Not exaggerating when I say this is my fav pizza in Orlando. It's like impossible to get a seat here unless you have a reservation. The first time I went, I sat on the bar and I enjoyed it a lot. The second time I sat outside and it was super hot but still worth it. I always order their hot honey pepperoni pizza & it blows me out of the water every time. They have a pretty good happy hour with some nice selections. I ordered theCetriolo that contains cucumber vodka, agave, lime, white cranberry, & basil. It was light and pleasant. It made the heat way more bearable! read more

5/5 - One of the Best Meals on Park Avenue Prato continues to prove why it's one of Winter Park's most talked-about restaurants. From the moment the food hit the table, everything looked as good as it tasted. The Margherita pizza was outstanding--perfectly blistered wood-fired crust with a light, airy chew, fresh mozzarella, bright tomato sauce, and basil that let every ingredient shine. Simple, authentic, and executed flawlessly. The chicken sandwich was equally impressive. The chicken was crispy without being greasy, topped with fresh mozzarella and tomato on soft, fresh bread. Paired with perfectly seasoned crispy fries, it made for an excellent lunch. The espresso martini was the perfect finishing touch--smooth, rich, and beautifully balanced with a creamy foam that coffee lovers will appreciate. The outdoor patio on Park Avenue creates a relaxed atmosphere that's perfect for people-watching while enjoying an authentic Italian meal. Service was attentive without feeling rushed, and the quality of the ingredients was evident in every bite. If you're looking for some of the best wood-fired pizza in Central Florida, Prato is absolutely worth the visit. Whether you're stopping in for lunch, date night, or drinks with friends, it's easy to see why Prato has become a Winter Park favorite known for its modern Italian cuisine and lively atmosphere. read more

Prato is such a comfort meal for me. The staff is always kind, the vibe of the space is cozy, and it's always a meal to look forward to. My go to drink is usually a white linen. However, for the sake of happy hour, I ordered the Cetriolo and my husband ordered a negroni bianco. The cetriolo was light, refreshing, heavy on the cucumber, and overall the perfect summer cocktail. And the negroni was smooth and sophisticated. As a starter, we ordered the meatballs (because you didn't go to prato if you didn't order them) and the Piccante Dolce to balance. The meatballs are always such a classic 10/10 you have to get them. The Piccante Dolce was light and very balanced. As our mains, I ordered the Duck and Foie Gras Mezzaluna (mind you i'm typically a mustard spaghetti girl) and was VERY surprised! It was a great portion, not too heavy, and absolutely delicious! My husband got the Chicken Saltimbocca and demolished the entire thing. It's safe to say he was a fan. Because it was my birthday, I was offered a free dessert from their menu. The Cheesecake with peach compote was incred. She wasn't too sweet and a great sized portion for 2 people. Our server, Alexandra, was the SWEETEST. She was so attentive and had such a great attitude. She offered to take pictures of us, and really made our day. Next time we come, we will be requesting to sit in her section. read more

A group of friends and I decided to try this place out, mostly due to their handmade pasta. There were 10 of us. We had a reservation. When we arrive, we were seated promptly back by the kitchen. There was a group of employees making pasta. Our waiter was super nice and provided us with menus and drinks promptly. I ordered the carbonara that came with rigatoni pasta. They didn't have bread, which we all thought was very odd since it was an Italian restaurant. Course it took a while to get our orders... Approximately 30 minutes. My carbonara rigatoni pasta was super thick and very chewy. It actually was awful! The people who ordered items with spaghetti noodles said their noodles were delicious. We had three people who ordered chicken Parmesan sandwich, which all three of them said their sandwiches were awful and soggy and the chicken was overcooked. The interior of this restaurant is beautiful and it seems they're trying to be very trendy but what they really need to do is send their cooks to school. Unfortunately we probably won't be back and that's too bad. read more

The aesthetic of the tall wooden rafters, stone floors, mood lighting and peeks of natural sun, it gives high class Italian in the best way possible. As you walk in there's a large bar with a decent amount of seating, and to the right a mix of tables. Take on the limited outdoor seating at your own risk during Florida's storm season. I started with the Sunshine State cocktail. The gin cocktail was a little more lime forward than I prefer, but I'm still a fan! To follow it, I tried the Negroni Bianco. It was on the sweeter side and had a lot of floral flavor. The Bruschette Caprese has so much flavor, I couldn't get place if the tomatoes were marinated, but I loved it! For dinner I couldn't resist the house special, mustard spaghettini. It was creamy, and mustard marinated noodles the perfect balance. As you'd expect with the setting and price point, the service was professional and attentive. read more

Very nice quality at Prato. We came to celebrate a graduation on a Friday afternoon. It was packed. I went with the server's suggestion of Cacio e Pepe pasta, which was so rich and creamy. The ham specks also added a little bit of saltiness. My husband got the Margherita pizza and it was also delicious, crisp, and cooked very well. We would definitely eat here again. read more

Came in on a Saturday (with a reservation) and was seated right away. Service was quick, and we ordered the meatball appetizer. It came out quick and delicious. I ordered the Mustard Spaghettini, which was really good. My mom ordered the gnocchi, which was really good too. Everyone else ordered pizza and said they were good. Since we were visiting, it is definitely a place I would come back to again when in the area. I love the shopping area, so this was a nice lunch treat after walking around in the heat. read more

This was one of the most delicious Italian meals ever! So many flavors and pasta was perfection. The servers were very kind. I didn't personally care for the space itself. It felt dark and kinda cramped but I am sure many people like that vibe. The thing that kept me from giving 5 stars was the tiramisu. It was actually very bad. I was so surprised. At least the cheesecake was redeemable. The place is very pricey so if I came back it would be a very special occasion. read more

What a great spot for a date night. My boyfriend and I made a weekend reservation and were seated right away when we arrived. The inside is decorated so cute with plants and gentle lighting. We got a booth near the bar area. I started off the evening with an espresso martini - and boy was it good! I would definitely recommend. For an appetizer we started with the Prato Meatballs. This order comes with 3 large meatballs that were juicy and flavorful. Let's get to the entrees. We ordered the Rigatoni Bolognese and the Beef Short Rib. The bolognese was hearty and so yummy. There was alot and plenty to also take home for the next day. The beef short rib was extremely tender and the potatos were fluffy. I think this was a solid dish. To finish off the evening, we had to get a dessert. We ordered the cheesecake to split. It had a different texture an maybe a traditional cheesecake but still delicious. We had great service. The bar seemed to keep filling up the whole time we were there and a busy spot. Everything here made for a perfect date night spot. read more

We came in for dinner and had a great experience. Service was welcoming and the atmosphere was so relaxing. I enjoyed a glass of prosecco. For our appetizer, we got the pretzel breaded calamari. It came with two sauces and both were delicious. The calamari was tender and crisp. For my entree, I got the truffle gnocchi. They were so pillowy and the sauce was to die for. The portions were solid. It was a good meal. read more

Prato - Deliciousness!!! - Pizza Near Me - Winter Park, Florida

Prato in Winter Park was such a fantastic stop! The vibe is fun and lively as soon as you walk through the doors. It was pretty busy for a Thursday--thanks to the gorgeous weather--but we were seated right away, even with the crowds. They offer both outdoor seating and bar seating, which adds to the relaxed, welcoming atmosphere. Our server was wonderful, taking the time to explain the menu and share some great recommendations. We started with the Burrata appetizer and holy cow... it was incredible. A huge, beautifully presented plate with super fresh lettuce, sliced pears, almonds, and the burrata split open and drizzled with prosecco. Hands down the best burrata I've ever had. For my lunch entrée, I ordered the Panino Caprese sandwich, and it was everything you love about a fresh caprese salad tucked inside warm focaccia. So yummy. I chose the house-made chips on the side, and they were amazing--crispy, flavorful, and clearly fresh. This was an excellent dining experience all around. Highly recommend stopping by Prato if you're in the Winter Park area! read more

I give it a 3.8 and rounded up overall, just because the service was a 5. Food we had was so so. Check out the size of the pawn! For the price, is 3 medium shrimp. If they are going to serve shrimp, they need it to give more, maybe 6. The duck was little better. The drink was the best part. read more

I have always wanted to come here and I finally came with my friends. The restaurant has a nice low lit ambience to it. The service here was good. To start we got the beef carpaccio and we really enjoyed it. I got the Cacio e pepe, this was amazing. The noodles here are so good and the sauce was delicious. We also really enjoyed the potato gnocchi so creamy and perfectly chewy. Last thing we got was the Margarita Pizza, it tasted fresh but it was a bit too floppy/soggy for me. I prefer a crispier pizza crust. I would definitely come back here again for their pasta. I want to come back and try their other pasta dishes. read more

A client from St Pete met me midway. I turned to yelp for a nice lunch venue. I had never experienced Winter Park and I found it lovely, Prato was a perfect place to meet. Joey was our server and he was great. My guest was not as adventurous as me, so he got the meatball app which I tried and was excellent. I had the carpaccio and crudo, both excellent. I had the local lager on tap. We each had a personal pizza, I got the spicy selection and it was spicy enough. I loved the petite red peppers on the pizza. Overall it was perfect for our meeting and I would go again while in the neighborhood. read more

I was driving home from Orlando and decided to stop here for some pizza. It is conveniently located on Park Avenue in Winter Park. They have indoor, outdoor and bar seating. It was a beautiful sunny day so I decided to sit outside at one of their sidewalk tables. The menu offers appetizers, salads, pizzas, pastas and entrees. I opted for the Diavolo Pizza. It came with pepperoni, pancetta, and Italian long peppers. It was just a little spicy but tasted great. Service was quick from my server, Lily. read more

This place is beautifully decorated. I love the dim lighting and neighborhood feel inside. I heard good things about this place and looked forward to trying it. Upon seating, I was given water and greeted with a menu. After asking the bartender what the most popular drink was, he suggested the Cetriolo, "for sure" which is a martini made of cucumber organic vodka, agave, lime, white cranberry, and topped with a basil garnish. It tastes absolutely delicious. Its also one of the cheaper drinks on the menu. For dinner, I did a little research and saw some appetizing pictures on Yelp. I ordered the Mustard Spaghettini "Cacio E Pepe" half portion. It was delicious. Would definitely return. Even if for the martini alone! read more

Our first two meals at Prato were simple - bruschetta, salads and pastas. Each dish was well thought out and perfectly executed. Thoughtful touches such as Prato's own balsamic vinegar made the salads vibrant and interesting. The three pasta dishes were the best pasta dishes I have eaten in years - the "look of love" on my wife's face after her first bite of the sweet corn agnolotti was wonderful to see. Our servers Sabrina and Jimmy were extremely friendly, knowledgeable and attentive. I cannot wait to go back and try more of the interesting menu. Be sure to make a reservation unless you want to wait a while. read more

Prato never disappoints. Accidentally made reservations for a week ahead but alas, they had tables for a party of 3 for lunch today. The ambiance is always on par and the service compliments it. They do change the menu, which is nice and today we normally get the escarole salad, but they have Caesar salad "the little gem". Both are perfect, I prefer the escarole to the gem as it has more of a vinaigrette flavored dressing compared to a creamier one. My husband is basic and ordered half cheese and half pepperoni pizza. I ordered the Funghi. Both delicious. I normally get a lunch sized pasta but was more in a pizza mood. My favorite is walking to the back and passing the kitchen where you see them making the pasta by hand. Prato is always a good option, but always remember to reserve a table! read more

The best Italian restaurant! We went during lunch since we weren't able to get a dinner rez for weeks. We got the chopped chicken salad and the Diavolo pizza to share, and I got the rigatoni to myself. The salad was amazing. I usually order salads when I just want to get some greens in me but this was an enjoyable salad with lots of greens, chicken and bits of bacon that pairs well with the slightly sweet raisins. My rigatoni was perfectly seasoned and the noodles were cooked al dente. I could tell they were made from scratch. The diavolo pizza was the reason why we came and unfortunately it just wasn't the best diavolo pizza I've had. It wasn't that flavorful and the bite was tough and lacked cheese pull. The service was amazing and we had our waters refilled constantly. They were attentive and quite funny. The ambiance is wonderfully decorated with a tavern-feel. This place is definitely worth coming to try, especially their salads and pasta. I'll definitely come back to try their other pizzas! read more

Last night we visited Prato and my expectations were unfortunately not met. I want to start off with the atmosphere was very good and the staff were very friendly. It was a last-minute dinner reservation. We wanted something in the Winter Park area and Prato was the closest thing to a last minute table we can find. We had the meatballs to start and the octopus. The meatballs had a really good flavor and we're very filling. The octopus unfortunately came in a spicy sauce, one small potato, little chewy for my taste and the bacon, you can really taste the bacon grease. Wasn't my favorite octopus. Let's start with one of the most disappointing plates. They're Cacio e pepe. We were told that it's one of their most popular dishes. I posted two photos. One is of a real Cacio e Pepe from Italy and the other one is a made up version Pratos invented. Cacio e Pepe doesn't have sun-dried tomatoes or ham. It's a simple and most delicious plate with only two ingredients. That unfortunately was not served. It was honestly disappointing. That can pass more for carbonara. I'm not saying that they're trying to re-create the real dish. It was just quite disappointing, considering I was really looking forward to having Cacio E Pepe. We also had the spicy pizza. Could use a little more cheese on the pizza. Besides that the dough was perfect. Also a house Cab $31 dollar is ridiculous. You should have a house red or blend at a lot more reasonable price. It's house wine. The real star of the night was their homemade tiramisu. It was light and creamy in all the right ways. Will we return? Probably not. But the price was very fair considering it's in winter park. I would just order something else. I'm sure they have a lot of better plates. read more

Our order: Margherita pizza with gluten-free crust, honeycrisp salad, Caesar salad, spring carrot soup, broccolini The Review: The star of the show was the GF pizza. Important to note that it's made in the same oven as the others and is open to cross-contamination. The salads were also nice, crispy, and flavorful. Why -2 stars? We came here for my mom's birthday, and I was really hoping for a seamless experience. The food was extremely slow to arrive and was served in a random order. For example, the broccolini, soup, and wine came at the very end (not to mention almost an hour later). The server did not come to check on us. The wines were bottom shelf, just really unfortunate quality. We got a Barbera and a Montepulciano. The burn in our throats was enough to know, and a quick Google search confirmed our suspicions. This could be a really great place for fine dining, if a few things are corrected! read more

Enjoyed lunch at the newly remodeled restaurant. Smartly decorated and designed. We enjoyed the pretzel coated calamari very good but, didn't taste any pretzel crust. We also enjoyed the octopus. Very good. For our entree's we enjoyed the steak panini, Gorgonzola burger with a side salad. Both very good. Also enjoyed the Cacio e Pepe entree. The new culinary team is spot on with the flavors and presentations of the dishes. Service was very good. Very attentive. Friendly and offered recommendations. Great food, service and atmosphere for meals with $$ signs. Definitely must try. Enjoy the photos below. read more

We had a great time at Prato and were happy to snag a reservation at the last minute. The restaurant has a nice ambiance and I loved the plants on the walls. With that said the real show stopper was the Mustard Spaghettini, it was a perfect dish. We ate every bite. We also thoroughly enjoyed our Margherita pizza and the burrata. For drinks we opted for non alcoholic cocktails and my choice the Luna Rosa had a nice kick to it. read more

Tried to make a reservation 2 weeks in advance for a birthday dinner. The employee on the phone said they needed to check with management and would give me a call back in 24 hours.

Will not return here. Went to the bar for an evening of drinks and food with friends. Service was less than impressive however we had a good time and food was good. The problem is when we signed our bill. We left a generous 25 % tip which is definitely more than we should have. However, when we got home our Credit Card notified us that we had left a 35 % tip. We have our receipt and even the copy where we wrote in our tip. We called the restaurant and asked for a manager, we were told they were busy and they would call us back. It's been 5 days since then so I'm not holding my breath. Definitely will not return, too many other places with better food and service and more honesty. read more

Prato is an absolute standout. From the moment we arrived, the service was warm, attentive, and effortlessly professional--friendly without ever feeling rushed or intrusive. The ambience is perfect: stylish yet relaxed, with a cozy, inviting energy that makes you want to linger. The pizza was exceptional--beautifully cooked with a perfect crust, high-quality ingredients, and incredible flavor in every bite. Pair that with their excellent wine selection, which complements the food perfectly, and you've got a truly memorable dining experience. Prato gets everything right: service, atmosphere, food, and wine. A place I'd happily return to again and again. Emma our server was such an amazing person, fast, professional and friendly. We will definitely come back again! Thank you Emma! read more

My husband, myself and our two son's went to celebrate my son's 16th birthday. Our waiter was terrible, he disappeared for long periods of time, barely checked in to see if anything was needed. We waited a very long time to place our order because he was nowhere to be seen. The pizza was good but the Summer Verde salad was so awful. The lettuce was limp, drowned in dressing and the chicken was rotisserie. No desire to return. Shocked this place gets the ratings it does. read more

Truly delish! 3rd time here and it was been consistently great in taste and service! Make a reservation or you'll be waiting a while but still worth it. Have tried multiple menu items and love their calamari! This time around the husband enjoyed the chicken milanese panini which comes with a side salad. I had the mustard spaghettini yet again! It's said to be their "Cacío E Pepe" but it tastes more like a carbonara to me, either way it's delicious and you should give it a try! Got the $17 "regular" portion but didn't finish it. Great idea to get the tasting portion ($10) along with something else. No kids menu but they do offer a kid-friendly butter style pasta if you ask your server or a cheese or pepperoni pizza which is always our choice. Dark atmosphere inside with tables and bar seating, or lovely outside seating! Pretty tightly spaced so if you're with a stroller - beware. Highchairs and booster seats are available for children. Family friendly but ideal for business casual meets or date nights. read more

When I think of Italian, I think of Prato. The menu is so well crafted and delicious. This is my absolute favorite restaurant in Orlando.

I had dinner at Prato at its peak-time on a Saturday night. I made the reservation 2 months in advance since it books up quickly and has a steady stream of customers throughout the night. The restaurant is beautiful but not pretentious and we were promptly seated. Our server, Julia was very knowledgeable and personable. The food was mostly really good and for the price, there was a good portion served. Highlights include the meatballs, pasta dishes, diavola pizza and both the desserts were phenomenal. The food did take a long time to come out and a couple of the appetizers were a miss but I still highly recommend checking out Prato. read more
