| - My husband and I always go to the Chianti's on Macleod Trail but this time we found ourselves close to DT so we went to this location on 17th Ave. I always order the chicken cacciatore since it's tasty and a big portion.
When our food arrived, I thought the color of the food was a little off but didn't think much of it. When I started eating it, the taste was also odd, I started digging through the pile of vegetables on top and noticed the big sticks of celery and carrots (wow, they didn't even bother chopping these), the long onions I pulled out were burnt to the crisp, this was making the rest of the meal taste way off. Then I began to inspect the chicken, turned it over and this was also burnt! The pasta on the plate was not even pasta, it was more like chinese noodles!!! My husband order the chicken parm
which also had chinese noodles, these had no taste at all!
Needles to say I sent the plate back with all my findings left on top, pointed then out to the waitress so she could show the chef what quality of food he was letting out of his kitchen, not too much pride in his work, that's for sure.
We did receive plenty of apologies from the waitress and manager but we will definitely not be back nor will we encourage our friends to do so.
Italian restaurant? Far from it!
