“Highly recommend the Florida Grouper with 1 large shrimp, served on a bed of crab risotto. Our server Javier was excellent!”

Risotto appeals to diners who enjoy the creamy texture and gradual development of flavors found in traditional Italian rice dishes. At Vincenzo Cucina Italiana, risotto appears in several preparations, bringing together Italian technique with ingredients such as seafood, mushrooms, cheese, and saffron.
Rather than limiting the experience to one variation, the restaurant incorporates risotto into both dedicated entrées and accompaniments to its signature dishes.
Scallop Risotto features jumbo sea scallops with truffle Parmigiano risotto, porcini mushrooms, and caramelized shallots. Florida Black Grouper is served with crab risotto, jumbo shrimp, and citrus beurre blanc. Ossobuco is accompanied by saffron risotto and demi-glace. Each preparation highlights a different use of risotto.
Risotto is a study in balance, where the richness of the rice creates a foundation for everything from delicate seafood to slow-braised meats.
Vincenzo is at 8255 International Drive, Suite 112, at ICON Park directly across from the Orlando StarFlyer. The restaurant sits along one of Orlando’s most recognizable entertainment stretches, with the Orlando Eye nearby.
After a day at the parks, a convention, or a night exploring I-Drive, guests can sit down, relax, and enjoy a real meal without leaving the area. Complimentary valet parking makes the evening simple.

The Risotto Pescatore is Vincenzo's signature dish. It is a saffron-infused risotto cooked to order with shrimp, mussels, clams, calamari, and fresh fish. Each order takes about 25 minutes because the risotto is stirred by hand and the seafood is added fresh during the cooking process.
Authentic Italian risotto cannot be rushed. The rice must be toasted, then slowly fed warm broth while being stirred continuously. This process takes about 20 to 25 minutes and is what gives the risotto its signature creamy texture without using heavy cream. Vincenzo cooks every order fresh.
The Risotto Pescatore is the most popular, but Vincenzo also offers other risotto preparations depending on the season. Ask your server about available options. The kitchen uses Arborio rice and the same hand-stirred technique for all risotto dishes.
