Good Morning!

We currently have a dinner reservation for Coral Reef but after talking we are thinking about going Italian.......I would love to hear reviews of Via Napoli & Tutto Italia ...

Thanks!
 
Havent been to Tutto since it was called Alfredo's LOL

I was at Via Napoli earlier this month and i thought it was good. From NJ and I have Italian heritage. I won't say it was the best Italian food i ever at but the pizza was good and so was the Veal Parmagiana. Had the rice balls for an app and the deserts were also very good, left full and would go back.
 
No experience here, but I'm also curious. We're planning to eat somewhere in Italy this time.. really hoping it's not like your typical Olive Garden though.
 
Have been to both within the past year and have the following feedback:

Dinner at Tutto is fine, but in my opinion, not much better than Olive Garden. (I am Italian and have traveled to Italy, so it's tough to impress me with Italian food). Atmosphere is better than Olive Garden, of course. Have popped in to Tutto for a quick lunch - antipasto and wine - but that is easy when it's just two adults (we travel without kids).

We have had both lunch and dinner at Via Napoli and have enjoyed it very much. We dined there with kids and they had a good time. We like the pizza. Pretty close to the pizza we have had in Italy.

It's always fun to talk to the waiters at both locations!
 

We have dined at both and really like both of them. However, we like Tutto just a tad more....we liked the atmosphere there and the food selection more. You really won't go wrong with either of them. Enjoy.
 
Tutto is a world better than Olive Garden. My Italian line up in WDW is as follows:

Tutto Italia
(Big Gap)
Tony's
(here is where I would put Olive Garden)
Mama Melrose
(Big Gap)
Via Napoli (pizza would rank a little higher).

We've been to Tutto Italia twice, and both times really enjoyed it. We did Via Napoli once, and the pizza was decent, but the rest of the food was terrible. My wife tried my chicken parm, and said "You like that?", as if no human actually could. The "spaghetti Torte" that came with it was completely inedible. It was probably the worse table service meal I've had in all my trips to WDW.
 
We love Via Napoli. We thought the Chicken Parm was the best we have ever had anywhere! We also had a couple of the pizzas and enjoyed them as well. We will be going back in July. And I though the spaghetti thing was good too.:thumbsup2

I agree 100%
 
Agree with Psac.

Tutto is pretty good for disney. No way it is Olive Garden. The only thing I'd say is it is expensive.

I do not like Tony's or Melrose at all. Hitting Via Napoli next month for the first time.

Everyone's taste is not the same. I always tell people just try it. You may love it although someone else will hate it. My sister and I do not agree on ANY food. But we give everything a shot and then make our own decisions.

Have fun
