Giovanni's Pizzeria & Kitchen is at 14177 Lake Nona Boulevard in Lake Nona Creekside, the Publix-anchored center at Lake Nona Boulevard and Boggy Creek Road. The Lake Nona Creekside restaurant opened in August 2019. Giovanni's is a family-owned Central Florida group with restaurants in Lake Nona, Lake Mary, Oviedo and Davenport. The menu covers hand-tossed pizza made with fresh dough daily, scratch-made pasta, calzones, subs, Italian entrees and a kids menu, with gluten-free options. Giovanni's serves wine and beer and offers dine-in, takeout, delivery and catering.

Giovanni's is the sit-down pizzeria on the west side of the community, next to the Publix at Lake Nona Creekside.

It is part of a family-run Central Florida group rather than a national chain. Here is what it serves and how it compares with Lake Nona's other pizza and Italian options.

Where is Giovanni's in Lake Nona?

Giovanni's is at 14177 Lake Nona Boulevard in Lake Nona Creekside, at the northwest corner of Lake Nona Boulevard and Boggy Creek Road.

Lake Nona Creekside is anchored by Publix and also holds a 7-Eleven, Salon Lofts and several services, with a SpringHill Suites hotel next door. It sits on the west side of Lake Nona, close to Laureate Park and Somerset Park.

What does Giovanni's serve?

Giovanni's serves hand-tossed pizza made with fresh dough daily, scratch-made pasta, calzones, subs and Italian entrees.

Pizzas come as specialty pies or build-your-own, and the kitchen also turns out baked pastas, chicken and eggplant entrees, meatball and cheesesteak subs, and a section of family-style favorites. There is a kids menu and gluten-free options.

The menu changes from time to time, so check the current version before you go.

Does Giovanni's serve wine and beer?

Yes. Giovanni's serves wine and beer alongside its food menu.

That makes it a relaxed sit-down pizza night rather than just a takeout counter. The brand also sells wine bundles with its online orders.

Does Giovanni's offer delivery and catering?

Yes. Giovanni's offers takeout, delivery and catering, from pickup trays to full set-up-and-serve events.

Pizza and baked pasta are among the easiest foods to cater for a party or office lunch. Order online for pickup or delivery.

Hours change, so check Giovanni's Lake Nona page before you go.

How does Giovanni's compare with Lake Nona's other pizza spots?

Giovanni's is the family-run pizzeria and Italian kitchen; Park Pizza & Brewing is the Town Center brewpub; Tomasino's is the New York-style slice shop on the south end.

Park Pizza & Brewing in Lake Nona Town Center pairs wood-fired pizza with house-brewed beer. Tomasino's Pizza at Eagle Creek is the neighborhood slice shop.

Giovanni's is the one with the full Italian menu, so it works when not everyone at the table wants pizza.
