    Cheese Bread
    Felipe P.

    Pizza Odyssey Lakeland 811 E Palmetto St, Lakeland, FL 33801 @pizzaodyssey.lkld This spot (formerly known as Pizza Daddy's) inside the Lake Morton Deli offers a wide array of custom pie pizzas as well as wings + subs. This is a hidden gem that not many know of. Their Pizzas are great tasting and well cooked. I truly enjoyed their Pizzas. They work diligently in doing thier Pizzas good and tasty. Give them a try.

    Better everytime we go. The only thing they need is more seating. Services is always great, food is even greater.

    I went into the store a few times but was reluctant to try the pizza mostly due to it being located inside of a deli but I thought to give it a try yesterday and what a surprise, The one I tried was the "Not your mama's" pizza with pepperoni, mozzarella , spinach and garlic ricotta. The quality of the sauce and other ingredients were outstanding and the crust was crispy with good amount of char, something was missing from several pizza's I have tried in a few pizzerias in the Lakeland winter haven area! It looked so good that I ate the pie before remembering to take a photo. I went back today for more, it was soo good, and didn't forget the pic. Take it from a recently relocated pizza aficionado from Brooklyn that this is primo pizza! Give it a try you won't be disappointed

    Ok so first off pizza odyssey is not a restaurant, by our surprise when we got here it is a convenient store. We debated go in don't go in! I said let's give it a try!!! The gentleman behind the pizza counter was really nice. We ordered the cheesy bread and the OG Pizza and grandpas farm. I did add ricotta to my OG pizza . I am glad we went in that pizza was great. The crust was crispy the flavors were on point. Don't let the outside atmosphere scare you go in and try it !!!!!

    We've been looking for a chance to try this since it opened and our only disappointment was that we didn't go sooner. Absolutely delicious pizza! The cheesy bread is also great and this pizza place actually puts enough sauce for the whole thing. What a concept! The one tricky thing on first visit is that the restaurant is located in the back corner of the Lake Morton Market and Deli. It took us a minute to find it when we first went. And so it's basically to-go only.

    I went early in their opening. The food was good, but took a long time to make. Their reasoning was "call-ins" bumped us standing in front of them. Several work guys who walked in, walked out due to the wait. Didn't see a lot of "healthful" practices behind the counter (no handwashing after leaving behind the counter area, gloves to touch product, wipe downs after one order). It was crowded inside so I went outside to a bistro table to wait. They said they'd get me, but did not, so had to weedle back in. They have since changed their name to Pizza Odyssey, someone said due to "proprietary issues" with the first name. I would try again because they get lots of good reviews, and have had time to improve, but not jumping to get there, due to the lack of ambiance, access.

    Absolutely delicious pizza! Piping hot and fresh. Perfect crust, with just the right amount of toppings.

    Not Your Mama's

    Definitely go here! We're pizza snobs from New England. We love this place. These guys are awesome and the pizza is even better. EASILY the best pizza we've eaten in the area, by far! Awesome pizza and awesome service.

    Received the wrong pizza and all was offered was a free topping. Pizza was okay just very thin and not a lot of sauce.

    If you're vegetarian or vegan, this place is a dream. Everything is insanely fresh, the portions…read moreare huge, and the customer service is genuinely wonderful. The whole atmosphere is exactly what you want -- clean, positive, chill, with both indoor and outdoor seating. The ordering experience is so easy. There's a giant menu when you walk in, and then big touchscreen LCD menus that honestly feel like the food court screens at IKEA. Every restaurant should switch to this -- save paper, save plastic, and make life easier for everyone. I built my own bowl and grabbed the kale + Fuji apple smoothie. It's not a thick smoothie -- more like something between a juice and an icy -- but still really refreshing and really good. The bowls come in to-go boxes automatically, so you just ask for a lid if you need one. Super convenient. I highly recommend this spot. I don't eat out much, but I'd definitely go back. They even have an app now with $5 off your first order, which I'll definitely be using because the food was that delicious. As someone who has been vegetarian my whole life and fully vegan since early 2025, I can honestly say this place hit every single mark. Not one bad thing to say. It's that good.

    If you are looking for healthy on the go, SoFresh has you covered!…read more It's such a task to find healthy and fresh food on the go. I'm so glad to have found this place. There's such a wide variety of healthy food. Here you will find kale, romaine, zucchini noodles, quinoa, brown rice, chickpeas, black beans cucumber, onions, tomatoes, carrots, nuts/seeds, raisins, avocados, eggs, goat cheese, lean cuts of beef, chicken, salmon and so much more. Since everything is cooked to order, you can customize, add, subtract and really create your own meal. There's a little something for everyone, from salad, wraps, bowls, juices, and even food for kids. I enjoy the fact that I can buy a few bowls to help with meal prepping for the week. It saves me time in the kitchen. Catering is also available so you can share healthy eating with others or utilize it to save money when you are trying to feed your family for a little less. The restaurant is a small but is accommodating with an indoor sitting area and also has a few tables and chairs for outdoor dining as well. Pick up is a breeze you prepay or use Uber Eats/Door Dash simply grab and go from the grab and go area. If you decide to order in the restaurant, you can either use the touch screen or place your order with staff at the register. I just wish there were more locations in Orlando and Kissimmee.

    Giving 2 stars because the service was good…read more.. It's been probably 10 years since I last went to Gators, which wasn't this location but I remember it being pretty good. I can't say the same for the food experience today. The mozzarella sticks tasted very plain and the marinara tasted like it was from one of those microwave frozen marinaras. It was just disgusting. I ordered the wings which the flavor was nice, but was semi-disappointed because I got 6 drums and 2 flats. Flats are better, but I just would assume I'd get at least 4 and 4. The fries were okay, not really very hot though. My wife got the chicken Philly with onion petals. She said the chicken Philly was okay and would probably get it again, but the onion petals were terrible. She said while they had a nice seasoning on the outside, more than half of them were still raw and crunchy (not from the batter), and luke warm to cold. The hostess was very friendly and loved our baby. The server, Benji, was great. He checked on us and refilled us without asking. He was friendly, but he'd make more at a place with higher quality food.

    Started off with the fried pickles and ranch--very addictive and a great way to begin the meal…read more I had the BLT sandwich. Overall, it was good, but I wasn't a fan of the gator sauce. I switched to mayonnaise, which made it much better for me. The fried pickles on the sandwich were a little unusual, but not bad. I had tater tots on the side, and they were solid. My wife ordered the mini burgers with fries--both were pretty good. For dessert, we tried the apple tart (dumpling) with vanilla ice cream and caramel. It was a nice finish to the meal and enjoyable overall. Brianna was our waitress and did an excellent job. She checked on us regularly and provided very good service throughout.

    I have never been a Panera fan, but the wife is. I reluctantly said yes, because we had a gift card…read morethat needed using. The woman taking our order was semi-abrasive in the beginning, but chilled out somewhat by the end of placing our order. I ordered the Ciabatta Cheesesteak sandwich and she ordered the Frontega Chicken sandwich. I wasn't impressed, as over the years past, with my sandwich. There was not enough meat and the flavors just did not provide me with a, "yum, that's pretty good, I think we will have to come back one day" feeling. The wife's sandwich was "too peppery" for her so we swapped halves. Meh, I wasn't impressed with that sandwich either. The wife ordered just water. The "free" water, from the soda dispenser, was terrible and undrinkable, with a foul odor and heavy (nasty) hard metallic taste. We realize the water in Florida is "hard" and the reason we obtained a purifier for our home, but this needs to be rectified in a restaurant. My ice tea tasted fine. I'm giving this place a 2 star (could've been better) rating, while the wife would probably give them a 4 star (good) rating even with the nasty tap water. My Yelp account, thus my rating. The fresh breads they sell looked good, though I was reluctant to buy any.
