Italian Garden Pizzeria now is closed

The Italian Garden Pizzeria & Restaurant in Winter Garden has permanently shut its doors. 

The pizzeria has been a staple around the community for more than 20 years, offering New York style pizza and authentic Italian food. 

“After many wonderful years serving this community, today marks the final day of Italian Garden,” the pizzeria posted to its Facebook Wednesday, Dec. 31. “As we close this chapter, we’re happy to share that a new restaurant, Giovanny’s, will be taking over this location.” 

Giovanny’s Pizzeria of Winter Garden serves hand-tossed and scratch-made pizzas as well as fresh authentic Italian dishes with multiple locations already in place around Central Florida.

“From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for allowing us to serve you,” the Italian Garden Pizzeria said in its statement. 

“We will forever be grateful for the memories we shared with this incredible community.”
