“My gluten-free options were treated with care and tasted amazing. The staff asked about allergies proactively. That level of attention is uncommon and appreciated.”

TownePlace Suites guests are built for extended stays — fully equipped kitchens, grocery runs, and weeks of home cooking. But when the routine needs breaking, Vincenzo Cucina Italiana on International Drive delivers an evening of genuine Italian food that no suite kitchen can replicate.
The menu begins with starters like the roasted beet and goat cheese salad with candied pecans, the steamed littleneck clams in garlic white wine broth, and the imported charcuterie with fig jam and grissini. Entrees feature the orecchiette with Italian sausage and broccoli rabe, the pan-seared sea bass with artichoke and olive tapenade, and the chicken cacciatore braised with tomatoes, peppers, and fresh herbs.
Creekstone Farms provides every steak on the menu — USDA Prime Black Angus. The filet pairs with truffle butter and broccolini. The fourteen-ounce NY strip is finished with herb butter. The twenty-ounce bone-in ribeye is designed for the guest who wants the full steakhouse experience from an Italian kitchen.
Zero shortcuts. Pasta rolled on premises. Sauces made from whole ingredients. Bread baked through service. Desserts crafted in the Vincenzo pastry station. This is real Italian cooking.
Freshness You Can Taste
Our kitchen preps everything daily — pasta, sauces, bread. Nothing comes from a can or a freezer.
The Navarra Group has spent over thirty years in hospitality and channeled that experience into Vincenzo, which opened on International Drive in 2014. The family understood that I-Drive was missing a genuine Italian restaurant — one built on skill, not shortcuts.
Over 4,000 reviews on Google, OpenTable, and TripAdvisor confirm they filled the gap. Extended-stay guests particularly value the consistency: Vincenzo delivers the same quality on visit three as it did on visit one.
The Amalfi Room handles private dining for 15 to 50 guests with AV and custom menus. Full restaurant buyouts serve up to 150. Over 1,500 events have been hosted — each with the family's personal attention.
For TownePlace guests on multi-week stays, Vincenzo becomes the restaurant that breaks up the routine and reminds them that cooking from scratch is an art — especially when someone else does it.
Finally, an Italian restaurant in Orlando that doesn’t feel like a tourist trap. Every dish was perfect. The Espresso Martini sealed the deal.

Hand-cut, cooked to order, served with truffle butter and fresh sides every evening.

We found Vincenzo on our last night and wished we had come the first night. The lobster ravioli is the best I have ever had. Period.

We came after Epic Universe and it was the perfect way to end the day. The gnocchi was unreal and the valet made everything so easy.
