We had lunch here in April 2018. Bread service was nice. We all enjoyed having a glass of wine in the Magic Kingdom. Service was stellar. 4 Caesar salads and 4 orders of spaghetti and meatballs. The food here doesn't usually get good reviews and I think that's unfair. It is not bland and the sauce doesn't not taste like it comes out of a can. My grandfather's mother came from Italy and never spoke a word of English - and this sauce comes close to the family recipe. And the meatballs were clearly not frozen but handmade, tender and full of flavor. I do wish they used fresh pasta but it was cooked correctly. The atmosphere is lovely, too. My father has a soft spot for this place and was just thrilled we were able to get a last minute Ressie. It remains a magical favorite.

It's been so long since I've visited Tony's, I didn't realize liquor is now served! Because reviews from various sources have been so negative, it hasn't even been a consideration when making ADRs. However, my wife was scooter-bound this trip, so to ensure a comfortable viewing position for the parade, I booked the Festival of Fantasy Dining package. The wait service was exceptional, as was the food; I think the pictures need updating. The paste e fagioli was better than Via Napoli's, and didn't look anything like what's currently shown on the AllEars menu page. We had the shrimp with risotto, and the gnocchi with shrimp; both dishes were fabulous. And then there was the dessert course! $54 for a three course dinner is very reasonable, and we had front row viewing positions in the flagpole circle. I'm glad we did this, and we may certainly return, just for the food (and perhaps a libation or two).
Pros:
The food and service are well above average.Cons:

My girlfriend and I ate here for dinner on 1/20/18 and I've eaten here by myself on past occasions. Over all, this is a so-so restaurant for being table service. If you like Lady and the Tramp, you'll probably like this place though the only giveaway that it's even related besides the name are the many framed scenes from the film. Otherwise you may want to rethink eating here. Here's the details:
- It can be loud. One of the large dinning areas has tile floor so you can imagine how much sound reverberates when it's packed with families and kids.
- Service was good when we went. Our waiter was attentive and came by our table several times, so no complaints there.
- Food. Here's where it gets interesting and is why I didn't list it as a pro or a con. It's hit or miss. Mostly miss. For starters, the menu isn't exactly diverse. It's your basic American Italian offerings and they are mostly on par with Olive Garden or a bit lower. I had the ravioli which was surprisingly good and I would recommend it though it's a small portion of 6 pieces. My girlfriend got the chicken parm and while not bad, it wasn't anything to write home about either. The tomato sauce was pretty average and I would bet it comes from a can. The complimentary bread and olive oil are OK but the oil to seasoning ratio is way off so you end up with an oil soaked loaf if you try to scoop up any herbs. I've had the caprese in the past which is also surprisingly good.
- Wait times. This place gets crowded early and I've witnessed families leaving who had reservations because they had to wait so long. On the other hand, I've always been seated within 10 minutes of checking in, so this seems to vary according to party size.

We had just eaten Italian food at Epcot the night before, so the food was merely average. But, the service we received was the best of the whole trip. Not only did they get our party of 8 seated a full hour before our reservation (we were wiped out) on a Christmas party night, but our server, Alfie, was delightful. The location is fantastic too. It might not be our first choice, but it will always be a reliable and welcome standby.

The Lady & The Tramp theme here made this a must try experience. Everything about the restaurant fits right in with the movie. Great selection of food & desserts. I had a regular pizza. My mother had the trio which she thinks was better than the lasagna from Via Napoli earlier in the trip and my husband ordered none other than the spaghetti and meatballs. The fountain/statue in the middle of the dining room really brings the whole atmosphere together. Everything about this experience was great. We will definitely keep this on our list of places to visit again.

Cute dining room with great themeCons:

We ate here on May 11 and enjoyed the theme and the food. My grandson really enjoyed his Spaghetti and Meatball. My daughter had the Baked Rigatoni and enjoyed it. She also had a cannoli. It was her first. My meal was the Chicken Parmigiana and the tiramisu. We do not like spicy Italian foods so this was great for us. Our waiter (Alfie) was the best we had all week.

We enjoyed our meal here. Two in our party had the flatbreads and they really enjoyed them. I thought the spaghetti and meatballs were just OK and folks loved the shrimp scampi, although my gluten free son did not like the gluten free pasta or the rolls much. This is interesting because he loves them at other Disney locations. It seems that the restaurants do not use the same brands or the same breads/pastas within the brands. I would expect an Italian restaurant to have something really tasty (Via Napoli's gluten free bread and pasta are great).

The food was marginal. Nothing exceptional. I would not return.
