Real Italian Cooking Minutes from Hyatt Regency I-Drive

Convention dining does not have to mean settling. Vincenzo on International Drive is minutes from the OCCC area, serving handmade pasta, Prime steaks, and fresh seafood from a scratch kitchen.

The kitchen makes pasta daily. Gnocchi is rolled from potatoes. Ravioli is stuffed by hand. Sauces are built from San Marzano tomatoes. Steaks are USDA Prime Black Angus from Creekstone Farms — filet mignon, NY strip, bone-in ribeye.

Seafood includes Faroe Island salmon, honey-glazed with Brussels sprouts, lobster ravioli, short rib pappardelle with wild mushrooms. Every piece is fresh, never frozen, cooked to order.

For convention attendees tired of overpriced mediocrity, Vincenzo is the answer: real food, real service, real Italian.

Hospitality in the DNA

Why Hyatt Regency I-Drive Guests Feel at Home at Vincenzo

The Navarra Group did not learn hospitality from a training manual. Three decades in the business taught them that the best restaurants make people feel welcome — not impressed, not intimidated, just welcome.

At Vincenzo, that philosophy is everywhere. The host greets families and business groups with equal warmth. The server explains the menu without condescension. The kitchen handles dietary needs without fuss.

The Amalfi Room hosts private events for 15 to 50 guests. Full restaurant buyouts accommodate 150 or more. Birthday parties, rehearsal dinners, corporate groups, team celebrations — 1,500 events and counting.

4,000+ guest reviews reflect what a family-owned restaurant can achieve when the family actually cares about the result.

Real Italian food in a sea of chains. The valet was a lifesaver and the wine list was impressive.

That balance — upscale food, casual comfort — is what makes Vincenzo work for I-Drive. It is the restaurant that fits everyone.
