“We came straight from the parks with three kids still in park clothes. They didn’t bat an eye. The pasta was incredible and valet made it so easy. Best dinner of our trip.”

Fairfield Inn guests travel smart — they pick a good hotel at a fair price and spend the savings on experiences that matter. Vincenzo Cucina Italiana is one of those experiences. Fresh handmade pasta, USDA Prime steaks, Italian seafood, and homemade desserts — all prepared from scratch every evening at ICON Park on International Drive.
The menu is built for guests who want real Italian food without the pretense. Spaghetti carbonara with pancetta and pecorino. Lasagna layered with bolognese, bechamel, and mozzarella. Shrimp scampi in garlic butter. Chicken parmigiana with spaghetti. Every dish is made to order, and the kids menu makes family dining effortless.
The homemade tiramisu alone has appeared in thousands of guest reviews. It is the kind of dessert that turns a good dinner into a memorable one.
Fairfield Inn guests who think I-Drive dining means chains and tourist traps are in for a surprise. Vincenzo has been the exception since 2014 — locally owned, independently run, and consistently great.
Handmade Pasta & Italian Classics
Every dish is made from scratch, every night. This is what dinner at Vincenzo looks like.
The Navarra Group has over 33 years in the hospitality industry. They opened Vincenzo on International Drive in 2014 because they believed a family-owned Italian restaurant could thrive even on a road dominated by franchises. 4,000+ guest reviews have proven them right.
Fairfield Inn guests appreciate the value equation at Vincenzo. The portions are generous, the ingredients are fresh, and the experience feels like it should cost more than it does. That is not an accident — the Navarra family priced the menu to bring guests back, not to squeeze them once.
There is no dress code and no attitude. Families with kids in pajamas, business travelers in polos, couples on date night — everyone gets the same warm greeting and the same careful attention.
Vincenzo's staying power on I-Drive comes from doing the simple things right: cook real food, treat people well, and do it consistently. Fairfield guests understand and appreciate that approach.
Hands down the best Italian spot in Orlando. The service was impeccable, the food was absolutely incredible. The lobster ravioli was out of this world.
