My family and I regularly visit Orlando due to the fact that we live in Ft. Lauderdale. Well, this time we came because of the new water park Aquatica which is Incredible by the way. Anyway, We were staying at the Renaissance Sea World and they highly recommended Ciao Italia to us. It was walking distance so we had no problem visiting. I have to say this place was one of the best Italian restaurants I have eaten at. The Pollo Picatta and my wife's Penne Contadina was just perfect! My children were happy with the Fett. Alfredo and Sp.meat ball so we ended up having a very pleasing dinner. We have had some bad experiences with most restaurants in Orlando and I am just ashamed and shocked to find out that its been here for 17 years! I just found out about it now? Will definitely be dining here every time I visit.
Pros: Close to where we were, great food, kid friendly
Cons: Large group to the right of us drinking too much wine!
