"Lady and the Tramp... but hold the flavor." - 3 Stars
So here we are at Tony's Town Square Restaurant, where romance is in the air, spaghetti is on the menu, and flavor... well, kinda wandered off somewhere around Main Street.
Let's start with the good: the garlic bread. Oh yes -- buttery, garlicky, crispy, and served with a Parmesan dip that made us believe in Disney magic (at least for 10 minutes). 10/10, would bread again.
Then the entrees arrived -- and it got a little less magical.
I ordered the chicken parm, which sadly tasted like it was sponsored by Boxed Pasta Inc. and Canned Tomato Co. Not terrible, but very "theme park adjacent." 6/10.
My daughter got the spaghetti with Impossible meatballs -- emphasis on impossible to finish. She took one bite, looked at me like I had betrayed her, and pushed the plate away. 4/10. Sorry, Disney, this one needs a fairy godmother and a recipe rewrite.
The vodka penne? Meh. No vodka, no punch, just penne in search of personality. 5/10.
The salmon (fish of the day) was actually quite nice! Moist, flavorful, and clearly didn't come from the same kitchen as the rest. 7/10, our top savory pick.
Now for dessert: the flourless chocolate cake with pistachio cream was a mood. Dense, rich, and tasted like someone melted fudge and called it a cake -- and I mean that in the best way. 8/10.
Service? Phenomenal. Our server was straight out of central casting -- cheerful, warm, and ready to adopt us into the Disney family. 10/10 for pure pixie dust.
The vibe? Classic Disney nostalgia. Think Lady and the Tramp fan art everywhere and a cute fountain in the middle that made me want to slurp pasta like a cartoon dog. Be warned: reservations only, no spontaneous spaghetti dates here.
Would I return? Probably not. It's a charming setting, but the food is one meatball away from theme park cafeteria. Still, it's worth visiting once -- just maybe for the garlic bread and a photo op with the fountain.
