Dinner After Disney World — All 4 Parks

Walt Disney World has four theme parks, each with different closing times and different routes to International Drive. Whether you spent the day at Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, Hollywood Studios, or Animal Kingdom, Vincenzo is about 15–20 minutes east on I-4 and open until 10 PM every night. Here is how to plan dinner after Disney World by park.

Where to Eat After Magic Kingdom

Magic Kingdom typically closes between 9 and 11 PM depending on the season, with extended evening hours on select nights. After the fireworks, take the monorail or ferry to the Transportation and Ticket Center, then head east on I-4 to International Drive. The drive to Vincenzo is about 20 minutes. If you leave before closing, you can catch happy hour or enjoy a relaxed dinner without the post-fireworks rush.

Where to Eat After EPCOT

EPCOT usually closes at 9 PM, with extended hours on select nights. From the EPCOT parking lot, take I-4 East to the International Drive exit and head north. Vincenzo is about 15 minutes from EPCOT. After a day of walking the World Showcase, a sit-down Italian dinner with handmade pasta and a glass of wine is the perfect way to end the evening.

Where to Eat After Hollywood Studios

Hollywood Studios typically closes at 8 or 9 PM. From the parking lot, take I-4 East to International Drive. Vincenzo is about 15–20 minutes away. Leaving at park close gives you plenty of time for a full dinner before the kitchen closes at 10 PM.

Where to Eat After Animal Kingdom

Animal Kingdom usually closes the earliest of the four parks, often at 7 or 8 PM. From Animal Kingdom, head east on US-192 to I-4 East, then exit at International Drive. The drive is about 20 minutes. An early close means you can arrive at Vincenzo in time for happy hour — Monday all night, Tuesday through Friday 5–7 PM.

Directions from Disney World to Vincenzo

From any Disney World park, the route is similar: take I-4 East toward downtown Orlando and exit at International Drive. Head north on I-Drive to 8255 International Drive, inside Vue at 360, near ICON Park and the StarFlyer. Complimentary valet parking every evening. The drive is 15–20 minutes depending on traffic and which park you are coming from.

Timing Your Dinner After Disney

Vincenzo is open from 5 to 10 PM nightly. For a relaxed dinner after Disney World, plan to leave the parks by 7:30–8:00 PM. This gives you time for the drive, a drink at the bar, and a full meal. If you are visiting Animal Kingdom or leaving any park early, you can arrive in time for happy hour and make an evening of it. Reservations are recommended, especially on weekends — book on OpenTable or call (407) 745-4030.
