Rosen Inn at Pointe Orlando guests have one of the easiest dinner decisions in Orlando: walk to Vincenzo Cucina Italiana at ICON Park. No driving, no rideshare, no parking hassle — just a short stroll to handmade Italian food, a full bar, and complimentary valet if you do bring a car.
The menu is built for every appetite: start with creamy burrata and prosciutto, then move to the lobster ravioli, chicken parmigiana, or a 10-ounce filet mignon with truffle butter. The homemade gnocchi in pomodoro with burrata and basil oil is the dish that first-timers order once and regulars order every visit.
The linguine with clams — Middle Neck clams sauteed in garlic, parsley, and white wine — is a textbook Italian classic done with precision and respect. The short rib pappardelle with marsala cream and wild mushrooms is for those who want something richer and more indulgent.
Desserts are all made in-house: tiramisu, chocolate mousse, Nutella cheesecake, limoncello cake. They are worth the walk and then some.
Handmade Pasta & Italian Classics
Every dish is made from scratch, every night. This is what dinner at Vincenzo looks like.
Vincenzo is owned and run by the Navarra Group, a family with more than three decades of experience in the hospitality industry. They opened Vincenzo on International Drive in 2014 and have built it into one of Orlando's most reviewed Italian restaurants, with over 4,000 guest reviews across Google, OpenTable, and TripAdvisor.
The family's approach is simple: cook everything from scratch, treat every guest like family, and never cut corners. That philosophy shows up in details that matter — the hand-rolled gnocchi, the house-made sauces, the fresh bread, and the servers who remember your name.
Whether you are celebrating an anniversary, hosting a rehearsal dinner in the Amalfi Room, or just stopping in after a day at the parks in shorts and sneakers, the Navarra family makes sure you feel at home.
It is that personal touch — combined with serious cooking — that separates Vincenzo from every other Italian restaurant on International Drive.
We drove 30 minutes because of the reviews and it was completely worth it. The ribeye was one of the best steaks I have had in Florida.

Third year in a row eating here during our Orlando trip. The menu keeps getting better. Added the short rib pappardelle this time. Incredible.

The Dishes People Come Back For
Chicken parmigiana with spaghetti. Fettuccine alfredo with jumbo shrimp. Made fresh, every night.
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.
My kids begged to come back the next night. The pizza was perfect for them and I got to enjoy the best Negroni I have had outside of Italy.
