The ambiance is a very attractive comfortable rustic. The food is spectacular! The birthday girl had lasagna after a gazillion wonderful appetizers! And tiramisu for dessert! A happier person you have never met! The table had pasta dishes, pizza, both colors of sangria and a variety of desserts. All to our delight. Only 2 of the 8 of us were from Deland but everyone agreed that we're returning to Urban Brick for our next celebration in May! My advice: Go often. Taste every item on the menu. Take your friends & relations. Hire a personal trainer & move to Deland! Urban Brick is worth it!

The Diavola had a nice kick and felt a little adventurous in a good way. The Pepperoni was solid and reliable, exactly what you expect. Now the calzone... not for me. I was expecting a classic cheese-forward situation, but this was more of a chaotic mash-up of ingredients that didn't quite come together. Felt like a pizza identity crisis folded in half. The crust is worth noting, it has that cornmeal-style texture. If you like a slightly gritty, rustic bite, you'll be into it. Overall, good flavor, just know what you're ordering. Next time, I'm sticking to the pizzas and leaving the calzone in the box.

Angelina's Pizzeria in DeLand (2687 S Woodland Blvd) is my go-to spot for authentic, homemade…read moreItalian food--I've been a regular for years, and it's consistently one of the best in Volusia County. This family-owned gem has been serving up delicious pizzas, pastas, and classic Italian dishes since 1998, always with the freshest natural ingredients and that warm, welcoming vibe that makes you feel right at home. They're especially known for their incredible homemade pizza--thin, crispy crust that's perfectly charred, tangy sauce, and generous toppings that make every slice addictive. But the real standout is their signature white pizza: ricotta and mozzarella with olive oil, fresh garlic, and herbs (no tomato sauce), creating this creamy, garlicky, herbaceous masterpiece that's unlike anything else around. It's my personal favorite on the pizza side--simple yet so flavorful, and reviewers rave about it being the best white pizza they've ever had. When I'm in the mood for something heartier, nothing beats their veal parmigiana--my absolute personal favorite entrée. Tender, grain-fed veal pounded thin, breaded just right, topped with rich marinara and melted cheese, served over perfectly cooked pasta. It's generous, comforting, and cooked to order every time--juicy, not greasy, with that classic Italian depth of flavor that hits all the right spots. The portions are huge, and it always leaves me satisfied without feeling heavy. Beyond that, their full menu shines: fresh pastas like clams over angel hair, chicken parm, eggplant parm, calzones, antipasto salads, garlic bread, and more--all made with wholesome, high-quality ingredients. The service is friendly and efficient (they handle crowds well even when busy), the dining room is cozy and family-friendly, and you can dine in, take out, or get delivery. If you're craving real homemade Italian in DeLand--whether it's pizza perfection, standout veal parm, or any of their other classics--Angelina's Pizzeria is the place. Call them at (386) 736-6999 or check bestpizzaindeland.com for the menu. Highly recommend--you'll keep coming back, just like I do! 1computeroutlet , 1websitenow

Reservations very strongly recommended, we didn't do that. Quoted a 45 minute wait but seated in about 20. Service was outstanding, even given the fact that the other members of my party are rank Philistines. Bartender, server, chef, runners, literally everyone was as impeccable as anyone has ever uttered the words "impeccable service." The food was very, very good. I had a salad with ahi that had exactly the right proportions of every ingredient. Everyone else loved their entrees, however which I won't get into since the menu changes frequently. Scratch kitchens like this make what they can with what they get, and this one is shining example of how good that can be. Dessert was one of the best slices of cheesecake I've ever had, and a gelato flight with some insane flavor profiles. It was, in a word, outstanding. 4 (extremely good) martinis, app, two entrees, two dessert, clocked at a reasonable $140 pre-tip. Go here and eat a succulent meal. Worth every cent.

This dining gem is not to be missed when you're in DeLand.

Had drinks right away. The young waiter was awesome with suggestions for an appetizer we chose Saganaki which was delicious especially if you love cheese. Along pita bread with their yummy dip that they give you prior to your meal. Nice warm pitas. The meal came out amazingly! I got the Gyro plate. That was very fresh with herbs, not dry. I choose this because I thought it would be less messier than having the actual Gyro, but it was totally worth the mess and I'm a big eater, I even had leftovers as my family members with me both had their meals (pictured) & thought they were large portions & very tasty. They enjoyed their meals & want to meet here again. If you're in the Deland area just enjoying a stroll or shopping on Woodland Boulevard & you're looking to have lunch or early dinner I would highly recommend this place. The staff is just amazing. Every staff member worked together & I watched as the manager walked around making sure everything was going smoothly and efficiently. I really enjoyed the atmosphere and how fresh the food was. This is definitely a place I'm going to return to in the near future. Please support this amazing Greek restaurant You will not be disappointed..

I've been a customer at Gaff's for years, but my recent pre-order experience has unfortunately…read moreended that relationship. I ordered 5 lbs of bone-in short ribs weeks in advance for Thanksgiving--at the staff's own suggestion when I inquired about availability. I provided my pickup date and time as requested, and received two confirmation calls leading up to the holiday. Despite all this preparation, the actual pickup was frustrating and disorganized. When I arrived at my scheduled time on the day before Thanksgiving, the shop was using the standard take-a-number system that completely ignored appointment times. The chaos was predictable--dozens of customers were there for pre-orders--but the system failed at multiple points. Numbers were called too quietly in a loud, crowded shop, and the LED display wasn't consistently updated. Staff gave customers mere seconds to respond before moving to the next number, causing people to be skipped repeatedly. I waited 40 minutes past my scheduled pickup time. When I finally reached the counter, my order wasn't prepared. After weeks of advance notice and multiple confirmations, they had a 3 lb package and a 12 lb package available--neither matching my 5 lb order. I settled for 6 lbs (half of the larger package), which required additional cutting and another 10-minute wait. What's most disappointing is that this was entirely preventable. The day before Thanksgiving is obviously their busiest day of the year, but it's also completely predictable. Pre-orders were advertised in-store for over a month. Simple measures--dedicated staff for pre-orders, a separate pickup area, orders prepared ahead of time--would have prevented this chaos. Instead, the staff seemed dismissive when confronted with their lack of preparation. I understand holiday rushes can overwhelm any business, but this wasn't a rush--it was a failure to plan for a workload they actively solicited and had weeks to prepare for. For a business that asks customers to plan ahead with pre-orders, I expected them to do the same. I won't be returning.

This is one of two locations of Gaff's Quality Meats and Specialty Foods. I believe the original…read moreone is in Port Orange, Florida and this location is a bit east in DeLand. Since I heard such great things about this butcher and since I would be driving by (well, actually I was driving down Interstate 4 and it was only about four miles off the highway), today would be the day I would check this place out. By the way, I have not been this way for quite some time and it certainly has changed and grown. Anyway, I pulled into the parking lot of Gaff's and found it to be an attractive stand alone building. Parking was good and the exterior was clean and inviting. Walking into the establishment, I found it to equally clean and the store was well situated and again, very inviting. The staff was nothing short of incredible and customer service was definitely a high priority with the management here. I was continuously greeted by the team and they were extremely attentive without being overly so. There is a deli counter, a seafood counter, the shelves were filled with great specialty items and the meat counter, where the emphasis of this business lies, was filled with some great looking beef, pork and chicken. I am a huge fan of sausage, so I gravitated towards there. The friendly young man behind the counter recommended the hot Italian sausage, so I got four of them (which was well over a pound). Since I like spicy food, I also opted for their bratwurst with serrano and cheese. I should have also gotten some of their lean ground sirloin, it looked great. I had the spicy bratwurst today. I had it with thinly sliced cooked onions and a quality mustard and while I have had better, it was definitely very good. I would definitely recommend here and will return here. Great service and very good quality food make this place a winning combination. Check it out. I am sure that you will be a fan of this establishment.
