Your Hotel Is Modern. Your Dinner Should Be Timeless.
TRYP by Wyndham Orlando is a smart pick for travelers who want a stylish, well-located hotel without the resort price tag. The same thinking should apply to dinner. Why settle for forgettable chain food when Ciao Italia Ristorante is just minutes away, serving the kind of authentic Italian that people fly to Italy for?
The Navarra family has been here since 1991. They opened Ciao Italia when most of the hotels along International Drive were still being planned. Over 35 years of handmade pasta, fresh seafood, and recipes that go back to the old country. That kind of history is not something you can replicate with a franchise agreement.
What 35 Years of Handmade Pasta Tastes Like
Every pasta at Ciao Italia is made in-house. The lobster ravioli, the fettuccine alfredo, the lasagna, the linguine with clam sauce. The sauces are built from scratch every day. The veal is tender, the chicken is perfectly prepared, and the seafood arrives fresh. This is not assembly-line Italian food. It is the real thing, made by people who have been doing it longer than most restaurants survive.
Nine culinary awards and over 3,000 reviews tell the story. A Zagat rating confirms it. But the best evidence is the dining room itself. On any given night, you will see a mix of first-time visitors and regulars who have been coming back for years. That does not happen by accident.
