Tratto Modern Italian has been awarded “The Best Pizza” in the 2026 Orlando Sentinel Foodie Awards, one of the most respected recognitions in Central Florida’s dining scene.

Recognition From Orlando Sentinel’s Food Critic
In the 2026 Foodie Awards, Orlando Sentinel food critic acknowledged Tratto Modern Italian for delivering some of the most memorable pizza in the city.
In the article announcing the award, the critic wrote:
“Munoz is a dough whisperer. I eat these slices backwards. Every single time.”
That praise highlights the care and technique behind the dough — the foundation of every great pizza.
The review also celebrated one of the restaurant’s standout creations:
“Their mortadella and pesto offering satisfied this craving with aplomb… with a beautifully crisp slice of their mortadella-laden Detroit-style handiwork.”
From Detroit-style specialties to thin-crust classics, Tratto’s pizzas were praised for their crisp texture, flavor balance, and craftsmanship.
