5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

This my first time at Il Pescatore Restaurant. My co-workers brought me there for lunch and I was thrilled to find an Italian Restaurant with great bolognese sauce. It is the best (outside my home). Being an Italian-American, I am fussy with pasta sauces, but Il Pescatore was great..... The garlic bread with mozzarella was great too. I will recommend this restaurant to all my friends and relatives. .

Pros: Food, Service, Price.

Cons: I don't live closer to Orlando

My wife and I went to Il Pescatore not expecting much, but we were blown away! They could easily charge twice as much as they do, as I've not had better italian food anywhere in Central Florida. I've been back a few times and each time ordered one of the specials. The house vino is ok and they keep it coming. So far, we've been there four or five times and we always leave wondering how the heck it is so inexpensive to eat that well, with leftovers too! The owners are pretty nice. She greets you at the door and he comes out to visit after he creates your meal to make sure it is to your liking. For dessert, there's no better cannoli in town!

Pros: Everything you come to expect when eating out. Free wine if there's a wait to sit.

Cons: none come to mind.

I have never been dissapointed by Il Pescatore. I have frequented this restaurant for the last several months and have never had a bad experience. The staff is professional and friendly, the food is full of taste and comes in large portion sizes, and the atmosphere is cozy. One of the best tips that I can give to someone going to Il Pescatore is to never make up your mind before you have heard that days Specials!

Ironically enough when most people return from Orlando they are talking about theme parks or rides...well our entire entourage was still talking about our dinner at Il Pescatore. We had outstanding service. The food was incredible and the atmosphere was simply charming. Our server was great in recomending choices for entrees and wine! I will be sure to visit here everytime I go to Orlando. Each dish was different (there were 6 of us) and each one tasted fresh and delicious. Portions were HUGE for the price. I highly recommend this restaurant!

Pros: Food, Service , Price

Cons: Too far from Atlanta

I'm with chemmie, the place is really overrated. We had made reservations over the phone, but when we got there, there was no record of it. There were only 2 other tables seated and the hostess put us way back directly across from the kitchen!!! Our waiter did not give us the daily specials. (I know there are specials because I overheard another waitress at the next table.) Our salads and entrees came entirely too fast. Withing 10-15 minutes. The chicken alfredo was pretty good as was the spaghetti with plain sauce, but unless you like large, fresh, raw mushrooms in your calzone, don't order it. They don't offer sweetened tea, only unsweetened and if you want dessert, you have to ask for it. The tiramasu was very plain and wasn't served with chocolate syrup! The best thing going for them was the garlic bread.....

Editor's Review

Quaint, cozy bistro offers authentic Itialian cuisine, including hearty pasta dishes, huge salads, pizzas, calzones and tiramisu.  See the full editorial review.
