Carmelo was absolutely fantastic. He took care of us like we were family. The entire wait staff was attentive and ready to accommodate any request. When I come back I plan to ask for Carmelo as my waiter, he was that great! The food was fantastic. Everything was spaced out perfectly. I can't recommend this restaurant enough. I will definitely be back.

We have been to this restaurant several times and enjoy our food each time but most importantly as well as the food the service is impeccable Madelaine and Howie represent the restaurant very well.  The whole team from Hostess and management always seem to be on top of everything and very gracious.  we live locally so this has become our local Italian restaurant and we are very happy to have found it

Title: Disappointing Service Overshadows Delicious Cuisine at Il Mulino My recent visit to Il Mulino left me with mixed feelings. While the food was undeniably delicious, the overall experience was marred by incredibly poor service. Despite the upscale ambiance, the lack of attentiveness and slow service from the staff significantly detracted from what could have been a memorable dining experience. Upon arrival, we were excited to indulge in a fine dining experience, but unfortunately, the service fell short of expectations right from the start. Despite the restaurant's cork fee, which we gladly paid, we were surprised to find that it only covered the opening of the bottle, leaving us to pour it ourselves. This lack of attention to detail was disappointing, especially considering the restaurant's reputation. Throughout the evening, we found ourselves repeatedly asking for water refills as our waitress seemed to forget about our table. This oversight was frustrating and detracted from our enjoyment of the meal. It's disheartening to see such a renowned establishment neglecting one of the most essential aspects of dining out – attentive service. While the food at Il Mulino was undoubtedly top-notch, it's a shame that the subpar service overshadowed what could have been an exceptional dining experience. For a restaurant of its caliber, the level of service should match the quality of the cuisine. Hopefully, management takes note of these shortcomings and implements improvements to ensure that future guests can fully appreciate all that Il Mulino has to offer.

Worst “Italian” meal I have ever had. Why are true NY institutions like Mulino's willing to have a restaurant trade on their name but not stay true to any of the actual recipes. I ordered spaghetti Cacio Pepe and it wasn't - what came to the table was overcooked spaghetti with oil and water and a few roasted tomatoes. Tomatoes in Cacio Pepe!! It looked and tasted horrible. Alas, there will be too many people that travel to Orlando and don't know good Italian food and they will eat this garbage and think this is the best “NY” style Italian. Scandalous.

Wonderful meal at Il Mulino. My husband and I both started with the fried calamari appetizer and it was delicious. Calamari was very crisp and the marinara sauce was spicy, but we liked that. We had the shrimp Francese which was also delicious. Howie was our server and he was wonderful. Friendly, attentive, and his server's assistant was also great (forgot her name).

Server was great, and food was spaced out the way we asked. Had a couple different wines by the glass and they were very good. Caponata with bread was good and tasty. We ordered the calamari as an app, and they were all tiny pieces did not enjoy that it was like having all the leftover crumbs at the bottom of a chip bag. Then we ordered rigatoni with mushrooms they were barely any mushrooms. Luckily, the server up sold us on sausage to add, besides that it would've just been rigatoni noodles and there was barely any sauce. We also ordered the linguine clams and only got five clams in the shell and a few pieces of clam in the pasta. I ordered the white sauce and I'm pretty sure they gave me the nonexistent sauce where there was barely any oil or butter or anything coating my pasta. Not even runoff in the bowl, it was dry. I expected more coming from the Swan and dolphin, and we were very underwhelmed with the food at the price point as well as portion size smaller than what would've been expected as well.

Our meal was absolutely fantastic and the only thing that was better was our server, he was the best and made the whole experience a 10 out of 10. Definitely worth a visit if you are staying at Swan & Dolphin or the other nearby hotels.

The service was fabulous. Grace the one bartender is consistently wonderful. She is super friendly and knowledgeable. In the dining room, Howie, Kevin and Malden were wonderful. They were all friendly, efficient and went above and beyond to create a wonderful birthday celebration for my husband. We have been coming here for many years and will continue this. The food is great and the environment is fun, classy and enjoyable!

For people who are ordering Bronzino, which is the Mediterranean fish just to let you know there is a pork belly on the fish so if you think that whatever they put on the top of the fish is like a some type of Hable it is not so if you're not a pork eater, make sure you specify that they don't put that on because I had that issue and it's not really listed or it's listed under a different name on the menu.  by the way on the entire world. This is the first restaurant that serves fish with pork that I've ever seen.

Starters off with an eggplant tapenade and yummy bread. Then the arancini balls were perfect crispy on outside and cheeses and soft in center. The ravioli cacio Pepe was excellent.

The garlic bread was bad quality, eat for the price. Our entrees were decent bu not very flavorful. Service was great, but the acoustics were bad & made for a very loud atmosphere.

We ate here for the first time in Sep 2023 and it was excellent. Great food and amazing service. This time, not so much. Service was lacking big time and the restaurant was not busy. Food was decent. We will not be eating here again. Not worth the cost.

I had high expectations for this restaurant a I have been to the bar before and it had a nice atmosphere. The meal started off lovely with a nice complimentary spread of eggplant and salami. It quickly went downhill from there. We split a cesar and they served 1/2 - as an afterthought with someone else's salads and then said they would be back with the rest. It might as well have been a piece of lettuce. When she came back, dishes were basically just dropped off. There were no smiles. No interactions at the end of the meal. We were not even offered dessert. We were just presented with a check again with no smile. I ordered a chicken fra Diablo, which I know is spicy, but this was almost inedible as was the pasta that came with the same sauce. I know this is Disney and so you're not always gonna get high-quality but when they charge the prices like they do at this upscale restaurant you expect more.
