If you want "Italian" fast food this is the place for you ! I loved this place as a kid and the food is still good. Where else can you get a Duo (half lasagna and half fettuccine Alfredo) with breadsticks for $5.99??? Nowhere but Fazoli's !!! they have a lot of different items on their menu and they even have a drive thru! They have indoor seating too. The service could be better of course but the food was hot and you cannot beat that price. Olive Garden is probably serving the exact same food these days lol and it's way more than $5.99
The food was good for a quick serve pasta restaurant. We had baked ziti, fettuccine Alfredo and unlimited breadsticks. For customer service you walk up and placed your order and you sit down at the table and they brought the food to you and they kept checking back to make sure that we had everything we needed. The ambience of the restaurant it's a quick service food restaurant, but it was clean bright.
Honestly? Nostalgia at its best. I grew up going to Fazoli's as a kid and years later, returning for a late night bite? I was pretty impressed! The food isn't Michelin Star quality, but it's solid enough for quick service pasta, plus you get unlimited breadsticks! The price was also incredibly reasonable. They had a deal on my half lasagna, half Alfredo for around $6. Ambiance wise, the decor is a bit dated, but clean so was happy with that. Most of all, I was really impressed by how kind the workers were! The girl at the counter gave great recommendations and brought us more breadsticks, too.
I think many of us can agree that Fazoli's holds a very nostalgic place in our hearts. For me, this is the place my family and I would go to almost every other Friday when I was a teenager. It had that intense garlic aroma in the air, and you'd always see someone holding a basket full of breadsticks, passing them around. In many ways Fazoli's has stayed the same. That intense garlic aroma hit me the minute we walked in. I was also surprised to see that prices were reasonable when compared to other fast-food places. If you have their app, you can get $5 off an order that's at least $20 so I took advantage of that. We ordered. For nostalgia's sake I ended up ordering what I always use to get, their baked spaghetti in marinara sauce. It was good, but I feel like the food overall was salty. I honestly couldn't tell you if it always salty and I'm more conscious of it now as I eat healthier than when I was teenager or ...it just got saltier. Something happened with our order and my mom's baked tortellini took a really long time to come out. I ended up sharing my meal with her, and it was actually enough that both she and I were full with just the 1 baked spaghetti entree. We had to ask for breadsticks because also for some reason we didn't get any initially with our meal, so it seems like they need to work out a few issues. The good thing though was that because my mom's meal took so long to come out, they were very apologetic, and we got a free dessert and that was honestly probably the best tasting thing out of everything we ate that night. Their New york style cheesecake with strawberry sauce is pretty amazing, and I was surprised to see that it's under $5. I should also add that I was surprised to see how busy they were for a Tuesday night. It was both full inside as well as the drive thru. Overall, I give them a 3.5 but rounded it out to 4. This is probably a place I'd go to once in a great while. Preferably after a long run so the sodium content wont skyrocket my blood pressure.
I remember this chain from years ago. I was a little hesitant to try but have to say it's great for a quick bite. Certainly this is not fine Italian dining but in my opinion it's equal to the Olive Garden and much cheaper. We opted to get the Fettuccini Alfredo which comes with unlimited bread sticks like that other place when you dine in. We also added 2 slices of pepperoni pizza. I was not a fan of the pizza as it felt like reheated frozen pizza so I would certainly pass on that next time. The pasta was great though and I as I mentioned equivalent to Olive Garden at almost half the price. I did notice that it seemed to have a strong garlic flavor which I enjoyed but if you are not a fan of garlic then be warned. The restaurant was very clean and the staff was super pleasant and helpful with navigating the package options to get the most out of my money. Next time I am short on time and feel like some pasta this would definitely be a great option.
Stopped in for lunch. I got the spaghetti for $8.99. Which is honestly a steal! Plus they give you breadsticks. The service was quick and he food was hot! This was perfect for an afternoon out!! It was very clean and nice staff inside. The color scheme of the inside is red and green like the Fazoli's logo. 10/10 Definitely coming again!
Stuffa You Face with AYCE Breadsticks!!! Sounds like my kind of place for sure. The resurgence of Fazoli's is amazing as usually when something starts to go away, it rarely comes back. But just like "My Boyfriend's Back" (80's comedies were the best), Fazoli's is coming back strong. They have a variety of combo meals and I'll say I'm a huge fan of their pizza topped pastas. Think pasta, but topped like your favorite slice, and baked piping hot. Yum. And if that's not enough, you can make it a combo. But here's where it gets bonkers, you can use the combo to get a slice of pizza! Whaaaaaaaa....? Just when you thought you died and gone to carb heaven, they throw in all you can eat (AYCE) breadsticks. Yes, I opened with that, but in case you forgot already, they literally walk around like their serving hors d'oeuvres to the Hollywood elite, only it's soft pillowy breadsticks to the eager patrons looking to maximize their dollar. Is the food high quality? Heck no, but it's good for the price. What's a matta' you? Shaddap You Face and go here already!
There was no line at the drive thru when I arrived which was nice. The guy who took my order was patient and nice. The girl who gave me my food however was not as kind when I mentioned I still needed my drink. Then she stopped to have a whole conversation while my drink sat there on the fountain. Weirdly rude and unbelievable. The food was hot and fresh, even when I got home over 30 minutes later. The breadsticks were delicious. If I was in the area would go again, but hopefully the girl who gave me my food won't be there.
Best Italian fast food in Orlando! The baked ziti is my fave, total comfort food! The breadsticks are the best, way more flavorful than OG! Johndavid was the associate that took my order, then he brought me my food, grated fresh parm on it and proceeded to come around and ask me if I needed anything else. Then he took my empty dishes away! Such great and friendly service! I wish it was closer to me!
Love this chain and was so happy to not only see that it was coming back to Orlando, but that it was a five-minute drive from us! They have calmed down from the initial rush they had when they first opened, which is nice. I recommend coming into the parking lot from the back side if you can as it's an easier way to get to the spots and avoid the 50 entrance. The staff is what one would expect from a quick-serve environment. Nothing over the top, but nothing bad. They have bottomless breadsticks and the food is exactly as I remember it! They clean tables up quickly when people leave and it's easy to find a seat, use the drive-thru or take it to go if you prefer. Overall: A Glad to have this chain back and we have definitely added it to our rotation of places to eat close to home.
My bf has fond memories of Fazoli's. I don't remember them much; we went to one in Georgia a few years ago and he was so excited to have one close to home. We waited until some of the hype died down and it wasn't too busy on a weekday for late lunch time. We placed our order on the screen, grabbed a number, and found a spot to sit. Staff here were all really nice and accommodating. He ordered the baked spaghetti and meatballs and I ordered the loaded fettuccine Alfredo which has Alfredo sauce, chicken, broccoli, mushrooms, and bacon. If dining in, you can get as many breadsticks as your heart desires. The breadsticks are pretty tasty. They are soft with a good garlicky salty butter on the top. My bf enjoyed his spaghetti and meatballs. The Alfredo dish was okay. A bit on the bland side and the chicken is similar to frozen meal chicken. I like that they offer freshly shredded Parmesan at the table. Overall, Fazoli's is good for what it is, Italian style fast food. The prices are bit high for the quality, but that's something affecting every place so it's understandable. It's an average spot where you can enjoy a quick meal and for me, even average pasta is good because pasta is life haha. As long as you're not expecting high quality Italian, Fazoli's fits the bill for a convenient meal outside of the box of typical fast food.
I love Fazolis partly due to the nostalgia of going all the time as a kid, which is why I was very excited that there would be one in East Orlando again. The food here is not fancy or mind-blowingly delicious, but it is still good and what I love about it is the variety you can get on a budget. There aren't many places where you can get spaghetti, fettuccine, lasagna AND bread sticks for under $15. What really stood out to me, though, here at this location, was their service. After ordering at the counter, your food is brought to your table where they offer freshly grated cheese. They also come by bus periodically to bus the tables and offer extra breadsticks. That kind of service makes you forget you're at a fast-food restaurant and I really commend them for that. I would definitely put aside the fast food stigma and try them out if you want a cheap meal. Also, I don't know how long it has been gone, but the Italian cream cake is back and it's very good. I would highly suggest trying it out. read more

Had a fantastic experience here! Food was delicious. The breadsticks specifically made me want to write a review because they were so fresh and savory even at 9:30 at night. The staff is always super nice and helpful, and our server Maryna was fantastic. Very nice atmosphere inside too, I always like to eat inside read more

Finally!! I've been waiting for one of these to come back around. I used to go when I was a kid, and it's nice to know that the atmosphere hasn't changed. I got what I used to get all the time, it's like a deluxe sampler. And honestly, it doesn't taste as great as I remember it, but fairly similar. It's been years since Fazoli's was in Central Florida, so of course it's not going to take exactly how I remember it. The price points are still more or less what it used to be. But honestly this is the best fast food Italian restaurant I've ever been to. I've been to others and other states during its absence, and this tastes about the same in regards to the overall franchise. I've yet to be able to go inside to eat, but I know the warm buttery breadsticks are waiting for me lol read more

In the early 2000s, the Fazoli's over by UCF was my go-to for cheap eats after long nights of...studying. They were a treat for me over my college apartment ramen dishes and cafeteria meals. The breadsticks were awesome, and everything tasted great to a UCF student who was...studying. After I graduated and moved away from UCF, Fazoli's disappeared. I can't tell you why because I don't know. They seemed like they were always busy. Anyway, flash forward to 2023, and Fazoli's has returned to Orlando in a location previously occupied by a Boston Market on Colonial/Bennett. Is this the same Fazoli's I remember from my college days or a different beast? Honestly, I can't tell because it's been almost 20 years, so this review is based on the new Fazoli's instead of a comparison between the old and the new. Ever since the new location opened, this place has been packed, inside and outside drive-thru. I actively avoided the opening because of the packed crowds (seriously, for fast Italian food? But I get it, nostalgia). I happened to drive by this evening and noticed the drive-thru wasn't as long as it was in the preceding days, so I checked out the 2023 version of Fazoli's. I can't tell you much about the interior because, from what I could tell from my car, all of the tables were occupied and I would've taken my order to-go anyway. The drive-thru was pretty slow, but I'm not knocking any stars off of that because that's to be expected for any new restaurant. The employees were friendly and even though there was a bit of wait for the drive-thru, that's to be expected. How does Fazoli's hold up in 2023? They're...ok. This isn't a review condemning them. They're good, but they're not great. I ordered the baked meatballs and spaghetti dish, and it was pretty good. The marinara sauce was a little too bitter for my taste, and the pasta was thinner and more akin to angel-hair than common spaghetti. The breadsticks are still good and beat the heck out of places like Olive Garden. So, why am I giving this a 3 star review? Yelp's definition of a 3-star review is "Ok" and that is exactly what Fazoli's is. It's fine. It's better than some local Italian restaurants but is still way below Orlando's finest Italian restaurants. If you're looking for Italian food after a long day of work, Fazoli's is a pretty good option if you're open to the wait times. The food is ok, but you can find better Italian at Italian restaurants if you call in a "to-go" order and pick it yourself. My suggestion is to wait a little longer for the crowds to die down a bit more to try the restaurant yourself. It's pretty good, not great, not bad. But seriously, don't forget to try the breadsticks. read more

I keep passing this Fazoli's and decided to give them a try since I haven't had it in years. The food was your typical fast food italian (i.e. Noodles and Co), except that when you dine in they offer unlimited breadsticks. The food itself was good, and the breadsticks were delicious and on par with Olive Gardens ones. The service was super quick, and everyone in there was really friendly. The interior looks like your normal fast food dining room, and doesn't have much of a variety. But that's typical of all quick serve restaurants. All in all, I would definitely recommend Fazoli's for anyone looking for good Italian food on a budget! read more

Fazoli's! I'm so happy you are back! I have very fond memories as a child of driving almost an hour to the dentist which was terrible but after the dentist we'd always go to Fazoli's for lunch! The unlimited breadsticks are such a happy memory of what otherwise was not a pleasant visit to the dentist. I checked out their newest location yesterday and it was just as I had remembered. I HAD to get the fettuccine Alfredo because thats pretty much what i always got a as a child. My BF got a salad that looked really yummy, it had breadstick croutons, pepperonis and breaded chicken on it. We also got breadsticks which were just lovely! We did the drive-thru but next time we'll definitely dine-in so I can have the full childhood experience with the basket of breadsticks coming around. I can just see my mom putting breadsticks in her purse now like she did 25 years ago. Fazoli's, Orlando welcomes you with open arms! read more

(9/7/2023) I had moved out of the state when Fazoli's was in its heyday in Florida, so I do not have any nostalgia attached. This was my first time and at the urging of my "kids" (younger coworkers). This was the 2nd time they'd been there and the place had only been open 2 days. The Original Italian sub had a surprising heat from the giardiniera vegetables given this is fast food. The Pepperoni Pizza Breadsticks were missing the marinara in the order and that sauce was sorely missed, it would have vastly improved the breadsticks. I'd be willing to give it a dine-in try, but I'm not really lining up like others. read more

The last time I was at Fazoli's was over 15 years ago so it is so nice that they are back in town now! I got their Chicken Parm! It was about $10-$11 and I also had a ton of breadsticks! The food was delicious, affordable, and our server Johndavid was very attentive to us! They also gave us a free small pasta for the next time we come! read more
When I was a teenager I use to love eating at Fazoli's so I was heartbroken when they all closed. When I heard they opened a new location on East Colonial I had to check it out. It use to be the old Boston Market so they have plenty of seating. My mother and I went for lunch, we ordered 2 of the lunch specials. I ordered the Alfredo with Cheese Ravioli while she ordered Spaghetti with Meat Sauce and Alfredo. The cashier was really nice and was happy to answer all our questions. The Alfredo was a little bland and would have preferred the sauce to be a little thicker. The meat sauce and spaghetti were pretty good. The ravioli was on the al dente side and was also bland. The breadsticks were the best part of the whole meal and were so good I could've ate a whole basket of them. For $6.99 you get a good amount of food and a drink. Fazolis is perfect when you're in an Italian mood and you need to get your meal quickly. read more

Dine-in is the way to go. Found out about the unlimited breadsticks with dine-in when I was browsing the menu. This was my first visit, and the cashier recommended the chicken parmigiano. The food was hot and delicious, pairing well with the warm, garlicky breadsticks. The vibe is like a common fast food restaurant. This is the place to go if you want quick service Italian food read more

Food was delicious! I'm so glad to have a Fazoli's back in the area. I had the lasagna, and my husband had the pizza pasta bake and we both enjoyed it. We went to eat inside, but the line was long so we did the drive thru and didn't wait very long. All the workers were very nice and they did a great job keeping everything moving along. The breadsticks were definitely a little overdone, but we still enjoyed everything! read more
