An Italian dinner at ICON Park can be the centerpiece of an Orlando evening rather than something squeezed between attractions. Couples might plan a leisurely meal after enjoying The Wheel, while friends and families may want time to relax together following an afternoon of entertainment.
Vincenzo Cucina Italiana serves dinner nightly from 5 PM to 10 PM, providing a convenient setting for guests who want freshly prepared food and a comfortable place to sit down. The restaurant’s combination of family ownership and upscale vibes with casual comfort helps make the evening feel special without a formal dress code.
Chicken Marsala provides a savory Italian main course featuring chicken, mushrooms, and a rich Marsala sauce. Gnocchi offers a comforting alternative for those who enjoy soft potato pasta and familiar Italian flavors. Limoncello cake adds a refreshing lemon dessert that brings a lighter finish to the meal.
These selections create an enjoyable progression from hearty Italian entrées to traditional sweet flavors.
Handmade Pasta & Italian Classics
Every dish is made from scratch, every night. This is what dinner at Vincenzo looks like.
Guests can walk directly to Vincenzo from the Orlando Eye or other ICON Park attractions, locating the restaurant opposite the Orlando StarFlyer at 8255 International Drive, Suite 112. Its placement within the complex eliminates the need to move to another International Drive destination after sightseeing.
Evening visitors arriving from elsewhere in Orlando can use complimentary valet parking.
Locally owned since 2014 by the Navarra Group. Over 33 years of hospitality experience and more than 4,000 guest reviews.
No dress code. Casual attire welcome. Walk from any ICON Park attraction. Open nightly 5–10 PM.
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.

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.
