Thursday night we had a going away party for my co-worker who also got a job downtown. We wanted to go some place local and hopefully on the patio. Unfortunately, it wasn't meant to be as the bar and patio were booked by a corporate party. Phooey!
The hostess got a table of 10 in the dining room and she actually put the tables together herself. Good service. We had to wait while the rest of our party showed up. There was a lady who was taking care of us for the first half hour for drinks only and then she disappeared, never to be seen again. We had to wave down a waiter and we told him that she did not come back to take our meal orders. He informed us that he instead would be taking care of us for the rest of the night. Strange that they both did not tell us before hand. Not really impressed.
I ordered what I always order when I go to Boston Pizza. An individual Rustic Italian pizza. It is my "favourite" pizza at this place. Their pizza is so-so to OK and it is hella overpriced. For many years, it has never blew me away and I never really want to eat pizza here because of it's mediocrity . It's just "there". I always choose other pizza establishments which are much better and you pay for better taste. I have ordered pasta at this franchise and it is absolutely horrible. Some of the worst pasta I have ever had in my life! Sometimes I think, why are they still in business?
The pizza came and it looked decent as it always does. Big chunky toppings (too big if I were to criticize), cooked to okay standards, crispy crust, same 'ole tired story. I finished my meal and was satisfied, I enjoyed it and was content. It always could be better. Would I come back? Never on my call, only if I had to be there.
