The Perfect Dinner After Aquatica Orlando
Aquatica Orlando is one of the best waterparks in the country. The slides are thrilling, the lazy river is relaxing, and the wave pool keeps kids entertained for hours. But after a full day in the sun and water, everyone is exhausted and starving.
Ciao Italia Ristorante is just 3 minutes from Aquatica on Westwood Boulevard. We have been the go-to dinner spot for waterpark families since 1991. The air conditioning feels great after a hot day outside, the dining room is calm and comfortable, and the food is the kind of real Italian cooking that fills you up and makes everyone happy.
Show your Aquatica ticket to your server and get 10% off dinner for your entire table. Single-day tickets, combo passes, annual passes — they all work. No coupon needed, no app to download.

Why Aquatica Families Love Ciao Italia
After spending all day at the waterpark, the last thing anyone wants is a loud, crowded chain restaurant with a long wait. Ciao Italia is the opposite. We are a quiet, comfortable neighborhood restaurant where you can sit down, dry off, and enjoy a real home-cooked Italian meal.
The kids can order spaghetti and meatballs or steak bites for $13, and every kids meal comes with gelato. Adults can enjoy homemade fettuccine alfredo, chicken parmigiana, or fresh seafood. Everything is made from scratch in our kitchen, not shipped in frozen from a warehouse.
We are right on Westwood Boulevard with a free parking lot in front. No walking through a parking garage, no valet, no stress. Just pull in, walk in, and eat well.

About Dining Near Aquatica Orlando

The dining options around Aquatica are similar to what you find along International Drive: fast food, chain restaurants, and tourist-oriented buffets. After spending an entire day in the Florida sun, most families want something better than a drive-through meal eaten in the car.

The Navarra family has operated the restaurant since 1991, and everything is made from scratch: the pasta, the bread, the sauces.
