It's not about speed, but quality. :)
From the Disney Parks blog:
http://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blo...taly-pavilion/Great news – especially if you share my passion for amazing pizza. An authentic pizzeria will be opening at the Italy Pavilion at Epcot theme park later this year and it’s an attention-grabber.
The new 300-seat restaurant will have traditional Florentine architecture, vaulted-ceilings and outside dining. And the food will be authentic — Italian dishes (complimenting the offerings at Tutto Italia ) and pizza from wood-burning ovens.
The pizzeria will be the newest flagship restaurant in the Patina Restaurant Group’s portfolio. And one of the special touches at the Epcot location will be the water. It’ll be imported from a source where the composition most resembles water used in Naples, Italy, to make the authentic Italian dough.
A name for the family-style pizzeria has not been finalized but we wanted to share this information with you first on the Disney Parks Blog. Construction is currently underway and the restaurant is scheduled to open in fall 2010. Check back for more updates.

In fall??? My mother works at Epcot (Kim Possible World Showcase adventure) and she usually works in the Italian pavilion too, so she heard that the pizzeria would open as soon as April or May... I'm confused now!
Wow... your mother is part of the big Disney family!!! Make her my compliment!!! Ahahah!!!
I also they will open in april/may so when we come back in October all the Italian restaurant will be ready and well organized!

From a WDW Press Release
In Italy, an authentic Neapolitan pizzeria is under construction with opening planned for fall 2010 in time for the Epcot International Food & Wine Festival. Operated by Patina Restaurant Group, the same restaurateurs who run the pavilion’s Tutto Italia Ristorante, the 300-seat pizzeria is inspired by Naples 45, another Patina Restaurant Group pizzeria on East 45th Street in New York City.
The casual pizzeria will feature wood-burning ovens – and will import water from a source that most resembles the water in Naples, Italy, home of some of the world’s best pizza dough. The menu also will feature pastas, salads, sandwiches and Italian wines.
The 14,000-square-foot space will include indoor and outdoor dining.

Ahhh, the scrim. Soon it will be decorated with an image of Italy, or trees.
The image is now up. TheDailyDisney.com has posted several construction pictures from the 5th here: http://thedailydisney.com/blog/2010/...-construction/
