Viola & Dot's Italian Kitchen & Pizzeria

We were the only customers in the entire place, and from the second we walked in, it felt like we were an inconvenience just for placing an order. The worker behind the counter literally shook her head at us like we were bothering her.

We ordered a pizza and then waited… and waited… and waited. After 30 minutes, we finally asked about our order, only to be told that it hadn’t even been started yet. No apology, no explanation — just a shrug.

Completely unprofessional, and honestly just rude. If you’re not in the mood to serve customers, maybe don’t be open. We walked out without even bothering to wait any longer. Never again.

To make it worse, we had to leave and rush to the arena, hoping we hadn’t missed my daughter’s event because of this ridiculous delay.

Unprofessional, rude, and completely disorganized. Never coming back.

Delicious food, fast! You can choose your own components. We always get the salad. Lots of great veggies and delicious dressings. You can add protein or cheeses too. Great service , the staff is very nice !!

Dare I say, the best pizza in Ocala?
I’ve had this pizza before, but something has definitely changed…in the best way. We ordered the Margherita, and the cheese-to-sauce-to-crunchy-crust ratio was absolute perfection. Whatever they’re doing now, it’s working. Service was quick and professional and the restaurant was spotless. We’ll definitely be back!

I don’t know how anyone can say anything tasted good here… must be fake reviews. Worst pizza in Florida at a world class place. Get rid of this place WEC and put something authentic in. Something has to be incredibly terrible for me to leave a review.

Adorable pizzaria and pasta salad bar in the middle of the world equestrian center. Food was freash and hot. Delicious Pepperoni cups were holding the oil, crust baked to perfection. Garlic knots were soft and buttery with perfect amount of garlic. Will definitely be back when I’m ocala.

Beautiful place. Right in the middle of all the entertainment and grand plaza. Delicious pizza, pasta, and salad bar to choose from! I’ve never seen so many choices for toppings! Will definitely be back.

Loud. Crowded. Mediocre food. Decent choice only if you’re completely desperate.

I got a sicilian slice of pizza. I don't know how long it had been sitting under the light, but it was very difficult to chew the dough. Very disappointed

Food is mid for the price. Pizza by the slice is cold. Service is great though.

Overpriced. Food is cardboard and not freshly made.

Parking: Parking is difficult to find and then it is a long walk to the restaurant.

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes, it is wheelchair accessible but a long trip to get to the restaurant.

Chef came out. That was nice. Pizza was nice too. One slice is $5. Thin crust. Not too saucy. I like that. Garlic not were nice too. With they had a pesto sauce. Large salads. Lasagna was a nice portion too. Was too hungry and for pics. ??‍♀️
