点评:What used to be our favorite Italian restaurant in the area, no longer provides a dining experience to match the price tag. We dined at Pasta Nostra (FKA Bruculino) last weekend and the evening was full of WTF's, for which one can't even begin to offer an explanation. It started with forgetting an entree and then delivering it when everyone else was finished (they didn't even offer to comp a soda in lieu of one person eating by themself). We were charged $40 for bread and olive oil, which I believe is complimentary at most restaurants. And the kicker was we were charged $80.00 because we brought in a birthday cake (as an aside, our friend has gluten and dairy allergies, so we couldn't order any desserts from the menu). When we received the bill, we asked to speak with the owner (Joe Bruno) who was dining two tables away, and he had zero interest in helping to remedy the situation. After all the mishaps, we left feeling like we were gouged in every possible way. Cleary the restaurant is struggling and unfortunately changing the name won't compensate for this type of dining experience.
翻译:曾经是我们在该地区最喜欢的意大利餐厅,现在不再提供与价格标签相匹配的用餐体验。上周末我们在 Pasta Nostra (FKA Bruculino) 用餐,晚上充满了 WTF,甚至无法开始提供解释。首先是忘记了主菜,然后在其他人吃完后送来(他们甚至没有提供苏打水来代替一个人自己吃)。我们被收取 40 美元的面包和橄榄油费用,我相信大多数餐厅都是免费的。更糟糕的是,我们被收取了 80.00 美元,因为我们带了一个生日蛋糕(顺便说一句,我们的朋友对麸质和乳制品过敏,所以我们不能从菜单上点任何甜点)。当我们收到账单时,我们要求与正在两张桌子外就餐的店主(乔布鲁诺)交谈,他对帮助解决这个问题没有兴趣。在经历了所有的不幸之后,我们离开时感觉自己受到了各种可能的伤害。 Cleary 这家餐厅正在苦苦挣扎,不幸的是,更改名称并不能弥补这种用餐体验。
