Why Families Choose Vincenzo

Better Than SeaWorld Park Food

After a full day of roller coasters, dolphin encounters, and water slides, your family deserves a real sit-down dinner — not another overpriced park meal. Vincenzo is just 10 minutes north on I-Drive with handmade pasta, USDA Prime steaks, fresh seafood, and a welcoming atmosphere where kids in swimsuits and flip-flops are perfectly welcome.

The Navarra Group has been on International Drive since 2014, bringing over 30 years of hospitality experience. Every pasta is made from scratch daily. This is the kind of Italian restaurant that families come back to every trip to Orlando.

Kids Eat for $13 — Beverage Included

Kids 10 and under eat for $13 with beverage included. After paying theme park prices all day, that is a relief. 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, not reheated park food.

Meanwhile, parents order lobster ravioli, chicken parmigiana, or a New York strip from the adult menu. Happy hour runs Monday all night and Tuesday through Friday 5–7 PM, so you can enjoy craft cocktails while the kids eat. That is the kind of dinner your family actually remembers.

10 Minutes from SeaWorld on International Drive

Vincenzo is at 8255 International Drive near ICON Park. SeaWorld is at 7007 Sea World Drive, just south on I-Drive. About 10 minutes apart. No highways, no complicated navigation — just head north on International Drive and you are there.

Complimentary valet parking every evening. After a full day at the parks, the last thing you need is another parking struggle. Pull up to Vincenzo, hand over the keys, and walk straight in. Aquatica and Discovery Cove guests are just as close — same road, same easy drive.

Happy Hour & Full Bar for the Parents

SeaWorld does not have a bar where you can sit down with a real cocktail. Vincenzo does. After hours of splash zones, stroller navigation, and kids demanding one more ride, you deserve an Aperol Spritz, a Negroni, or a glass of Italian wine. Full bar, full cocktail menu, full relaxation.

Happy Hour: Monday — Happy Hour All Night. Tuesday–Friday, 5:00–7:00 PM.
Wine Down Wednesday — ½ Off Wines by the Glass All Night.
Martini Tuesday — Martini specials all evening.
