My boyfriend is a pizza snob and was obsessed; like we may go get more today if I let him haha. But the crust was thin and then fluffy at the end, perfect amount of crunch. Perfect amount of cheese and the ingredients were stellar, very flavorful. I love the little pepperonis too. Overall, everything you'd want in a pizza

The staff is very friendly and welcoming. The pizza is so good! I really like their Bianca, it's so well seasoned and full of flavor. I've tried most others and never had a bad slice. They make huge side salads so you can get away with getting a small salad for lunch. If you're not that hungry. this location has plenty of booths and tables, but is still cozy. They share lots of family photos on the wall and have the kind of fun old school family theme in everything. The one and only downside of this place is they don't have Coca-Cola on the fountain.

I've been coming to Dalli's since I was a kid, and it's always been such a solid go-to pizza spot…read more There's something about it that just feels nostalgic, but it also genuinely holds up every time. Their prices are super affordable, especially for a non-chain pizza place, and the quality is consistently great. I recently did a pickup order for lunch, and it couldn't have been smoother. They gave me a pickup time, and my pizza was literally coming out of the oven right as I walked in - perfect timing. One of my favorite things they do is their thin shaved sausage, so good and not something you see everywhere. I also love that you can grab pizza by the slice, which makes it really convenient if you're just stopping in quickly. They also have solid weekday lunch specials if you're looking for a good deal. It's not a huge place, but there's a small area to sit inside if you want to dine in. The staff is always friendly and welcoming, which just adds to the overall experience. Definitely one of those local spots that's been doing it right for years. I'll keep coming back

When I walk in there is an option for take out or sit down. So if you want to take out, you can just order at the counter and you can see all the pizza already made. We chose to sit in. The server is friendly and attentive! I have small garlic knots and garlic wings. Then my hubby got the pasta trio. The food came fairly fast. The garlic knots are amazing and it came with six! So flavorful and yummy! The wings are sitting in the place of oil a bit and it does not have much flavor other than the garlic. I put some salt on and it tasted so much better right away. The pasta trio came with soup or salad, my hubby got the garden salad. The salad is fine and the pasta is ok. Very cheesy for sure. Overall it is a nice restaurant in the neighborhood.

Full disclosure we are from Boston (the other place Italians made their home lol). At first, my sister questioned it because it's just a spot in a plaza, but I explained to her in Florida that's quite normal. But I really enjoy is that they have darken the windows so you can't see in but you are able to see out so you're not sitting in the normal fishbowl of a plaza restaurant. Small place obviously but they have both booths and tables. My sister ordered a chicken masala and a side Caesar salad. I ordered the Bronx chicken cutlet with a side Caesar and they were able to add anchovies, which just made it all that much better. The masala was thick, tons of mushrooms. The chicken was tender. You only needed a fork to break it apart, she got it over linguine and it was perfectly cooked. My dinner were too fresh chicken cutlets paper, thin freshly made topped with cherry peppers and burrata. Served with cheese ravioli's in a vodka sauce. Again, Caesar salad refreshing made freshly tossed, the food was timed nicely between the salads being delivered in our meals. My sister was so happy. She ordered a personal pan pizza to take home with her. We had the pleasure of Caitlin being our server and she was attentive and friendly and helped make it a great night.

Mister 01 Extraordinary Pizza is extraordinary for a reason. Seriously, this place cleared my…read moreexpectations. I had heard about them for about two years prior to actually going. It was one of those places, where it's on my list but I think I just never ended up going. That is until recently to the Lake Mary location. Mister 01 has many, many locations all over Florida. So the history is that a chef who was raised in Southern Italy came to Florida and set up his first shop in Miami. It was so popular that they've expanded to Georgia, North Carolina, and even Texas. Their claim to fame is they have some specialized pizzas where the crust is folded and the whole pie kind of resembles a star. They even have a special pizza that has coffee on it, not that it's the one I got but I think it's very unique. We got there on a Friday night and it was very busy. It was about a 20-30 minute wait. Conveniently, they have a trail right behind the building, so we walked a part of it while waiting and it was a nice walk at sunset. It's really fun to be seated and enjoy as you can see the cooking and baking process while getting a slightly high end dining experience. Not that it was that expensive, but it felt slightly more elevated than a Domino's. I got the Star Luca. The Star Luca is a star shaped pizza with ricotta, mozzarella, tomato sauce, spicy salami Calabrese, and basil. The 20 inch costs $20.99. My rating for this one is a 9.5/10. I mean it was insanely delicious. They bring a spicy olive oil to the table, which I loved and used. The crust is so cool that it's filled with ricotta. So it feels like you got the best parts of a calzone and a pizza into one, if I am being honest. I also got a flute of Prosecco Clara C', which was a sparkling white wine with notes of apple. It was good, although a bit pricey at $14.95 a glass. For dessert, we tried the Nutella banana calzone, which was recommended by our waiter. This was an 8/10. It was really good and sweet. I liked that they use their own fermented dough, which is another cool note. My overall rating of this place is a 9/10. I mean the food is really really good. There is a clear reason for how busy it is. It's a step up from your casual pizza joint, but I enjoyed it.

We put our name down anyways, and it was actually a very quick wait. We had a table about 10 minutes later. Our server was great. He was busy, but took time to pass by our table to let us know he'd be right over. When we were seated, there was already water on the table, which was appreciated. I ordered the Marco and my friend ordered the star Beckham. Both were delicious, light and the crust was very thin and crunchy. For dessert, we ordered the Nutella banana calzone and it was gooey, warm and the perfect sweet treat. Despite how busy it was, we were only there for about an hour. The food and service were both excellent. This is some of my favorite pizza in Orlando and I'll be back soon!
