Ciao Italia opens for private luncheons by special arrangement. Whether it's a corporate awards lunch, a convention group, a bridal shower, or a graduation — we bring the full Ciao Italia experience to your midday event.

Ciao Italia is approximately 1 mile from the OCCC, about a 5-minute drive. This makes us one of the closest Italian restaurants for convention-goers looking for a year-end corporate dinner venue.
While Ciao Italia is very close to the OCCC (1 mile), most groups prefer a short drive or rideshare. We have free self-parking on-site for those who drive, and the trip takes about 5 minutes.
While we don't provide transportation directly, our events team can help coordinate timing with rideshare services or shuttle companies for your convention group's year-end dinner.
Yes. Many convention groups book year-end dinners at Ciao Italia during their OCCC events. We recommend booking early as these dates overlap with peak holiday season demand.
Proximity (5 minutes away), private dining for up to 110 guests, free parking, scratch-made Italian cuisine, and a dedicated events team make Ciao Italia the ideal year-end venue for convention groups.
For groups over 60, we recommend a full restaurant buyout so your entire convention group dines together exclusively. For groups of 15-60, the semi-private dining room provides a dedicated space.
