Dinner Near Orlando Slingshot & FreeFall
Settle your nerves with authentic Italian
Skip the ICON Park Food Court
The dining options inside ICON Park are fast-casual at best. Overpriced burgers, mediocre food, and long lines. A 10-minute drive to Ciao Italia gets you white tablecloths, real cooking, attentive service, and free parking. The price point is comparable to what you would spend at the chains, but the quality is in a different league entirely.

From ICON Park, head south on International Drive. Ciao Italia is on International Drive at 6149 Westwood Blvd, Orlando, FL 32821. Free parking, open 7 nights from 5:00 PM to 10:00 PM. Call (407) 354-0770 to reserve your table.
