Element by Marriott Orlando Universal Blvd offers an extended-stay hotel experience with modern accommodations and in-room kitchen facilities, making it especially convenient for travelers visiting Orlando for several days. While having a kitchenette is useful, guests may occasionally prefer letting someone else handle dinner rather than preparing another meal in their room.
Vincenzo Cucina Italiana makes that decision particularly easy because the family-owned Italian restaurant is located in the very same ICON Park plaza as the hotel. Guests can enjoy handmade Italian specialties, comfortable surroundings, and a full-service dinner without getting into a car.
Scallop risotto offers an elegant seafood entrée combining jumbo sea scallops with creamy truffle Parmigiano risotto. Burrata provides a refreshing appetizer featuring soft cheese, prosciutto, heirloom tomatoes, and fig glaze. Limoncello cake introduces a bright citrus dessert that offers a pleasant finish after a rich Italian meal.
These selections make it easy for extended-stay guests to enjoy a night out without venturing beyond their immediate hotel plaza. Guests holding qualifying Universal Studios or Epic Universe tickets can also receive 10% off food.
