“Hands down the best Italian on I-Drive. The scallop risotto was restaurant-of-the-year quality.”

The Menu
Housemade pasta, steaks, seafood, chicken parmigiana, lasagna, cocktails, wine, desserts, and a kids menu — all served in a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere.
Keep reading to learn more about Vincenzo
Vincenzo is an Italian restaurant that takes its seafood seriously. The kitchen sources fresh fish daily — Chilean sea bass, Florida grouper, Atlantic salmon, jumbo sea scallops, Middle Neck clams, shrimp, crab, and lobster. Nothing frozen. Everything cooked to order.
The linguine frutti di mare brings it together: jumbo shrimp, scallops, grouper, and clams in cherry tomato sauce over fresh linguine. The scallop risotto layers truffle parmigiano with seared jumbo scallops. The lobster ravioli is stuffed with Maine lobster and ricotta in a creamy lobster reduction.
For a lighter plate, the Florida grouper with crab risotto and citrus beurre blanc is refined without being fussy. The penne vodka with pan-seared Faroe salmon balances pasta and seafood beautifully. Start with antipasto Italiano with imported salumi, parmigiano, and olives before the main course.
Vincenzo is not a seafood house — it is an Italian restaurant with seafood worth the trip. Pair any dish with Italian white wine and the evening takes care of itself.
Handmade Pasta & Italian Classics
Every dish is made from scratch, every night. This is what dinner at Vincenzo looks like.
Vincenzo is locally owned by the Navarra Group, a family with over 33 years of hospitality experience. Since 2014, the restaurant has served over a million guests — convention attendees, park visitors, and Orlando locals celebrating milestones.
That family foundation shapes everything. Servers greet guests warmly, the kitchen takes pride in every plate, and the atmosphere feels welcoming whether you arrive in a suit or shorts.
The Amalfi Room accommodates private gatherings of 15 to 50. Full restaurant buyouts handle 150 or more. Over 1,500 events hosted and counting.
In an area where chains dominate, Vincenzo stands apart as a restaurant built on family values and consistency.

Hand-cut, cooked to order, served with truffle butter and fresh sides every evening.
Step outside, head toward ICON Park, and you are at Vincenzo in minutes. No navigation app, no parking meter, no traffic.
Complimentary valet is available if you drive, but most nearby hotel guests walk. After a day at the parks, the short stroll to dinner feels like part of the vacation.
ICON Park comes alive in the evening — lights on The Wheel, music from the courtyard, families between attractions. Vincenzo sits right in that energy.
After dinner, walk back. No designated driver, no surge pricing. Just dinner and a short walk home.
We came after the parks with three kids still in park clothes. They did not bat an eye. Best dinner of our trip.

The Dishes People Come Back For
Chicken parmigiana with spaghetti. Fettuccine alfredo with jumbo shrimp. Made fresh, every night.
Vincenzo's full bar anchors the evening. Aperol Spritzes, Espresso Martinis, Negronis, Italian reds and whites, California cabernets, draft beer, and a cocktail list that changes with the season.
Happy Hour runs Monday all night and Tuesday through Friday from 5 to 7 PM. That means $4 beers, $7 wines, and $10 cocktails — the best deal on I-Drive for a pre-dinner drink. Wine Down Wednesday adds half-off wines by the glass for the entire night.
Group dining is available in the Amalfi Room for 15 to 50 guests or via full restaurant buyout for 150 or more. Custom menus, AV capabilities, and coordinated service make every event seamless.
From a solo Negroni at the bar to a 40-person rehearsal dinner, Vincenzo handles both ends of the spectrum.
Hidden gem on I-Drive. Not a chain, not overpriced tourist food. The tiramisu alone is worth the trip.

Made the Way It Should Be
Homemade lasagna. Meatballs with San Marzano sauce. The Italian food you remember, done right.
Shorts welcome. Business casual welcome. Date night welcome. Kids in strollers welcome. Vincenzo has seen it all and seats everyone the same way — warmly.
The food is upscale. The atmosphere is comfortable. The parking is free. And the kitchen is open every night from 5 to 10 PM with a full menu, a full bar, and a $13 kids menu.
That combination — great food, zero pretense, genuine hospitality — is why guests from Element Hotel Orlando keep Vincenzo on their dinner list.
