Good food at a GREAT price! Call to reserve and ask for the Fantasmic special seating. A meal that would normally cost over $120 cost about $100 AND you get special seating at Fantasmic.
Great Mac and cheese ! Ordered an entree portion of it, was only charged $5. The dish felt like an Alfredo dish but with penne pasta and chicken !
Make reservations in advance!! Spaghetti and meatballs were fantastic!! Ask for Kevin's table-you will be extremely well looked after. Cant speak highly enough about how well we were looked after.
Best steak I've ever eaten, and I've ate a lot of steak . David was a great waiter and they have a great beer selection as well . Must eat here and must order the steak !
Everything we had was amazing. Flatbread app, chicken parmesana with a side of meatballs . We shared the main dish and they were so kind to plate it in half separately. Top notch service as well .
Bit on the pricy higher end yet this food is absolutely fantastic and fresh! Get your reservations early to avoid waiting for hours
The Shrimp Campanelle is excellent! Try to get seated at George’s table, one of the best cast members in Disney!
Slooow Service but wonderful atmosphere and chicken campanelle entree was HUGE and oh so delicious. They make to order so no issues with modifying the entree to your preferences!
We really liked the Rosemary Chicken Flatbread , and the Charred Strip Steak with Chianti Reduction and Shallot Butter. I don't know why I see any negative comments below!
Vegan Arancini , 4 out of 5. You’re left with a pretty fresh feeling after eating. Crust can be a bit hard.
Showed up 1 hr early and got sat quick! Server was brash, steak was super! flatbreads are $$ but good calamari APTZR was the best I've ever had!
The strip steak is amazing!! And they cook it just perfect. Go for it, it's definitely worth it.
Danielle from Cooper City , FL (husband Craig) at Mama Melrose was the best waitress we've ever encounters both inside and outside Disney World. You MUST request her - she is fantastic!!!
The Chicken Parmesan uses a freshly breaded and grilled boneless chicken breast that was juicy and flavorful. The pasta was fresh tasting, but slightly overcooked. It far exceeded my expectations.
Vegan polenta . 3 out of 5. Vegetables were nice. Polenta was cooked poorly & had to send it back (I have a feeling no one had ordered it for a while and it had just been sitting out back for a while)
Had lunch here for the Fantasmic package . Lunch and the VIP seating for the show definately worth the money. Food was good and service very friendly .
The chocolate cheesecake is amazing!!! Be sure to leave room. I also had mimestrone soup - very good. Spaghetti was not particularly noteworthy.
Stuck to all the reviews & had steak & chicken campanelle @ had a great meal! Pasta was FULL of garlic & onions so if that's an issue for you beware! Cheesecake was yummy, calamari was ok but dips A+
Love the calamari . Campanelle with shrimp is fantastic. You definitely need a reservation . But almost all the good suit down places do. ,
Very nice place! Had great service and food was tasty. Karley was sweet. There may be a wait with your reservation but keep in mind you're in Disney!!
Make reservations and get the Fantasmic package - appetizer meal desert sampler and preferred seating for the show
Chef Angel is amazing and will work with any food allergy! Love this place!!!
Charred Steak Strip was delightful if you are in the mood for steak . Cooked perfectly ????
Large entrées. My wife and I got two apps, and split n entree and were full. The food was great.
Margarita pizza is great. Been going there for 25 years. Great place to go for lunch .
The Calamari here is quite better than most Disney restaurants , and the Pork Osso Bucco was fantastic!
Do not try to come here and expect to get an open table. This place is so "good" you should make a reservation in advance.
Meals and service were outstanding. Pork Chop , Steak , and pasta were all great. Claudia our server was very attentive. We will be back.
Our favorite restaurant . We always find the service and food amazing. A great place for families.
Design your own flatbread . My son had a ground beef , bacon with cheese . Excellent.
Love the Fantasmic dining package! Steak - and the cheesecake for dessert . YUM!
Not the best food On property but works well when paired w/ the Famtasmic dinner package. You will receive a return time for Fantasmic and we be granted a "secret" walk way to sit before everyone else
Super kind service . Delicious chicken parm .
Mussels were a gear starter and the chicken camponelle for main. Service was quick & great.
Good food, great service, overall great experience! Not sure why all the negative comments.
The dishes are big enough to share. The Caesar salad is a refreshing appetizer .
Delicious! Penne Vodka with Shrimp , Steak , and Tiramisu . They're all fantasmic.
Excellent food. Try their steak and five cheese baked macaroni
Ask for Kevin! He will make you feel so welcome! And try the chocolate cheesecake seriously, heavenly!
The staff here is horrendous but the food is amazing and it's quaint. Cannoli cake is amazing. Ask for Sammy he's the only nice person in here.
Great pasta dishes. Friendly staff .
Staff was great! Claudia totally sounds like tourguide Barbie in Toy Story 2...Penne alla Vodka was awesome as was Pork Chop

The chocolate cheesecake is heavenly.
I went here when I was 11 years old here at Disneyworld! It was yummy!
