Favorite/Best Italian Restaurant

What is your Favorite and/or Best Italian Restaurant for Italian dishes not pizza? Which ones have raviolis on the kids menu? What is your favorite dish?

I feel as if nobody here talks about Terralina Crafted Italian. I understand that not everyone goes to Disney Springs and when most people do they probably tend to favor a few other restaurants, but I went two years ago before the re-brand and enjoyed it a lot. Has anybody been there after the re-brand that can give insight?

It was ok (probably on par with what Portobellos was). No regrets for trying it but we haven’t rushed back either.

I absolutely LOVE the pasta at Via Napoli. Incredibly delicious. Sorry, i havent been to Il Mulino, but i hear good things.

We are trying Trattoria al Forno this Sunday night for the first time; hoping for a great experience!

Il Mulino out of the ones I have tried which would also include Mama Melrose, Tony's, Via Napoli and Trattoria al Forno.

I don’t know about the kids menu but we love Tutto Italia and Tony’s. I have gotten lasagna or eggplant parm at Tutto Italia. At Tony’s I have gotten spaghetti and meatballs or chicken parm and love the tiramisu dessert.

Actually, BiCE at the Portofino Resort at Universal is better than any of the ones you listed. Barring that, I'd do Il Mulino.

I've never heard of Terralina. And we stay at Saratoga Springs so I thought I was pretty familiar with the DS restaurants.

It’s the remodeled Portobello. It’s OK, but not as good as the other places to get pizza or pasta at DS.

Another vote for Bice. I wish Il Mulino was better. The original in NYC is one of my favorite restaurants in the world. The one at the Swan is fine, but nowhere near the quality of the original.

Have not tried Terralina Crafted Italian, but none of the others are close to Il Mulino.

In all fairness to Il Mulino, the Orlando door is branded as their more casual Trattoria Il Mulino, whereas the original Il Mulino New York is a fine dining ristorante. There was a Trattoria Il Mulino in NYC, but it closed.

I haven't eaten at the Orlando BiCE, but I really enjoyed the one here in Chicago (now closed).

We have always had good food and service at Mama Melrose

Definitely Tutto Italia. We have always had a good experience there especially the time with Pop Boy. My kids love the free refills for soda and this guy couldn't be stopped. He kept filling their glasses until they floated away.

Tony's is not Italian. Might be themed Italian, but that isn't Italian food. Via Napoli is the best pizza I've ever had. Anything else I've had on the menu has been very good. I've read very good things about Maria and Enzos. Gonna try it this summer.

Does Il Mulino have ravioli for children?

Very true.
Going to BiCE in 10 days and looking forward to it. As much as I enjoy a lot of the WDW restaurants, even Il Mulino isn't close to BiCE. Just an amazing experience. Just a bit excited.

I'm excited for you! We skipped it the last time we were in the World, so it's definitely on our list for December. Their pastas have been exceptional; the wine list superb; and the osso buco I had there last time is perhaps the best I've ever had. Enjoy!

Isn't BICE at Universal?
