4,000+ reviews, 35 years of tradition, and it is right next door to your hotel.
When you search for the best restaurants near Tru by Hilton Orlando, you get a list of chains on International Drive. None of them have been around for 35 years. None of them make their pasta by hand. None of them are right next door to your hotel. Ciao Italia checks every box. With more than 4,000 reviews from real guests, this is one of the most consistently recommended restaurants in the SeaWorld area of Orlando. The food is handmade Italian — fresh pasta, homemade sauces, warm bread from the oven. The atmosphere is casual and welcoming. And the walk from Tru by Hilton takes about a minute.
The repeat visits tell the story. Guests who stay at Tru by Hilton discover Ciao Italia on their first night and come back every night of their trip. It happens constantly. The Pollo al Marsala is a rich, comforting dish — chicken scaloppini with portobello mushrooms in Marsala wine. The Tortellini con Brasato is braised beef with truffle cream that people talk about for weeks after. The Risotto alla Pescatora is a generous bowl of arborio rice loaded with clams, mussels, shrimp, and calamari. These are not dishes you forget. They are the reason people plan their next Orlando trip around this restaurant. 6149 Westwood Blvd. (407) 354-0770. And if you happen to have a SeaWorld, Aquatica, or Discovery Cove ticket from your trip, show it to your server and save 10% on dinner.
