Pretty Disappointing.
We'll start with the one positive thing.. the bread is delicious! But with that being said... on the menu it reads that should you request extra bread it will cost you $3.00 because the supplier is charging more. $3.00?! I better get more than just one extra basket!
Reading many reviews and being a big fan of Novecento, this was disappointing. The service lacked incredibly!! No smile, no introduction, no recommendations!! For my first time and with all these reviews you would think they'd have some pride to talk to you about the place and the must haves.
We started with the Parma salad... WEAK! It was absolutely boring and I tasted more olive juice than an actual dressing. Next we had the Greens Juliana it was so salty, that the Parma salad could've used some of that! For entree's we ordered Chicken Parmesan- Overcooked and boring, that dish came out and I stared and said wow.. that looks pathetic. I took a bite of the side pasta... the most overcooked noodles you could get with what canned tomato sauce?! Add some basil or something to bump it up! If I need to put salt on pasta... WHAT?! Mind blown. I ordered the Mushroom Parpadelle- bland bland oh did I mention bland? With pieces of I believe pancetta it could save this dish but no.. It fails. It was almost as if they just cooked some mushrooms and dumped it on the noodles without really creating a "sauce."
My moms been talking about going here for months.. Looks like I won't be returning or taking her.
