Keep reading to learn more about Vincenzo
Las Palmeras guests on vacation mode do not want to rush, and Vincenzo Cucina Italiana respects that completely. The kitchen takes its time because the food demands it. The risotto is stirred for twenty minutes. The pappardelle ragu simmers all afternoon. The tiramisu is made in-house and tastes like it.
Order the burrata to start and let the table share. Move into shrimp scampi, grouper, or a ribeye that arrives perfectly charred. The lobster ravioli is rich without being heavy, and the gnocchi in vodka sauce is the dish guests photograph before eating.
This is not fast-turn tourist Italian. This is sit-down, take-your-time, order-another-glass Italian food made by people who have been perfecting it since 2014.
Dinner is served nightly from 5 to 10 PM. Come hungry, stay comfortable, and let the kitchen do what it does best.
Handmade Pasta & Italian Classics
Every dish is made from scratch, every night. This is what dinner at Vincenzo looks like.
The Navarra Group opened Vincenzo as a family restaurant, and that energy fills the dining room every night. Las Palmeras guests on leisurely vacations feel it immediately: there is no rush, no pressure, and no clock ticking on your table.
With 4,000+ reviews and over a decade on International Drive, Vincenzo has earned its following by being consistently great. The food does not fluctuate with the season or the crowd. Every night delivers the same quality, whether the dining room is full or quiet.
The family has over 33 years in hospitality, and it shows in details that chains overlook. A warm greeting at the door. Water refilled without asking. Dessert menus presented when you are ready, not when they want to turn the table.
For Las Palmeras guests who picked a resort because they value comfort and relaxation, Vincenzo extends that same feeling into dinner. No dress code, no stress, just a beautiful meal at your own pace.
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.
Las Palmeras is on International Drive, and Vincenzo is at ICON Park on International Drive. Dinner is a short, easy drive with no highway required. Complimentary valet means you start the evening without circling for parking.
The walk from the valet to the front door takes seconds, and from there the atmosphere pulls you into a different pace. Soft lighting, comfortable seating, a wine list worth exploring, and the kind of warm energy that makes you forget you are on one of the busiest strips in Orlando.
Vacation clothes are welcome. Dress up if you want. The restaurant handles both without blinking. Couples on anniversary trips sit next to families with toddlers, and both feel equally at home.
Las Palmeras guests who discover Vincenzo early in their trip tend to rearrange their dinner plans around a second visit. That says more about the restaurant than any review ever could.
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.
Vacation evenings deserve a great cocktail, and Vincenzo's full bar delivers. Aperol Spritzes that taste like an Italian terrace, Negronis built properly, Espresso Martinis for the after-dinner crowd, and a wine list that rewards exploration.
Happy Hour is Monday all night and Tuesday through Friday from 5 to 7 PM: $4 bottled beers, $7 wines by the glass, $10 cocktails, and select small bites. Wine Down Wednesday adds half-off wines by the glass for the whole evening. On vacation, that kind of deal makes a good night even better.
For families or groups celebrating something special, the Amalfi Room seats 15 to 50 with custom menus designed around your preferences. Full restaurant buyouts accommodate up to 150 guests for larger gatherings.
Vincenzo has hosted over 1,500 private events because the food and the setting consistently deliver. Whether it is a birthday, an anniversary, or just a Tuesday that deserves to feel special, the team makes it happen.
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.
