Il Mulino at the Swan

Very outstanding Italian food. Not on the Dining Plan but as of January, they do accept Tables in Wonderland.
 
We dined here 3 years ago when they were fairly new, and due to rave reviews on this board we gave it another shot about a week ago. We left with the same impression this time. It was good, definitely not bad and we ate our food and left full. But we felt it was overpriced. It wasn't outstanding, or amazing, or had us dying to go back again. When I drop $100.00 on a meal thats the feeling I want to leave with....like I do at CA Grill, YSH, or even Steakhouse 55 in DL. We were just as happy dining at Mama Melrose a few nights later for almsot half the cost.
 

We ate there this past Thursday. I really liked the atmosphere and certain aspects (the bread and little "antipasto" they put on the table), but found it overpriced as well. For 4 of us, the bill was $200 and 3 of us had pasta. My DS' was way salty and mine was good, but nothing spectacular. I think there are better choices for the price.

NOTE: This is only one of five sit-down eateries we patronize at WDW. The service is always exquisite and the food very-good-to-excellent. I want to feel pampered at a fine dinner, and IL Mulino does this to their patrons.

NOTE2: Frequently, we did not buy great-to-exquisite wines at dinner, as wife had carne (meat) and I had pesce (fish). She does not like a dry wine, thus I can't buy a full bottle, so I settle for average-to-above-average wine splits.
 
Expensive. But excellent food and service. Best Italian food at WDW.
