The Hyatt Regency Orlando is the largest hotel on the convention campus — 1,641 rooms generating a constant demand for off-site dining. Vincenzo Cucina Italiana at ICON Park answers that demand with handmade Italian food, a full bar, and the kind of hospitality that hotel restaurants struggle to match.
The menu opens with starters like the grilled artichoke hearts with lemon aioli, the tuna carpaccio with capers and citrus, and the prosciutto-wrapped figs with gorgonzola cream. Entrees include the orecchiette with broccoli rabe and sausage, the veal ossobuco braised in tomato and red wine over risotto, and the pan-seared halibut with cherry tomatoes and olive oil.
Steaks at Vincenzo are exclusively USDA Prime Black Angus from Creekstone Farms. The filet is paired with truffle butter and seasonal greens. The fourteen-ounce NY strip arrives with a deep sear and herb butter. The twenty-ounce bone-in ribeye is the table's centerpiece.
Every dish is cooked from scratch in a kitchen that takes the term seriously — no frozen pasta, no pre-made sauces, no desserts from a distributor. The difference is apparent in the first bite.
Handmade Pasta & Italian Classics
Every dish is made from scratch, every night. This is what dinner at Vincenzo looks like.
Since 2014, the Navarra Group has built Vincenzo into one of International Drive's most respected restaurants. Three decades of hospitality experience guided every decision — from sourcing Creekstone Farms beef to training a service team that treats convention groups and walk-in families with equal care.
Over 4,000 reviews on Google, OpenTable, and TripAdvisor reflect a restaurant that delivers consistently. Convention attendees who find Vincenzo once tend to make it their default dinner reservation for every future Orlando conference.
The Amalfi Room serves groups of 15 to 50 with private dining, AV equipment, and tailored Italian menus. Full buyouts accommodate up to 150. More than 1,500 events — including hundreds of convention-related dinners — have been hosted.
For a hotel the size of the Hyatt Regency, having a restaurant like Vincenzo nearby is not a luxury — it is a necessity. And the Navarra family has proven they can handle the volume without sacrificing quality.

Started at happy hour and stayed for dinner. The Espresso Martini and lobster ravioli were both incredible.

The Dishes People Come Back For
Chicken parmigiana with spaghetti. Fettuccine alfredo with jumbo shrimp. Made fresh, every night.
