arrived at half past eight in the evening stood at door for 5 minutes no one saw us to a table -looked at manager behind bar grey haired guy with glasses-acknowledged me with nod
waited again at door no one showed for further 4 mins had to poke head in again to the bar
was shown to seat eventually given a poorly written menu with plastic a cover that reflected ceiling lights making hard to read at all
waited 15 mins no service-italian couple next to us making looks as we still had not been served
finally raised my hand to call the waiter serving another table-this was the guy who showed us to our table-he ignored me! Or didnt see me? Had to go get a lady waiter-she got another waiter to serve us
no smiles no thankyous, no is there anything else, just a grunt!
food actually arrived rather quickly- but only my wife's ravioli.....
she managed to eat her whole dinner and mine still had not arrived!
I called the grey haired guy over and jestured to my wife's empty plate then at mine that was still not there!
he shrugged and made an excuse that it was Saturday night and said 'I have to make a lot of pizzas' (when its actually sunday night anyway!)
my pizza came in another 5 mins-pizza was actually not bad to be fair
then they charged me the old cover charge even though they delivered shocking service and made my wife eat her dinner on her own while i watched, then she had to watch me eat mine!
shame on you all for not even apologising-i was pleasant and didnt even raise my voice or cause disruption whilst you were ignorant and un aware of your own poor service and then wanted us to pay you for the...
Read moreI wish I could say something about the food...unfortunately I was not even allowed to eat. After driving for 6 hours this past week, my friend and I were thrilled to indulge in the pizza of this restaurant, as we knew we would arrive in Cortina quite late, we called ahead at approximately 8pm to see if the restaurant would still be open when we arrived at 10pm, which we clearly indicated and they enthusiastically confirmed on the phone and said they would welcome us in at this time, even taking our names down (for reference they list their closing time on Google as 11:30pm). After struggling to find the restaurant behind a bunch of construction, my friend and I excitedly arrived to the restaurant with empty bellies at 9:45pm and when we walked in, we were told that they were closed 5 minutes ago and would refuse to serve or seat us. After we explained that we had called ahead, the manager proceeded to mock and laugh at us saying that "we were open when you called..." even after we explained that we clearly stated we would come at 10pm. He then proceeded to laugh, mock, and point at us in Italian to his fellow coworkers and unceremoniously kicked us out of the restaurant. My friend and I were then left stranded and starving and cold on the outside of this restaurant even though we did our due diligence to confirm we could dine there that night. Please, by all means go to this restaurant if you have no intention of...
Read moreI have been desperately looking for a pizzaria who did gluten free bases in Corona. At last, my husband found one for me. It was fairly empty when we arrived at 7.00pm but soon started filling up as a good family eatery. The atmosphere was one of Italian families and friends dining together and having a good time. The pizza menu was quite extensive and I was able to add my choice of extra ingredients. I always go for a vegetarian with lots of veggies. The use of anchovies in Italian food is delicious and it is used widely. My husband had a meat dumpling soup which he enjoyed immensely, followed by a giant kebab, loaded with beef and bacon and dripping into a bowl of potatoes. It did not take him long to wolf that down. I enjoyed a glass of Italian red wine. My hubby only drinks water and if he splashes out he will order sparkling. They gave me a box to take away the 2 slices I just could not finish. What was most startling was the speed at which the food was served. The fastest I have ever experienced. The food was served piping hot and freshly cooked. Well done...
