Trattoria al Forno

At Disney’s Boardwalk Resort, there’s several different dining options for someone to enjoy. Many of them are extremely popular, as is the case with Trattoria al Forno. It offers both breakfast and dinner as a casual Italian eatery.

When I initially looked at the gluten free menu, I was a little underwhelmed if I am honest. There were only a handful of dishes that were listed as safe for gluten allergies. Then, the server came over and explained that essentially everything on the regular menu is available gluten-free, except the garlic bread, gnocchi, and lasagna!

After hearing this and slowly gathering my thoughts from having my mind blown, we quickly ordered the Crispy Pancetta Arancini as an appetizer. I was told I would get my own roasted garlic and oil for bread and the normal Disney gluten-free rolls.

The server shared that the pizza is a typical purchased gluten-free crust. But I had read about the gluten-free Parmigiana di Pollo. It’s been so long since I’ve had chicken parm that I just had to try it. It came out with a side of pasta as well. Let’s just say that this dish did not disappoint!

The chicken was absolutely amazing! The pasta was soft and cooked perfectly. I’m not a big fan of pasta overall, but this one was good. It wasn’t like some other gluten-free pasta’s that taste pasty or too crunchy. The texture was very similar to what I remember normal pasta texture being like.

After a great experience, I will certainly go back to visit again. They were limited on the dessert options in this location, but you can always visit the Cake Bake Shop just a few doors down to get some gluten-free dessert as you leave!
