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.

Finding private dining near Sand Lake Road is not as simple as it should be. Most Restaurant Row establishments are designed for high-volume turnover, not private events. When they do offer private space, it is usually a roped-off section of the main dining room with noise bleeding in from all sides. True private dining requires a separate room with its own atmosphere.
