The pizzaiolos at Papa Lozzi have clearly mastered the art of pizza-making, evident in the light, crispy crust of the Quattro Formaggi and classic Pepperoni pies.

This place is a little hidden piece of deliciousness. The food was absolutely amazing!! And the sweet personality of our server, young Italian girl (forgot her name) made it even more of a pleasure. A must check out!! I will be back!!

So great!!! Fast service. So fast we held back our dinner order so we could take our time enjoying our app. Everything was fresh, no sandbagging, and it was packed with flavor! We never felt rushed or ignored. An incredibly rare chance to enjoy a meal at our pace without having to do the dishes afterward.

Unforgettable Italian Flavors at Papa Lozzi Italia If I could give more than 5 stars to Papa Lozzi Italia, I would! This spot has quickly become one of my favorite Italian restaurants in Orlando. The passion for quality and authenticity is evident in every bite, and it’s clear they take immense pride in making everything from scratch. From the moment we sat down, the warm, attentive service set the tone for an exceptional meal. We started with fresh bread, served hot from the oven, which was a delightful beginning. The bruschetta was next—crisp, flavorful, and bursting with the freshness of tomatoes and basil. We then indulged in the Carbonara and Vodka Pasta, each expertly crafted and packed with rich, satisfying flavors. The creamy sauces and perfectly cooked pasta made both dishes unforgettable. For pizza, we tried the Quattro Formaggi and the classic Pepperoni. The crust was light yet crispy, with that perfect golden char, and the toppings were so fresh that each bite was like a journey through Italy. Papa Lozzi has truly mastered the art of pizza. To finish, we couldn’t resist the desserts. The Tiramisu was everything you’d want: creamy, balanced, and with just the right amount of espresso. The Chocolate Souffle was the showstopper, baked to order and worth every extra minute. The warm, molten center was a chocolate lover’s dream! We visited on a Sunday afternoon, and the restaurant was pleasantly calm, allowing us to enjoy an intimate and relaxed experience. The entire meal felt like a warm embrace from Italy, and I can’t wait to return. Highly recommend Papa Lozzi Italia for anyone craving authentic Italian flavors in Orlando.

Absolutely amazing experience! The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, the service was top-notch, and the food—wow. From the fresh, flavorful bruschetta to the perfectly cooked handmade pasta and rich sauces, everything was authentic and delicious. The tiramisu was the perfect sweet ending. Easily one of the best Italian meals I’ve ever had. Highly recommended! My server Kyle was top tier, great guy!

FOUND THE PERFECT DISH! I recently had the pleasure of tasting the best Chicken Marsala I've ever experienced, and it was nothing short of extraordinary. From the first bite, it was clear that this dish was crafted with attention to detail and a deep understanding of flavor balance. The chicken was perfectly cooked—juicy and tender with a golden-brown sear that locked in all the natural juices. What set this Chicken Marsala apart, though, was the sauce. Rich, velvety, and bursting with the robust flavor of Marsala wine, it had just the right amount of sweetness to complement the savory notes of the chicken. The sauce was studded with sauteed mushrooms that were perfectly caramelized, adding an earthy depth to the dish. The seasoning was spot-on, with a harmonious blend of herbs that elevated the dish without overwhelming the palate. What truly made this Chicken Marsala stand out was its balance—each element, from the tender chicken to the luxurious sauce, was in perfect harmony. It was a dish that left me craving more, and it's one I won't soon forget. If you’re a fan of Chicken Marsala, this is the pinnacle of what the dish can be.

Stopped by here with some friends on our trip, one of the best Italian food I’ve ever tasted.. finger licking! The owner was such an amazing person- loved speaking to him. We got the calamari as an appetizer.. so fresh!! I got the carbonara and it was so delicious. I got the tiramisu and my boyfriend got the creme brulee, we are it so fast I didn’t get a chance to take a picture. Definitely coming back!

Authentic Italian Delight in Orlando! We had a fantastic dining experience at Papa Lozzi Italia. The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming, perfect for a family dinner. We tried the lasagna alla Bolognese and the spaghetti alla carbonara, both dishes were flavorful and cooked to perfection. The homemade pasta and sauces truly stood out. The staff was attentive and friendly, making us feel right at home. If you’re craving authentic Italian cuisine in Orlando, this is the place to go!
