14 Best Italian Restaurants in Winter Park

“I recently visited Prato in Winter Park and had a wonderful experience. The place has a modern yet cozy atmosphere, perfect for both a special night out and a casual dinner.

I tried a pasta dish that was absolutely delicious – perfectly cooked al dente with a well-balanced sauce full of flavor. You could really taste the freshness and quality in every bite.

I also had a pizza that stood out for its details. The wood-fired crust was thin and crisp, and the toppings were carefully chosen. Each bite had the perfect balance between traditional Italian flavors and creative twists, making it unique compared to a regular pizza.

The service was also quick and attentive, which made the whole experience even better.

Overall, Prato is definitely a place I recommend. The food is authentic and flavorful, the atmosphere is inviting, and both the pasta and pizza were outstanding. I’ll definitely be coming back to explore more of the menu.“

“This place is a hidden gem. Excellent service and delicious food served in perfect proportions. My daughter insisted on going there for her birthday dinner because she loves the Filet Al Gorgonzola, which is divine. You can cut it with a fork, and melts in your mouth like butter 🤤. It’s going to coast you a little more than Outback or Olive Garden, but prices are reasonable considering the food & service quality they deliver, and they also have an excellent wine selection 🍷“

“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“

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

“Enjoyed late lunch Saturday.Love the music. Attentive waitress. Salad kept coming. Love the salad. Dinner entree ordered - eggplant parm - took half hour - 4 eggplant rounds sliced too thin - 1/4in and extra crispy with watery tasteless spaghetti. Should have sent it back.“

“We went today Saturday and as usual no disappointment. They had “The A team working. They were busy but made pleasant. My fav the grandma’s pizza a greek salad and some wine and “Bingo” also the music and the smiles from all of the staff is a plus. A +++“

“My husband and I popped in for dinner after he arrived home from a family event. We wanted a date night after being away from one another for several days/nights. It was our first time. I sent him the menu as he boarded his plane and he was looking forward to a “new spot”. It did not disappoint. We were attended to from the time we sat down until after we tabbed out. We tried several dishes to get an idea of their style of cooking. The prosciutto melted in our mouths.. the ricotta was extremely creamy and bread from Breadsmith? DELISH. The Italian wedding soup was delicious, the pig n’ fig pizza was excellent (kudos on the dough and crust!), the spicy vodka rigate was on point! Not too spicy.. just that perfect amount of crushed red pepper in the sauce. The wine list was an extensive and our servers (we love to sit at the bar) was top notch! (Forgive me because I’m bad with names but I believe they were Alyssa and Jackie?) it is now on our list of must return spots. They were jamming for a Wednesday night. We initially sat at the rail bar but a couple waved in our direction to let us know they were leaving in a few minutes. If you’re looking for a quiet, romantic spot, it’s not quiet but it doesn’t echo, either. The details are beautiful, the artwork is pleasant to the eye and it was a perfect romantic date night spot for us. One of the better Italian spots in the area. Kudos and thank you for a great evening! Oh. P.S. the 12 month prosciutto with ricotta “primi” is definitely enough to share with 4 people. lol. So good!“

“Thanks so much for accommodating our large party of 25 during a very busy lunch hour. Fabulous food Great service…“

“This is some of the best food you can have here. The freshness of the ingredients, perfect combining of flavors. Love it!!!“

“Golden Pizza is so delicious! 5 stars across the board here! The Mediterranean Pizza is worth the visit. Also, you absolute can order delivery on their website and you don’t have to add a tip if you don’t want too, or adjust how much you want to leave.“

“Very few Chicago style pizza places in Florida. This was a good one.“

“Daughter had blood work yesterday and wanted to get pizza afterwards found Pizzeria Valdiano, and it did not disappoint. The pizza tasted amazing. I had to get some slices to go. Will definitely be back and highly recommend this place if you’re in the winter park area“
