Our Story
When Josie and Antonio Navarra opened Ciao Italia in 1991, they brought their Southern Italian family recipes and a simple philosophy: make great food from scratch, treat guests like family, and never take shortcuts.
More than 35 years later, we are still here — locally owned, scratch-made, and proudly independent. No chains. No shortcuts. Just real Italian food on International Drive.

Every dish made from scratch • No shortcuts since 1991
Rosen Shingle Creek
A magical dining experience is not about white tablecloths and $100 entrees. It is about a meal that stays with you — the smell of fresh basil, the taste of handmade pasta, the warmth of a family-owned restaurant where the owners greet you by name. That is what you get at Ciao Italia Ristorante, 10 minutes from Rosen Shingle Creek.
The Risotto alla Pescatora — arborio rice slowly stirred with clams, mussels, shrimp, and calamari — is the kind of dish people photograph and talk about at breakfast the next day. The Tortellini with braised beef and truffle cream is rich and unforgettable. The Agnello — Australian lamb chops — arrives with mashed potatoes and asparagus in a presentation worthy of its $44 price tag.
Zagat-rated Italian. Handmade pastas, fresh seafood, veal, lamb, and classic preparations.
