The pasta was perfectly al dente and the shrimp were crisp to the bite. The before dinner rolls were incredibly soft and delicious and the tiramisu was light, not too sweet and enough to share. I meant to remember the name of our server as she was perfect! Not too hover-y, always there exactly when needed and with a great sunny disposition. I'm sorry that I can't recall her name as she deserves a raise! It was the perfect restaurant experience and the prices were good.

For our selections, we got the fried mozzarella and fried calamari to start. We moved on to the beef medallions, chicken parm, lasagna, and lobster carbonara. Each bite was better than the previous. Our servers, Leslie and Alex were great! Leslie has the personality you pray for when you're celebrating a special occasion. We were blessed to have her. My only complaint, and this was super minor, the table space was tight. We had a party of 7 and it felt like we were stacked on top of the other tables. A couple of trips to the bathroom for the kids felt like a task. Once seated, we were fine, but the endless "excuse me's" was inconvenient. Overall, I'm glad we spent the afternoon at Maggiano's. I felt appreciated on my special day.

Flaviane Carvalho was a manager here when she saved a young boy from an abusive stepfather. The viral body cam footage and media coverage proves Flaviane Carvalho as a courageous Samaritan. After the overwhelming public support, Flaviane started her own business and now supplies the meat to Mrs Potato. I went here after seeing the viral body camera footage and was equally impressed by the food. The location is in the back of a strip mall and it is decorated very fun with potato heads all over. I highly recommend stopping by to try the food and support this establishment!

The theme is Brazilian, but my main takeaway was the remarkable Hash Brown and the fillings. I'd never eaten anything like these. But if you love hash browns, this would be your Nirvana.

This isn't pizza. This is architectural dairy…read more Giordano's deep dish comes from Chicago bloodlines--born in 1974, forged by Italian immigrants who decided that thin crust was a betrayal and sauce belongs on top like a crown. This is pizza that doesn't arrive--it lands. With weight. With purpose. With the confidence of something that knows it will be remembered. Let's clear something up immediately: Yes, Costco sells Giordano's frozen pies. No, that is not the same thing. That's like saying you've been to Italy because you once made espresso in a Keurig. This location on Sand Lake Road is the real deal--the pilgrimage stop. The one where you either dine in and commit or order ahead like a professional because this pizza takes time. As it should. Anything that good shouldn't be rushed. You don't microwave a cathedral. The pie comes out molten, layered, unapologetically excessive. Cheese first. Mountains of it. Then toppings buried like treasure. Then that signature tomato sauce on top, bold and tangy, staring you down like, "Yeah. I did this." You don't eat this pizza--you sign a waiver. I always grab one to take back home because regret is cheaper than airfare, and this pizza reheats like a champ. It's comfort food with infrastructure. One slice can solve problems. Two slices cancels your plans. Three slices and you're texting apologies. And honestly? I wish they had more locations. This is not a casual "oh maybe tonight" place. This is a destination pizza. A plan-ahead, clear-the-schedule, wear-stretchy-pants situation. Orlando has plenty of pizza pretending to matter. Giordano's actually does. So yes--I'll keep stopping here. Every time. No hesitation. Because some places aren't optional...

Love the deep dish pizza always. This specific Giordanos is pretty dirty (windows, doors,…read morebathrooms, what you can see of the kitchen when you walk back, the pile of dirty paper towels that sit by the door going back into the dining room). I did let someone know the soap was out in both the men's and women's bathrooms and the paper towels in the women's (mom life visiting both multiple times). Neither was addressed in the time we were there (probably an hour and a half...takes about 45 minutes to get deep dish). Service wise at this place, looked like one person working most of the tables, so I know that can be tough and it was a little slow reflecting that, which isn't her fault. The biggest weird thing though is that we actually took a second to look at our bill (both of us looked). The subtotal didn't add up. So I'm not sure if she already added tip and just didn't have a line for it (maybe it's like an auto thing?) but then when you tap to pay it gives you another spot to tip again. I just think that's a little sketch. We often are in a hurry and don't look, so adding an extra almost $20 and not having a line for it and then also having a spot for another tip can be a little deceptive. There were just the 4 of us, I know it's often auto when it's a bigger table, but we weren't. So, yeah, just weird and felt a bit deceptive. And there was a line for tax, so it wasn't that.

And when I say it's robust and full of flavor, some don't even need sauce. You can literally pair it with veggies and olive oil and you have a meal.

Still it was quiet that we were able to enjoy our dinner. We were celebrating my husband 65th birthday and they comped us with a dessert. We enjoyed Pinot Grigio and shared to Caesar salad. My husband got the veal cutlet Parm and I ordered the shrimp scampi. While the portions were large, my husband thought the veal cutlet was too bready. My shrimp scampi was tasty, but not exactly what I was anticipating. I have ordered this about two years ago here. This time it seemed like the sauce might've had too much either cornstarch or gelatin in it. It shined and was not as buttery as I recalled. Needless to say, I did eat it all. I would go back. We truly enjoyed our time there..
