  • Don't you just hate it when people tell you how good a restaurant is, and how you really have to go check it out, and then when you finally decide to give it a try, you discover it's absolute crap? Ya, that was my experience with Macaroni Bar. It was a Friday night, and 10 friends and I headed out to this restaurant to celebrate my birthday. The place is very modern and well decorated, with a very nice bar; this is definitely your typical St-Laurent Supper Club. The food however, leaves much to be desired. We all ordered appetizers, and I believe the only decent appetizer were the Tuna Bombs. Nearly all of us ordered a pasta for our main course. With about 5 or 6 different pastas to sample at the table, they were all actually terrible. So bland and tasteless, it was almost like eating cardboard. Not to mention that some people's noodles were overcooked. It was a few forkfulls into the Penne Arrabiata when one of my friends discovered some hard, wood-like foreign element in her pasta. This piece of wood was disovered after biting into it. My very favorite though, was sampling the veal ravioli - I swear I thought I was eating dog food! With the evening going so horribly wrong, I had been drinking vodka for most of the evening, and when I decided to switch to white wine, I ordered a bottle and it ended up being served to me at room temperature. We complained to the manager about the quality of the food, and the piss-temperature wine, and all he had to say was, "That's what the ice bucket is for. The wine came out of our refrigerated wine cellar." Well, somebody clearly forgot to plug in the damn refrigeration unit! He offered to replace our meals, but we all agreed that the food was terrible, and did not want to sample anything further. We spoke to some other people who had dined there that night, and they said their food was fine. None of them ordered pasta though, so who knows, maybe some of the food is half-decent, but seriously, if you call your restaurant Macaroni Bar, I would expect you to be able to boil some noodles properly and whip up a half-decent sauce!
