The Portobello Yacht Club at Downtown Disney is rebranding. The Walt Disney World restaurant will be known simply as "Portobello" once the transition is complete in December.

The menu will shift from traditional Italian fare to food inspired by regional Italian destinations such as Milan, Tuscany and Rome.

The restaurant, operated by Chicago-based Levy Restaurants, will be closed from Sept. 27 through Oct. 12 as it undergoes a makeover to resemble an Italian trattoria.

I hope the new menu is as good and tasty as the current one -- this place is a can't miss for us.

Portobello has a lovely location. I can't wait to try the new venue (and menu) on my trip in January! :mickey:

I agree. A minor facelift and name change won't be a big deal, but I hope they don't take away some of the great menu items.
