Enjoyable lunch experience. They have a daily lunch special-any 2 slices + soda. We got the pizza of the day (pepperoni and sausage) and pizza bianca. Both were tasty. Service was enjoyable. Their garlic knots looked amazing! I need to try these next time. read more

We got the pepperoni pizza slice lunch combo that came with a drink and 2 garlic knots. The pizza slices and the garlic knots are large proportions. The price was a good deal for the amount of food you get. The service was fast. The dining area were clean tables and chairs inside. I would come back. It was a great place to eat before going to the movies nearby. read more

Pizzeria Valdiano - Pepperoni pizza slice and garlic knots - Pizza Near Me - Orlando, Florida

Took a weekend trip to Orlando and after all the traveling we needed a good pizza to ring in the weekend. I'm SO glad we stumbled across this NY style pizza parlor!! We ordered the classics.... Cheese and pepperoni pizza!!! You know a place is GOOOOOD when their cheese pizza makes you want to come back!!! And this spot made me wish I was in Orlando more often just to order this pizza!! Both pizzas were perfectly cooked, not too greasy, and not too crazy ( you know those new pizza places and their taco or hamburger pizzas) The service was fast and the pizzas were still fresh when we got home!!!!!! I definitely recommend ordering from or going to visit Pizzeria Valdiano!!! It was delicious read more

Do you like Pizza? Of course you do! For some reason, I've never tried this place in my 9 years of living in East Orlando, and I have been missing out. I love pizza by the slice more than ordering a whole pie. It just tastes better when it's cooked, sliced, displayed and reheated to order. The crust is crispier, the sauce doesn't scorch your mouth, and you can try more than one kind of pizza. I tried the pepperoni which was good, but nothing to write home about as it had some coverage, but not great. The "white" pizza didn't have sauce and was delicious with dollops of ricotta scattered about. My large slice had 3 larger sections of the ricotta. The flavors were there, but the coverage wasn't all that great for me. The dough is legit with crispy outside and chewy inside, so that's a great start to the pizza. The other ingredients are of high quality, but something was slightly missing for me. I may try one of their specials as the slice method can get pricey. Even though it's good, I probably won't be a regular. read more

I love this place so much. I love the pizza, the wings, the subs, and workers. A group of the kindest and funniest bunch ever. I enjoy the ambience and definitely recommend this place. read more

I love good Italian food. I grew up in a little town in Central Jersey that's approximately 2.5 miles square. There were 7 Italian restaurants plus a little pistons downtown that is still there. This was good food. It was lunch. I didn't sample much, but everything was good. Chicken & broccoli Stromboli, slice of pizza (I always get a slice at a new place. If they can't do a slice, I don't trust the rest. They served up a great slice), mini cannoli and chocolate cake. Friendly service. Pleasant space enhanced by the outdoor patio seating provided all along the row of casual dining establishments (the patio). read more

My sisters raved about this place, so of course, we had to stop by before I left town. Upon arrival, I noticed how packed this place was, which is a good sign. As a native New Yorker, I am very particular about pizza. Let me say, I was surprised how very good PV was - delicious! The ambiance of this spot is typical of a pizza place - it's simple yet cozy. There is additional seating outside if the interior is crowded. We opted for a large pie and fountain drinks (their local lemonade mix). Overall solid experience - worth the visit and I look forward to coming back next time I'm in town. read more

20-25 mins for pickup on a Saturday night = a positive!! The pizza was good in flavor but be aware that the crust is more on the thin and almost crispy side. Chicken wings nice and meaty! What disappointed me was the garlic bread.. it was very dry. No type of greasy vibes going. Finding parking for pickup was difficult on weekend night due to the high traffic in the plaza. read more

Pizzeria Valdiano has been located in the Waterford Lakes Town Center for years and years. My brother-in-law and sister have been going here for years and have brought pizza to my house several times over those years and honestly, I have never been impressed. Tonight, my brother-in-law and sister brought pizza, mozzarella sticks and garlic knots to my house and we had dinner. The company was pleasant, however, out of the pizza, mozzarella sticks and garlic knots, I can't say that anything was very good. In fact, to call any of the above mentioned foods even mediocre would be to reaching high with a grade. I think that frozen pizza or mozzarella sticks would be a better option than what Pizzeria Valdiano served us. I did not have the garlic knots, but my niece said that they were rather lackluster. Honestly, it saddens me that my brother-in-law and sister find this establishment acceptable. I found it pretty sad all around. There are better pizza places very close. Check one of them out instead of here. read more

After five months tried it again. Really wanted good pizza for lunch and don't care for other restaurants. This time very good. Sauce, toppings and crust very good. I'll be back. read more

Great place to grab a slice and go! Food is great and prices are fair. Small restaurant with a few tables but always a taste quick choice in Waterford! read more

Best pizza around!!! Our go to place to eat when in Waterford Lakes. Also the best subs and garlic knots.

As a born New Yorker, Valdiano is a personal go to. They have a beef pepperoni option which is greatly appreciated as a person that doesn't eat pork. Their garlic knots are great, its like chewing on a buttery cloud. Staff is nice and the restaurant is alway clean. read more

Great pizza!! Love the pizza picante it is nice and spicy! Don't love their garlic bread or knots but hey, we can't be great at everything!

Today was in the mood in having a pizza slice! I been wondering about Valdiano for quite some time and today we finally gave them a chance. They did not disappoint with basically what we were looking for ( something close to a slice like NY Pizza). We got the Cheese and Pepperoni pizza slice with one Garlic knot. We asked for the Pizza to be extra crispy on the crust and they did just dad (warning wait a few to take a bite because you will burn the roof of mouth). The reason for the 4 star is in relate to the garlic knot(great flavor but was undercook a tad bit) I know the price are a little on the high end but on Monday's and Tuesday's they have Large Cheese Pizza for 10 dollars. Will definitely be returning here. read more

TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE I was there with my 2 kids hungry to get the pizza, after few minutes waiting and checking the lady that was doing it. She started scratching her back, after that putting her hand on nose all time and to get worst she started squeezing pimples on her face ! Unbelievable in few minutes what happened and i was waiting after everything to see if she will put gloves and unfortunately I couldn't accepted and asked my money back. The cashier very educated but unfortunately is missing a lot on hygiene, working with food is unacceptable. read more

Pizzeria Valdiano - Cheese pizza and a little fan. - Pizza Near Me - Orlando, Florida

We love pizza, and Italian food in general. I've eaten at their sister location dozens of times as I use to work nearby. We visited this location recently while holiday shopping and popped in for a refuel. You order at the counter and I highly recommend the lasagna pizza, which is my personal fave. You'll have to order a pie to get this one, but it's worth it. You'll want garlic knots to share also!!The pizza has all the classic ingredients for lasagna, just used as toppings on the pizza. The inside had a few tables, so you can eat their or take it to go. The tables were clean. They fresh make anything not already in the case, so it may take a minute if you order a whole pie. The staff is very friendly and moves quick. Salads are good and fresh here also if you prefer a side salad or entree. The cannoli is a great pick for dessert if you have the room. Overall: A Really good pizza - try the lasagna pizza pie!! read more

I've had a few pizzas here. People love them! I think they're fine. Good enough but nott be err good. Know what I mean? And they're expensive. $20 for large pie with 2 toppings? That's like $4 too much at least. They use a lot of cheese which could be good but I find it makes the pizza too "soupy". Crust is fine. Not enough toppings for $2 each! And I would cook the pizza aa little longer. The cheese should have a little crispness to it on the top. The crust should have some char. Still waiting to find some killer pizza in the area! read more

This is a good place, don't let the 4 stars fool you. Super reliable, tasty, generous, prices may be a tad higher than other places, but this is some legit old school NY style pizza. Before coming here, I had stopped by the location in Winter Park, and that means I am not new to Valdiano. This location at Waterford Lakes is convenient and very nice, yet not a large space. Think take out when coming here. I have picked up subs, pasta dinners, pizza by the slice, and pizza pies. I must reiterate that the pizza is straightforward old school NY style, with a thick-ish crust, lots of cheese and yummy pizza sauce. The rolls are good also, and the subs are also good. The dinners are surprisingly good, the sauce is amazing, the pasta is always cooked right and the eggplant parmigiana is easily one of the best ever. This place can throw some punches! Let the food do the talking... For doughey pizza, come to Valdiano. For subs and dinners, don't think twice, this is the best around. You'll be surprised about the quality of the food. One more thing: excellent reheat-ability. Badaboom, badabing... read more

Pizzeria Valdiano - Pizza Olivia - Pizza Near Me - Orlando, Florida

Stopped in on a whim so my wife could get a lasagna pizza (yes, you read that right), and I got the Stromboli of the day (beef and sausage). Her 10" pizza plus my Stromboli and a drink came to $20.99 with tax. The food was out in about 10 minutes. Inside, the restaurant is small but nice. Pizza is available by the pie or slice, and they have a cooler with desserts, wine, and beer. Overall, it was a good experience, and I look forward to going back. read more

The pizza was ok. I came in on Wednesday and got a slice of the day that included Pepperoni, red onion, what was either goat cheese or feta, and black olives. I thought it was pretty good at $2.75, the only thing I thought was that the tomato sauce was a bit too acidic. I also had a slice of the Bianca and the description said it has ricotta cheese and I swear that I didn't see it or at least there wasn't enough for me to pick up on it. (See Pic) Like I said before; it was ok, that's it. read more

Pizzeria Valdiano - Slice of the day, slice of Bianca - Pizza Near Me - Orlando, Florida

I really really wanted this place to be our "go to" for pizza. My husband and I haven't found a good WNY style place since we moved from Sarasota. We miss Casa Di Pizza so much. I ordered 2 slices - one cheese/pep and bianca. I ended up with 3 slices - a plain cheese included. Didn't notice till I got in the car and wondered why 2 slices would be $9. Now I know. They warm up the slices and by the time I got home. It wasn't as crispy as I would hope and I live in Waterford. I don't want sauce oozing off the sides when I bite but I would like some sauce. For me, it tasted like just cheese and bread. For our taste, it was average. read more

Pizzeria Valdiano - 3 Slices - (1) Bianca (2) Cheese/Pep =$9 ($$$$) - Pizza Near Me - Orlando, Florida

Pizza wasn't good. We came to grab a slice of pizza between a Cooper's hawk wine tasting and playing golf at PopStroke. We ordered two slices of cheese, one slice of pepperoni, and one slice of valdiano. We were charged 18.95 at the register, tipped accordingly, then went to sit down. I thought that seemed expensive so calculated on my phone how much the four slices should've cost. It should've been $13.65+tax. We decided to not say anything since $5 wasn't worth complaining. When they delivered the pizza I asked for a side of ranch dressing. They came back to say I had to pay $0.50 per ranch, which is when I brought up the price discrepancy. The manager ended up coming out and acknowledged that we got overcharged for our meal (we got charged for drinks we did not order nor receive). They did not offer to refund us the extra $5 we were charged, nor any other way to compensate us. The pizza wasn't even good. Long story short they way overcharged us and the pizza was not good. read more

Pretty disappointed with the food quality and service. They won't even give you a cup of ice water as a dine in customer. This place has gone downhill over the past few years. It's so sad because we used to enjoy coming here after a movie with the kids. This will sadly be my last visit. read more

Pizza there is pretty good, but I do have some grievances. The employees are always so friendly, and the food is mostly consistent. I am a regular and I just learned that when you are at the register paying, there is a place on the screen for you to put a tip. I knew at one time, the tips were split by the workers, which I loved. I did not mind. Recently, I learned that a while back this practice stopped happening, but the tip selection is still on the screen and is kept by the owner apparently. That did not sit well with me. Who carries cash anymore?!?! If you have no intention on allowing the workers to keep the tips the customer graciously offers for their service, then why is that option still available on screen? Shady practice if you ask me. I do enjoy their pizza, and the customer service of the employees is wonderful. If you visit this establishment either do not tip (if paying be card) or tip in cash because apparently, they are able to split those tips. Shame on you Valdianio's. read more

Had a wonderful time tonight hanging out having the best pizza in town! Thank you staff for a great job and nice service.

Best pizza in East Orlando, very clean and tasty, not oily at all and crust is very crispy, reminded me of NY pizza, best I've had so far

Came to grab a pie after some late shopping. The downside to this is that the chairs were up and the place was being mopped an hour before close so dining room was not an option. It would have probably been a tough dine because the AC was kicked all the way up and it was FREEZING! The worker mopping the floor seemed a little bothered that we had to walk across it to get to the register and without any greeting of merit almost reluctantly took our order leaning the mop against the register. Workers in the back were in their end of day routine as well laughing it up so there wasn't much customer service there either. We sat outside in mainly darkness as lighting was not great in the outside dining area. The pizza was brought to us and the thank you was warm. Ordered the large cheese pizza and grabbed a can of cream soda to wash it down. Pizza wasn't as good as I remembered but this could be attributed to the fact that I was already done at this point. This experience was a 2 star but I have eaten here before and remember being impressed so I'm not sure what happened. I will have to revisit and change/update my review if warranted. read more

Pizzeria Valdiano - Large cheese pizza - Pizza Near Me - Orlando, Florida

I hosted an Italian themed dinner at work that was catered by Pizza Valdiano's. I ordered six dozen of their delicious fancy garlic knots that included four large cups full of marinara dipping sauce. The garlic knots were neatly placed in extra large pizza boxes and one of the staff members were kind enough to help me to my car, even though I was parked all the way near Bed Bath and Beyond because it was the weekend. When I set everything up, the garlic knots were the biggest hit of the night! By the morning, all of the garlic knots were gone and my coworkers were still asking for more! I will definitely keep coming back to my favorite pizza restaurant in Orlando. Thanks Pizza Valdiano's! read more

If only there was an option to put 0 stars. As their consistent customer of 6 months, the last two months were terrible. I always order the same thing and would always either get a sauce missing or get the cold slices that have been sitting on the display for who knows how long. Just today I ordered my usual again, and had to wait for twenty (20) minutes for one slice of cheese and a side. Mind you, only one couple and I were at the restaurant at that time, so it was definitely not busy (even then the pizza was cold again). The customer service varies vastly and for the most part has been fine. It is the inconsistencies that really disappointed me and ruined my lunch. read more

are there better pizzas around? sure. but this place is cheaper than most, has a great vibe and friendly faces. that's worth more than anything. try their knots and the grandma Sicilian!! read more

This place has good pizza. It's classic! I would not order their meatballs again, I prefer my moms, but I think that's everyone with an Italian mother. However, I would come here any time for their pizza, and I do. I highly recommend this place if you are craving a classic New York style pizza; which is my go to combo for my own nostalgic reasons. This place reminds me of my home town pizza place; not fancy and elaborate, but a classic, and a staple. read more

Ordered 2 slices with mushrooms and garlic only. My first bite had garlic, mushrooms and onions. The pizza was better than average. I took a couple of extra bites hoping the slice only had just a sprinkling of onion, But it was full of onions. I asked for it to be redone to my specifications. And it was redone and came out quickly with thick cut raw mushrooms thrown on top. Made this known also to the owner, and he was visibly unhappy and just shoved my box on the counter and said gruffly, "Give her, her money back." Then he explained to me, that what I wanted, just couldn't be done. I've ordered at other establishments this way and the mushrooms were cut thin and somewhat stuck to the cheese when warmed up. And there were no extra ingredients on the slice that should have started out with only cheese. Yes and he did have an excuse of how the onions got there on the first slices. Hmmm The owner did refund my money. The pizza is decent. But not a place for me to get my favorite slice done up the way I like. read more
