Why Vincenzo
Not Your Average Event Venue
Minutes from the OCCC
Vincenzo is on International Drive, a short drive from the Orange County Convention Center. Convention groups reach us faster than they reach the hotel restaurant.
Better Than Convention Catering
Convention center food is functional. Vincenzo's food is memorable. Mini beef Wellingtons, a live pasta station, and a real Italian kitchen separate your reception from every other convention afterparty.
Available from 4 PM
Afternoon sessions end, your group heads to Vincenzo. Cocktail receptions start at 4 PM — timed perfectly for the post-session networking window.
Your Space
Two Ways to Host Your Reception
The Amalfi Room (15–50 Guests)
Convention cocktail receptions need a venue that's close, capable, and better than what the convention center offers in-house. Vincenzo is all three. Located at ICON Park on International Drive, minutes from the OCCC, the restaurant provides private cocktail receptions for 15 to 50 in the Amalfi Room and full buyouts for up to 140. Your convention group gets real Italian food, a full bar, and a venue that feels like a reward after a long day on the convention floor.
Full Restaurant Buyout (Up to 140 Guests)
Take over the entire restaurant for your reception. Complete privacy, custom setup, entertainment options, and the full Vincenzo experience.
Location
On International Drive
