| - I have been to many Oregano's around town but this one is by far the worst one yet. Took the family to eat lunch on a weekday. We ordered the calamari, order of hot wings, and a stuffed pizza.
When the drink order came, our waitress (some big chested short blonde lady) forgot the lemons to the water. When one of us asked if we could get lemons for the passion fruit tea, the waitress curtly replied, "We don't put lemons in passion fruit tea." When asked to get some any way, she begrudgingly went and got some for the tea.
The calamari... disappointment. The calamari itself was okay, but I didn't expect the best. The problem was the lack of portion. There wasn't enough to even cover the plastic plate it was served on. Just some scattered about on a large plastic plate. If the portions are going to be this small, at least put it on a smaller plate to make it LOOK LIKE the portions are larger. Just try a little bit harder.
The hot wings... good. I was pleasantly surprised.
The stuffed pizza... first, if you are a regular at Oregano's you know that stuffed pizza take a long time, but generally they are worth it. Not this time. When we got our pizza, the pizza crust was thin as paper. Worst of all, the ENTIRE bottom was burnt! Not just spots of burnt crust... THE ENTIRE BOTTOM CRUST was BURNT.
The time we were there, we saw our original waitress (big chested short haired blonde) twice. Then I saw her leave and not say bye or let us know she was leaving. So we did not get to see another waiter for awhile. When we finally got our bill, I was very surprised. They charged $2 for some jalapenos we had asked for. It was billed as extra toppings for the pizza, but the jalapenos weren't enough to cover a large stuffed pizza. That was my last straw, I hate getting nickeled and dimed out of little things like extra condiments or pickles.
I really wanted to like this place since it is the closet to our home, but I will not be going back.
