Best Steakhouse on International Drive

USDA Prime Steaks at an Italian Restaurant

International Drive has no shortage of steak restaurants. But most of them are serving USDA Choice, or worse, while charging prime prices and hoping you do not know the difference. At Vincenzo Cucina Italiana, every steak on the menu is USDA Prime, the highest grade available, representing the top two percent of all beef graded in the United States.

The difference is not subtle. USDA Prime has more marbling, more flavor, more tenderness. It is the grade served at the finest restaurants in New York and Chicago. At Vincenzo, you get that same quality alongside handmade Italian cuisine, a curated wine list, and a family-owned atmosphere that chain restaurants simply cannot replicate.

The Navarra family has been serving USDA Prime steaks for over 33 years. They do not compromise on the cut, the grade, or the preparation. If you are looking for the best steak on International Drive, this is where you end up.

The Cuts: Every One USDA Prime

• ✦ Filet Mignon — The most tender cut of beef. USDA Prime, prepared to your preferred temperature.
• ✦ New York Strip — Bold flavor, beautiful marbling, generous portion. Hand-cut every evening.
• ✦ Bone-In Ribeye — For the serious steak lover. USDA Prime ribeye with the bone for added flavor.

More Than Just Steak

What makes Vincenzo different from every other steak restaurant on International Drive is what surrounds the steak. At a typical steak spot, you get a steak and a baked potato. At Vincenzo, you get a USDA Prime steak alongside handmade gnocchi, pappardelle, tortellini, and lasagna. Fresh Chilean sea bass. Bruschetta and burrata to start. House-made tiramisu to finish. A curated Italian wine list that was built to pair with both steak and pasta.

This is not a steak restaurant that happens to serve Italian sides. This is an Italian restaurant that happens to serve some of the best steaks in Orlando. That is a critical difference, and it is why Vincenzo has been one of Orlando's favorites since 2014.

Wine and Cocktails for Steak

A great steak deserves a great glass of wine. Vincenzo's curated Italian wine list features bold Cabernets, elegant Barolos, and smooth Chiantis that pair perfectly with USDA Prime beef. The bar also serves classic cocktails including the Negroni, Old Fashioned, and Espresso Martini.

Happy hour runs Monday through Friday from 5 to 7 PM. Mondays, happy hour goes all night. Wine Down Wednesday features half off all wines by the glass, making it the best night of the week to pair a prime steak with an Italian red.

The Navarra Family, 33 Years

Vincenzo is not part of a restaurant group. It is not a franchise. The Navarra family has owned and operated this restaurant for over 33 years, and the owner is still here every single night. When a family stakes its name on a restaurant for three decades, the quality is not negotiable. The steaks are Prime because anything less would not meet the standard. The pasta is handmade because that is how it has always been done.
