We've recently returned from a 10 night stay, and this restaurant was a very pleasant surprise. It really exceeded our expectations, the food was very good, the cocktails excellent and the service was very high level!

Pros:

The Boardwalk is always a pleasant place to spend the evening, and now we can also count on a great dinner.

Cons:

The only con is if you're using Disney transportation, and Epcot closes early you need to be be aware when making your ADR time.....or you are facing a trip to Disney Springs to catch another bus to your hotel.

Last week we ate at Trattoria al Forno. It was very disappointing. We had eaten there on previous trips and always had a good meal. However, this time it was not very good at all. I ordered the scallops with ravioli. The scallops were dry and overcooked and the ravioli which was doused in a mushroom base was just mush and did not have an appealing flavor at all. I couldn’t eat it. My husband had the lasagna and said it didn’t really have any flavor to it. We will not go back again.

Pros:

Atmosphere in the restaurant is nice.

Cons:

Quality of the food was not good, very overpriced.

We ate there in mid-November 2020. They brought us out their garlic bread, which is in tomato sauce, with cheese melted on top. My husband lobster ravioli with scallops, and I had Pasta Bolognese. Everything was very good, and our server, Fabi, was the best! I gave about half of my pasta to my husband because I was getting full. For dessert, he ordered cheesecake, and I had a few bites. We will definitely go back! It was great for our first night. We were tired from the trip, and we were able to take advantage of the new Wait List feature of the MDE app. We only had to wait a few minutes.

Pros:

Food, service, location in the hotel.

Cons:

Out of the way if you're not staying in one of the Epcot resorts.

We are from the Philly area with Italian backgrounds and this hit it out of the park. We’ve tried some other Italian in Disney (not all) and it has fallen flat.The garlic bread special was like garlic monkey bread and the meatballs were perfection. I’m not sure what other people have eaten here, but this is top tier!

Pros:

The flavors!!

Cons:

Nothing!

I want to start by saying if this was purely based off food, I would give it a 10/10 because our food was so delicious. So imagine how bad our service was for it to drop to 5/10. The host was awesome, our waiter was nice at first, but when he brought our food out we never saw him again! After we finished eating, we waited over half an hour with no one coming by again, so we stopped someone else (happened to be the manager) and asked for our check please. Then the manager left and didn't come back for another 20+ minutes. We asked if our waiter was still around and he said he would go check in the kitchen, after waiting 15 more minutes we were out of there. So sad because I really loved the food but will not be returning because of the experience.

Pros:

Food

Cons:

Service

Went week of Jan 11th and was meh. Similar to Olive Garden with rushed service and food quality. Overpriced for what you get. You can spend the same amount for a table service for higher quality or even signature (some).

Pros:

Picky eater friendly, family friendly

Cons:

Speedy service, ok food for price tag

We ate here at the end of September. Everyone we encountered was so nice and accommodating. It was a busy night but the waitstaff was hustling to take care of a lot of people. We ordered the garlic bread as an appetizer, it was excellent. My wife ordered the lasagna and said it was the best she’d ever had. My feelings were a little hurt because I think my lasagna is pretty good. I tried a bite of the lasagna and it was delicious. I ordered the shrimp pappardelle. It was very good. There were lots of shrimp with the dish and the bread service dipped in the sauce was great. We skipped dessert since we were stuffed. It was one of our favorite dinners of the week. We look forward to dining here again!

Pros:

Delicious food

Cons:

Some tables seem out of place.

-+* Hi y'all! Today we're talking/reviewing about Trattoria al Forno, the dinner restaurant at Walt Disney World's BoardWalk! We've been 4 times and we think we can review it now! So keep your arms, hands, feet, and legs inside well ya read this review (corny but we know :DD) -+*

-+PIZZA WINDOW+-

To the left of the restaurant, is a mobile order pizza window, which we haven't been to, but we assume it would be quite similar. If you go there though, the experience won't be the same. perhaps the window isn't for you, though 🙂

-+*HOW TO GET IN-+*

Here are the two ways to get into Trattoria Al Forno

*Get A Reservation

*Join The Walk-Up List

If you join the walk up list, or make a reservation, you'll have to wait outside. We used the pizza window chairs to sustain our time, and even bought a FastPass/Lightning Lane.

-+*THE FOOD-+*

The moment you've all been waiting for.. one simple review turned to be thousands of pages long.. (Sorry allears this prob was a pain to edit xD)

FOOD.

For the kiddos, the mickey cheese pizza is a good option! It's shaped like a
mickey and is a fairly good portion size! For the adults, the pasta dishes and lasagna are phenomenal! There is a ton of wine, sodas, and of course soft drinks :). Also definitely try the olive tamponade!

-+*THE SERVICE AND THE SCENERY-+*

Exceptional. The photos around the restaurant are pictures of Walt Disney going to Italian restaurants, and the staff are very nice. There might be a delay in food tho but its just cuz F A N C Y. :DD

-+*Overall-+*

Gud 10/10. Would have again

Goodbye everyone! The vehicle has come to a stop! (corny magic :DDD)

Pros:

evreything

Cons:

none
