Common Questions

Frequently Asked

Can I book a group reservation at Ciao Italia on OpenTable?

Yes. Ciao Italia is available on OpenTable for regular dining reservations. For private events and large groups of 15 or more, we recommend contacting our events team directly at (407) 354-0770 for personalized coordination.

How far in advance should I make a group reservation?

For groups of 8-12, we recommend booking at least 1-2 weeks in advance. For private events of 15 or more guests, book 4-6 weeks ahead. During peak season and conventions, earlier is better.

What is the difference between a regular group reservation and a private event?

A regular group reservation seats you on the main floor alongside other diners. A private event (15+ guests) gives you access to our private dining room or full buyout with set group menus, a dedicated server, and custom seating.

What are Ciao Italia's ratings on OpenTable?

Ciao Italia has been proudly serving Orlando since 1991 with a 4.6-star rating across 4,000+ reviews. We are consistently rated as one of the top Italian restaurants on International Drive.

Can I order from the regular menu for a group dining on the main floor?

Yes. For groups dining on the main floor (not a private event), guests order from our full dinner menu. For private events of 15+ guests, we offer set group menus — Plated, Family Style, or Buffet.

Does Ciao Italia charge a fee for large group reservations?

There is no extra fee for seating a group on the main floor. For private events with a dedicated space and set menu, pricing is per person based on your selected menu package, plus tax and gratuity. A $500 deposit secures your date.
