After being quite impressed by Il Mulino's Italian offerings we decided to continue our journey to find the best Italian Restaurant in Walt Disney World by taking a ten minute walk to the Boardwalk. We've previously had spectacular experiences eating breakfast at Trattoria al Forno but dinner had always eluded us. Many Walt Disney World fans appreciate the cuisine here and consider it better Italian food than what's available at Epcot. We provide a full tour of the restaurant, going over the story that encapsulates the dining experience, the architecture and provide detailed reviews on some of their most notable dishes. At the end we go over our thoughts, comparing our experience here to Il Mulino's and seeing if Trattoria al Forno became our favorite Italian Ristorante in Walt Disney World.

Thanks for the great video once again. I’m not too familiar with the broadwalk restaurants. Love the stories you bring us with your videos. Sets you apart from other vloggers and I really like that. TFS.

@ThemeParkFoodies 10 месяцев назад

Of course and thanks so much for the kind words. While we do take inspiration from vlogs we're fans of, we try our best to be original and have our own style. It means a lot that you notice that 🙂. We weren't familiar with the Boardwalk until we moved here. It's one of our favourites now though.

Worked there for 5 years! Will always be a piece of me! The heart and soul of the restaurant is about to cross the rainbow bridge. It's a pretty rough day for us from Trat.

@thickchip2694 5 месяцев назад

With that said, you sat in station 3. I bet you had a fabulous server named Hollie

@thickchip2694 5 месяцев назад

N lastly, as far as the menu goes, yall are 3 years too late. The crew we had pre covid was awesome. The crew we had at the beginning of the return was the best group I've ever had the chance to work with. Since we were preforming so well for a mid level restaurant, people started getting promotions left n right. Most the the chefs have been there for about a year n the front of house managers even less time than them. The 2021 Chicken Parm was a 10/10 dish

We were living in NY at that time. We've always heard amazing things though!

@keepamerica2astrong280 10 месяцев назад

As stated before, Italian food is the best food in the world hands down. Great review guys...

@ThemeParkFoodies 10 месяцев назад

I've said before, even bad Italian food is good food 😆. This Italian food was pretty solid though 🙂. Thank you!

@adamst.pierre5753 10 месяцев назад

Nice review! It's nice to see the menus coming back. The last time we ate there it was during or shortly after covid times and there were no menus.

@ThemeParkFoodies 10 месяцев назад

Thank you 😊 I’m glad menus have made their return, it’s just not the same using your phone 😂

@beth12725 10 месяцев назад

When I went we asked for bread and they gave us amazing bread with a dipping oil that had whole cloves of roasted garlic.

@ThemeParkFoodies 10 месяцев назад

Ahhh good to know, I wish they had offered! I always feel awkward asking for things. Did they charge you for it ?

@ladybelle6126 10 месяцев назад

I prefer I'Mulino as well. Its more authentic Italian and the service is always good, and they have lemoncello at the end of your meal.

@ThemeParkFoodies 10 месяцев назад

Il Mulino blew us away and our servers were incredible.

@user-le5xp7po3t 6 месяцев назад

So sorry you had a bad experience. Check out Travel with Disney for Trattiria. 3 times but it looks wonderful. Breakfast Tiramasu French toast with ham 13.00. Poached eggs with hollandaise sauce and steak and eggs. They raved about it. Like your videos. Keep Making them.

@ThemeParkFoodies 6 месяцев назад

Thanks so much for watching. I don’t think it was bad per say, just not our favorite. We enjoyed breakfast 😊

@cosmo4u1 10 месяцев назад

Jay, the look on your face was all that needed to be said about that dessert. 15:32

@ThemeParkFoodies 10 месяцев назад

Jay is not a light dessert kinda guy 😂

@joannemillard1934 10 месяцев назад

Loving the shirt Jay !🤩

@ThemeParkFoodies 10 месяцев назад

he is styling and profiling!

@timandkt 10 месяцев назад

It shows how ignorant I am of Italian food (and culture) that I had to look up what ‘Trattoria’ meant in order to find out why it’s included in so many Italian restaurant titles 😂 I love the open kitchen design, with the chefs bustling about! I’m with Jay on sauce ratio, although I know he likes a more savory sauce while I prefer a sweeter one - we both need a saucy pizza. Sounds like Il Mulino probably keeps the crown, there! Shame that the chicken parm didn’t “wow” here, but dessert looked like a big win! Definitely nice to have a sliding scale of casual vs dressy dining near the parks and the resorts. Another one to try….someday! 😁 Thanks for sharing, guys!

@ThemeParkFoodies 10 месяцев назад

Sauce flavor is subjective, the love of sauce is universal. This pizza was good Il Mulino's was just better. Obviously two different experiences though. Sam's dessert was definitely a star. Had the dinner and a show aspect. Plus it tasted great. We agree, it's nice to have differing dining experiences and options. This was obviously a bit different from Il Mulino but both cater to different audiences. We're happy to have both 🙂. Thank you!

@henrypfeiffer5549 3 месяца назад

Might want to try Ravello!

@ThemeParkFoodies 3 месяца назад

It's on the list- have heard wonderful things!

@roseellenberger9891 10 месяцев назад

Thanks for the review! My family is from Long Island as well and we definitely know what authentic Italian tastes like! We dined here in January and we did receive a bread service with a delicious garlic infused oil. I think my husband asked so maybe you need to request it?! We are going back next month so I guess we will see! Italian families know you need that bread to soak up the sauce!

@ThemeParkFoodies 10 месяцев назад

LI has some of the BEST Italian food. Ahh, someone mentioned they asked for it too. Def doing that next time. I grew up on sauce sandwiches! Thanks for watching 😊

@toyman70 10 месяцев назад

did you notice any work being done to the stand on the boardwalk thats going to become the corndog stand?

@ThemeParkFoodies 10 месяцев назад

Great question! To be honest, we didn't look but didn't notice anything. I feel like that could be a quick turnover. We can't wait for that stand. Blue Ribbon in Disneyland was Sam's first corndog 🙂.

@melindaglover3291 10 месяцев назад

Well Sam, at first sight I thought your entree was a complete miss. After your observation and your comments I think you might have been generous with your rating. My overall thought is this might be a nice place for drinks and Apps. I still would like to try this restaurant in the future.

@ThemeParkFoodies 10 месяцев назад

They have a decent sauce and it didn’t taste bad at all, but for me though it’s definitely not traditional Italian. Jay did love his lasagna though! I would definitely chose Il Mulino over this in a heart beat.

@penknee4yrthoughts 10 месяцев назад

Thank you for your honest review. We were there just 2 weeks ago and I told my hubby I didn't like it. I was born and raised in NYC/ NJ. I just know... I told him you guys were not gonna like it. We will be going to Mulinos next time. A good pizza is when you can fold it and walk with it. Maybe even use a napkin to pull up all the grease.

@ThemeParkFoodies 10 месяцев назад

It's definitely not authentic NY or NJ Italian food. I appreciate the detail, atmosphere and I did enjoy my meal but as a tri-state native I agree I can tell the difference. We still had a great time though 🙂. Definitely recommend Il Mulino! I do want to say that I think we have better pizza in NY or NJ BUT Il Mulino was, to me, the best Pizza in Disney. Good foldable crust and has a little napkin grease 😆. I hope it's just as good on your visit!

@trustfam7021 10 месяцев назад

Another great review! I’m Italian and in North Jersey (NYC metro area) so this speaks to my heart ❤❤ detailed and amazing review always! Question: Favorite Gelato on Disney property? Thanks guys!

@trustfam7021 10 месяцев назад

Last visit I stayed at Beach Club so this was not far, this review has told me that next time YES 😂

@ThemeParkFoodies 10 месяцев назад

Thank you so much!! We love our tri-state subs because you know where we're coming from with our opinions. We haven't had too much gelato to say for sure- but the Vivoli il Gelato in Disney Springs and the Gelateria Toscana in Epcot are decent options.

@anthonydepietro7328 10 месяцев назад

I agree with your assessment that I'll Mulino is the better Italian option. I love Trattoria for breakfast bit I definitely go with IL Mulino for dinner. I very much liked the arancini and would maybe do Trattoria if I just wanted some appetizers and a glass of wine.

@ThemeParkFoodies 10 месяцев назад

I agree, the entrees were not the stars here but it was still an enjoyable meal and I would definitely have the arancini again!!

@jenniedub 10 месяцев назад

Thanks so much for the thoughtful review! It was great to hear your feedback on the pizza in particular! We are staying at Beach Club soon, and I was wondering if I should take my kids here for pizza on arrival day rather than try to get a reservation at Via Napoli and take up time on an EPCOT day.

@ThemeParkFoodies 10 месяцев назад

Of course! Thanks for watching 🙂. In our opinion Via Napoli is a tad better. Our favorite pizza is actually at Il Mulino though, which is probably just as far as Al Forno from where you're staying. All are great options 🙂. Hope you have the best trip.

@jenniedub 10 месяцев назад

@@ThemeParkFoodies would you recommend Il Mulino for a family with 5 kids ages 2-12 though? 😬

@lisaglass8850 10 месяцев назад

Thanks for another great video! I love that you are doing the "Italian series" of food :). Would you say Il Mulino is worth it for just pizza, appetizers and drinks? Truly enjoyed the video :)

@ThemeParkFoodies 10 месяцев назад

You are so welcome- it's definitely a tasty series! I would say yes to Il Mulino- the cheeseboard and pizza are worth it!!! Meet ya there ;)

I miss when we could mobile order here. Did you notice if theres a bar in there?

@ThemeParkFoodies 10 месяцев назад

I didn't notice bar seating but Abracadar is connected to this restaurant and you can get the pizza and a few other lounge bites there. Il Mulino at the Swan has bar and lounge seating.
