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. And it is a 10-minute walk from your hotel.
After a long day at SeaWorld or the convention center, the last thing you want is another chain meal or a lukewarm delivery order. Ciao Italia is 0.5 miles from Tru by Hilton — a 10-minute walk to real Italian food made from scratch by the Navarra family since 1991.
Handmade pasta, sauces that simmer for hours, fresh seafood, and housemade desserts including tiramisu and gelato. Wine and beer to pair with everything. Casual, welcoming, and worth the walk.
Handmade pasta • Fresh seafood • Prime cuts • Every plate from scratch
Ciao Italia looks elegant — arched columns, Italian pottery, wine racks. But there is no dress code. Shorts and flip-flops are welcome. Kids are welcome. Come as you are from the hotel.
$13 kids menu with gelato included. Highchairs available. Walk-ins welcome every night from 5 to 10 PM. And after wine with dinner, walk 10 minutes back to your room. No designated driver needed.
