How do I address a parcel "care of"? Is it as simple as "curator di"? I wish to send some books to a ristorante for the Owens as I don't know their home address.

3Usually we say “presso”. And welcome! – egreg Sep 08 '17 at 20:39

2I second egreg's “presso”, and moreover the abbreviation “c/o” is also often used in Italy. “Curator di”, on the other hand, doesn't mean anything in this context. – DaG Sep 08 '17 at 20:50

As correctly pointed out by @egreg and @DaG you can say presso or c/o.
The latter is usually used in addresses as an abbreviation.
Moreover, you can address it with the expression alla cortese attenzione di meaning you're sending the parcel to a place where many people work.
The receiver will so be able to dispatch it properly.
