DON'T BOTHER!!!....

by nycgirl408

As a frequent patron of this old time italian restaurant where i had grown to love their zabiglone and spaghetti bolognese, I've become a dissident as of late and will never go back. their service is atrocious and reminiscent of old men losing their memories. for me, I gave it a second chance(having gone here almost thirty times prior) after one instance where several of our orders were wrong and the meatballs were dry (just like the waiter's snobby and condescending personality). We walked in to this "cash only" establishment just wanting to have dessert because we craved the zabiglone and with literally only two tables full and thirty empty, we were snubbed and humiliated in front of the other customers as our waiter loudly shouted "no we dont do that here." Don't do what? I asked, he said "you have to eat dinner to get dessert" which I personally think is ridiculous, and as he pulled away the bread he was about to put down he yelled over to one other waiter telling him of what we had dared to do. on our way out the manager who I thought would have recognized me asked what happened, and we said "tried to order dessert" he just said "oh" and let us walk out like dogs in the street. i will never go back again, b/c honestly the food isnt all its cracked up to be especially for terrible service and cash only high prices. good luck.

  • Pros: one good dessert
  • Cons: service, prices, ambience..

Overpriced

Overpriced, average food. Place tries to be something it is not. You can get the same quality food at your local pizza place.

  • Pros: Location
  • Cons: Overpriced average food
