After a fun day at Blizzard Beach, we headed over to Epcot for dinner at
TUTTO ITALIA
Thanks to super slow busses from POFQ we were about 15 minutes late for our reservation. The CM at check-in was very nice. He promised to seat us right away, and it didn't take long at all.
We were served a nice basket of breads with a herbed butter and a dish of veggies (olives, carrot, pickle, pepper, etc.) along with olive oil for dipping the breads. This was a very nice way to start the meal. The breads were very fresh and delicious.
Our server here was wonderful. He made some very good suggestions for entrees and desserts. He was attentive and friendly.
The kids meals here were fantastic! They had a choice of fresh fruit cocktail, salad, or mozzarella sticks for their appetizer. They ended up with 2 fruit cocktails and one mozzarella sticks. The fruit was served in a martini glass. It was a chopped mixture of apples, mellon, strawberries, and blueberries. DS gave me a taste and it was really good! DS6 had the mozzarella sticks. He has never liked them before, so I wasn't sure why he ordered them. BUT he ate them ALL! (He did share a few bites with his brother.) They said they were fantastic.
For their entrees they had a spaghetti with meatballs and two grilled chicken breasts. The chicken looked OK - just grilled chicken, but DS really liked it. It was served with green beans which both kids didn't touch. DS6 had the spaghetti and meatballs. He ate until I thought he would POP. When we was finished DH and I took a bite and wished we had ordered what he had!!!! It was sooooo good!!!! We ate all that he left behind.
At the suggestion of the CM, the adults ordered 3 lasagnas and 1 manicotti. I had the manicotti. If I'm remembering correctly it was spinach and ricotta. I do remember that it was excellent, but the little bite of lasagna that DH let me have was better. The lasagna was probably the best I've ever had!!! We had four clean plates in a matter of minutes.The food and service here were FANTASTIC.
Since we had a kid with nut allergies, the chef made her a special dessert of berries and cream. It came in a huge glass and was full of strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, and possibly some other fruit. I didn't get a good look at it before it was gobbled up. DS9 had chocolate gelati. It was a rich, creamy, dark chocolate, and he loved it. DS6 had lemon sorbetti, and it was his favorite dessert of the week. He wanted to order it at every TS place after that, but I think you can only get it here.
Again at the suggestion of the CM, the adults ordered 3 copetta sottoboscos (berries, zabaglione cream gelato and chocolate sauce) and 1 profiterolles (puffed pasteries filled with zabaglione cream gelato and drizzled with dark chocolate). These were excellent. Our DF's had one of each and said that the profiterolles were the best, but DH and I both really enjoyed the berries.
We were uncomfortably full when we rolled out of there, but it was worth it! The food and service were excellent. This was our best dinner of the trip! I think we will make 2 ADRs on our next trip.
This one gets a 10 out of 10.
Our total before tip was $128.87.
I love ALL Italian foods.
As someone who worked in an Italian Restaurant in Boston's North End for 6 years, and who happened to eat at Tutto in September, I can say its worth making an ADR here. In fact, after I returned home I booked the Candlelight Processional package at Tutto for my DM, DB and DS who are going to WDW in 2 weeks.
I can't wait to make my ressie at Tutto's, with all these great reviews, it sounds like a winner....BTW I LOOOOVE the North End!
Thanks!
Had a really great,authentic meal with wondeful service in August and can't wait to go back!
