Took my husband for his birthday. We started with the caprese and stuffed mushrooms, no regrets. The pesto stole the show and neither of us are pesto lovers. The fresh focaccia was warm and melted in your mouth.He had chicken parm and I had chicken Marsala, fabulous! Of course we couldn’t skip the tiramisu. Definitely will go back for more.

I was a skeptical but my husband wanted to go. We usually stay away from hotel or tourist places. But the food was delicious our server Angel did a good job. The drinks were good. It was a lovely meal. I was already enjoying my meal when I remembered to take a photo. We order off the seasonal menu again delicious.

This is the BEST food in the area, hands down. The chef is so creative, the food is so fresh, and the preparation is perfect. Discovered this place in April and have been back multiple times, trying something new each time (love the weekly specials menu). Each time I was amazed at the consistent quality of the food. This is NOT your typical hotel restaurant! I’ve eaten onsite and had great service, from the hostess Georgette, to our server. I’ve also done takeout there several times, and the quality was still outstanding. This place is the best kept secret on the island. I used to think the best food in the area was at the pricey Beachwalk Cafe at the Henderson B&B. But the food at Vincenzos is better, and less expensive. I only hope they can keep the chef happy, because he is a gem!!

Food is outstanding, and service incomparable. Michael is a great bartender and overall host. Would easily give Vincenzo’s 5 stars across the board, but this venue desperately needs some live music, at least Friday-Saturday. It stands out as one of the few restaurants on Okaloosa Island which does not have music. Not helping their business.

Excellent meal and wonderful service. Our server Kersha was attentive, sweet and friendly. The hostess gave us a great table even though she couldn’t find our reservation. They made the evening very special for my husband’s birthday. We highly recommend this hidden gem. We’ll definitely be back.

Don’t let the look of this place fool you. It’s inside the Marriott which threw us at first. Traditionally restaurants inside hotels are just mid. But this was surprisingly good! All of the service was amazing. Quick & friendly.
They started us with complimentary focaccia bread & seasoned olive oil that was fresh & delicious!!!!
We got the stuffed mushrooms appetizer they were yummy & definitely tasted like they were made fresh.
The shrimp scampi was absolutely fantastic! Shrimp were cooked perfectly & the sauce tasted home made.
My hubby had the veal Parmesan. The veal was amazing & cooked perfectly but the sauce was bland. Which was surprising & the reason for the 4 stars.
If I could give this 4.5 I would because the service & most of the food was amazing but that veal parm sauce tasted like it was out of a can.
They also gave us a complimentary chocolate covered strawberry at the end of the meal. Literally the best I’ve ever had. The chocolate was almost a little soft so it didn’t bust apart like they normally do.
I would still eat here again though just wouldn’t order the veal parm.

To begin with, the place is hidden on a dark Santa Rosa Blvd in the lobby level of a hotel. So if you are going, that GPS is critical. Upon getting there, you park and take the elevator up to the lobby. We were greeted by the hostess and were given an option of a couple tables to sit at. Once seated, the hostess gave us menus and the list with the weekly specials. We waited 5 mins for our waitress to swing by our table in a not so busy evening thus far. When the waitress came, she said hello and asked us if we were ready to order. Keep in mind, this is our first time here, so we were not that familiar with the menu, even though we had 5 mins to look at it while waiting for her. Once we said no, she then asked if we wanted to put in a drink order. We did and also two appetizers because we assumed we may not get another chance in the next several minutes. After that, the waitress came to the table pretty frequently. She brought us our first appetizer as well as bread. Had I known we were getting bread, we would have only order 1 app. This is one of the things that should be stated when first coming to a table, ” Hello, welcome, these are our specials, ill be bringing out the bread shortly, any questions” and so on. The apps were good. One of the best stuffed mushrooms I’ve had. The calamari was also good. For dinner, we got the veal parm (big serving), noodles, sauce, and cheese were good, the veal, not so much. The special was the crusted halibut. The veggies with it were good, but the fish was very bland. We live 30 mins away, so most likely will not be going back. We checked in the bar on the way out and it looks like a pretty nice setup for people stopping in and grabbing a drink. Plenty of parking was available as well.

The food was WOW Delicious!! Everything was seasoned perfectly, cooked to perfection, and the staff were friendly and amazing! I didn’t make reservations so when I told them we were there celebrating my son’s 16th birthday, I had no expectations. However, they brought out a candle and chocolate covered strawberries as a surprise! We were over the moon! Best restaurant in the area so far!! Can’t wait to go back!
