About Dining Near SeaWorld Orlando
After a full day at SeaWorld Orlando, the usual routine is predictable: leave the park, drive up International Drive, and settle for the first chain restaurant with an open table. It works, but it is not memorable. The area around SeaWorld has dozens of dining options, most of them forgettable.
What most visitors do not realize is that some of the best food near SeaWorld is not on International Drive at all. The side streets off I-Drive are home to independent restaurants that serve real, made-from-scratch meals at fair prices. These are the places locals eat.
Ciao Italia Ristorante is one of those places. Tucked on Westwood Boulevard 3 minutes from SeaWorld SeaWorld, it has been run by the Navarra family since 1991. The menu is classic Italian: homemade pasta, fresh seafood, veal, lamb chops, and a wine list that covers every region of Italy.
Families coming from SeaWorld appreciate the casual atmosphere, the free parking, and the 10% ticket discount. Couples enjoy the quieter dining room and the chance to share a bottle of wine after a busy day. It is the kind of restaurant that turns a theme park vacation into something a little more special.
How to Get to Ciao Italia from SeaWorld
Ciao Italia is about 3 minutes from SeaWorld Orlando, roughly half a mile south on International Drive. When you exit the park, head south on I-Drive and turn right onto Westwood Boulevard. The restaurant is on your left with a free parking lot in front. If you are using a rideshare, tell your driver 6149 Westwood Boulevard. The ride is short enough that it barely registers on the meter.
