| - The kindest way that I can describe my experience this evening is to say that Grimaldi's is underwhelming. Our waitress was very nice, but on the whole, the waiters/waitresses and managers seem to congregate around the stone ovens, largely neglecting the customers. A woman sitting near us accidentally knocked over her water glass, and it spilled over the table and onto her. We offered her our napkins, but it took at minimum 10 minutes for her waiter to notice the spill or even check on them to see if they needed a refill.
My mom's Sierra Mist was flat and tasteless, and even our waitress confused it with the water on the table. When we told her how tasteless it was, she brought us lemonade instead (at our request) which was watered down and flavorless.
The small, thin-crust pizza we ordered took 30 minutes to get to us, and when it did, it was not worth the wait. Parts of the crust were burnt and other parts were undercooked. The cheese was stringy and flavorless; the cheese on Costco pizza literally tastes and looks fresher and has more flavor. The sauce did not taste fresh--more like it had been resurrected from a can. Some of the pepperonis on the pizza were cooked; most were wholly uncooked. We ate the pizza because we were starving and tired, and now my stomach feels off. If I could turn back time, we would have gone to pretty much any other restaurant.
Spend your money elsewhere.
UPDATE: This place definitely got me sick--had a stomachache when I went back home.
