The restaurant is great, the decor is comfortable and beautiful, the atmosphere is wonderful, the food is very delicious and there is a wide choice for me the caprese salad very recommended and the ravioli pasta also very recommended the only thing it was not comfortable the waiter is not friendly and not welcoming
Il Mulino New York Trattoria is a very nice spot to eat but not very much like Il Mulino in downtown New York. The food selection is varied and good, with large portions. The service is excellent, very friendly and the atmosphere is clean and modern. A favorite eating place for us.
The service was outstanding and the food was delicious. Howie was attentive and Giovanni was Charming. Definitely a small piece of New York found in Walt Disney World at the Swan hotel. We will be back.
We had dined at about 5 others restaurants on Disney property and was always asked if we were celebrating anything on this trip. I always responded my birthday. We have been going to Disney World over 40 times. And at the beginning once in a while you would get that magical moment from a cast member. But in the last 10 years or so those magical moments have sadly disappeared. When we Dined at Il Milano in the Swan. Had never eaten there before. Asked what we were celebrating and y said my birthday. When we were seated there was a birthday card for me. When we were done with our fabulous dinner. They brought out two slices of cake with whipped cream and a candle. Truly a wonderful experience. Thank you Marriot
This Italian restaurant was wonderful! I made a reservation 3 hrs before we wanted to eat and had an amazing experience thank you!
We had an amazing dinner at Il Molino! Every dish we tried was outstanding—from the Calamari Fritti and Polpette Al Forno to the Cozze and gluten-free Rigatoni con Funghi with salmon. The Cheesecake Italiano was our favorite dessert, with the Torta di Cioccolati close behind. What truly made the evening unforgettable was our server, Carmelo. He went above and beyond with excellent recommendations, warm service, and thoughtful touches. As we ended our meal with limoncello, Carmelo even brought our son a glass of lemonade so he could share in the fun—our son said it was the best lemonade he’s ever had! Carmelo also suggested a sunset walk afterward, which was the perfect end to a perfect night. We left smiling, and we’ll definitely be back!
If you're looking for an upscale Italian restaurant I would definitely consider coming here. Overall the food was very good and the service met our expectations. The salmon entree was a little underwhelming, but all of the other food was great. The only downside to this restaurant would be the acoustics and noise level since it was very loud and difficult to have a conversation when the dining room was full. I wouldn't consider it intimate or romantic if that's the vibe you're looking for.
Have had the one in AC so felt good giving this a try and it didn’t disappoint. Bread was delicious and no one at the table was disappointed with their entree. My mushroom risotto was amazing. Definitely a great meal.
