The Navarra Family

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.

Everything Made From Scratch

You have been cooking in your Cypress Harbour villa kitchen all week. Scrambled eggs for breakfast. Sandwiches for lunch. Maybe a frozen pizza from Publix for one of the dinners. Tonight, put down the spatula.

Ciao Italia makes everything from scratch in the kitchen — and it shows. The Pasta e Fagioli is real Tuscan bean soup, not canned. The Bruschetta uses fresh tomatoes on toasted ciabatta with parmigiano-reggiano. The Calamari Saltati is sauteed (never fried) in white wine lemon butter. The Lasagna is classic Bolognese. The Sacchetti di Filetto is truffle sage pasta with parmigiano cream and sliced filet.

The drive from Cypress Harbour is 10 minutes. The food is what you have been craving all week.
