IMHO (as a son of Italian immigrants who grew up on the real thing), none of the theme park Italian restaurants are all that great. Mama Melrose is passable, and Alfredo has a few good dishes, but the less said about Tony's the better.
If you really want decent Italian at WDW it is there, but you have to venture outside the parks. Palio at the Swan is the best, and Portobello at Downtown Disney is also pretty good.
I have to agree, being from NY too. I've tasted what they try to pass off as Italian and it's not great, but then again, when I visit WDW, I'm not looking to eat Italian since I can have that at home any time.
