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.

Marriott's Harbour Lake
For families returning to Marriott's Harbour Lake, the resort's water features and spacious villas may already be favorite parts of an Orlando trip. Adding a reliable dinner destination can make the next stay even more enjoyable. Ciao Italia offers a recurring stop outside the resort where guests can reconnect around an Italian meal without spending an evening cooking.
The $13 children's menu includes gelato, giving younger diners something to anticipate after an energetic day. Adults can choose handmade pasta, fresh seafood or a satisfying meat entrée. The atmosphere suits a family reunion as comfortably as a quiet supper, while wine and beer are available for adults. No dress code means everyone can arrive as they are.
Just approximately 1.8 miles and six minutes from Harbour Lake, the restaurant is reached via Westwood Boulevard and local resort access streets. Parking is complimentary at 6149 Westwood Boulevard. Ciao Italia serves dinner nightly from 5 to 10 PM. Return on a future vacation or introduce the restaurant to family members visiting Orlando for the first time.
