What to Do on International Drive Orlando

International Drive offers some of Orlando’s most recognizable attractions, making it an ideal destination for visitors who want entertainment, sightseeing, and dining in one area. At ICON Park, guests can enjoy views from the Orlando Eye, experience the thrills of the Orlando StarFlyer, discover marine life at SEA LIFE Orlando Aquarium, or explore the celebrity exhibits at Madame Tussauds Orlando.

After choosing the activities that fit their interests, visitors can enjoy dinner at Vincenzo Cucina Italiana, a family-owned restaurant serving Italian cuisine since 2014. The combination of attractions, cocktails, and a complete Italian dinner creates an enjoyable way to experience International Drive.

Begin with a Negroni or Aperol Spritz alongside Calamari or Bruschetta Classica. For dinner, Filet & Prosciutto Tortellini offers a rich pasta selection. Florida Grouper with Crab Risotto provides a distinctive seafood alternative. Happy Hour Monday from 5–10 PM, Tuesday through Friday from 5–7 PM. Wine Down Wednesday: half off wines by the glass all evening. Tiramisu or Cannoli for dessert.

International Drive is filled with things to see and experience, but a memorable Italian dinner provides the perfect way to bring the entire evening together.

Getting Around I-Drive

How to Get Around: I-Ride Trolley

The I-Ride Trolley is the best way to get around International Drive without renting a car or paying for rideshare every time. The Red Line runs from Pointe Orlando at the north end down to SeaWorld at the south, covering almost all major hotels, restaurants, and attractions on I-Drive.

Stop 14 on the Red Line is ICON Park — where Vincenzo is located. Rides are $2 per trip, and the trolley runs approximately every 20 minutes from early morning until 10:30 PM daily. If you are staying at a hotel on I-Drive, there is a very good chance the trolley stops nearby or directly in front of your property.

For convention attendees staying near the Orange County Convention Center, the trolley connects to ICON Park in minutes. And for visitors coming from Universal, Epic Universe, or SeaWorld, ICON Park is well within a short trolley ride or direct rideshare along I-Drive.

Vincenzo also offers complimentary valet every evening for guests who drive. Between the valet and the trolley, getting to and from dinner is always easy.

Took the I-Ride Trolley from our hotel to ICON Park and had dinner at Vincenzo. $2 each way and walked right into the restaurant. Genuinely one of the best Italian meals I have had in Florida. The gnocchi and the tiramisu are worth every penny.

Why Visitors Choose Vincenzo on I-Drive

International Drive is full of restaurants — but most of them are chains, hotel cafes, or tourist traps with average food at inflated prices. Vincenzo is different. It is a family-owned Italian restaurant with a real kitchen, real hospitality, and food that people talk about after the trip is over.

The Navarra Group opened Vincenzo in 2014 and has been building it into one of the most consistently reviewed restaurants in Orlando ever since. With 4,000+ reviews on Google, OpenTable, TripAdvisor, and Yelp, it is not a hidden gem — it is a well-known destination for travelers who want something better than a chain.

No dress code. Kids welcome. Shorts and vacation clothes are always fine. Complimentary valet every evening. Happy hour Monday all night and Tuesday through Friday 5 to 7 PM. Kids menu for ages 10 and under at $13 with a beverage.

When you are planning your day on International Drive, dinner at Vincenzo is the right move. Everything else fits around it.
