Outdoor Dining on I-Drive

As the weather cools, Floridians revel in the opportunity to enjoy a dinner outside. Here on International Drive Orlando, it’s no different. Whether you’re new to the area, only in town for a few days, or a lifelong Floridian, we urge you to take advantage of our cooler season and ask your hostess to seat you outside where you can enjoy a few cocktails and a delicious meal in the luxury of the great outdoors.

 

Want the inside scoop on some of the hippest outdoor spots to hit? We’re happy to share!

 

Café Tu Tu Tango

 

 

Modeled after the balcony of a wild artist’s loft in Barcelona, Spain, the outdoor patio at Café Tu Tu Tango is one of International Drive’s best hidden secrets. Bring a friend (or several) and enjoy this all-appetizer eatery where meals are designed to be shared.

 

Bahama Breeze

 

 

Could Bahama Breeze even be considered a Caribbean restaurant without an incredible outdoor patio? We think not! Enjoy an island getaway with sweet deals and even sweeter drinks bound to make you feel like you’ve left Orlando and been transported to a tropical paradise. “Don’t worry, be happy.”

 

Taverna Opa

 

 

Offering an assortment of traditionally prepared Greek dishes, Taverna Opa is a must for any foodie visiting Orlando! Couple this with an exquisite outdoor space, fit for family get-togethers or friendly reunions, and your outdoor dining experience where you won’t be able to resist shouting “Opa!”

 

 

 

Enjoy an authentic Spanish dinner (complete with flamenco dancing) overlooking the world famous Wheel at ICON Park! Whether you stop in for bottomless brunch or share a paella with friends, you’re sure to have a one-of-a-kind dining experience at Tapa Toro.

 

Other outdoor hot spots include: Margaritaville, Maggiano’s Little Italy, Texas de Brazil, Hard Rock Cafe Orlando, The Capital Grille, Nile Ethiopian Restaurant, Cuba Libre, Miller’s Ale House, Yard House, The Pub Orlando, UNO Pizzeria and Grill, and many, many more!
