Dining Districts

Visit Orlando has designated six unique dining districts full of choices for foodies. Once a year, Visit Orlando also puts together Magical Dining Month during entire month of September. During September, seventy restaurants in the six dining districts serve up three-course prix-fixe dinners. The annual event's website, OrlandoMagicalDining.com, features menus, message boards, reservations and a mobile version launching late August.

The Six Dining Districts:

  • Convention District - This area, encompassing International Drive, hosts the largest concentration of Magical Dining restaurants, including popular steakhouses like The Capital Grille, Charley's Steak House and Vito's Chop House.
  • Disney/Lake Buena Vista District - Known for its world-class theme parks and resorts, this upbeat district offers up upscale, fine dining restaurants including The Venetian Room, Todd English's bluezoo and La Luce by Donna Scala.
  • Downtown District - In the midst of trendy neighborhoods and endless nighttime entertainment options, downtown Orlando hosts local favorites including Citrus Restaurant, Funky Monkey Wine Company, Le Coq Au Vin and The Boheme.
  • Universal/CityWalk District - Fully-themed, Universal area restaurants include Emeril's Tchoup Chop at the Loews Royal Pacific Resort, Bice Ristorante at the Loews Portofino Bay Hotel and The Palm at Hard Rock Hotel.
  • Restaurant Row District - This one-mile stretch of Sand Lake Road is a mecca for upscale and casual restaurants, including Roy's Hawaiian Fusion, Timpano Italian Chophouse and Bosphorous Turkish Cuisine. Featured seafood restaurants in the area include Ocean Prime, Moonfish, Big Fin Seafood Kitchen and Fishbones.
  • Winter Park District - Signature restaurants - unique to the Orlando area - including Luma on Park and Chez Vincent make up this quaint, picturesque district just north of downtown Orlando.
