Staying at Residence Inn by Marriott Orlando Convention Center? Vincenzo Cucina Italiana at ICON Park is just 0.7 miles away — an easy 15-minute evening stroll via Universal Blvd. Handmade pasta, Prime steaks, fresh seafood, and craft cocktails every evening from 5 to 10 PM.
The walk takes you along Universal Blvd toward International Drive, where ICON Park lights up every evening — families and couples strolling between The Wheel, StarFlyer, and restaurants. Vincenzo sits right at the heart of it, directly across from Orlando StarFlyer.
Inside, the kitchen operates on a scratch basis. Every pasta is made in-house. Every steak is Prime Black Angus from Creekstone Farms. The fettuccine pesto with sundried tomatoes and lobster ravioli in creamy lobster sauce are dishes guests talk about long after the trip.
Whether you are in town for a convention at OCCC or visiting the parks, the 15-minute walk to dinner is the perfect way to unwind. No parking stress, no rideshare surge, no driving after wine. Just an easy evening stroll and a real Italian meal.
Handmade Italian — A 15-Minute Walk from Residence Inn Convention Center
Every dish made fresh nightly. Walk over from Residence Inn Convention Center and sit down to something real.
Vincenzo opened at ICON Park in 2014 and has been the neighborhood Italian restaurant ever since. The Navarra Group, the family behind it, has 33 years of hospitality experience — and it shows in the warmth of the greeting, the pace of the service, and the consistency of every plate.
The dining room fills with a genuine mix: convention attendees, hotel guests, park visitors, Orlando locals, families celebrating. No two tables look the same, and that is the point. Vincenzo is for everyone.
Kids are welcome — the $13 kids menu includes a beverage and options like spaghetti with meatballs, chicken tenders, and cheese ravioli. Parents relax, kids eat, everyone leaves happy.
Business travelers staying near the convention center especially appreciate the easy walk — a proper sit-down Italian dinner without needing a car after a long day of meetings.
