Welcoming Italian dining on International Drive. Handmade pasta, steaks, seafood. Everyone is welcome. 4,000+ guest reviews.
When you search for a casual Italian restaurant in Orlando, you want real food in a relaxed atmosphere. Not a chain with microwaved pasta, and not a place where you feel judged for wearing sneakers. Vincenzo Cucina Italiana on International Drive is the kind of restaurant where the food is made from scratch, the atmosphere is warm, and everyone from families to couples to tourists in park clothes feels right at home.
The Navarra family has been cooking on I-Drive for over 33 years. Every pasta is handmade fresh that morning. The steaks are USDA Prime. The seafood is fresh. And the service treats every guest like a regular. Over 4,000 guest reviews across Google, OpenTable, Yelp, Tripadvisor, and Facebook tell the same story: great food, great atmosphere, no pretension.
Casual does not mean careless at Vincenzo. Every pasta dish is made by hand that day. The House-Made Gnocchi, Lobster Ravioli, Short Rib Pappardelle, Filet and Prosciutto Tortellini, and Lasagna are all prepared fresh in the kitchen. USDA Prime steaks include filet mignon, a 14-ounce New York Strip, and a 20-ounce Bone-In Ribeye. Fresh seafood features Chilean Sea Bass, Faroe Island Salmon, Florida Grouper, and Scallop Risotto.
The difference between Vincenzo and the casual Italian chains on I-Drive is simple: everything here is real. Real pasta, real ingredients, real cooking. That is what over 33 years of family ownership gets you.
Vincenzo is the kind of casual Italian restaurant in Orlando where you can bring the whole family after a day at the parks and nobody bats an eye. The Lasagna at $24 is a hit with kids and adults. The Chicken Marsala at $27 is comfort food made right. The Gnocchi is the kind of dish that turns kids into pasta fans for life.
For groups, the menu has enough range that everyone finds something they love. Share some appetizers, order a bottle of wine, and enjoy a meal that feels like a proper Italian dinner without any of the stiffness. Tourists, locals, families, couples, groups of friends, they all sit in the same dining room and have a great time.
Happy hour runs Tuesday through Friday from 5 PM to 7 PM. Monday happy hour lasts all night. Wine Down Wednesday features half off all wines by the glass. Draft beers from $4, wines by the glass from $7, craft cocktails from $10. The bar at Vincenzo is one of the most relaxed spots on International Drive in Orlando.

"We came straight from Universal in shorts and t-shirts and felt completely welcome. The gnocchi was unbelievable and the staff treated us like family. This is what casual Italian should be."
"Brought the whole family including two kids under 10. Everyone loved it. The lasagna was a hit, my husband's steak was perfect, and the atmosphere was relaxed and comfortable. Not a chain, not stuffy. Just right."
"A group of us went after a convention and Vincenzo was exactly what we needed. Good food, good drinks, casual vibe, and the valet was a nice surprise. Way better than the chains on I-Drive."
