    I remember eating here. I don’t remember the food because that was not memorable. I remember because my boyfriend and his parents brought me to Tonys for a meal.(now my husband and in-laws) I was surprised because I didn’t even know a Restaurant was in the Main Street square. In all honesty. I make it a point not to eat at Magic Kingdom at all! I got food poisoning from a salad that had no dressing, and no meat on it and it wasn’t just me affected by the salad. My father-in-law was ill from his salad. So in all honesty I usually go to the contemporary to grab something to eat, or different resort, or park hop! Thank you Tom for honesty and bravery!

    Thank you for looking into Tony's new offerings. Glad to hear there are some positive changes. I for one stay away from sausage and that first dish (Penne With Chicken Al Forno) seemed quite good. We never get garlic bread but I bet some family would enjoy that tower LOL) Thanks for your honest opinions and though went in with bad vibes, glad you were pleasantly surprised.

    When my daughter was young she had the pasta with alfredo sauce. It had pieces of plastic in it. I was shocked by the waiter's response. He didn't really seem to care and said he could bring her another one. She was afraid to eat anything else. The worst dining experience i'd never go back I even had a hard time getting her meal charge credited back to the DDP. My worst Disney memory!

    $27 bucks for a simple pasta dish with sausage!? I know it’s Disney but that is insane for a dish with ingredients that probably cost less than $4 bucks to make.
    Also that restaurant needs some plants or dividers to help absorb some of the noise level. Feels like I’m at a convention center.

    My only quibble with your review is that Orecchiette pasta by it’s shape is suppose to be a bit on the chewy (or “toothsome”) side, so it seems like at least that was cooked as it should be. Obviously not having eaten these I can’t say if your flavor descriptions are right or wrong. I like heavy garlic so that great may be great for me. Still I don’t think Tony’s would be on our list to eat during our visit. Last time I ate there was I think in 2005 and it was pretty bad back then.

      It’s as if this was the 15th review of Tony’s I’ve done in my career

    YOU JUDGE TOO HARSHLY. I have eaten all over the world; Paris, Rome, London. The food at Tony's is fine for what it is. You went in with the presumption that Tony's food is of poor quality. It isn't. I ate in a small cafe in Marseille where the food was horrible compared to Tony's. And in answer to your question; it depends on the person. I would make it clear that Tony's has typical Italian food like Olive Garden, and is fine for an amusement park.

      Olive Garden isn't typical Italian food, it's a mass-produced version of Italian-American food.
