Dining Options Near Marriott's Grande Vista Resort

We are a family-owned Italian restaurant that has been open since 1991. Everything is made from scratch every single day. The owner is in the kitchen. The food is honest. The prices are fair.

Better Than Hotel Dining
Hotel restaurants at Grande Vista charge hotel prices for standard food. Ciao Italia charges normal prices for food that was made by hand today.
The difference is obvious from the first bite. Homemade pasta tastes different from dried pasta. Fresh sauce tastes different from jarred sauce. And bread from the oven beats a breadbasket every time.
Once Grande Vista guests find us, they stop eating at the hotel. That says everything.
