Private Dining Near I-Drive in Orlando
Close enough to be convenient. Far enough to escape the tourist noise. Private room for up to 60 guests.
Get Off I-Drive for the Night
International Drive has more restaurants per mile than almost anywhere in Orlando. But when you need a private dining room near I-Drive, the options shrink fast. Most I-Drive restaurants are built for volume, not privacy. Chain menus, loud dining rooms, and semi-private corners that face the kitchen. That is not what you are looking for.
Ciao Italia Ristorante is just minutes from International Drive on Westwood Boulevard. The Navarra family has operated the restaurant since 1991, and their private dining room is a separated space that seats up to 60 guests. It has its own service team and a customizable prix fixe menu. For larger groups, a full restaurant buyout accommodates 110. And unlike anything on I-Drive, there is free self-parking for every guest.
Why Leave I-Drive for Dinner
The best private dining near International Drive is not actually on International Drive. It is a few minutes away, in a neighborhood where the Navarra family has been cooking since before I-Drive had its first wax museum. The food at Ciao Italia is made from scratch every night. Handmade pastas, fresh seafood, classic veal and chicken preparations, and a tiramisu that has been on the menu for over three decades.
When you book the private room, you get a dedicated space separated from the main dining room. Your own servers. Your own menu. Your own evening. It is the opposite of fighting for a table at an I-Drive restaurant during peak tourist season.
