Ciao is a good unpretentious Italian eatery in an area distinctly
short of any such animal. Otherwise Walking Street is just about a gastro-free zone. However Nic the friendly boss at Ciao has created a decent enough spot serving a simple menu of Italian favourites not on but just off the street (just past the big tree).
Last time I dropped in, I had fritto misto to start. This was a mixture of deep fried prawns and calamari with a nice big bowl of mayonnaise-type sauce. This was not exactly gastro cooking but a perfectly acceptable starter. The main however of Scaloppino Mediterranea was a genuinely good dish with an interesting sauce of tomato, olives, capers and onions - simple and tasty. All washed down with a carafe of house red, it did not break the budget coming in under 1,000 Baht.
