Casual Dress Welcome
Your family just spent all day in a water park. Nobody packed a blazer. That is perfectly fine. Vincenzo is comfortable and welcoming. The atmosphere is warm and relaxed, not stuffy. Come as you are after a day at the slides. The food is what matters, and the food here is made from scratch every single day by a family that has been doing this since 1991.
Parents Deserve a Real Dinner Too
Water park days are for the kids. Dinner at Vincenzo is for the parents. While the kids dig into pasta and chicken from the kids menu, the adults can finally relax with a glass of Italian wine, a plate of lobster ravioli, or a USDA Prime filet mignon. Craft cocktails, an Italian wine list, and housemade desserts round out an evening that reminds you why you planned this vacation in the first place.
