After three days of theme park food, this was exactly what we needed. Real food, real atmosphere, and free parking right outside. The caprese was the freshest I have ever had.

About Ciao Italia & Magical Dining

The $40 Magical Dining prix fixe offers three courses of authentic Italian food made by the Navarra family, who have been on I-Drive since 1991. A real family restaurant just down the road from your hotel.
Free self-parking on site. No valet. No parking fees. Just drive over, park, and enjoy a $40 three-course Italian dinner.
Hotel restaurants are convenient but predictable. Ciao Italia is the kind of restaurant Marriott guests discover and come back to for the rest of their stay.

Italian wine and beer list. Homemade tiramisu, limoncello cake, and chocolate torta. All for $40 during Magical Dining.
Come from the pool, come from the parks, come from a business meeting. Ciao Italia has no dress code. Upscale vibes, casual comfort. Shorts welcome.

This place has been here since 1991 and you can tell why. Not a tourist trap, not a chain. Real Italian food made by a family that cares. The braised short rib was fall-off-the-bone perfect.
