| - There are few times when a meal can be as hopelessly awful as the one I had at Vannis. I went with my wife and parents and 1 year old.
Service was friendly, but the food... my parents and wife had various pizzas, all bland and with rubbery crusts. I ordered the veal marsala, a favourite of mine, which came with a side of fettuccine Alfredo. If there was a drop off marsala wine in that sauce I'd be amazed. The veal itself was a sad, grey, piece of meat, cooked like it was beef jerky, except with no flavour.
I actually stopped eating the meat, which is the rarest thing for me to do, and decided to console myself with the Alfredo. Bland, starchy sauce, and, a piece of SHARP PLASTIC in it!! For real! In my many years of eating at restaurants around the globe, I never found anything more than an errant hair!
The waiter, or manager, came by, suitably concerned, and said he wouldn't charge me for my meal. But he charged the rest of us. He gave me a pizza as we left, nice, but the wrong move, since I didn't want his lousy pizza.
I think the only one who had a good meal was my boy, but that's because we packed his dinner for him.
Just a lousy 'Italian' restaurant trying to siphon business from Pizza & Pazzi next door.
