Luncheon Event Venues International Drive
One of the only private luncheon venues directly on International Drive — at ICON Park, 1.8 miles from the Orange County Convention Center.
Vincenzo Cucina Italiana is closed for regular lunch and opens for dinner at 5 PM. However, we do open for private luncheon events with a food and beverage minimum. Because there are no other guests in the restaurant during the day, your luncheon naturally feels like a full restaurant buyout—with the entire venue, kitchen, and staff dedicated exclusively to your event.
The I-Drive Advantage
Directly On International Drive
There is a reason event planners keep coming back to this address. Vincenzo Cucina Italiana sits at 8255 International Drive, directly at ICON Park and across from the Orlando StarFlyer — the heart of Orlando's convention and tourism corridor. Not a side street. Not a strip mall. The real International Drive, where your guests already know how to get.
For convention coordinators and corporate event planners, that location changes everything. The Orange County Convention Center is just 1.8 miles south. Rosen Plaza, Rosen Centre, Hilton Orlando, Hyatt Regency — all within a few minutes' drive or shuttle ride. Your guests spend more time at the table and less time in transit.
And here is what makes the experience truly special: Vincenzo opens for dinner at 5 PM, so your daytime luncheon means the entire restaurant is naturally reserved for your group. No tourist lunch crowd. No shared dining rooms. No noise from other parties. Just your event, your guests, and a dedicated team focused entirely on making it exceptional.
Your Event. Your Location. Your Own Italian Restaurant on I-Drive.
