| - I keep asking myself, "Self? Why didn't you just stick with your reservation at Fresco rather than going to Biaggi's"? Then I remember suddenly that I am lazy. Well, actually I didn't feel like going downtown even though it's much closer to my house than Biaggi's. I will never forgive myself for this decision.
The night started with my boyfriend calling to make to see how long of a wait there was. We wanted a heads up before we got there to find it was a 45 minutes waiting time. We were told about 15 minutes so we asked to reserved a table.
Get there about 20 minutes later and approx 60% of the restaurant was actually occupied. I highly doubt that in the 20 minutes we drove there, the restaurant suddenly cleared out meaning, we should have been seated immediately and didn't actually need to RSVP a table. The hostess could have made this known to us.
Anyway, get seated and our server seemed like she was too busy to take the time to break and actually, you know... serve. Considering she only had 3-4 tables from what I could see, I am not sure what her rush was.
Boyfriend ordered the spaghetti and meatballs which he seemed to be OK with. I ordered the Baked Penne Sardi. Absolutely disgusting. The sun dried tomato cream sauce was extremely watery and had no seasoning or flavor. Cream sauces should not be watery based. They are thick! Now, I am not one who likes a lot of salt but I had to load the pasta with salt and pepper to even find it the slightest bit tasteful which didn't seem to resolve my problem. After 5 bites, I was done. I pushed my plate to the side.
I would have made my dislike of the dish known to waitress but she seemed to avoid our table. She didn't even bring our meal out to us. Another server did. When she did come by, she could have commented on my dish still being practically untouched. She looked at the dish, asked if everything was OK and before I could even answered, she picked up the plate and was headed off. Poor service. Poor food. My only reason for giving it 2 stars is the location and decor. Parking lot sucks but considering the restaurants wasn't even close to being full (despite what the hostess stated to us over the phone!), we easily found a park.
I feel inclined to give Biaggis another go but it will take a lot of me to return. Now that I think about it, Fazoli's would have been a much better option over Biaggi's.
Shame on me for being lazy and not sticking with Fresco.
