The pastries here are so good! No need to ever eat dessert anywhere else in Disney springs. Highlights for me was the pistachio eclair and opera cake but everything we tried was great. Can't wait to go back.

My daughter and I ate lunch here on 7/8/16 and had a good meal. We went for a late lunch around 3pm and both ordered the lunch special for $26--which was a lot of food!
Included with the lunch we both got miso soup and salad which was lightly dressed with a ginger/onion dressing which I thought was great. We got california roll which was good but standard, a dumpling (good), kimchi, and a chicken shu mai which I didn't care for. My choice of entree of the braised black cod which was delicious. My daughter wished she had ordered that instead of a veggie/tofu dish which was kind of bland. I also ordered a mocktail to drink because it was so hot outside. I got the Blushing Dragon which was really refreshing and sooo beautiful. Service was not over the top but adequate and all and all I'd go back again but probably try some other options

This is the quintessential theme restaurant, where interior design, menus, wait staff in character, all come together for an experience that's more like an attraction than a meal.
No nonsense comfort food is delicious.

A total ExperienceCons:

My group of 8 had dinner here on June 29th. Delicious is an understatment! It was voted hands down by all 8 the best meal of the week. We had an outstanding server Dale. He gave fabulous food recommendations and wine pairing suggestions. It was a very unrushed, relaxed meal in a beautiful setting. We had the calamari and mussels for appetizers. There was plenty of delicious broth to use for dipping the bread!! Several ordered the chicken parm and really enjoyed it. Our other entrees included the eggplant rollatini (out of this world!), polpetta gigante, the linguini and a caprese salad. Again, everything tasted so fresh and delicious. Dale informed us they make their own mozzarella!! Unfortunately, we were all much too full for dessert- maybe next time because we definitely will be back! So happy to find this hidden gem at the Boardwalk!

It's another full theme dining experience, threaded by environment, ethnic food and staff. I'm surprised this is not a Signature restaurant.

This is a great pizza parlor. If you want Italian dishes, go next door to Tutto Italia. You must sit in the main room, don't settle for the side room annex. Very Italian staff adds to authenticity.
Pros:
Great for pizzaCons:

Disappointing and not a memorable dining experience. The interior is comfortable Metro Italian. The food not up to Disney standards. The Margherita Pizza was a bit soggy and the Polpetta Gigante dry. Our server lacked the subtle knowledge of Italian cuisine.
Pros:

I was so excited to try this new place but it was a big disappointment! We ate here on June 28th and it was very busy! We waited for about 10- 15 mins past our reservation time before our buzzer went off but we were a party of 8 so we expected it. However, the hostess then told us to stand and wait for a few but she forgot about us so after about 10-15 more minutes I went and reminded her that we were still waiting. We were seated immediately with no explanation. Our server was great and quickly took our drink order and answered any questions. The majority of the meals were okay, nothing special. Our entrees included ribs, fish tacos, shrimp and grits and the NY steak. My filet sliders were terrible- very fatty, poor quality and the lobster bisque was inedible. I just don't get the signature rating. It's super crowded, really noisy, mediocre food and pricey!! I don't mind spending money on a good meal but this was nothing special. The margaritas were good but at $15 a pop they should be!! This was definitely the worst meal of the week- won't be back!
