“Best valet experience in Orlando. Pulled up, car was taken immediately, greeted warmly. Then the food was even better than the service. Rare combination.”

Staybridge Suites feels like a home away from home — until dinnertime, when the kitchenette runs out of inspiration. Vincenzo Cucina Italiana on International Drive provides the solution: a full Italian dinner menu prepared from scratch by a kitchen that has been perfecting its craft since 2014.
Begin with the fried calamari served with spicy marinara and lemon aioli, the caprese salad with buffalo mozzarella and basil oil, or the clams casino with bacon and roasted peppers. Then choose from entrees like the gnocchi Sorrentino baked with fresh mozzarella and basil, the lamb chops with mint gremolata and roasted potatoes, or the linguine with shrimp in a garlic and white wine sauce.
Creekstone Farms provides every steak — USDA Prime Black Angus, grilled to order. The filet is tender enough to cut with minimal effort, finished with truffle butter. The NY strip delivers fourteen ounces of robust flavor. The bone-in ribeye at twenty ounces anchors any table.
Nothing pre-made. Nothing microwaved. Pasta rolled by hand, sauces cooked from whole ingredients, bread fresh from the oven. This is kitchen-to-table Italian in the truest sense.
Made Fresh Every Evening
Handmade pasta, risotto stirred to order, and sauces simmered for hours. That is the Vincenzo standard.
The Navarra Group's thirty-plus years of hospitality experience shaped Vincenzo from day one in 2014. The family built a restaurant designed to welcome everyone — tourists in sandals, convention-goers in blazers, families with strollers, couples celebrating milestones.
Over 4,000 guest reviews confirm the approach works. Guests highlight the hand-rolled pasta, the attentive but unhurried service, and the atmosphere that manages to feel both polished and relaxed.
For private gatherings, the Amalfi Room accommodates 15 to 50 guests with AV and custom menus. Full restaurant buyouts serve up to 150. Coordination, valet, and menu planning are included. Over 1,500 events completed.
What separates Vincenzo from the chains on I-Drive is straightforward: the food is made by people who care, for guests they treat like family.
We celebrated my promotion here. Started with cocktails at the bar, moved to dinner, finished with tiramisu and espresso. The whole evening was flawless.

For Staybridge guests looking to break up a week-long stay with a memorable meal out, the short drive to Vincenzo is one of the easiest decisions on the trip.
Third year in a row eating here during our Orlando trip. The menu keeps getting better. Added the short rib pappardelle this time. Incredible.
