Italian Restaurant for Families in Orlando
The Navarra family has been welcoming yours since 1991. Handmade pasta. Kids menu. Gelato.
One Family Feeding Another
Ciao Italia is not a corporation pretending to be Italian. It is the Navarra family — real people who have been cooking real Italian food in Orlando since 1991. When your family walks through the door, you are being welcomed by a family that understands what families need: good food, a relaxed atmosphere, fair prices, and patience with the little ones.
The pasta is handmade daily. The sauces are made from scratch. The bread is baked fresh every evening. The kids menu is $13 with gelato. This is Italian food the way an Italian family makes it — and it is made for your family to enjoy together.
Everyone Eats What They Love
The beauty of Italian food is that everyone can find something they love. Kids go for spaghetti, ravioli, or chicken fingers. Teenagers demolish the lasagna or fettuccine Alfredo. Parents explore the full menu — handmade sacchetti, fresh seafood, chicken marsala, veal piccata. Grandparents enjoy a quiet glass of wine with their pasta.
The table comes together over shared bruschetta and garlic bread. Everyone leaves with gelato or tiramisu. That is what family dining looks like at Ciao Italia, and it happens here every night of the week.
