Also there is a day they actually prepare the gluten-free food when there's nothing else in the kitchen and it makes me feel so safe about eating there. I've eaten there twice and had four different entrees and four different desserts and I never got sick! I also want to mention that my waiter and the general manager are so nice! They were so helpful and helping me choose something great to eat as well as being taken care of! Let me tell you what I got was over the top delicious! Like I wanted to lick my bowl it was so good! This is a can't miss type of restaurant! I love it so much and it's my favorite little spot in orlando! I also got a take out chicken parmesan and it was fabulous as well and it fed me 3 times!!!

Our server attended us very timely, introduced himself and quickly advised it was "Thirsty Thursday" when all wine bottles are 50% off...well that kicked it up a notch! I'm in. Ordered a bottle and some apps - the mozzarella frits were great. As a main entree the chicken parm was good. The caesar salad ...eh. Overall, I absolutely loved the service. One of our plates had to go back and the manager paid a visit to apologize for the delay.

Exceptional sandwiches -- feels like a bite of Italy in Ocoee…read more Ispirazione Sandwich Shop is an absolute standout. We ordered the UFO sandwich, the veggie sandwich, and finished with a cannoli--and every single item delivered. The sandwiches were phenomenal. The bread is made to order and it shows: thin, chewy, and perfectly structured for a real sandwich (not soggy, not overbearing). Unique round discs that suited the food perfectly. The UFO sandwich was deeply satisfying - delicious meats, and I added green olive crema and swapped out provolone for stracciatella. The veggie sandwich wasn't an afterthought at all--fresh, flavorful, and genuinely filling. Every ingredient tasted delicious and fresh. The cannoli was spot-on: perfect flavor, just the right level of sweetness, and clearly made with quality ingredients. Not overly sugary, not heavy--just right. The location is also a big plus. It's in a newly built shopping center with really nice pond-side seating, which would be a great place to sit, relax, and actually enjoy the meal. On top of all that, the owners were incredibly kind and welcoming, and the prices are very fair for the quality you're getting. This is the kind of place you root for. If you love real sandwiches, fresh ingredients, and food made with pride, don't miss it. We'll absolutely be back.

It was a quick easy stop while I was on my way home from the Winter Garden area this weekend. They specialize in fresh baked Tigelle sandwiches which is an Italian flatbread. As someone who is watching my carb intake, I really like this thin, light bread. So far, I've tried the Bella Vita and the Picante (spicy) sandwiches. Both are amazing! They use super fresh Italian ingredients like soppressata, mozzarella, mortadella, prosciutto di parma, burrata, and pesto. The to-go packaging for their sandwiches is also on point. They have the cutest little yellow boxes and it's like unboxing a present. One of my absolute favorite things on the menu is their pistachio tiramisu dessert. It's probably one of the best desserts I've ever! I would drive here just for this alone. A MUST! The staff are all super friendly and happy to offer suggestions. Gabriel was so kind and I learned that he's actually from Italy. The cafe itself is small and cozy with some additional outdoor seating. You have to park on the backside of the building and walk around to the storefront. Highly recommended for great lunch spot or early dinner!

We chose to sit at the bar area and we're greeted promptly by the bartender. Brought for the menu as well as a few new items that are going to be on the new menu. This location has new ownership and is in the process of being converted to a German restaurant My husband got the chicken Parmesan and said it was delicious. He did say that the sauce does have a little kick to it but he enjoyed it. He also said the chicken was cooked really well. I opted for the carne flatbread. Which had Italian sausage, pepperoni, meatball on it. It was really good and the flatbread was nice and light and not heavy. Overall, we did enjoy ourselves and enjoyed our meal. Definitely is a little bit more expensive than locations nearby as our meal with three adult beverages ran about $95.

We had to keep flagging down our server to get refills. The food came out lukewarm. I did enjoy the flavor of my smoked salmon frittata, especially with the addition of the avocado on top. I like that I was able to substitute the potatoes for fruit for no upcharge. I will say that the menu stated my frittata had cheese in it, but I could not taste any kind of cheese. I wish there was a bit more stuff in general inside. It was a bit overcooked as well. I enjoyed the mimosas. For only $17 you could get unlimited, which was definitely worth it. I also tasted the Kir Royales and found them to be tasty but a bit too sweet for me to keep ordering. I do like that there is the option of four different drinks if you go the unlimited route.

The food is just so delicious, I have loved everything I've ever tried here. I always start with a side Caesar salad. I love their homemade Caesar dressing. Their homemade croutons are addictive. I sometimes ask for extra just because I love crunching into them. Tonight I got the gnocchi alla vodka and added meatballs. Those meatballs are so big, they are a meal in themselves. The vodka sauce is definitely one of my favorites around. So creamy and has a lot of flavor. The gnocchi were tender and I couldn't stop popping them in my mouth. We enjoyed a glass of wine with dinner, which helps complete the Italian atmosphere. Surrounded by good friends, delicious wine and great tasting food, what more could you want?!

Everyone enjoyed their food and the service was good. I ordered a side house Salad with a side of wild salmon. The total was $18 which isn't bad, especially for the amount of food it came with. The salmon was not heavily seasoned, which I liked. I wish it came with lemon on the side but we had plenty at the table for water so it worked out fine. My salad was perfectly crisp as well. Serving sizes are generous and prices are reasonable.

The host shared with me that the servers were pretty busy, but that one would be with me shortly. This was all fine as I was waiting for the rest of my party to arrive everybody got there roughly around 650 at 7:15. We still had never seen a server come to our table. So I got up and spoke to the host and let him know that we've been there for well over 30 minutes and no one had to come to the table to offer to get a drink orders or anything. The host just said sorry and said he would get somebody right away. I saw him speak to at least two servers before finally somebody came over to our table. Not sure what the miscommunication was, but there certainly was some miscommunication. The server apologize for the miscommunication and offered to get us drinks, but at that point since we've been waiting for so long, we were just ready to put our order in. We are a party of four and all of us ordered a pasta dish of some sort with the exception of one person who ordered the fillet. I got the gnocchi, Bolognese and enjoyed the dish. I do find the sauce to be a little sweet for my liking. I also ordered the lasagna to go for my husband and while it traveled well when he got home, he also had the same comment about the sauce being a little too sweet. Again, the food didn't taste bad our pallets just picked up the sweetness. Overall, the food was okay. It was really more so the service and what appeared to be just disorganization in the dining room.

I started with the Sunshine State cocktail. The gin cocktail was a little more lime forward than I prefer, but I'm still a fan! To follow it, I tried the Negroni Bianco. It was on the sweeter side and had a lot of floral flavor. The Bruschette Caprese has so much flavor, I couldn't get place if the tomatoes were marinated, but I loved it! For dinner I couldn't resist the house special, mustard spaghettini. It was creamy, and mustard marinated noodles the perfect balance. As you'd expect with the setting and price point, the service was professional and attentive.
