“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.”

Keep reading to learn more about Vincenzo
Rosen Shingle Creek has its own restaurants, and after three days of a convention, you have probably tried them all. Vincenzo is the off-property Italian restaurant that conference veterans recommend when someone asks where to eat something real on International Drive.
Everything here is made from scratch nightly. The lobster ravioli is filled by hand and sauced with a cream reduction that hotel banquet kitchens cannot touch. The ossobuco is braised for hours until the marrow melts into the sauce. The risotto is stirred to order — no shortcuts, no holding pans, no heat lamp.
Convention guests who have been eating conference catering all week sit down at Vincenzo and visibly relax. The bread arrives warm. The wine list has depth. The carbonara is made properly with egg and guanciale, not cream from a carton. This is the meal that reminds you what dinner is supposed to be.
Rosen Shingle Creek is a great hotel. Vincenzo is a great restaurant. They complement each other the way convention guests wish more hotel-and-dining experiences did.
Handmade Pasta & Italian Classics
Every dish is made from scratch, every night. This is what dinner at Vincenzo looks like.
Vincenzo has been family-owned on International Drive since 2014, operated by the Navarra Group with over 33 years of hospitality experience. Rosen Shingle Creek convention guests discovered it early and kept coming back — enough that the restaurant has become an unofficial tradition for repeat conference-goers.
The atmosphere is casual on purpose. Convention badges, lanyards, and business casual all fit right in. So do families in vacation clothes and couples on a date night. There is no dress code because the Navarra family believes the food and the hospitality should do the impressing, not the door policy.
For corporate dinners, the Amalfi Room handles 15 to 50 guests with custom Italian menus, AV equipment, and event coordination. Full restaurant buyouts accommodate 150 or more. Vincenzo has hosted over 1,500 events and understands what convention groups actually need: good food, flexible timing, and zero friction.
That consistency is why Shingle Creek guests keep Vincenzo in their rotation. It performs the same way every time, which matters when you are hosting clients or rewarding a team.
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.

Hand-cut, cooked to order, served with truffle butter and fresh sides every evening.
Rosen Shingle Creek sits on Universal Boulevard near the Orange County Convention Center, and Vincenzo is at ICON Park on International Drive. The drive takes minutes and keeps you on familiar roads — no tolls, no highway merging, no navigating unfamiliar neighborhoods.
Complimentary valet is waiting when you arrive. After a day of convention sessions, exhibit halls, and fluorescent lighting, pulling up to a restaurant that parks your car for free feels like a well-earned upgrade.
Dinner service runs 5 to 10 PM nightly. Convention schedules end, and Vincenzo is ready — whether you show up at 5:30 for an early dinner or 8:30 after evening networking wraps up.
The drive back to Shingle Creek is quick and easy. No downtown detour, no complicated route. Just a short trip from a great meal back to a great hotel.
We came after the parks and it was the perfect way to end the day. The gnocchi was unreal and the valet made everything so easy.

The Dishes People Come Back For
Chicken parmigiana with spaghetti. Fettuccine alfredo with jumbo shrimp. Made fresh, every night.
Hotel bars at Rosen Shingle Creek do their job, but they cannot compete with a full Italian bar program built around Negronis, Aperol Spritzes, Espresso Martinis, and a wine list that spans Italian and California regions.
Vincenzo's happy hour is Monday all night and Tuesday through Friday from 5 to 7 PM — $4 bottled beers, $7 wines by the glass, and $10 cocktails at prices that make convention-expense travelers smile. Wine Down Wednesday drops every glass of wine to half price all evening long.
The Amalfi Room can be reserved for private happy hours, team dinners, or client entertainment seating 15 to 50 guests. Full buyouts for 150 or more are also available. Over 1,500 events have been hosted here, many by convention and conference groups from Shingle Creek and the Convention Center.
When the convention floor closes, trade the badge for a barstool. The cocktails are better here, the food is real, and the atmosphere actually feels like a night out.
This place is a hidden gem on I-Drive. Not a chain, not overpriced tourist food. Real Italian with real heart. The tiramisu alone is worth the trip.
