“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.”

Terra Luna is Universal's newest resort addition, and first-night dinner sets the mood for the entire trip. Vincenzo gives Terra Luna guests exactly the kind of opening meal they are hoping for — scratch-made Italian food in a warm dining room on International Drive, far removed from the theme park food court experience.
The menu opens with antipasti like sauteed calamari in a white wine garlic sauce and burrata so fresh it pools on the plate. Main courses cover the full Italian range — handmade fettuccine alfredo with jumbo shrimp, veal marsala with wild mushrooms, and a lasagna layered with beef Bolognese, ricotta, mozzarella, and bechamel that takes most of the afternoon to build.
The filet mignon and NY strip are USDA Prime from Creekstone Farms, and the sea bass is prepared simply because good fish does not need to hide behind heavy sauces. Dessert is homemade tiramisu — the single most mentioned item across 4,000+ guest reviews.
Terra Luna is brand new. Vincenzo has been doing this since 2014. Together, they make a strong first night in Orlando.
Handmade Pasta & Italian Classics
Every dish is made from scratch, every night. This is what dinner at Vincenzo looks like.
The Navarra Group has been in hospitality for over 33 years. They opened Vincenzo on International Drive in 2014, and the restaurant has outlasted countless chains, concepts, and trendy openings that came and went around it. That longevity is not luck — it is consistency.
Terra Luna guests checking into a brand-new resort want a restaurant that already has its act together. Vincenzo delivers that from the moment you walk in — warm greeting, no dress code, bread on the table, and a server who knows the menu well enough to guide your order without reading from a script.
Families with small children are seated comfortably. Couples celebrating a trip get a quieter table. Groups of friends who just survived their first day at Epic Universe sit together and share plates of bruschetta and calamari while catching their breath.
Every version of a Terra Luna guest fits at Vincenzo. That is by design, not by accident.
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.
Terra Luna Resort is near the Universal campus, and Vincenzo sits at ICON Park on International Drive. The drive is quick, the route is simple, and once you spot the ICON Park wheel, you know exactly where to turn.
Complimentary valet meets you at the entrance. After navigating a new resort and a new theme park all day, someone else parking the car feels like a well-deserved break.
Dinner runs from 5 to 10 PM every evening. That window gives Terra Luna guests time to settle into the hotel, explore the resort amenities, and head out for dinner when they are actually ready to sit down and eat properly.
The trip back to the resort takes minutes. No complicated routing, no toll roads, no guessing. Vincenzo is the kind of close that makes repeat visits during the same trip genuinely easy.
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.

The Dishes People Come Back For
Chicken parmigiana with spaghetti. Fettuccine alfredo with jumbo shrimp. Made fresh, every night.
A brand-new resort deserves a proper welcome drink, and Vincenzo's full bar delivers better than any hotel lobby pour. The Aperol Spritz is built correctly with Prosecco and a splash of soda. The Espresso Martini uses real espresso. The Negroni is stirred, not shaken, because the bartenders here know the difference matters.
Happy hour runs Monday all night and Tuesday through Friday from 5 to 7 PM: $4 bottled beers, $7 wines by the glass, and $10 cocktails. Wine Down Wednesday takes every glass of wine down to half price for the entire evening.
Private dining in the Amalfi Room seats 15 to 50 with custom Italian menus. Full restaurant buyouts accommodate 150 or more guests. Over 1,500 events have been hosted at Vincenzo, from small celebrations to large group dinners.
Terra Luna may be your home base this trip, but Vincenzo's bar is where the real Orlando evenings begin.
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.
