30% off Italian appetizers made fresh by a real kitchen. Truffle fries, bruschetta, arancini, calamari, and more.
Most happy hours in Orlando are drinks-only. Maybe some wings or nachos if you are lucky. Vincenzo does it differently. During every happy hour, the kitchen runs 30% off nine select Italian appetizers, all made fresh by the same kitchen behind the full dinner menu.
This is not reheated bar food. This is bruschetta with vine-ripened tomatoes on toasted bread. Arancini with crispy shells and creamy risotto centers. Carpaccio sliced thin with arugula and shaved Parmesan. Truffle fries tossed in real truffle oil.
Pair any of these with $4 beer, $7 wine, or $10 cocktails and you have the kind of happy hour that makes people come back every week.
Monday food specials run all night 5-10 PM. Tuesday through Friday, 5-7 PM. Complimentary valet parking.
9 Italian Appetizers at 30% Off
Every dish on the happy hour food menu, from $6 truffle fries to $15 cheese board. All made fresh.
Truffle Fries — $6
Crispy fries tossed in truffle oil and Parmesan. The most popular item on the happy hour food menu. Addictive with a $4 beer.
Garlic Bread — $7
Fresh-baked with garlic butter and Italian herbs. Simple, warm, satisfying.
Bruschetta Classica — $8
Vine-ripened tomatoes, fresh basil, extra virgin olive oil on toasted bread. Light, fresh, classic Italian.

The truffle fries are dangerous. We order them every time we come for happy hour. The arancini are incredible too. This is not bar food. This is real Italian food at bar prices.

Meatballs, Calamari, Carpaccio & More
The heavier hitters on the happy hour food menu. Hearty, satisfying, sharable.
Meatballs Polenta — $11
House-made Italian meatballs served over creamy polenta. Rich, hearty, the kind of dish that turns happy hour into dinner.
Fried Calamari — $13
Lightly fried calamari rings with marinara dipping sauce. Crispy, tender, a classic Italian appetizer done right.
Carpaccio di Manzo — $14
Thinly sliced beef with arugula, shaved Parmesan, capers, and lemon. Elegant, light, and pairs beautifully with wine or a Negroni.
Cheese Board — $15
Italian cheeses with accompaniments and crackers. The centerpiece of a happy hour table. Order one and share with the group.
We shared the cheese board, arancini, and bruschetta with a bottle of wine. Happy hour food at a place like this is a steal. Everything was fresh and beautifully presented.

Same Kitchen. Same Quality. Lower Prices.
Every happy hour dish comes from the same kitchen that serves handmade pasta and fresh seafood for dinner.
The happy hour food menu was designed to pair with the drinks. Here are a few combinations that work:
Truffle Fries + $4 Peroni: The crispy truffle oil and cold Italian lager. A $10 start that sets the tone for the night.
Bruschetta + $7 Prosecco: Fresh tomatoes and basil with bubbly Prosecco. Light, Italian, refreshing. $15 total.
Arancini + $10 Negroni: The crispy, creamy risotto balls with the bitter-sweet Negroni. A proper Italian aperitivo for $20.
Carpaccio + $7 Chianti: Thinly sliced beef with a bold Italian red. Classic pairing for $21.
Cheese Board + $7 Cabernet: Italian cheeses with a full-bodied red. The centerpiece combination for a group.
The bartender recommended the carpaccio with a glass of Chianti. Perfect pairing. Then we ordered the meatballs polenta. Then we ordered dinner. We are never leaving.

Limoncello & Italian Spirits
Our limoncello is made in-house. Italian wines, amaro, grappa, and a full selection of Italian spirits.
The happy hour food specials are designed to be a preview. A taste of what the kitchen can do. And most people who start with appetizers end up ordering dinner.
The full dinner menu runs from 5 to 10 PM every night: handmade pasta, lobster ravioli, short rib pappardelle, chicken parmigiana, ossobuco, Chilean sea bass, tiramisu. Everything made from scratch.
Start with truffle fries and a Negroni at happy hour prices. End with lobster ravioli and tiramisu at the same table. That is a proper evening at Vincenzo.
