“Brought a group of twelve for my wife’s birthday and they handled everything perfectly. The Amalfi Room was gorgeous. Food was outstanding.”

The Menu
Housemade pasta, steaks, seafood, chicken parmigiana, lasagna, cocktails, wine, desserts, and a kids menu — all served in a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere.
Keep reading to learn more about Vincenzo
Hilton Vacation Club Polynesian Isles sits in the Kissimmee area, away from the main I-Drive corridor. But guests who drive 20 to 25 minutes to Vincenzo are rewarded with a dinner experience that no nearby chain can match — handmade Italian food, a full craft bar, and the kind of service that makes you feel like a regular on your first visit.
Start with the bruschetta classica or the carpaccio di manzo with arugula and parmigiano, then move to the tortellini with filet tips and prosciutto in garlic cream. The chicken piccata with capers and lemon butter is light and satisfying. The scallop risotto with truffle and porcini mushrooms is worth every minute of the drive.
USDA Prime steaks — filet, NY strip, bone-in ribeye — are all hand-cut from Creekstone Farms and cooked to order. The wine list covers Italian and California selections. The bar makes proper Negronis, Aperol Spritzes, and Espresso Martinis.
Make it a night on I-Drive. Dinner at Vincenzo, a walk around ICON Park, then back to the resort.
Freshness You Can Taste
Our kitchen preps everything daily — pasta, sauces, bread. Nothing comes from a can or a freezer.
Family ownership is not just a tagline at Vincenzo — it defines how the restaurant operates. The Navarra Group has been in the hospitality business for over 30 years, and they opened Vincenzo on International Drive in 2014 with the belief that Orlando deserved a genuine Italian restaurant, not another tourist-area imitation.
That commitment shows in the kitchen (every dish cooked to order, every pasta handmade, every steak hand-cut from Prime Creekstone Farms beef), in the dining room (servers who learn names, hosts who accommodate last-minute walk-ins), and in the details (complimentary valet, kids menu at $13, gluten-free and vegetarian options available).
For private events, the Amalfi Room seats 15 to 50 guests with custom menus and AV support. Full restaurant buyouts accommodate up to 150 for large celebrations, corporate dinners, or milestone events.
With 4,000+ reviews and a decade of service, Vincenzo has become the Italian restaurant that Orlando trusts.
We are from Montreal and eat Italian regularly. Vincenzo holds up against the best in our city. The linguine with clams was textbook perfect.

Black Angus from Creekstone Farms
Hand-cut, cooked to order, served with truffle butter and fresh sides every evening.
Hilton Vacation Club Polynesian Isles is in the Kissimmee area, about 20-25 Min from Vincenzo Cucina Italiana at ICON Park on International Drive. The drive is mostly highway — I-4 or 192 to International Drive — and guests consistently say the trip is worth it.
Complimentary valet parking is available every evening. Just pull up, hand off the keys, and walk in. No garage navigation. No parking fees. No stress.
International Drive offers a full evening beyond dinner: ICON Park has the Orlando Eye, attractions, shops, and entertainment. Pointe Orlando is nearby with additional dining and nightlife. The I-Drive corridor is a destination in itself.
The return drive to Hilton Vacation Club Polynesian Isles is easy — the same route in reverse, often with less traffic in the evening. Many guests plan their Vincenzo dinner as a midweek highlight of their Orlando vacation.
Came for a convention dinner with colleagues. The tortellini with filet tips blew everyone away. Great spot for business dining without the corporate feel.

The Menu Favorites
Scallop risotto with truffle. NY strip with herb butter. Linguine with clams. Guest favorites, every one.
Vincenzo's full bar is stocked for more than just wine with dinner. The Espresso Martini is a guest favorite, and the Aperol Spritz delivers a refreshing Italian aperitif that pairs perfectly with bruschetta or a cheese board.
Happy hour runs Monday all night and Tuesday through Friday from 5 to 7 PM. Prices drop to $4 for bottled beer, $7 for wine by the glass, and $10 for cocktails. On Wine Down Wednesdays, every glass of wine is half off all night.
Bring the group after your day out. Pull a few tables together, order appetizers family-style, and let the bartender mix a round of Negronis. That is how Vincenzo nights are meant to go.
For larger gatherings, ask about semi-private dining or the Amalfi Room. Custom menus and group accommodations are available for everything from birthday dinners to post-conference celebrations.
Brought the whole family after SeaWorld. The kids loved the chicken tenders and we loved the wine selection. Valet was a game changer.

The Italian Classics Done Right
Meatballs polenta. Lasagna bolognese. Fettuccine alfredo. Like dinner at your Italian grandma's house.
The reason Hilton Vacation Club Polynesian Isles guests keep choosing Vincenzo is simple: the food is excellent, the atmosphere is welcoming, and the experience feels personal. In a corridor full of corporate-owned restaurants, that combination is rare.
Come in shorts and flip-flops after the parks. Come in cocktail attire for date night. Come with kids. Come with clients. Come alone and sit at the bar. Vincenzo accommodates all of it without making anyone feel out of place.
A decade of service, 4,000+ reviews, and a family that still cares about every plate — that is what makes Vincenzo different, and that is why guests come back.
