Family-Owned Italian — Since 1991 — 6149 Westwood Blvd
Real Food Made from Scratch
The food near most International Drive hotels falls into two categories: chains that microwave pre-made meals and tourist traps that charge premium prices for average plates. Guests at the TRYP by Wyndham looking for real food have a third option — Ciao Italia Ristorante, a short drive away at 6149 Westwood Blvd.
Nothing here comes from a freezer. The pasta dough is mixed and rolled fresh. The Bolognese simmers for hours. The Calamari Saltati is sautéed to order in white wine lemon butter — not battered and deep-fried. Even the kids menu is real Italian food: Spaghetti Marinara, Cheese Ravioli. Every kids meal is $13 and includes gelato.
The Dishes That Made Us Famous
The Risotto alla Pescatora is the showpiece — arborio rice cooked slowly with clams, mussels, shrimp, and calamari. The Sacchetti di Filetto wraps truffle sage pasta around sliced filet in parmigiano cream. The Agnello delivers Australian lamb chops with mashed potatoes and asparagus. For a classic, the Pollo alla Parmigiana is breaded and cooked to order with marinara and melted mozzarella.
Pair your food with selections from the Italian wine list and beer menu. No cocktails, no full bar — wine and beer only, curated for Italian cuisine. That is how the Navarra family has done it since 1991.
