Restaurant of the Month: Winter Garden Pizza
Company
Located in the heart of Historic Downtown Winter Garden
along the West Orange Trail, is a full service casual Italian
Restaurant with a whole lot of heart. With fantastic service
& hospitality and a menu chock full of delicious items, the
Pizza Company has developed a great following with local
residents and visitors alike.
Their mouth-watering New York style pizza has won multiple
awards in the Central Florida area including Best Pizza in
both Orlando Magazine’s Dining Awards and Cityvoter’s
A-List, as well as in WESH-2’s Top 10 Best Pizza Places in
Central Florida. In addition to their glorious pie options, the
restaurant offers calzone, Stromboli, a variety of sandwiches,
various different pasta dishes, as well as lasagna, chicken or
eggplant parmesan, and other baked dishes. All sauces are
made from scratch and each dish and pie are made to order
--- even the mozzarella sticks are homemade. The soup and
salad bar is always fresh and always a winner (and the Greek
dressing is divine!). Dinners start at $7.95 and top out at
$11.95. The kids menu ranges from $2.95 - $3.95 including a
drink. The Pizza Company also serves wine and beer, with a
few beers on tap from Orlando Brewing.
What also helps to make this gem even more of a favorite
for locals and guests is the friendly and attentive wait staff.
Even at their busiest, you can be sure you and your party will
be greeted and served with a smile and an air of hospitality
which welcomes you “home.”
Winter Garden Pizza Company also hosts a variety of
events. Each Tuesday at 2pm, guests gather to play a few
rounds of Bingo. Recently, Jake of the Neverland Pirates
stopped in to entertain kids, and Cinderella stopped in for
a special Sunday Brunch. Each Wednesday evening is kid’s
night (where children eat free with a paid adult entrée),
with a strolling balloon artist and specials for children.
On Saturday, April 25th, the Pizza Company is hosting
“Brunch with the Snow Sisters.” Elsa and Anna of Frozen
fame, will be on hand during two seatings – one at 9am
and another at 10:30am. This 60-minute dining experience
will feature a great breakfast buffet with the snow sisters
visiting each table to say hello and take photographs. Stay
