METRO ESPRESSO PIZZA – Italian
Park yourself on East Central Boulevard and the routine is obvious: a Sicilian slice, a basket of garlic knots, and a sidewalk table while downtown Orlando goes by. Metro Espresso Pizza runs a broad Italian-American kitchen — margherita and meat-lover pies, calzones, house lasagna, carbonara, Philly cheesesteaks, tiramisu to finish. Portions land family-sized, and the garlic knots are the thing people order without reading the menu. Friday and Saturday the doors stay open into the small hours, which makes it a reliable last stop after a night out. Cheerful, unfussy, priced like a neighbourhood joint.
