Chianti's Pizza Pasta - Longwood

We started with the mini meatball appetizer, which came with four delightful small slices of bread—simply amazing! I would say these were probably the best meatballs I've had locally, and the bread was fantastic. Next, we had garlic knots that accompanied our meals. More bread, but absolutely worth the carbs! I ordered the cheese ravioli, which was quite good, although it had a bit more sauce than I prefer. That said, I'm not a fan of heavy sauces in general, so that's just a personal choice. My husband chose the linguine and clams, which he liked, but it had a strong wine flavor that he doesn't particularly enjoy. I'm not sure if that's the typical flavor profile or if it wasn't cooked down enough, but it wasn't a major issue—again, just a matter of preference. For dessert, we each had something sweet: one strawberry cheesecake and one chocolate mousse cake. Both were excellent! However, the standout part of our experience was definitely the service. At the end of our meal, another staff member checked in on us to ensure we had enjoyed everything. We've been wanting to try Chianti's for a while and decided to go on a whim tonight, and we're so glad we did. We will definitely be back to explore more of the menu. I did forget to take photos, except for the garlic knots and desserts! **Parking:** There is a fairly large parking lot shared with other shops in the area. **Dietary Restrictions:** They offer an entire gluten-free menu.

Why have a restaurant if you are going to buy frozen food and just throw it in the microwave? The quality of food was beyond disgusting. The moment we received our COLD appetizer I wanted to leave. I was nervous for the main course. I sent back our frozen meatball dish and they brought it back cold again. The meatballs were a joke. I felt like I was eating out of a can that they just threw on a plate. Everything was a disappointment. I can't believe I spent $86 there! SAVE YOUR MONEY AND GO SOMEWHERE ELSE THAT CARES ABOUT QUALITY!

While on my way to Daytona Beach, I decided to stop for some pizza, and I’m glad I did! The pizza was fantastic and reminded me of the authentic New York style. Our server, Matthew, was exceptional—very attentive and provided top-notch customer service. He was a humble young man doing a great job. Keep up the fantastic work, Matthew! I’ll definitely be back and hope to see you soon. I highly recommend this place; give it a try—you won’t be disappointed!

Great prices, and you feel like you’re eating in a fine dining restaurant, but without the high prices. We generally have the “Pizza For One” at 10.99 for 6 slices and it includes 1 free drink, and garlic knots. (During lunch time 11-3. Great jazz music always playing! Great service!Food: 5/5

The food blew us away; everything was incredibly delicious! Without a doubt, the standout dish was the Chicken Gorgonzola. The salads were so fresh, and the Pepperoni Pinwheels were a delightful treat! In our opinion, this is the best Italian restaurant in Orlando and truly the finest food we've ever had. Thank you, Chanti's! You’ve officially become our favorite restaurant, and we can't wait to return!
