Bar Vecchio Borgo — Restaurant in Bellagio

Avoid at all costs. You think the prices are good for the area but once you taste the food you’ll know why. Just went with my wife and ordered a margarita pizza, lasagna, and a glass of red wine. The wine was the only thing edible.

They brought out 3 inedible rock hard bread rolls and a thing of Parmesan straight from the supermarket. The parm was sub par and the bread was inedible.

The pizza was super burnt and was literally a cheese pizza with a single basil leaf. This single leaf I suppose transformed the pizza into a margarita pizza somehow?! We sent it back and the second pizza was below mediocre but edible at least.

My lasagna tasted like a classic American Costco microwave dinner. I really wasn’t expecting it to be so bad but hey, I didn’t opt for the more expensive restaurants so I guess that’s what I get. I didn’t eat any of it, had 2 bites and cut my losses.

Then when we paid they had an extra surcharge for sitting outside. I have seen this in popular areas but this was a simple scam.

0/5 stars, would never recommend, especially when I’m in Italy trying to eat some of the best most legendary food on the planet. Save your euros and go elsewhere. Spent $45 euro total.

Service was ok tho, the server did nothing wrong. My beef is with the kitchen...

TLDR: only come here if you’re in a pinch for a quick but mediocre meal.

We saw lots of people sitting here and decided to give it a try. To their credit, we were seated quickly and our food came fast but that’s where the positives end.

With how fast the pizza came out, it was clearly not fresh pizza dough. The “mozzarella” and “pomodoro sauce” were mediocre at best. While the pizza crust was crispy on the bottom, it was very bland (almost like card board) and all of the cheap (clearly canned) toppings and it made the whole top of the pizza watery.

On top of this, all of the waiters had so much attitude and gave patrons mean looks if they needed anything. They also added a $5 cover charge without it being stated anywhere. We wouldn’t have been annoyed if they told us/if the service was good since we leave tips anyways but it was frustrating to see that after sassy service and a sad...

Staff where very rude and it took a long time before we were served. Sitting was very uncomfortable. On ordering our meals we were told that you have to purchase a drink with the meal. I have never come across this. I had to keep shifting during my meal so staff could get to the drinks fridge. The food was not great. Carbonara was like glue. When I went to pick up a fork full the whole plate on noodles could be lifted up in a clump from the plate with just a few noodles on the fork. The noodles were also burnt, hard and difficult to eat. The portions sizes are small so don't be fooled by the cheaper prices for the area. The bathrooms where disgusting. No locks on the doors or toilet paper, the floors were wet and filthy. The resturant is bland and underwhelming. Don't go here to save a couple of dollars it isn't worth your time especially when your pushed into purchasing drinks that we...
