“The best Italian restaurant in central Florida!“

“Love Prato! So much fun! Great food! ❤️🍷“

“Absolutely phenomenal! This has got to be the BEST pizza I’ve had in ages. We stumbled upon this gem and completely fell in love. The menu may be short, but they excel in every single thing they serve—and I’d argue they do it better than anyone else out there. We kicked things off with the Burrata with white truffle oil and Prosciutto, and it was beyond delicious—a perfect start. Then came the pizzas: the Meat Lovers and Star Luca. Unreal! Every bite was bursting with flavor, and it’s hard to believe that each pizza could be as exceptional as the last. And just when we thought it couldn’t get any better, we ended the meal with the Nutella Pizza with Bananas. How is it even possible for every single item to be this amazing? But it’s not just the food; the atmosphere and staff elevate the experience to a whole new level. Katherine, our server, was outstanding. She made us feel completely at home and had spot-on recommendations for everything. We even got to meet Marco, who may be the owner or GM, and either way, he’s clearly got a gift for running an extraordinary establishment. This place has officially won us over—we’re not just fans; we’re now loyal customers for life!“

“In town for a business event and happened to find this gem of a restaurant. I was lucky to be seated quickly because 85% of the tables were reserved. The staff was the most friendly and eager to please. Alexa in particular was dealing with some rather demanding customers, and she did it with a smile and grace. The six formaggi pizza was one of the best pizzas I’ve ever had- the crust was stuffed with ricotta and I was in heaven. The Gorgonzola was a very forward flavor, so if bleu cheeses aren’t your favorite I’d make the pizza a five formaggi instead. The chocolate mousse was also light and delicate. I will go out of my way to return on future trips to the area.“

“Just left there for my first visit and I found it to be slightful. My windiw seat was perfect, the jazz music , the cheese playecwas lovelybandvour waiter Leah was so carefulbtokeep us hapoy and cared for. I will be back very soon“

“Delicious and fresh classic Italian paired with amazing service is a win win!! We are always are greeted with a smile and welcoming vibe. Love this place so much!“

“love the food and the staff I recommend highly to everyone ❤️ always a great meal and love the owners truly the best !“

“This is our favorite pizza! My son won’t eat pizza from anywhere else unless he has no choice. The staff is wonderful and manages to give it a small- business feel without compromising quality. We tell everyone about it to make sure they are supported.“

“We had my sister’s college graduation dinner/party here and we had the best server, Nick!! The room was nicely set up and the service was incredible. Nick welcomed us like family, he was funny, energetic, engaging, and very helpful with our large party (26 people) even after having a long day. Also he served our party all by himself! The food was delicious and came out in a timely manner and it was all correct. The drinks and bread came out so quick and the refills kept coming (I think I drank at least 6 diet cokes and so much bread) all thanks to Nick! This dinner was amazing and a great memory and way to celebrate my sister. Thanks Carrabba and Nick! Can’t wait to have another party here!“

“I am a regular now, coming here at least once a week. Why? Quality ingredients, well prepared and smooth service. I like to eat low carb normally, but eat here to “carb up” for my long Saturday group bicycle ride. Mama mia! What a treasure has here in Salvatore’s depth of knowledge of cuisine.“

“Get to Cafe Paisano immediately! My wife, daughter, and I found Cafe Paisano while we were staying in Longwood on vacation. I had already eaten, they got some takeout, and when I tasted the food, I knew we would be headed back before we left. Cafe Paisano is a smaller, cute place with indoor and outdoor seating. We brought 12 people and they were happy to accommodate us in no time. Our group ordered a variety of entrees and EVERYONE loved their meal. Pizza, lasagna, pasta, everyone was happy and the portions were large. Our server was a young lady, but she was amazing! She handled our large, rowdy group very well with the skill of someone who had been serving for decades. She is probably the best server I have ever had. Upon arriving and before leaving I spoke briefly with the owner and he makes you feel right at home. Living close to New Orleans, it's hard to find a restaurant that will beat our favorite places in the city, but this little spot right here is an absolute hidden gem. Whenever I am in Orlando I will be stopping in to dine with these great people. Longwood is lucky to have them.“

“We got this for Super Bowl and it was so good- we will be back!!!“

“We love Stefanos. We have never had a bad dish and the service is always on point. They’re amazing at accommodating large groups. Stefanos is my very picky Italian mom’s favorite spots to hit when she visits. :)“

“Great family dining experience, highly recommend!“

“Local customer for years love it here only place that know how to make pizza. Also their sandwiches lasagna are great too no complaints.“

“If you appreciate fresh chef-inspired and chef-created Italian cuisine, then you MUST dine here. Truly authentic from the ambiance, the cozy intimate setting, to the tiramisu and espresso finale! Only wish we’d found this gem sooner!“

“DINNER REVIEW: LIL VINNY’S PIZZA 2200 Winter Springs Blvd Oviedo, FL 32765 I moved away from Oviedo for a few years, and during my somewhat lonely time living at the beach I decided to write restaurant reviews for every beachside restaurant in Flagler County. Now that I’m back home, I decided to continue writing reviews of the places I eat in Central Florida. For the first time in my life, I have a job where I can walk to nearby restaurants on my lunch break—and Lil Vinny’s Pizza and Pasta is just around the corner. I know real locals hate when Northern transplants talk about missing the pizza we grew up with—but the good news is, the pizza at Lil Vinny’s does remind me of New York pizza—it’s absolutely delicious. Also, I’ve lived in the South since the nineties so I’ll say whatever i want. I didn’t want to write a review that just says “the pizza is good,” so I expanded my menu exploration and tried their cold Italian sub. I’m even pickier about subs than I am about pizza, but this one passed the test. It contained ham, salami, prosciutto, and provolone cheese topped with lettuce, tomato, and onions. I cheated a little bit because I took it home and added the cherry pepper relish I pretend to import from Philly but actually buy in the condiment section of Publix. Anyway, the sandwich is just about perfect and the best part about it is how fresh their rolls taste. Anyone can throw a salad on some deli meat and call it an Italian sub—but it takes attention to detail to get the bread right, and Vinny nails it. Sunday night I went wild and treated myself to a meat lover’s Stromboli—and maybe I said “with extra cheese” when i placed my order—and it was by far the best decision of my three day weekend. Their Stromboli is probably not meant for a single guy to eat alone, and so let’s pretend I cut it into three parts and savored it for several different meals. It was FANTASTIC. I went to the gym afterward maybe. Lil Vinny’s is the perfect hometown pizza place, where the servers know many of the customers by name, where teenagers want to go after the game, and where families push three tables together and order a ton of food to share. I ordered a stack of pizzas to treat my students during a long rehearsal at OHS, and the boss delivered them himself and refused a tip. “It’s for the kids,” he said. Lil Vinny’s knows how to make you feel welcome in your own hometown.“

“We wanted to compare this place to what we experienced in Rome. It’s not Rome but it captures the essence. Enjoy.“

“Honestly, how could I not leave 5 stars? The atmosphere and service are always excellent, but the food is on another level. Every single time I visit, I order the shrimp pesto fettuccine and it hits the spot perfectly—absolutely incredible! Pro tip: start your night with the calamari rings and definitely save some room for the tiramisu and cannolis (good luck with that!) 😆

Excellent sunset 🌇 really good places around , you can park at the publix parking lot (free) if is not to hot take the outside table 😉“

“parking could be better, only been here twice but husband LOVES the meatball sub. I get their American sub and it is delicious! it is always packed. I wish they have another location besides just this one. The food, you just cannot go wrong no matter what you get. whether it's fresh or not. and the staff is amazing, they are all on top of everything!!!“

“My wife and I was searching for a place to get some authentic pizza. We traveled to Del-Dio Italian Restaurant from Apopka Florida. When we arrived we were greeted by, I think her name was Lena or leann. However, she was very friendly. I said to my wife, since we've driven this far, why not try multiple items from the menu. We ordered pizza, philly steak, calzon etc. Everything was great. We will be back, if you haven't tried the food. It is a must have. Thanks for the service and the great food.“

“Kristin was a fantastic waitress. She took care with our order. All the food came out fresh and hot. The cooks served food that was outstanding and fresh. Thank You for an awesome dinner!!“

“Took a shot and thought we’d try this restaurant. So glad we did! The food and service are amazing. I recommend this restaurant. We enjoyed this so much we ordered food to go too.“

“Mila was our server and she was very kind, professional, efficient and poised. She took great care of our group. Our food…amazing. The servings were HUGE and flavorful. A big plus: Darryl (host) was so kind and fun as he volunteered to take many pics of our group in front of the ristorante. He and Mila are great ambassadors of your business. We will return. Grazie !! 🇮🇹“

“Just had an amazing dinner at Osteria Ester, and it’s quickly becoming one of my favorite spots in Orlando. The vibe is cozy yet upscale—dark, warm lighting, beautiful interior, perfect for date night or a chill evening out with friends.

Service was impeccable—our server was attentive, knowledgeable about the menu, and made the whole experience feel welcoming. Portions are generous, and everything tastes fresh and made with care. It’s clear Chef Michael Cooper put heart into this place (named after his grandma—love that touch).“

“Elizabeth was AMAZING! She was super attentive, always checking on us and offering things. The food was great. I had the red snapper special. Massive portion - I had to take home half in order to have dessert.. Had their tiramisu and espresso for dessert. Highly recommend. Ask for Lizzy!! Will definitely come again.“

“Food was excellent tonight!! We did take-out“

“Delicious! Recommend highly. 5 stars!“

“My first time was excellent, server Anthony was informative and very helpful, asked question knew the answer to make my experience amazing. Highly recommend this location based on the food tasting homemade not processed like other restaurants. Go see Anthony here at the sanford location.“

“Came in there on last Friday , I was greeted by a young lady by the name of Felicia who patiently waited for me at the podium. What was more impressive my mother who turned 89 which I informed Miss Felicia she the told me what she and her staff could do to make her day significant. Her patience , service we received , her smile . The best service ever ever had in our lives. She is the best Olive Garden has a great server to represent them . She loves what she does and it really shows . Please award her for giving such great service. a memorable moment we will never forget. We were headed back to Vero Beach and decided to stop for lunch , the best decision we could have made.“

“it was a Great experience friendly staff and and great food and went home stuffed“

“The food was amazing and Alberto was the person who help me navigate a the info there and was really useful.“

“This is my absolute new favorite if you are anywhere near Lake Mary or the Orlando area. We ordered three appetizers. Had wine and cocktails and everything was delectable. The service was beyond amazing and the staff made us feel like family. I am usually extremely picky and always find at least one fault….i could not find one and this place. It makes me want to move to Florida. I can’t wait to go back!“

“Highly recommended. Great food and great service!“

“We eat here at least once a week. The Gino's special pizza is our absolute favorite. The service is beyond description. Wanda, Karen, Jordan and the owner (I assume Gino) make us feel like we're in Cheers, where everybody knows your name. Its a neighborhood restaurant where you feel and are treated like family. We love this place. We usually sit at the bar and inevitably we meet wonderful people who make our meal that much more enjoyable. LOVE THIS PLACE.“

“fast service, excellent sauce, pleasant atmosphere and friendly staff. A+++“

“Awesome food !“

“Great food I ordered the 3 different pasta it was delicious!!“

“Their are clearly mark take out and delivery. Do you feel the same way when you go papa johns or Dominos and there is no sitting.“

“Wonderful food, owners and staff! Calzones and the anti pasta are my favorites! keep up the great work!“

“As someone who loves Italian food I must say this place went beyond my expectations. We ordered the fried mozzarella and the pizza bruschetta for our appetizers and they were absolutely delicious. We got the chicken alla vodka pasta and the arrabiata pasta and they both came out perfect, the pastas were cooked to perfection and the sauces were super flavorful. Fratelli’s was overall an amazing experience for us, the food felt authentic and was very filling. I would recommend anyone in the area to visit!“

“I have tried this place a few times. The pizza is ok. There are a few specialty pizzas that are absolutely delicious. Everyone is very nice. But I just have a very hard time understanding how they can change so much money for pizza.
Pizza is better and. Cheaper in NY. Fix your prices and maybe you may get some more customers.

We had 4 people and they brought out 1 persons food 15 min before our pizza was ready. All food should come out the same time hot and fresh.“

“Opening night at Grappolo Cucina Italiana, an authentic Italian restaurant. The food was a-mazing! I’ll be dreaming about it. The atmosphere was welcoming and vibrant! A beautiful evening to enjoy a great meal with family and friends!“

“The food is always prepared perfectly. Chefs Tony and Ryan do an awesome job making sure everything is cooked to your liking. Annmarie and Amy make sure the customers are taken care of as far as drinks and service are concerned. Always friendly and accommodating. A very friendly atmosphere, great for a night out with friends or a date night.“

“This Olive Garden always had great food and service.
My Wife and I recently placed an order on their app for delivery. The order was exact and made to perfection, however the delivery was disappointing. We thought they had their own delivery service, but is is through a third-party.
Our food was made perfect and on time, but then sat there and got cold while the driver collected and performed several other deliveries.
The manager, Tay, was very understanding did everything she could to make it right and I wish I could give her 10 stars; thank you so much for taking care of us.“

“Came in for the first time last night. Service and food were phenomenal. HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!“
