Family-Friendly Dinner Near I-Drive Hotels
2 minutes from your hotel. Homemade pasta. Kids menu. Free parking. Open nightly.
Steps from Your Hotel, Worlds Away from Room Service
Your I-Drive hotel has a restaurant. It is probably overpriced and underwhelming. The room service menu is worse. And the vending machine in the hallway is not dinner. Ciao Italia is 2 minutes from virtually every hotel on International Drive, and it is the family dinner your vacation needs.
Homemade pasta. A $13 kids menu with gelato. Fresh bread. Wine and beer for the adults. Free parking right in front. The Navarra family has been feeding hotel guests from I-Drive since 1991 — they know exactly what families want after a long day: real food, fair prices, and no stress.
Easy Drive, Easy Parking, Easy Night
From the Rosen Inn, the Hyatt, the Hilton, the Marriott, the DoubleTree — wherever you are on International Drive, Ciao Italia is a 2 to 5 minute drive west on Westwood Boulevard. The free parking lot is right in front. No valet, no meters, no circling.
Walk in tired and hungry. Walk out full and happy. The kids had gelato. You had real Italian food. And you are back at your hotel in under 5 minutes. That is how family dinner near I-Drive should work.
