French or Italian?

[yorkieteacher]

Talk to me about Chefs de France and Tutto Italia (some in our party like Italian food but not pizza). I have looked at the menus and prices, but I am interested in-
1. appeal to children/acceptance of young children in restaurant
2. Quality of food
3. Service-friendliness and promptness of servers and being seated close to reservation time
Thanks for helping me decide which to book for our Epcot evening-

We are adults with no kids but love both of those. Have not been since COVID but always had good food and service without a long wait. We do Tutto for lunch on one of our Epcot days and Chefs for dinner on another. Always see kids at them.

There really isn't any difference between these two places for the three factors mentioned. I'd go simply by menu and availability.

We did Chefs de France and the prix fix menu in Dec. Great food and service. Never been to Tutto.

Had very good meals at both, multiple times.
I think it really comes down to which menu do you like better.
You can get a very meal at both.

Both are fantastic! Can't go wrong with either...but I'd opt for Chefs!

We didn't care for Tutto Italia (honestly our sauce tasted like Chef Boyardee). At Chefs de France I got the Boeuf Bourguignon (huge disappointment, it was nothing more than beef and noodles). I can't remember what my husband and kids got at Chefs but I do remember that they all liked it.

We LOVE Via Napoli. A little more laid back atmosphere. Check out their menu for Italian!

Both are very good however, I would lean towards Chefs just because it is likely different than something you can get at home.

I’m not sure why, but I always feel rushed Chefs du France.

With two small grandkids we usually don't dawdle at meals with them! If it were just adults being rushed would bother me, but if we get the prix fixe menu and they order from the kids menu we were hoping to be done in less than an hour anyhow.

This is my feeling exactly. Two other adults are willing to be adventurous so unless something drastic happens to change my mind, France is where I will try to book first. It appears to be available more often then Tutto Italia as well.

The Duck at Le Chefs is really good. It gets my vote for sure!

That prix fixe price is a steal!
Am I understanding correctly that it includes a glass of wine AND a tea/soda?

Yes I had the wine and was also offered soda, but declined. Great deal!

We love Chefs de France and so do our kids who have liked since they were toddlers

Had a very fine experience at Chefs de France several years ago. I would think the staff would be accommodating to younger guests.
If not both, I would choose Chefs de France because Italian cuisine is more readily available everywhere.

Both are great - service and food. However, in the past we thought Chef's was alwasy so crowded with little space between tables. Covid solved this problem for the time being though. We have seen lots of littles at both.

And when DW and I have the prIx fixe meal, I drink both glasses of wine and DW drinks both glasses of soda (she doesn’t drink alcohol but has a pretty serious diet cola addiction ).

I will answer your question but please explain how some people don't like pizza???? (kidding of course)
We've been to both and had good experiences at both, but our group prefers Italian cuisine over French. We go way back at Tutto Italia when it was Alfredo's, it was probably our favorite restaurant in the world (i.e. planet earth.) I don't think it's as good now, but at least we get to enjoy the atmosphere, which hasn't changed much.
