Cabana Bay Families Deserve More Than Another Burger

Family-Friendly and Comfortable

Kids Welcome, Parents Taken Care Of

Vincenzo is the kind of place where kids can order from their own menu (10 and under, $13) while mom and dad enjoy handmade pasta, a glass of wine, or a craft cocktail. The atmosphere is warm and polished but never stuffy. You do not need to dress up, and nobody is rushing you out the door. Complimentary valet every evening.

Happy hour Monday all night, Tuesday through Friday 5 to 7 PM. Wine Down Wednesday half-price bottles. Cabana Bay guests love ending their park day here because it feels like a comfortable dinner out, not another counter-service dining.
