Located adjacent to downtown Orlando in the Sodo District, a slice of New York-style pizza waits for you at John & John's Pizza. Taking over where Mediterranean Blue once stood, this pizzeria has quickly grown into a local favorite, offering an array of flavors and a family-like atmosphere. 
Menu
Stepping into John & John’s Pizza is like stepping into the Big Apple itself! The joint is filled with the smell of freshly baked crust. Their New York-style pizza is the stuff of legend, with hand-tossed crusts that have the perfect balance between crisp and chewy, and a variety of sauces and toppings that bursts with flavor.
But the menu extends far beyond their renowned New York-style pizza. Before diving into a slice, guests can choose from an array of starters, from crispy mozzarella planks to bruschetta. For those seeking a lighter option, a variety of salads provide a refreshing appetizer to the main event. And of course, the star of the show is their iconic New York-style pizza, with its thin, chewy crust and generous toppings.
But the offerings don't stop there – handheld favorites like the meatball parm and Cavo’s cheesesteak provide a delicious alternative for those craving something a bit more portable. With such a diverse and delectable menu, you can’t go wrong with anything!
