We were excited about trying a new restaurant in Ballantyne and found two seats at the bar last night. We were seated by the guy making the pizza's and saw what looked like delicious pizza's coming out the oven. This is why we didn't order one: the guy making the pizza's didn't have gloves on - and at first I thought, well okay, all bacteria will be killed in the hot oven (he was actually scraping the cheese off his fingers - gross) - HOWEVER - when the pizza's came out he added toppings (looked like basil) with his bare hands. The people making the fresh pasta also didn't have gloves on. Sorry - that killed my appetite - we ordered a cheese plate which was very good and had a good bottle of red wine. I was glad I caught the bartender before she opened the wrong bottle for us.
PLEASE have the cooks start wearing gloves and I'll be happy to come back.
