Food Nearby in Orlando
You are closer than you think. Real Italian food on Westwood Blvd, right on International Drive.
Easy to Find, Easy to Park
One of the worst parts of eating out in Orlando is the parking situation. Theme park lots, paid garages, circling the block. At Ciao Italia, we have free self-parking right at the restaurant. Pull in, park, walk inside. No fees, no hassle, no Uber surge pricing at the end of the night.
We are open 7 days a week from 5 PM to 10 PM. Walk-ins are welcome every night, though if you are coming with a larger group, calling ahead at (407) 354-0770 is a smart move. For private dining, we have a room that seats up to 60 guests and full restaurant buyouts for up to 110.
Better Than What You Will Find on I-Drive
International Drive has plenty of options. Olive Garden, Carrabba's, Maggiano's, Bonefish Grill. They are fine for what they are. But if you want food that was actually made by a person who cares about what goes on the plate, come to us. We have been here longer than most of those places, and with over 4,000 reviews and 9 awards including Zagat Rated and OpenTable Diners Choice, the reputation speaks for itself.
Do not want to dine in? We are also on Uber Eats and DoorDash. Order from your hotel room, your vacation rental, or wherever you are staying. The food travels well because it was made well.
