Oreganatta

Just go to Cis Cis pizza. This a bad replication of it. They even have the crappy arcade machines you never win at. Quality is little lower than Cis Cis. I guess at least they sell beer.

I thought this place had so much potential that was wasted. The pasta was not to bad, but the pizza was very limited, the garlic bread had no garlic, the cheese bread had next to no cheese, and it was all very dry. The deserts were just small plastic shot glasses with frozen watery coffee and whipped cream. It was ok for one time, but now that I ate there I will probably not go back. The selection was too small. For an Italian place I was expecting so much more.
The photos are also very deceiving as well.

Although the choice of this buffet is limited, I was served an amazing dish of Chicken Alfredo. It was beyond fantastic…

We came here twice on our trip to Universal, our hotel was right across the street so we went for the convenience.
Ambience: the have window stickers that make it look like there are people eating by the windows. Other reviewers think it’s tacky but I personally think it’s cute ! The restaurant itself looks newer, with a lot of cute decorations on the walls and the floors and booths being new.
Staff: the staff is super friendly, they greet you right when you walk in and thank you for eating here on your way in and out .
The food: AWESOME salad bar with so many fresh ingredients. They have about 4 or 5 soups, I personally liked the broccoli and cheese soup. They have a pasta station where the lady behind the counter heats up your pasta sauce for you. They are stingy on the ingredients you want in the pasta though, the spoon is very small so when you ask for mushrooms you get about one that is just cut up. Other than that it taste good and you get what you pay for! $ 8.99 dinner after walking around the park all day is awesome

Tourist trap coffee tasted like water, only choice of meat was chicken, soups were tasteless. Even the cheesy bread had no cheese. All drinks were $ 2.60 even water. 4 noodle choices and 4 sauce choices. My son thought they had little cups of ghellato, turns out it’s just whipped topping with flavorings on top.

What a waste of my time and money. This place sucks… the pizza are horrible!!! Cici’s pizza is 10 times better than this dump! These people aren’t even Italians!!! I’ll never come back. Please don’t go to this restaurant.
Go to Cici’s pizza. Save your money and time.
I’ll guarantee this place won’t be in business for another year. MARK MY WORDS!!!

This place is amazing. They make you whatever pasta you want and pizza customized. Carlos the manager and the lady making the pizzas were great ! Really good costumer service and the food is real Italian food which I did not expect, it was very tasty. Also they have beer and wine for sale which is lovely you can drink wine with your pasta. And the dessert is amazing. Very good over all I will def be coming back here. Also they play good
Music, really good atmosphere. Also the tomato soup is amazing. I loved it all

The ambiance and pizza is alright but the pasta tastes funny and it will make you extremely nauseous. Better choice to just go to the Applebee’s next door.

Horrible place! Please spend your $ 8.99 (close to $ 10 after tax somewhere else). My friends and I went here thinking it was going to be a good place to try out, and first off, there selection of foods is very small and limited to pizza and pasta. In Which the pasta tasted (Alfredo) like cardboard or dirty feet. The pizza was ok but for $ 9-​$ 10 I rather get a better pizza somewhere else like Pizza Hut, papa johns or even little Caesars ($ 5). Everyone in my party has had upset stomachs and felt nauseous after leaving this place. I repeat horrible food and service! DO NOT GO!

Passed this place driving down International drive and figured we’d give it a chance, now here I am wishing we hadn’t. The food was hit or miss. The pizza was okay. Salad bar was decent. The pasta tasted like feet, but like, feet that hadn’t been washed in days. The «deserts» were plastic shot glasses filled with a squirt of whipped cream topped with either crushed Oreos, 3 marshmallows, sprinkles or some cinnamon thing. For $ 10 find another place close by as international drive is full of great food options. I have been on the toilet for 20 min now, thanks to this Italian restaurant.

I wish I could give this restaurant zero stars. This was a complete waste of time and money. The noodles were cold and the sauces were watery. The pizza was eatable but the garlic rolls were like eating plastic. Don’t even try the fake dessert cups! Do yourself a favor and go somewhere else

This place is very average. I went hoping for more than I actually received. The salad bar was pretty good, full of variety and even the soups were not bad. That can make you a pizza if you order which is something I liked. However, they only offer chopped up chicken thigh for the pasta, they do have 4 different sauces but the same protein. Also, the bread was hard and seem to not be very fresh. The dessert is definitely not seem completely homemade. It’s store bought cookies and the same piece of cake/​brownie prepared in different way. Soncerly is kind off like a cross between Cici’s and Sweet Tomatoes but falls short to both. They have potential if they fix a few things and better the quality of their food and make more variety. On the other hand, the servers was nice.

Not as advertised. Waste of money. So bad we left hungry and had to go somewhere else to eat. Only 2 types of pizza. Cheese & pepperoni, very bland. Some salad toppings with stale croutons. Pasta with watery sauce and chewy dark meat chicken.

Decent price salad bar really good soup’s ok unfortunately the pizza leaves a lot to be desired not much flavor asked for pepperoni and sausage and got pepperoni and ham apparently they did not offer Sausage you would think they would have told me that instead of making me a pepperoni and ham but no pepperoni and ham it is and I do not like ham the other pizzas on the buffet look like they’ve been there all day

Driving by, you might be irked because the building’s architecture feels familiar. It bothered us till we realized this resturant is an upcycled Wendy’s complete with a bricked up drive through window.
They have stencils all around the glass that give it a first glance feel of being busy & bustling but that’s an illusion. I think a little bit deceitful as well. But we were looking for a cheap buffet & we found it! It’s cheap it was $ 8−9/person before drinks, so not to bad.
TBH, this is not really an Italian buffet. It’s a Portuguese buffet with an Italian aspects that are not genuine. I have mixed emotions about that. To the reviewer below, I think it’s better than Cici’s because at least this place was clean.
The décor, however, is definitely interesting. It’s like someone walked in, found the most odd textbook case of Walmart Americana & threw it up on the walls randomly. They have an interesting way of spelling «bon appétit» as «bom apetite» — I’m just saying if you’re going to put random words on a wall or phrases from different languages in a tourist part of town, you probably should spell them right. Also, they did correctly spell «buen provecho» but there’s something awkward about the «u» — it’s a really obvious «c» flipped to make it look like a «u». I just don’t understand the Americana décor in a Portuguese/​Italian resturant.
My husband is on a high protein diet, so he loved the salad bar — tons of good veggies. They had this massive amount of seasoned spicy marinated chicken & bbq chicken. This was not too bad. There is also this lovely red & green pepper, onion, & cucumber salad that was really refreshing.
The Italian aspect was meh. I didn’t know Italian consisted of dry pizza & over cooked pasta. Wasn’t too interested. We came in at around 3−4pm on a Sunday & there was one guy be hind the register & one guy cooking the food — for a buffet. So you can see how quickly the pizza gets made. The garlic rolls were okay.
The deserts were really bad. I imagine that’s the kind of deserts served in prison.
TL;DR — salad bar has a great veggie selection. Chicken is not too bad. Deserts = prison food. No idea why it’s called an «Italian» buffet??? And what is with the decorations?

Go to Cicis. You’ll get more and pay less. Came in at 9pm (not that late) and all they had was cheese and pepperoni pizza. Soup wasn’t even anywhere near warm. They have pictures of all this food that they claim to have (fish tenders, fries, toasted ravioli, etc.) They had NONE of that. No wonder there are barely any Unilocal photos that actually include FOOD. Don’t waste your money.

As Stefan might say, this place has Everything, and everything you could want in a modestly priced pizza/​pasta buffet, you will find at Oregannata’s. The atmosphere is relaxed and family friendly, the location is convenient to Idrive hotels and attractions. The salad bar has fresh and premium ingredients, which you can also supply to the pizza chef to create your own custom personal pizza, with a choice to add pepperoni or sausage. The pizza buffet is not ridiculously large and is often replenished, so the crusts stay light and crispy. The pasta chef cooks your choice of pasta and sauce to order, with additional garlic, spices and cheese to taste, and there are fresh breads to choose from. Oregnnata’s may be in competition with places that trough-​feed you like you’re in a holding pen for animals, but the quality of the dishes and the attention in the service more than makes up for a smaller variety. The desserts, including cinnamon rolls, chocolate cookies that are kept slightly warmed up, or fancy whipped cream and fruity desserts served in mini martini glasses are a classy touch. Lest I forget, you can recover from gorging on carbs by chilling and enjoying the free wi-​fi, write a nice Unilocal review to help out this budding restaurant, and sign up to their mailing list to get a free beverage on your next visit, which I will definitely be partaking of. For a reasonably priced and enjoyably memorable dinner out for your family, I strongly recommend Oregnnata’s.

This is a great place to have dinner. Excellent buffet options. Great service, great staff, food is delicious. They have a variety of salads, pastas, chicken, soups, deserts. You should stop by and try it.

Food was good and very fresh, everything was made on the spot. Dessert selection was very good. Place was very nice, bathrooms were very clean. Also the staff was super helpful. Definitely a family style place to take a break from the usual buffet choices.
