Confetti Ristorante & Vinoteca — Restaurant in Town of Orangetown

Went for dinner. The food and service were abysmal. I am the farthest thing from a stickler, frankly I don't review often but I'd love to save people from making the mistake my girlfriend and I did. I'm not even going to elaborate on the fact our server did not ask us if we were interested in bottled water, I had to ask. That was the least of my worries if you consider the following series of events. For apps I ordered baked clams, carpaccio, and a white pizza. The clams were awful. Extraordinarily undercooked and dirty. The carpaccio was mediocre, how could you screw a carpaccio up right? The pizza was good but generic in taste. While eating our apps, and being disappointed in them, I told our server we were going for a cigarette before the entree. She said it's cool. I had already order my steak. Perhaps I should've gave her my card or gave her a couple a hundreds to hold on to so she knows I'm coming back. I figured trust is good so I didn't bother. I smoked and came back. All of my food was gone. My girlfriends cocktail that she took half a sip from was cleared. The apps we ordered were gone. Seeing the food gone was more of a blessing. However, I paid for them and the plates till had food on them. Why on earth would you clear the table? It's not like the steak came out immediately after. We still had to wait like 20 mins after they cleared out apps for more food and in no way shape or fo was I going to give in to getting more food, maybe if it the apps were good I would've. For entree I ordered their ribeye and my girlfriend ordered their filet. Let me tell you about this ribeye. This ribeye was the worst steak I've ever consumed in my entire life. It seemed like the cheapest choice cut steak. Their markup must be insane, at least I hope it is considering how poor on quality the meat was. Regarding all of the food including sides, no salt was used to prepare them. Who doesn't cook with seasoning?? Super bland. I have a saying about people when their boring. I say, they're like a steak with no pepper. I now can certainly say I've found that steak with no pepper that I compare people to. If I could go back in time and set reservations elsewhere I would. Even if going back in time would shave a year off my life, I would do it just to avoid going to confetti. Very disappointing experience and I was truly truly thinking that by eating here my taste buds were going to...

I’m trying to be fair by only talking about the negative, which my husband and I are so disappointed to report. I ordered a meal that was extremely skimpy on one of the two main ingredients. When I saw how skimpy it was, I asked the waitress if she could get me a little more of this. She came out with a little more. The bill had an additional $5 charge for it. I was not told that there would be an extra charge or I would have declined the additional amount. It wasn’t worth an extra charge. The OWNER came out to talk to me and fought me tooth and nail on this $5 charge!!!! The OWNER!!! Can you believe it?! Kept telling me that if I order more there’s a charge. She was not willing to HEAR my side which was that I understand that if I ordered “extra” when I placed the order, I would the understand that there would be an additional charge. I didn’t think I would need to do that. The waitress described the dish and it sounded great. When I got it and realized how very skimpy it was, I figured I could get a little more of this ingredient, which by the was only some beets. I repeat, this woman was an OWNER!!!! For $5 she’s willing to lose two very regular customers and our friends. I think she said her name is Dina. Unbelievable!!!

The response from the restaurant is absolutely false. I was never told about the additional charge, as if that were the case, I would be wrong to dispute it. If others around us heard our conversation, it’s only because the owner was so incredibly rude to me. I see that she left that out. My husband and I have never experienced anything like this. We love eating out and up until now, we always enjoyed our Confetti experiences. I’ve never ordered that dish before so of course I didn’t know how skimpy it was. I asked a different server if she could get me a little more because our server was not around at that moment. Our waitress later came by and said she’d check on it. That’s all. It was delivered by a server. Period. No one EVER mentioned an additional charge. I don’t understand why someone had the nerve to say that I was informed. Maybe it’s because they don’t want to lose their job. All I needed from the owner was to recognize that I was not informed and to respect where I was coming from. She was so very very...

What a pitiful response to a dissatisfied customer. There was no profanity, no one stood and clapped when my party left, and the tough guy attitude when you confronted me was unprofessional and disgraceful for an owner. No comment about the dish that had no resemblance to the description on the menu though?? Have no fear, I will NEVER return for your overpriced diner food.

Don't be fooled by the many good reviews posted here. They were regarding the previous owner and staff. The new ownership needs to take a good look at their staff or they won't last long. Confetti used to be a decent and reliable Italian restaurant. Unfortunately it is not any longer. Service was slow and unprofessional. A bottle of wine came opened and the server just started pouring. No big deal. But we finished the bottle before our appetizer of pizza even came and then was never asked if we wanted another bottle at all. I ordered below and asked for extra sauce: Paccheri Amatriciana - $30.00 Paccheri pasta, tender pork ragu, shaved parm, in a light tomato pecorino sauce. What came was overcooked pasta layered with a 3rd of the plate of onions in a watery tomato juice and tiny pork cubes that may have been leftover from a previous night's pork chop. I waited for someone to return the dish but after 25 minutes just picked at the pasta. When the server finally appeared I told her the dish was terrible, I would have returned it had anyone bothered to check on us, and have it removed from the bill. The "manager" refused and told me it would remain since I hadn't returned it. No tip was left to cover my loss. Sorry but I will not reward anyone for not doing their job and in this case nobody their did their job, only...
