I recently came back to Cucina to catch up with a friend, and for the first time ever I strayed from their pastas and had the "pork belly".
I use the quotations because instead of a square of pork belly with crispy skin, I was instead served what looked more like a rolled pork centerloin cut that was dry and tough. This unfortunate piece of meat was accompanied by an equally unfortunate scoop of greasy cubed veggies and potato, which were dripping with grease and tasted more like a Denny's than a proper restaurant - all for about $25 (which is pricey for lunch!)
That was definitely a 2-star experience but I'm adjusting my review to 4 stars on account of all the positive pasta experiences that I've had at this restaurant.
