They give you bread and butter while you wait (you can ask for olive oil and balsamic vinegar instead). I found the prices to be reasonable for Disneyland. (I think the hot entrees at Rancho are overpriced). And... you can have wine with your meal (hic) :-D

I used my Disney Visa card to get a discount on the total, but I didn't think the prices were outrageous. I also went to the BB during that visit (November 05) and thought the quality at the Trattoria was better than BB (which, IMHO, has gotten a bit tired in the last couple of years).
Originally Posted By Jim in Merced CA Since it opened, Trattoria has been a bit 'hit and miss' with us. We visited before the holiday season last year, and found it to be quite good. Nice sandwiches, served fresh. As for prices? I think just about every location is a bit over-priced. But at 'Trattoria' you do get table service, which I prefer to the 'get your own with a cafeteria tray, pay and by the time you reach your table the food is cold' type of eatery.

Originally Posted By Kar2oonMan We've eaten there twice, and both times were happy with the food, service and the relaxed atmosphere.

For me the portions could have been a little bit more generous. But the food itself tasted good.

Originally Posted By Misty We had a GREAT dinner there in November, but here are the circumstances: We went to DL the week before Thanskgiving. It was packed packed packed.

We had an incredibly relaxing dinner, all 4 of us loved it (hubby & I, 15 and 11 year old boys) Loved the chopped salad and chicken fettucine. I do not want to know how many calories are in the fettucini. Ever. It was great for dinner because we could relax over a glass of wine. Made our 5 consecutive rides on Grizzly River Run a bit more interesting anyway! Have fun!
