If you are looking for Italian food near Hilton Orlando, skip the chains and drive 2.1 miles to Vincenzo Cucina Italiana at ICON Park on International Drive. This is a family-owned Italian restaurant — not a franchise, not a tourist trap, not a hotel restaurant.
The pasta is handmade daily. Lobster ravioli stuffed with Maine lobster and ricotta in a creamy lobster sauce. House-made potato gnocchi with pomodoro, burrata, and basil oil. Short rib pappardelle with wild mushrooms, Marsala, and truffle cream.
The steaks are USDA Prime Black Angus from Creekstone Farms. The seafood is fresh — Chilean sea bass, Florida grouper, linguine frutti di mare. The wine list covers Italian imports and California favorites.
Every dish is cooked to order in a scratch kitchen. This is the Italian restaurant that locals eat at — and that hotel guests remember long after checkout.
Handmade Pasta & Italian Classics
Every dish is made from scratch, every night. This is what dinner at Vincenzo looks like.
Vincenzo was opened by the Navarra Group on International Drive in 2014. The family has over 33 years of hospitality experience. The restaurant has earned 4,000+ reviews, a Golden Fork Award, and OpenTable Diners' Choice recognition.
The atmosphere is casual enough for vacation clothes and polished enough for business dinners. No dress code. No pretension. Kids 10 and under eat for $13 with a beverage included.
The wine program, cocktail menu, and dessert list are all taken seriously — this is a complete dining experience, not just pasta.
Guests from Hilton Orlando will find a restaurant that feels like it was built for them: quality food, comfortable atmosphere, convenient location, and genuine hospitality.
The server knew every wine on the list and recommended a Chianti Classico that paired perfectly with our ossobuco. This is hospitality done right.
