Our Story
When Josie and Antonio Navarra opened Ciao Italia in 1991, they brought their Southern Italian family recipes and a simple philosophy: make great food from scratch, treat guests like family, and never take shortcuts.
More than 35 years later, we are still here — locally owned, scratch-made, and proudly independent. No chains. No shortcuts. Just real Italian food on International Drive.

Every dish made from scratch • No shortcuts since 1991
Rosen Plaza
The convention day is over. You sat through six panels, ate a cold sandwich from a catering tray, and spent four hours standing in an exhibit hall. Now you are back at the Rosen Plaza Hotel Orlando and you need dinner — actual dinner, not a protein bar and a vending machine soda.
Start with the Aragosta Bisque — creamy lobster bisque that warms you up after an over-air-conditioned convention hall. Or share a Burrata with prosciutto di Parma, arugula, and sundried tomato vinaigrette.
Zagat-rated Italian. Handmade pastas, fresh seafood, veal, lamb, and classic preparations.
Handmade pasta • Fresh seafood • Prime cuts • Every plate tells a story
