“The Hyatt concierge said go to Vincenzo. We went. The lobster ravioli was the most decadent pasta I have had in years. Sending this review from our hotel room.”

Hyatt Regency guests on International Drive have no shortage of restaurant options. The corridor is packed with chains, tourist bars, and fast casual spots. What it lacks — with rare exceptions — is genuinely excellent food made by people who care.
Vincenzo is the exception. The lobster ravioli is the dish that most guests order first and remember longest. Homemade ravioli stuffed with Maine lobster and ricotta, topped with more lobster meat, and finished in a creamy lobster sauce. At $44, it is the most popular splurge on the menu and worth every dollar.
For a lighter pasta, the fettuccine pesto features housemade basil pesto with sundried tomatoes and parmigiano. Clean, bright, and satisfying. Add grilled chicken for $10 or jumbo shrimp for $14.
The USDA Prime steaks offer a different kind of indulgence. The 10-ounce filet mignon with roasted garlic truffle butter is the centerpiece of many Hyatt Regency guests' evenings.
Handmade Pasta & Italian Classics
Every dish is made from scratch, every night. This is what dinner at Vincenzo looks like.
Ask someone who lives near International Drive where to eat and the answer is almost never on International Drive. The tourist restaurants are for tourists. But Vincenzo breaks that rule — locals eat here too.
That dual appeal is the restaurant's strongest endorsement. When a family-owned Italian restaurant on the busiest tourist corridor in Orlando can attract both visitors and locals, the food has to be genuinely good.
The Navarra family understands both audiences. Tourists want value, quality, and convenience. Locals want consistency, authenticity, and a place they can trust. Vincenzo delivers all six.
Hyatt Regency guests who follow the concierge's recommendation to Vincenzo are essentially getting a local's insider tip — and they are never disappointed.
We live ten minutes away and eat here twice a month. The pappardelle ragu and a glass of Barolo is my go-to dinner. Tourists are lucky to have this on their doorstep.

Hand-cut, cooked to order, served with truffle butter and fresh sides every evening.
International Drive connects the Hyatt Regency to Vincenzo at ICON Park. The drive is short, straightforward, and requires no highway navigation. Complimentary valet at the restaurant eliminates the parking question entirely.
The restaurant opens at 5 PM and serves until 10 PM. Hyatt Regency guests can arrive early for happy hour or later for a leisurely dinner — the kitchen maintains the same quality throughout the evening.
After dinner, ICON Park provides entertainment within steps. Or head back to the Hyatt for a nightcap at the hotel bar, satisfied that you found the best dinner on I-Drive.
For guests attending events at the Hyatt Regency, Vincenzo offers a welcome change of scenery. A few minutes of driving buys an entirely different dining experience.
The Aperol Spritz here tastes like summer in Milan. And the carpaccio is so good I keep ordering it even though I say I will try something new.

The Dishes People Come Back For
Chicken parmigiana with spaghetti. Fettuccine alfredo with jumbo shrimp. Made fresh, every night.
In Florida, the weather always calls for an Aperol Spritz. At Vincenzo, the bar team makes them properly — prosecco, Aperol, soda water, served over ice with an orange slice. Light, bitter, refreshing, and the perfect start to an Italian dinner.
Happy hour pricing applies Monday all night and Tuesday through Friday 5 to 7 PM. $4 beers, $7 wines, $10 cocktails. The Espresso Martini is the most popular evening cocktail.
Wine Down Wednesday offers half-off wines by the glass. The Italian selection includes wines from Piedmont, Tuscany, Veneto, and Sicily. The California list rounds out the options.
The Amalfi Room is available for private events — 15 to 50 guests with custom menus and dedicated service. Call (407) 745-4030 to plan.
This place is a hidden gem on I-Drive. Not a chain, not overpriced tourist food. Real Italian with real heart. The tiramisu alone is worth the trip.

Made the Way It Should Be
Homemade lasagna. Meatballs with San Marzano sauce. The Italian food you remember, done right.
Hotel restaurants serve a purpose: breakfast before the parks, a late-night snack, room service when you are too tired to move. But dinner — the meal that defines a vacation evening — deserves something better.
Vincenzo is that something better. Handmade pasta, prime steaks, craft cocktails, a family behind the kitchen, and 4,000+ reviews that confirm what every Hyatt Regency guest discovers on their first visit.
Reserve on OpenTable. Call (407) 745-4030. Walk-ins welcome. Open every night 5 to 10 PM.
