Real Food, Real Fast
Ciao Italia is not fast food, but it is fast enough. Most dishes are ready in 20 minutes because everything is cooked to order. You are not waiting for a microwave. You are waiting for a chef. The difference is obvious the moment the plate arrives. The Fettuccine Alfredo is made with real butter and Parmigiano Reggiano. The Pollo Marsala is tender chicken in a rich wine sauce. The Risotto alla Pescatora has fresh shrimp, clams, and mussels. These are not dishes you find at a fast food window. Open 5 PM to 10 PM at 6149 Westwood Blvd. Free parking. Call (407) 354-0770 or just walk in.
