Whether you are looking for pasta near I-Drive, handmade pasta near me, or Italian food near Orlando attractions, Vincenzo offers house-made gnocchi ($30), lobster ravioli ($44), filet and prosciutto tortellini ($36), short rib pappardelle ($34), lasagna ($24), and more with wine, cocktails, and complimentary valet parking near ICON Park.

Every morning before the dining room opens, the kitchen team at Vincenzo rolls dough, cuts noodles, folds tortellini, shapes gnocchi, and fills ravioli by hand. The pasta dough is made from flour and eggs. The gnocchi starts with real potatoes, riced and mixed until the dough is silky smooth. Nothing comes out of a box, and nothing arrives on a truck from a distributor. This is the process that has defined Vincenzo since the Navarra family opened the restaurant in 1991. Over thirty years later, the commitment has not changed.
