We had an unforgettable experience thanks to Franco! From the moment we arrived, he greeted us with such warmth and genuine care. It was my boyfriend’s birthday, and Franco went above and beyond to make it special, surprising us with a cake and candle that completely caught us off guard in the best way. His kindness, attention to detail, and top-tier customer service made our visit truly memorable. On top of that, the food was absolutely amazing! The pasta and appetizers were delicious—every bite was perfect. I can’t say enough good things about this place. I highly recommend it, and people like Franco are a big reason why. ¡Gracias, Franco!
Delicouse Italian food. We were impressed. Wifi worked well. They do include the tip on the bill so heads up.
Easily the best Italian in Orlando—no exaggeration. From the moment we walked in, the vibe was chef’s kiss. Beautiful ambiance, super date-night friendly, and honestly... the parking situation was a dream (which never happens on I-Drive). I had the chicken piccata and the Nutella cheesecake—both were insanely good. Fresh, flavorful, and clearly made from scratch. You can tell they care about every detail. Vincenzo’s feels like a cozy slice of Italy tucked right next to all the attractions. Can’t wait to go back!
I rarely hand out 5 stars, however we just had a great time interacting with the staff, has a wonderful meal and throughly enjoyed ourself. Great bar service, had a chance to speak to one of the owners. The wait staff was quick and delivered with a smile. The food was tasty - we had bruschetta, pasta fagioli, chicken piccata (great lemon sauce), and tiramisu. Large wine selection as well. A bit expensive, however it has been one of the best Italian food experiences that we have had in Orlando. Worth a visit!
What a wonderful experience and a pleasant surprise. I'm somewhat spoiled, coming from the New York metropolitan area, when it comes to good Italian food. Vincenzo Cucina is the real deal. The food was exceptional and the service was just as good. This will be my go to every time I'm in the area.
Wonderful steak and scallop risotto! The special on the Smokey old fashion. Server was prompt and engaging
Absolutely great Italian food. The beef Capriccio was amazing. And also, the 3 cheese tortellini. Bar service was polite and quick. The atmosphere of the restaurant is perfect, and a dim light setting.
If you’re in Orlando and looking for an authentic Italian dining experience, Vincenzo Restaurant is an absolute must-visit! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warm hospitality and a cozy atmosphere that truly transports you to Italy. The dishes are fantastic! Every detail of the cuisine is crafted with love and tradition. The pasta is fresh and delicious, the sauces are perfectly balanced, and the high-quality ingredients make all the difference. The service is also outstanding: the staff is attentive, friendly, and always ready to suggest the best dishes and wine pairings. Whether you’re visiting Orlando or live here, Vincenzo is a restaurant you can’t miss! A true Italian gem in the city. I’ll definitely be back!
