About Dining Near Aquatica Orlando
Aquatica is the kind of park that wears you out in the best way possible. Between the high-speed slides, the lazy river, and the beach areas, most families are thoroughly done by late afternoon. The next question is always the same: where should we eat?
The area around Aquatica is part of the International Drive tourist corridor, which means there are dozens of restaurants nearby. The problem is that most of them are chains or fast-casual spots designed for quick turnover rather than a relaxing dinner experience.
Ciao Italia Ristorante offers a different kind of evening. Located on Westwood Boulevard just a few minutes from Aquatica, this family-owned Italian restaurant has been a fixture in the neighborhood since 1991. The pasta is made fresh every morning, the bread is baked in-house, and the dining room is calm and welcoming.
Families come in wearing sandals and cover-ups and feel right at home. The kids menu includes gelato, parking is free, and walk-ins are welcome every night. Show your Aquatica ticket for 10% off dinner.

From Aquatica, the drive to Ciao Italia takes about 4 minutes. Head south along International Drive for about a mile, then turn right onto Westwood Boulevard. Free parking is available right in front of the restaurant. Rideshare from Aquatica costs just a few dollars and drops you at the door.
