Lived in Oviedo four years and tonight was are 1st time in we were welcomed in by friendly staff. sat promptly server was attentive drinks were great appetizers were great service was amazing food and deserts were all superb I'm so glad we finally tried it can't wait to return read more

My 2 medium pizzas and house salad took 45 minutes, even though I was quoted a 20-25 minute pick up time. When waiting upfront for my order, I could see into the kitchen, which looked to be in disarray, as well as heard the cooks laughing and cursing in the back. There didn't seem to be much focus by the staff on the guest experience. The food was quite underwhelming, and for $62, I would expect to at least like the food, even if the service was spotty. I hope the owners can get their team back on track because we have many options for pizza in Oviedo, and I would hate to see another local place fail. read more

Enjoyed their eggplant rolatini and their bread. Lots of families and some date night couples as well in a Friday night. Friendly service. Great ambiance read more

Excellent experience. I went with some of my friends, and we were immediately welcomed by the kind workers and enjoyed the good food. There is a noticeable welcoming atmosphere in Cafe Panuzzo's. We had server Tucker Jean, I'll be requesting him again, we were blown away by his great attitude and how helpful he was. read more

A few months ago, me and my friend group came to this place. The food was great! However, we sat nearby where the kitchen was and therre were what sounded like men back there saying really sexist and politically incorrect terms to each other. They were extremely loud about it, made us VERY uncomfortable. read more

Just had a great meal here, it's nice to have a nice neighborhood restaurant around here. Great service, atmosphere, drinks and meal. I believe Tyler was our server outside, we're already looking forward to our next visit! read more

I had lunch here for the first time on Saturday. It's an average Italian restaurant. I got the eggplant parmigiana and it was good. It came with bread, house side salad and a side of spaghetti. The bread lacked flavor and needed more butter or garlic. The house salad was just ok. There is a separate kids menu and kids eat free on Tuesday night. My dining companions got the kids spaghetti and a cheese steak sub that came with fries. The fries seemed strange at an Italian restaurant. I didn't like the "$2 splitting fee" that was on every page of the menu. I've never seen that before at a restaurant. What's so bad about splitting a dish? There was also a fly that was buzzing around us while we were trying to eat. read more

This was a great find in Oviedo, our first time visit. Menu offered a selection of moderately priced items from sandwiches to pizzas and Entrees. They had a special 2 for 1 beer promo which offered great value. All our food came out tasting great and nice presentation. The 4 stars are for lack of service, our server did not have experience. Salads came out after entrees, reminders were needed for beverages etc. Restaurant has a nice display of desserts that we will be back to try another time. read more

We tried 5 different dishes and each one was perfect. The calzones are huge and very tasty. The garlic rolls are to die for here. Pizza is good cook right not raw. Crispy slice with a nice tomato sauce. The staff is friendly and fast. read more

When we are seeking italian food in Oviedo, Cafe Panuzzo is the place we go Everything from the eggplant & chicken parm to their pasta is excellent. I also love their salad... the dressing is awesome. Give them a try. I'm sure you will like them too. Good eats.... read more

Wow! While at a friends they suggested ordering take out from here. I must admit I looked it up on yelp first and was a bit apprehensive, but they swore but it. The chicken parmesan was so good!! I get weary ordering dishes like that to go, but this was better than other recent chicken parmesan dishes I've had dining in. The chicken cutlet was thick and juicy and the sauce had a nice sweet finish. You can pay a small up charge for a side chef salad to accompany the chicken parmesan. All the ingredients were very fresh and I could see myself ordering a full size one next time. The pepperoni pizza was delicious. I'll definitely be coming here again! read more

Attended bingo night at panuzzo's. Bingo is free Monday night. We made a reservation and went early to eat before playing bingo which starts at 6. The place was packed. It was also happy hour. Two for one wine, beer, cocktails. For dinner we enjoyed house salad with tasty balsamic vinaigrette. Lots of dressing. We shared a mushroom and sausage pizza which was good. Not spectacular. Thin crust, lots of toppings. Others tasted the eggplant parmesan, chicken marsala and Greek salad. the eggplant parmesan was good and a large portion. The chicken marsala had a funny taste, an unusual herb or something. Don't think we'll order that again. Tasted different than other marsalas we've tried. The Greek salad was enormous with lots of toppings. Service was good and our server checked in with us constantly. The mike in the game didn't work so it was very hard to hear which made the game frustrating and confusing. You win restaurant coupons for the most part which cannot be used that night. read more

Good food & fabulous service. Love that it's locally owned & prices are reasonable. Comfort food.

Oviedo now has quite a few restaurants now, so it's been a while since we've dined at Cafe Panuzzo. First the Good: Great Pizza! Reminds me of the classic NY Style, thin crust. The Bad: Price / Portions have definitely swung in the wrong direction. I ordered a Chicken dish with Mozzarella. It was pretty good, but very small chicken breast. For $19.00 I suppose I expected something a little better and bigger. Unless I have the urge to pick up a pizza on the way home from work, I do t believe I'll be back to Panuzzo's. read more

Bianca Pizza is a must try !!! Amazing ambience and live music on the weekends, overall great local spot! read more

We are visiting from California and are in town for a wedding. We were looking for a place to have a late lunch and the check out person at Publix recommended Cafe Panuzzo. It was a great recommendation! Great service by Mary Ann and the food was delicious. Highly recommend! read more

Take out. Ordered $130 in take out. Could hardly hold the order but 3-4 people offered no help with door or carrying the order. Several containers were over turned when I got to the car. Watch a customer struggle. read more

Cafe Panuzzo's - Great Beer and Pizza - Italian Near Me - Oviedo, Florida

We have tried visiting a few times in the past several months and nothing has changed. Small portions of chicken (half of a hall breast) in my Italian chicken dish with cold pasta. Not worth the cost. Looking forward to the new restaurant being built in the parking lot... read more

Cafe Panuzzo's - Competitor- Chicken Picatta $14. Includes bread, dipping sauce and salad or soup. - Italian Near Me - Oviedo, Florida

We dined here for my mom-in-law's birthday tonight which always includes my dad-in-law who thinks it's funny to give servers a hard time and watch them squirm. Harrison did a wonderful job keeping up and going with the flow, joking around with the group and being attentive. The food was delicious! Chicken parm, veal parm, spinach salad, and an Italian sub were our picks tonight. Another lovely night for a happy occasion :) read more

The service is always good and the people are friendly. The food is good as well. I am not a fan of their soup. It's way too salty , so I don't order it anymore read more

Gets a 2 because of the food only. Staff slow as heck, something like fruit flies all over to the point we had to leave, protect boxes and glasses with napkins to avoid the bugs. I had to move the fake flowers because they had a ton of the bugs in them. Asked if the manager knew they said yes. Guys, it was like they didn't care. I couldn't believe it I wished I'd have gotten video. I asked if the manager was there and they said yes, no offer to get her just "yes" and the employee apologized. I reexplained everything and that I shouldn't t be paying 75.00 for two meals and have bug issues. No manager showed up. I'm sad because I liked the food but if there are bugs in the front of kitchen what the heck is in the back!!!?! Someone please call the health department. Maybe I will. That's the way they treat their customers.... read more

$71 + tip for 2 entree and a salad is excessive. Pizza was a bit soggy and very salty. The Shrimp & Scallops Alfredo was $32 and came with 3 scallops and 6 shrimp, but tasted good. Greek salad was excellent. The meal was takeout, but the staff was nice. read more

Loved this place! Everything we ordered was delicious and the staff was super friendly! I highly recommend the penne al vodka and the mozzarella sticks. The wait was a tad long and they brought us the wrong sized pizza, but quickly made up for it by giving us a both pizzas, free of extra charge. Definitely coming back! read more

We stopped by for lunch one afternoon and were pleased. We've been to this place before; the food has been good in the past....this time was great. We were seated quickly and then place was not really crowded at all. The uncrowded environment added to a positive experience TBH. I ordered the Italian sausage sub and my wife ordered a cheesesteak style sandwich. The sausage sandwich was topped with tomato sauce and mozzarella. It was more than ample. The flavor was nice and the sausage was cooked well. The sandwich had fries on the side.....I'm not issuable one for fries, but I at some and they were decent fries. My wife's sandwich was not as packed, but it was still enough for a good meal. The inside area has a good seating area that does not feel crowded and there is also a fairly decent sized outside seating area. Overall it was a nice stop for lunch & a tasty bite! read more

Love this restaurant. We have been going to Cafe Panuzzo for almost 25 years. Food is always good and staff is amazing. Family owned.

Had dinner here for the first time the other day and have to say, this place is amazing. The food was delicious, the waitress was outstanding, and the atmosphere was great. Sometimes we feel a little challenged finding Italian restaurants that offer rich flavors and a great selection of food. But this restaurant beat all our expectations. Looking forward to our next visit. read more

I challenge anyone to find better food or better service. Family owned and operated and it shows. Dine in or carry out it's the best Italian food around. read more

Best pizza in town!!! The restaurant is nice and welcoming and their pizza is so delicious. I also recommend their Tiramisu! read more

Went to Panuzzo's for dinner with my family and the food was great. Ian, our server was very attentive. The garlic knots were delicious. My husband enjoyed the tortellini prosciutto, my son liked his sandwich, it was big enough for him to take half home. The pizza Bianca was really good. Definitely we will be back. read more

Fabulous food and service. Prompt, polite, fairly priced and for a neighborhood Italian restaurant- top notch

Gave them the benefit of doubt once again for a simple pizza and calzone. Both dry and overcooked and the amount of seasoning on the calzone is just ridiculous. read more

Cafe Panuzzo's - Dry overly seasoned Cheese Calzone - Italian Near Me - Oviedo, Florida

What would have been a great dining experience was soured by the volume of the music being played by the solo artist. We asked the server to ask him to possibly turn it down as we could barely converse with my 89 year old parents until he went on break. Whether she mentioned it to him or not, it didn't change. We won't be coming back when there's live music, that's for sure...more appropriate dinner type background music is the answer. read more

Ordered takeout from here and the portions were really small for appetizers (bruschetta and calamari). The chicken Parmesan was dry and their marinara sauce (that comes with a lot of dishes) just didn't taste fresh. I'd love them to take more ownership of the quality of their product for their customers because having a mom and pop Italian place in Oviedo is great. I will say the food was ready for pick up on time so I appreciate that. read more
