Italian Private Dining in Orlando

Italian Food That Belongs at a Private Dinner

There is a reason Italian food is what people want when they plan a private dinner. It is generous. It is shareable. It is the kind of food that turns strangers into friends over a long table. But there is a difference between Italian private dining in Orlando at a chain restaurant and Italian private dining at a place where the family who owns it grew up making the food.

Ciao Italia Ristorante has been the Navarra family's home since 1991. The kitchen makes everything from scratch. Pastas are rolled and cut by hand. Sauces simmer for hours. The tiramisu has been made the same way for over thirty years. When you book their private dining room, you get this food served in a dedicated space for up to 60 guests, with a menu built around your event.

The Private Dining Menu

Private dining at Ciao Italia starts with a conversation about what your group loves. The Navarra family builds a prix fixe menu from their kitchen's best: antipasti spreads, fresh salads, handmade pastas like Pappardelle with Wild Boar or Sacchetti stuffed with ricotta, seafood preparations like Risotto alla Pescatora, and classic entrees like Vitello Piccata and Pollo Marsala. Dessert is always house-made, and the tiramisu is non-negotiable.

Wine pairings are available from an Italian-focused list. The staff knows every bottle and can match selections to your courses. This is not a printed menu handed to you with a pen. It is a collaborative menu designed for your specific event.

A Private Room, Not a Compromise

The private dining room at Ciao Italia is a dedicated, separated space. Not a curtained area. Not a roped-off section. Your group gets its own room, its own service team, and an evening that feels intimate regardless of whether you have 15 guests or 60. Full restaurant buyouts are available for events up to 110.

The restaurant is at 6149 Westwood Boulevard, Orlando, FL 32821, near SeaWorld and the Convention Center. Free self-parking. Open seven days a week, 5 PM to 10 PM. Call (407) 354-0770 to start planning.
