A Better Dinner Than the Hotel Ballroom
Every year, the Orange County Convention Center hosts millions of visitors for trade shows, medical conferences, technology expos, and corporate events. And every year, event planners face the same challenge: finding a private dinner venue that serves food worth remembering. Vincenzo Cucina Italiana offers a genuine alternative — a family-owned Italian restaurant on International Drive with a dedicated private dining room built for convention groups.
Located at 8255 International Drive, Vincenzo is near the Orange County Convention Center. It is about a 5 to 15 minute drive depending on traffic. The Amalfi Room provides a fully enclosed private space with custom menus, dedicated servers, and the kind of food that makes your dinner the highlight of the conference — not an afterthought.

Escape the Hotel Banquet Hall
Convention dinners at hotels follow a predictable script: a generic room, mass-produced food, and a bill that exceeds expectations for a meal nobody remembers. The Amalfi Room at Vincenzo rewrites that script entirely. Your guests sit in an elegant, enclosed dining space inside one of Orlando's favorite Italian restaurants, eating food that is made from scratch — handmade gnocchi, fresh tortellini, steaks, and seafood that arrived that same day.
The Navarra family has been running this restaurant for over 33 years. They understand what convention groups need: efficient service that respects a tight schedule, flexible seating arrangements, dietary accommodations handled without drama, and a menu that gives your attendees something worth talking about at the next morning's sessions.
