Baptism Lunch Orlando
A sacred milestone deserves a meaningful celebration — private Italian dining for family and godparents.
Vincenzo Cucina Italiana is closed for regular lunch and opens for dinner at 5 PM. However, we do open for private luncheon events with a food and beverage minimum. Because there are no other guests in the restaurant during the day, your luncheon naturally feels like a full restaurant buyout—with the entire venue, kitchen, and staff dedicated exclusively to your event.
Sacred Milestones
Baptism Celebrations for the Family
After the church ceremony, the family gathers — and where they gather matters. A private Italian luncheon at Vincenzo honors the sacrament with the warmth and intimacy it deserves. Family and godparents celebrate together over authentic Italian food in a setting that feels both elegant and deeply personal. This is how the joy of the day continues — around a table, together.
Family-style dining mirrors the communal spirit of the sacrament itself — everyone sharing from the same table, the same food, the same moment. Platters passed hand to hand, blessings spoken over the meal, and the kind of togetherness that Italian families have brought to baptism celebrations for generations. There is no better way to honor the occasion.
The Amalfi Room provides the private, elegant setting that baptism luncheons call for — accommodating groups of 15 to 50 guests with warm Italian decor and an atmosphere of quiet celebration. For larger family gatherings, the full restaurant welcomes 150 guests. Our Events Team coordinates timing with your church schedule, handles every detail of the meal, and ensures the day flows seamlessly.
