, uncles, cousins — and shares a meal together. That is exactly what family-style dining at Ciao Italia is built for. Every course arrives in generous platters at the center of the table. Everyone shares. Everyone connects. It is the way the Navarra family has been feeding Orlando for 35 years.
The private dining room seats up to 60, giving your family the privacy and warmth this celebration deserves. This is not a banquet hall with folding chairs — it is a family-owned Italian restaurant where every dish is made from scratch and the atmosphere feels like home. 4,000+ reviews. Casual dress welcome — come straight from the ceremony.
