Dinner Before or After StarFlyer
Orlando StarFlyer is one of the most thrilling rides on International Drive. At 450 feet, it is the tallest swing ride in Orlando, spinning riders high above ICON Park with views of the entire I-Drive corridor. The adrenaline is real. And when the ride ends, your group is going to be hungry. The food options inside ICON Park are fine for a quick snack, but they are not going to match the excitement of what you just experienced.
Vincenzo is on International Drive near ICON Park. After StarFlyer, head to Vincenzo for handmade pasta, a glass of Italian wine, and the kind of sit-down dinner that lets everyone decompress and talk about the ride. Or start the evening with dinner at Vincenzo, then head to StarFlyer when the sun goes down and the lights come on. Both directions work.
