LOL I am always AMAZED when I hear people like the food here, and I don't use the word "amaze" lightly - but rather say it as if I had just witnessed a miracle. And I'm a foodie, I adore food, and I'm not a food snob at all - I can be just as happy eating a baked pretzel or hot dog in Magic Kingdom as I am eating at the California Grill.
However, I am Italian-American and was raised as such with access to good, home cooked Italian meals. And that, most of all, is why I can honestly say I find the quality of food at Tony's to be truly offensive. But then, that's me, I am also offended by cheap jar sauces like Ragu and Prego as well as the Olive Garden, though I will say that the Olive Garden is actually several notches above Tony's, though admittedly, that still leaves it rather unedible, by my good Italian food standards.
I mean, if you have no idea what good, Italian food is and you were brought up on jar sauces and Olive Garden and thinking good pizza is from Dominos, you will probably love Tony's, I guess. For the rest of us, stay away. And incidentally, I tried what is supposedly their best dish, the chicken parm, which normally is one of my favorite things to eat of all time, and I can honestly tell you I still have nightmares over how horrible that dish was - truly one of the most vile and disgusting things I have ever eaten in my life.
If you want a convenient meal at Magic Kingdom, I would recommend literally ANYTHING else and ANYWHERE else over Tony's from the quick-service to the Plaza and Liberty Tree Tavern and of course the resort restaurants which are just a quick ride away at the monorail - like you can pretty much always get a decent meal at Kona or Grand Floridan Cafe on short notice.
