Authentic Italian in Orlando Since 1991

When the Navarra family opened Ciao Italia on International Drive in 1991, Orlando looked nothing like it does today. But the mission was simple: serve real Italian food, made from scratch, every single night.

35 years later, that mission hasn't changed. The pasta is still handmade. The sauces still simmer for hours. Over 4,000 guests have left reviews. Zagat rated, highly awarded, and the same family still greeting you at the door.

This is not a chain. This is the real thing.

The Restaurant Where Kids Are Actually Welcome

Finding a kid friendly restaurant near SeaWorld Orlando should not be this hard. Most places along International Drive are either too expensive, too loud, or serve the same steak bites your kids could get at home. Ciao Italia is different. We are a casual, family-owned Italian restaurant where kids have been welcome since 1991. The kids menu is $13 and includes an entree plus gelato for dessert. That is not a side deal — that is a real meal with a real dessert that makes kids feel like they are part of the dinner, not an afterthought. Highchairs are available. The staff is patient. The dining room is warm and relaxed. You can come in flip-flops and sunburned shoulders straight from the park and nobody will blink. Show your SeaWorld ticket and save 10% on dinner for the whole table.
