If you haven't figured it out, we're inside Tutto Italia now! I vaguely remember eating here with my family years ago, but haven't been here in over a decade. Did this place exist ten years ago? Not sure, and not researching it.
Anyway, it was at this restaurant that our love for olives was born:
We asked the waitress what kind of olives they were, since they were DELICIOUS. I mean, really, really good. And I wasn't a non-black olive fan back then. Either was Kristin. Well, we are now.
I didn't understand what the waitress said, but I believe they were Cerignola olives (thanks, DISboards!). Since then, we've come to discover that Castlevetrano olives are even better. But once again, thanks to Disney, a new love is born!
BTW, as for the beer, I got the Extra Hop Pilsner. It did have Extra Hop, but not Excessive Hop. I like Excessive Hop. But Extra Hop is better than nothing. Decent beer, but nothing special.
We also got bread:
And slanted restaurant shots:
And family love:
And whatever this is:
Ok, we didn't really get that last one. It was on the divider by our table. But we did get meals:
I got the Gnochetti:
Very good, but I have a hard time getting excited over Italian food, unless it's calamari (tentacles only, please!). Kristin got the Ravioli:
Dylan got the Lasagna:
And Emily got a meal of Mozarella Sticks:
Emily had some issues with the cheese, however:
I think she got through it ok.
Meals were good, but not sensational. Fun time, good food, but not one I'd rave about. But again, it takes A LOT to get me to rave about Italian food. It just seems to be too easy to duplicate at home.
Dessert was a different story. I got the Chocolate Cherry Custard, which was wonderful:
My notes say that Kristin got the Tiramisu, Dylan got the Nutella Cheesecake, and Emily got...something. But I'll be darned if I can match those to the photos. See if you have better luck:
All were top-notch! Well, Tutto finished strong. Still, not a top-fiver, but definitely enjoyable.
