6. Menu
Though it’s billed as an Italian restaurant, Tony’s Town Square Restaurant is really more Italian-American like many chain restaurants you would find all over the country. This may be disappointing if you were hoping for something more comparable to Epcot’s Via Napoli or Tutto Italia, but if you give it a chance the food can actually be just as good albeit different.
5. Family-friendly
The plus side of the more Americanized menu over at Tony’s compared to other Italian restaurants around Walt Disney World is that the options are easier to please guests of all tastes. If you have some picky eaters in the family, Tony’s Town Square offers a nice way to break from the usual burgers and hot dogs while still accommodating fairly standard entrees for guests who are more selective.
