“The penne vodka with salmon was a dish I never would have ordered but our server recommended it. Best suggestion I have taken in years. Creamy, smoky, amazing.”

Rosen Shingle Creek delivers a resort experience with championship golf and upscale amenities, but its on-site dining options lean toward predictable hotel fare. Vincenzo Cucina Italiana at ICON Park offers convention guests and resort visitors a distinctly different experience — handcrafted Italian cooking on International Drive.
Open the meal with the grilled octopus over cannellini bean salad, the prosciutto and melon with aged balsamic drizzle, or the crispy zucchini flowers stuffed with ricotta. Main courses include the penne arrabbiata with spicy San Marzano sauce, the Chilean sea bass with prosecco butter, and the veal piccata finished with lemon, capers, and white wine.
Steaks come exclusively from Creekstone Farms — USDA Prime Black Angus, hand-selected and grilled over high heat. The filet is paired with truffle butter. The fourteen-ounce NY strip gets a garlic herb finish. The twenty-ounce bone-in ribeye satisfies the biggest appetites at the table.
Every component is prepared in-house: the pasta, the sauces, the bread, the desserts. This is restaurant cooking in its purest form — no assembly, no shortcuts, no compromise.
Where Every Plate Tells a Story
Hand-rolled gnocchi, slow-simmered sauces, steaks cut fresh daily. Real Italian cooking.
The Navarra Group brought three decades of hospitality knowledge to International Drive when they opened Vincenzo in 2014. Their philosophy was direct: source the best ingredients, cook everything from scratch, and build a restaurant that earns its reputation one plate at a time.
With 4,000+ reviews on Google, OpenTable, and TripAdvisor, the results speak for themselves. But the real indicator of quality is the number of guests who return — conference regulars who book Vincenzo before they book their hotel.
The Amalfi Room handles private events for 15 to 50 with full audiovisual support and customized Italian menus. Buyouts accommodate up to 150 guests. Over 1,500 events have run smoothly through the dedicated events team.
When resort guests and convention attendees want Italian food that matches the caliber of their accommodations, Vincenzo consistently delivers.
Came for a convention dinner with colleagues. The tortellini with filet tips blew everyone away. Great spot for business dining without the corporate feel.

Shingle Creek guests often discover that the short drive to Vincenzo rewards them with a dining experience well worth leaving the resort — and the free valet makes the return trip just as easy.
We found Vincenzo on our last night and wished we had come the first night. The lobster ravioli is the best I have ever had. Period.

Dishes That Define Vincenzo
Ossobuco over saffron risotto. Lobster ravioli in cream sauce. The plates that built our reputation.
