The Renaissance Orlando Deserves a Better Dinner Option

The Renaissance Orlando at SeaWorld is one of the largest convention and resort hotels in the area. Thousands of guests pass through every week for conferences, trade shows, family vacations, and weekend getaways. The hotel itself is comfortable, but when dinner rolls around, the on-property options leave most guests wanting something more. You did not travel to Orlando to eat a forgettable hotel meal at conference-center prices.

Vincenzo Cucina Italiana is about a 5 to 15 minute drive on International Drive and it is exactly the kind of dinner you came to Orlando hoping to find. Located at Vue at 360, Vincenzo has been serving Italian cuisine for over 33 years. Handmade pasta, USDA Prime steaks, fresh seafood, Italian wines, and craft cocktails in an elegant dining room with complimentary valet parking. Whether you are wrapping up a convention day or coming back from SeaWorld and Aquatica with the family, this is the restaurant near the Renaissance Orlando that people remember long after they check out.

A Short Drive from the Renaissance, A World Away from Hotel Dining

The drive from the Renaissance Orlando at SeaWorld to Vincenzo takes about 5 to 15 minutes depending on traffic straight up International Drive. No highway, no tolls, no guessing. And when you arrive, our complimentary valet is waiting at the door so you do not have to circle a parking garage or walk across a sprawling hotel lot. You pull up, hand over the keys, and walk into a cool, candlelit dining room where the pasta was rolled by hand that afternoon.

This is the difference between eating at a hotel because it is convenient and dining at a restaurant because it is genuinely good. Our kitchen runs on fresh ingredients, not shortcuts. The lasagna Bolognese is layered and baked in-house. The gnocchi is hand-rolled in sage brown butter. The Bone-In Ribeye is USDA Prime. The Chilean Sea Bass is pan-seared to order. Pair any of it with a glass from our Italian wine list or a craft cocktail from the bar, and you have the kind of evening that makes a trip feel complete.

Perfect for Convention Groups and Corporate Dinners

If you are attending a convention at the Renaissance Orlando and need a private dining experience off-property, our Amalfi Room seats 15 to 50 guests with all-inclusive packages starting at $110 per person. Instead of booking a generic hotel banquet room, bring your team or clients to a real restaurant where the food is exceptional and the atmosphere is memorable. Corporate dinners, team celebrations, client entertainment, and closing-night gatherings all work beautifully here. We handle the menu, the service, and the details so you can focus on your guests.

After SeaWorld or Aquatica, Eat Like You Mean It

Families staying at the Renaissance Orlando are usually visiting SeaWorld and Aquatica, which are right the hotel. After a full day of roller coasters, dolphin shows, and waterslides, the last thing anyone wants is another theme park food court meal. Vincenzo is close enough to be easy but far enough from the parks to feel like a real escape. The kids can finally sit down somewhere quiet, and the adults can finally have a proper glass of wine. Monday Happy Hour and Wednesday Wine Down offer even more reasons to make the drive up International Drive.
