Why did I decide to check out La Berttola instead of going to Terroni? I have no idea, maybe I wanted to try something new. Boy, was that a mistake. Walking in, I didn't know seats were so limited in there I would have to sit at a bar. When you go to a restaurant with more than 2 people and you sit at a bar....that's already going downhill, how am I suppose to talk to the 3rd person thats sitting a seat away from me? Anyways, I didn't do my research- I guess that's my fault. Walking in, I was pleasantly surprised to see such a small space decorated with so much attention to detail.
Ordered: Crostino Piemonte 1/5
* Beef tartar on crostino with duck zabaglione and black truffle shavings for $16.00
* This comes with 2 large pieces of crostino which is also served with a side salad
* I love beef tartar but this was the worst one I had ever in my life
* This was so sour and tangy in every way possible it was so unplesant
* I am sure it's suppose to taste like how it does but I just did not like it at all
* Because it was so sour I felt like I was eating something that was rancid and gone bad
* I would never order this again
Ordered: C'T Mang 2/5
* White pizza with Mozzarella, Gorgonzola, Pears, Walnuts, Smoked Prosciutto and Honey for $16.00
* This was something I wanted to try for the longest time
* Personally I don't like fruits in my food, so this was somewhat of an adventure for me
* I also forgot the fact that I really can not do blue cheese (gorgonzola) when I ordered this
* This pizza is very peculiar in terms of taste
* Everything does go very well together in terms of flavor but I just did not enjoy it
* There was just too much going on with the crunchy pear, salty prosciutto, stinky gorgonzola and sweet honey
* I really wanted to like this but it just didn't work out for me
Ordered: Tonnarelli Cacio e Pepe 4/5
* With Pecorino Romano and Black Pepper served with al dente Chitarra Spaghetti for $17.00
* On the menu, they say 'very' al dente and they are right
* Pasta was the most al dente pasta I've ever tasted
* Simple sauce for the pasta was very plesant and mild
* This was my favorite dish out of the entire meal
Ordered: Agnolotti di Manzo con Burro e Salvia 3/5
* Handmade Agnolotti stuffed with braised beef in butter, sage and parmigiano for $17.00
* 8 pieces of Agnolotti (Ravioli) was very soft throughout
* Sauce was clear but very rich with the butter and parmigiano sprinkled on top
* Everything was a little too soft for my likings (don't like raviolis to begin with)
This meal was pretty disappointing because I always enjoy my food at Terronis. I know that I did not enjoy my meal here because I obviously went out of my comfort zone and ordered things I normally wouldn't order.
It's unfortunate because the service was so much better than what I normally get dining at Terroni. Although my food experience here is mostly based on what I ordered- that is big part of dining experience- so I can't help it but to choose Terroni over La Bertolla Terroni if I was craving some pasta.
Summary: La Bertolla Terroni is similar to Terroni but with smaller seating area and limited menu items. I would recommend this place for lunch if you were in the area but personally, I prefer to go to Terroni.
