I know this is an older thread, but anyone know what's replacing Alfredo's for sure?

[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Patina Restaurant Group to open new Epcot restaurant. L'Originale Alfredo di Roma Ristorante in the Italy pavilion closes in September, and California-based Patina Restaurant Group will open a new restaurant in the same spot in fall 2008. (Patina will operate a temporary Italian eatery, Tutto Italia, until the new restaurant debuts. The Epcot restaurant is the newest flagship in Patina's portfolio of nearly 30 restaurants across the U.S. and its first in Florida. [/FONT]

I wish they would just put the restaurant back. I got to eat there for the last time in Feb with my sister. I carried the leftover fettuccine all over EPCOT and the monorail and 2-1/2 hours back home determined to eat it later. And I did.....:slurp:
I will miss that place when I get to go back.

So no Italian food at Epcot next summer...I'm thoroughly depressed. Anyone hear anything about Patina? Good service, good food?

I do believe it WILL be Italian.
It would seems kinda odd to have a restaurant in Italy serving hamburgers and french fries! :shrug:

They operate the Napoli restaurant at Downtown Disney in California. I ate there last year and really enjoyed it.
I also heard that Disney will be operating some sort of Italian restaurant in the mean time.
Yep. Its going to be counter service serving lasagna on a stick and garlic toast...:lol:

From WDW INFO:
I've never eaten there. I'm going to WDW next week (yay!). Should I go before it closes? Am I missing something important? Being from the NYC area, I can get really good Italian American food, and even some authentic Italian food at dozens of places. If this Alfredo's is marginally better than the Olive Garden (which I hate), I'll skip it.

My personal opinion is you can get better Italian at CiCis Pizza.
