TTMA Trattoria al Forno dinner

Anyone have favorite dishes and desserts to recommend? How is the chicken parmigiana here...?

Not totally sold on this ADR, as we have other Italian planned.
 
I had the market fish and it was DELICIOUS! Our table had the calamari which everyone enjoyed, the strip steak( my daughter thought it was pretty good),the pasta carbanara( this was okay), braised short rib bologonese ( which was very tasty) and the kids pizza which my son devoured with no complaints. I would def. go back there again as everything was above average compared to most table services I have been too. The fish was truly the star though!

I agree that the market whole fish was delicious. It was filleted at teh table, and while we all had ordered different entrees, this one was the one we all kept sharing. It was outstanding.

Two of us had the strip steak and both agreed it was very good.

I hit the winner with the hand rolled gnocci for my appetizer, althought the others who chose healthy salady things said those were good. (They kept eying mine though!LOL!) DEsserts were good, although we all decided the Sicilian torte was the best of our choices. Al FOrno is on my families must return to list.
 

We (4 adults) just ate at Trattoria on Wednesday night, and I cannot adequately express how awful the meal was. I feel like my new mission in life is to warn people away from this place, it was that bad. The service was slow which we can all live with. But the food? My sister's ravioli was cold (and the waiter didn't care, but we'll put that aside), my mother couldn't even finish her carbonara pasta and called it the worst carbonara she's ever had. My short rib bolognese pasta was like eating rubber...and I don't even remember what my Dad got but he was "meh" about it and he'll eat anything.

Our "breadsticks" that came with the antipasto plate were soft. I asked to make sure that was on purpose and was told no, that's weird. They're usually crispy.

We are NOT picky eaters or foodies and while we all appreciate good food, my standards while at Disney are rather low.

but this? Just nooooooot acceptable at any price point. Avoid, avoid, avoid.
 
We enjoy Trattoria al Forno.

Is it the best Italian food ever? No, but it's tasty.

Caprese salad is really good. Not as much house made mozzarella on plate from last year, but still delicious.

Dh and I split the Italian cured meat app. Really good. Server told us to watch out for the big olives as they're not pitted. Well, our plate didn't have them. She said that's not acceptable and brought us back a heaping plate of them! :) (fwiw, I love olives!)

Dh had the fish special and devoured it. Dd had the kids steak and said it was great. I had a pasta dish -- it was good, but the worst of the three.

Get the zeppoli dessert -- man are they good!!

Dd had the kids Italian S'more garden dessert. It's really not even a deconstructed s'more but it was so cute and she loved it.

I can't tell what half that stuff is, but it's adorable.

I know! :laughing:

I still am not sure what that green stuff was. Some kind of sugar but different consistency than cotton candy.

The light brown areas are crumbled graham cracker. The mushrooms are meringue, the little green and orange spots are sprinkles. And then the 3 raspberries with chocolate swirl on the bottom.
