Holiday Inn Orlando International Dr–ICON gives travelers a convenient home base for exploring the attractions, shops, and entertainment around International Drive. Although the hotel has its own dining facilities, guests may want to experience a locally owned Italian restaurant when planning an evening outside their accommodations.
Vincenzo Cucina Italiana provides that opportunity with a relaxed dining atmosphere, traditional Italian dishes, and family ownership dating back to 2014. Dinner is served nightly from 5 PM to 10 PM.
Chicken Marsala provides a savory entrée with tender chicken, mushrooms, and a rich Marsala sauce. Lasagna offers an Italian comfort-food favorite featuring layers of pasta, cheese, and tomato-based sauce. Limoncello cake finishes the meal with bright lemon and creamy mascarpone flavors.
These familiar dishes create an appealing dinner option for visitors who want a comfortable evening outside their hotel.
Made Fresh Every Evening
Handmade pasta, risotto stirred to order, and sauces simmered for hours. That is the Vincenzo standard.
Holiday Inn Orlando International Dr–ICON is located on Jamaican Court, across from ICON Park, making Vincenzo accessible by a short walk. The restaurant is at 8255 International Drive, Suite 112, directly across from the Orlando StarFlyer and close to The Wheel.
Hotel guests can enjoy dinner and return to their accommodations on foot without arranging a ride.
Family-owned since 2014 by the Navarra Group. Over 33 years of hospitality experience and more than 4,000 guest reviews.
No dress code. Walk from the hotel. Open nightly 5–10 PM. Free evening valet also available.

Hand-cut, cooked to order, served with truffle butter and fresh sides every evening.
Holiday Inn ICON Park is one of the closest hotels to Vincenzo Cucina Italiana. The restaurant sits at ICON Park on International Drive — walking distance from your hotel. No car needed. No rideshare. No parking headaches.
Complimentary valet is still available if you prefer to drive, but many guests enjoy the short walk along International Drive. ICON Park is well-lit, pedestrian-friendly, and home to shops, attractions, and entertainment beyond the restaurant.
Once at Vincenzo, the atmosphere shifts from tourist corridor to family restaurant. The dining room is warm and inviting. The bar is stocked for serious cocktails. The patio (weather permitting) offers a relaxed option for couples and small groups.
Being within walking distance means you can come back. And guests do — many Holiday Inn ICON Park visitors make Vincenzo a nightly tradition during their stay.
The butternut squash ravioli with truffle cream sauce might be the best dish I have eaten this year. Rich without being heavy. Beautiful flavors.

Dishes Worth Dressing Up For
Lobster ravioli. Filet mignon with truffle butter. Pan-seared sea bass. All prepared to order.
At Vincenzo, the bar is not an afterthought — it is a reason to arrive early. Classic Negronis, refreshing Aperol Spritzes, and rich Espresso Martinis are crafted by bartenders who know their way around Italian spirits. The wine list spans Italian regions and California appellations.
Happy hour pricing runs Monday all night and Tuesday through Friday from 5 to 7 PM: $4 bottled beers, $7 wines by the glass, $10 cocktails. On Wine Down Wednesdays, all wines by the glass are half off for the entire evening — a deal that draws wine lovers from across the I-Drive corridor.
For groups and events, the Amalfi Room provides private dining for 15 to 50 guests. Full restaurant buyouts are available for parties up to 150. Custom Italian menus and AV support are included, and the Vincenzo events team has coordinated over 1,500 gatherings.
From a solo cocktail at the bar to a 100-person corporate dinner, Vincenzo scales gracefully without sacrificing quality or warmth.
We ordered the cheese board to start, then split the lobster ravioli and chicken piccata. Every single bite was perfect. The staff made us feel like regulars.

Italian the Way Nonna Made It
Lasagna layered with bolognese and bechamel. Meatballs in San Marzano sauce. The classics, done properly.
What brings Holiday Inn ICON Park guests to Vincenzo — and what brings them back — is the sense that this restaurant is different from everything else on International Drive. It is not a chain. It is not a franchise. It is a family-owned restaurant with a real kitchen, real recipes, and a real commitment to hospitality.
No dress code. Shorts welcome. Kids welcome. Business dinners welcome. Celebrations welcome. The only requirement is an appetite.
In a city that runs on tourism, Vincenzo has built something lasting because the food is honest, the service is genuine, and the experience is worth repeating.
