The Navarra Family

Authentic Italian in Orlando Since 1991

When the Navarra family opened Ciao Italia on International Drive in 1991, Orlando looked nothing like it does today. But the mission was simple: serve real Italian food, made from scratch, every single night.

35 years later, that mission hasn't changed. The pasta is still handmade. The sauces still simmer for hours. Over 4,000 guests have left reviews. Zagat rated, highly awarded, and the same family still greeting you at the door.

This is not a chain. This is the real thing.

Why Discovery Cove Guests Love Ciao Italia

You spent the day swimming with dolphins, snorkeling in tropical reefs, and floating down lazy rivers. Discovery Cove is an all-inclusive experience, but dinner is not included. And after a full day in the water, everyone is starving.

Ciao Italia Ristorante is a family-owned casual Italian restaurant just 3 minutes from Discovery Cove Orlando. We have been feeding families after park days since 1991. The pasta is made fresh daily. The sauces are homemade. And the dining room is calm and comfortable after a long day in the sun.

Show your Discovery Cove ticket to your server and get 10% off dinner for your entire table. Day passes, resort packages, and multi-park passes all qualify.
