What Sets Ciao Italia Apart

The Westwood Blvd corridor has chain restaurants and hotel lobbies serving food. Ciao Italia is neither of those things. It is a family-owned Italian restaurant where the Navarra family has been making pasta from scratch, sourcing fresh seafood, and perfecting their recipes since 1991. The kitchen makes everything to order. The wine list is curated for the menu. The atmosphere is warm, intimate, and unhurried.

Signature dishes include the Risotto alla Pescatora, Pappardelle with Wild Boar ragu, Australian Lamb Chops, and Veal Piccata. The Tiramisu is made in-house daily. It is the kind of restaurant where you discover your favorite dish and then come back for it every time you are in Orlando.

If you are staying at any hotel on Westwood Blvd, Ciao Italia is practically next door. Free self-parking means no valet fees or garage hassles. The restaurant is open 7 days a week from 5 PM to 10 PM, making it ideal for dinner after the parks or a relaxed evening without leaving the neighborhood.
