Terra Luna Resort guests arriving at Universal's newest property want a first dinner that matches the occasion. Vincenzo Cucina Italiana has been delivering exactly that since 2014: genuine Italian food made from scratch by a family that takes every plate personally.
The menu offers something for every palate. Butternut squash ravioli in brown butter for the adventurous. Chicken parm for the traditionalist. Ossobuco for the guest who knows what real Italian braising tastes like. Ribeye and filet mignon for those who want prime beef done right.
The gnocchi alone has brought guests back for a second dinner during the same trip. The lobster ravioli inspires the kind of quiet satisfaction that no chain has ever produced.
Dinner is served nightly from 5 to 10 PM. Terra Luna guests who make Vincenzo their first stop in Orlando rarely regret the decision.
Handmade Pasta & Italian Classics
Every dish is made from scratch, every night. This is what dinner at Vincenzo looks like.
The Navarra Group built Vincenzo for travelers exactly like Terra Luna's guests: people who want quality, authenticity, and hospitality that feels personal rather than programmed. Over 33 years in the industry taught the family that the best restaurants are the ones where guests feel like they belong.
That philosophy shows up in 4,000+ reviews. First-time guests write about feeling like regulars. Return visitors write about how nothing has changed, and they mean it as the highest compliment.
There is no dress code. Terra Luna guests who just stepped off a plane or spent the day at Epic Universe are welcome in whatever they are wearing. The restaurant adjusts to you, not the other way around.
In a city full of corporate restaurants and tourist-targeted menus, Vincenzo is the family-owned Italian place that travelers remember and recommend to everyone they know.
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.
Vincenzo is at ICON Park on International Drive, reachable from Terra Luna Resort with a quick drive down I-Drive. Complimentary valet parking waits at the door, and from there, the evening begins.
The ICON Park setting puts you in the center of everything, but the dining room operates at its own pace. Quiet enough for conversation, warm enough for celebration, and comfortable enough to stay for a second glass of wine after the plates are cleared.
Terra Luna guests exploring Orlando for the first time will find that Vincenzo anchors the I-Drive dining scene. It was here before the new resorts, and it will be here long after the novelty fades.
Casual dress, genuine service, and a location that requires zero navigation skill. For a first night in a new city, that is exactly the combination you want.
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 proper first evening in Orlando starts with a proper cocktail. Vincenzo's full bar pours Negronis, Aperol Spritzes, Espresso Martinis, and Italian wines that transport you before the food even arrives.
Happy Hour runs 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 brings half-off wines by the glass all evening. Terra Luna guests checking in on a weekday hit the timing perfectly.
For groups booking a Universal trip together, the Amalfi Room seats 15 to 50 guests with custom Italian menus. Full restaurant buyouts accommodate up to 150 for large celebrations, reunions, or corporate outings.
Over 1,500 private events have been hosted at Vincenzo. The team treats every gathering, from a four-person anniversary to a fifty-person reunion, with the same level of preparation and care.
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.
