“Celebrated our 25th anniversary here. The ambiance was lovely, the wine pairing was spot on, and the tiramisu was the best we have ever had.”

Las Palmeras by Hilton guests have one of the easiest dinner decisions in Orlando: walk to Vincenzo Cucina Italiana at ICON Park. No driving, no rideshare, no parking hassle — just a short stroll to handmade Italian food, a full bar, and complimentary valet if you do bring a car.
The menu is built for every appetite: start with creamy burrata and prosciutto, then move to the lobster ravioli, chicken parmigiana, or a 10-ounce filet mignon with truffle butter. The homemade gnocchi in pomodoro with burrata and basil oil is the dish that first-timers order once and regulars order every visit.
The linguine with clams — Middle Neck clams sauteed in garlic, parsley, and white wine — is a textbook Italian classic done with precision and respect. The short rib pappardelle with marsala cream and wild mushrooms is for those who want something richer and more indulgent.
Desserts are all made in-house: tiramisu, chocolate mousse, Nutella cheesecake, limoncello cake. They are worth the walk and then some.
Made Fresh Every Evening
Handmade pasta, risotto stirred to order, and sauces simmered for hours. That is the Vincenzo standard.
When the Navarra family opened Vincenzo in 2014, they had a simple goal: build a restaurant they would want to eat at. Over 4,000 reviews later, that goal has become Orlando's gain.
The family brings over thirty years of hospitality experience to every evening service. The kitchen is staffed by cooks who know the recipes by heart, and the dining room is managed by a team that makes every guest — from convention-goers in business casual to families in flip-flops — feel equally valued.
Private dining in the Amalfi Room accommodates 15 to 50 guests. Full buyouts handle up to 150. The family has coordinated more than 1,500 events with custom menus, AV equipment, and personal attention that event planners appreciate.
Vincenzo is not part of a restaurant group. It is not a franchise. It is a single restaurant owned by one family who chose International Drive as their home and have invested everything in making it the best Italian restaurant in the corridor.
We were staying down the road and walked in without a reservation on a Saturday night. They seated us in 15 minutes. Food was incredible. Highly recommend.

Las Palmeras by Hilton is one of the closest hotels to Vincenzo Cucina Italiana. The restaurant sits at ICON Park on International Drive — walking distance from your hotel. No car needed. No rideshare. No parking headaches.
Complimentary valet is still available if you prefer to drive, but many guests enjoy the short walk along International Drive. ICON Park is well-lit, pedestrian-friendly, and home to shops, attractions, and entertainment beyond the restaurant.
Once at Vincenzo, the atmosphere shifts from tourist corridor to family restaurant. The dining room is warm and inviting. The bar is stocked for serious cocktails. The patio (weather permitting) offers a relaxed option for couples and small groups.
Being within walking distance means you can come back. And guests do — many Las Palmeras by Hilton visitors make Vincenzo a nightly tradition during their stay.
Came here after reading the reviews and they were all accurate. The chicken marsala was tender, the mushroom sauce was incredible. Very happy we found this place.
