Real Italian After a Day at Disney
Your family just spent 12 hours bouncing between Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, Hollywood Studios, and Animal Kingdom. Everyone is sunburned, dehydrated, and done eating $18 chicken fingers. The drive from Disney to International Drive takes about 20 minutes on I-4, and when you get to Vincenzo, someone parks your car for free.
Sit down. Order a glass of wine. Let the kids pick from a menu they will actually eat. Handmade pasta, real Italian food, and an atmosphere that welcomes families in park clothes without blinking. This is the dinner your Disney day deserves.

Why Families Choose Vincenzo Over Disney Dining
A single meal inside Disney can cost $25 to $50 per person for mediocre food at best. At Vincenzo, kids 10 and under eat for $13 with beverage included. Choose from Spaghetti with Meatballs, Chicken Tenders with Fries, Fettuccine Alfredo, Cheese or Beef Ravioli, Italian Cheese Pizza on thin crust, or Filet Tips with Fries. Real food at a real restaurant.
While the kids eat, parents enjoy handmade pasta, fresh seafood, USDA Prime steaks, and craft cocktails at a fraction of what Disney charges. Monday happy hour runs all night. Tuesday through Friday, 5 to 7 PM. Wine Down Wednesday is half off all wines by the glass. You earned it.

Easy Drive from Disney to International Drive
Vincenzo is at 8255 International Drive, inside Vue at 360 near ICON Park. From Walt Disney World, take I-4 East to International Drive — about 20 minutes and 15 miles. Whether you are staying at a Disney resort or an I-Drive hotel, getting here is simple.
Complimentary valet parking every evening. After navigating Disney parking lots all day, the last thing you need is another parking struggle. Pull up, hand over the keys, and walk straight in. The I-Drive hotels — Rosen, Westgate, Hyatt Regency, Hilton — are even closer, most within a few minutes.
