Top Best Italian Restaurants in Orlando

"Located on the trendy Park Ave, Prato is a popular Italian eatery named after Tuscany’s second-largest city and the hub of the Slow Food movement. Here you’ll find stylized interpretations of classic dishes using local ingredients. With a centerpiece wood-burning oven used for making pizzas, freshly made pasta, and a made-from-scratch menu that changes regularly, Prato is where to go to get your Italian fix."

"Prato’s style of cooking can be defined as classic Italian with an emphasis on local ingredients. This, coupled with the restaurant’s sleek wood-and-brick decor, makes for a modern dining experience with a cool, rustic vibe. A signature special beloved by locals is the Widowmaker pizza, which is topped with caciocavallo cheese, romesco, fennel sausage and an egg in the center."

"Prato Winter Park is another great Italian spot conveniently located right on Park Ave. Here you can enjoy an extensive menu of Italian classics."

"Christini's may well be the city's most upscale venues for Italian cuisine – and the prices are certainly reflective thereof – but for your money this is an outstanding venue for wooing clients or a date (though the complementary roses for the ladies and the roving accordion player taking requests may make more sense for the latter). From the impressive shank of the osso bucco to the mushroom-laden scallopini, Christini's meat offerings are reliable crowd pleasers ... not that the lobster fra diavolo is likely to disappoint."

"Nick's Family Diner has been slinging hearty breakfasts and lunches to a devoted legion of customers for decades with an impressive menu of much-loved favorites and sumptuous Greek and Italian specialties. Offering daily specials such as stuffed meatloaf, chicken and waffles, and colossal specialty burgers, Nick's Family Diner also serves an all-day breakfast of fluffy three-egg omelets with various fillings, scrambles and skillets, buttermilk biscuits and gravy, and stacks of pancakes. Other breakfast plates include eggs, bacon, and grits, breakfast muffin sandwiches, French toast with bacon, and Belgian waffles."

"With queues out the door, and a reputation as one of the best eateries in Orlando, there are plenty of reasons to visit this unique cafe full of character. Nick’s Family Diner serves up simple, home cooked fair that whilst not experimental or edgy, is the basis for beautifully made, instantly delicious breakfast classics. Chose from eggs, bacon, omelettes and specials all served with green tomatoes and home fries for a filling, fabulous, all-American breakfast experience in Orlando."

"Family-owned and operated, this quaint diner will make you such a big breakfast, you’ll have trouble getting out the door!. In what used to be an old Pizza Hut, Nick and his family built their legacy. The diner is beloved by locals, and with good reason!"

"At La Luce, the crisp salads, thin-crust pizzas and hearty, old world recipes (the tender-delicious rabbit cacciatore, hunter-style, over sumptuous ricotta gnocchi comes to mind) are designed to satisfy. And the setting, the swanky Hilton Orlando Bonnet Creek, may be minutes from Disney World but La Luce's relaxing atmosphere is light years from the frenetic pace of the parks, ideal for a nice family dinner or romantic evening for two. Inspired by famed Napa Valley chef and restaurateur Donna Scala, La Luce fuses traditional Italian cuisine with the modern and creative flair of northern California to create special cuisine with ingredients that are often locally sourced."

"La Luce is the signature fine-dining restaurant in Hilton Orlando Bonnet Creek, which takes its inspiration from the famous Napa Valley restaurateur and chef, Donna Scala. This contemporary Italian rustic kitchen offers dinner nightly, which includes homemade pasta, thin-crust pizzas, and Italian cuisines based on classic family recipes that have been handed down from generation to generation. The meals are best paired with a vintage from their Trattoria-style wine program or a Mediterranean-inspired cocktails."

"La Luce serves modern Italian cuisine inspired by Napa Valley famed chef Donna Scala. Dishes are inspired by traditional family recipes that have been handed down for generations. Enjoy freshly handmade pastas, pizzas, and seafood in a contemporary setting overlooking the sprawling lazy river pool."

"Located conveniently on I-Drive in Orlando’s Tourist District next to the Orlando Eye, Vincenzo Cucina Italiana is a family-owned and operated Italian restaurant that offers an authentic Italian dining experience. Combining a warm family-orientated ambiance and an elegant fine dining vibe, Vincenzo Cucina Italiana is perfect for romantic dinners for two or fun-filled family gatherings with a menu of dishes for every occasion. In addition to a diverse and delectable menu of farm-to-table fare, which features Italian appetizers, entrees, and desserts, an extensive list of fine wines is on offer to pair with the cuisine, and there is even live music to enjoy."

"Vincenzo Cucina Italiana is a hybrid of sorts, a superb restaurant that melds family-run warmth with a fine-dining vibe, making it a wonderful place for a date night, a client dinner, a post-work glass of Chianti or a special occasion dinner. You know, like Nana's birthday. It's convenient for both vacationers and business travelers, but Vincenzo's tourist-friendly I-Drive location does nothing to keep the locals from returning for authentic cuisine and service that often goes above and beyond."
