| - Burntwood used to be really good, but I think they've gone downhill in the last couple years.
We made reservations for our group and were quickly seated upon arrival. Everyone was friendly and the service was pretty good.
The meal was kind-of like the name of that old movie, 'The Good, The Bad and The Ugly.'
The good- I had a side salad that was pretty tasty, although it was a little overdressed. I can overlook the slight soppiness because the flavors were decent. Lobster bisque- Also good, no complaints, it was a decent bowl of soup.
The bad- My husband got a burger of which I took a bite. To me, it tasted dry and bland, but I didn't say anything. When we left, I asked how he liked his burger. His exact response: "It sucked. I'd never go back."
The Ugly- I ordered a margherita flatbread. It arrived and, I kid you not, there were *maybe* two pieces of basil torn into 4 pieces, a smattering of mozzarella cheese, and the most anemic looking tomatoes ever to see the light of day. It was dry as all get-out and the flatbread itself was like cardboard. In fact, I believe cardboard would have tasted better. The whole thing was bland. The cheese didn't even have any flavor. It's cheese! I mean, how do you have cheese with no flavor?!?!?!? My husband tried it and said, 'This is horrible. How do you even serve this to people?'
**In the other reviews I saw someone posted a picture of a really good looking margherita pizza. This made me really angry, food angry (and who likes to be angry about food?) because mine looked NOTHING like the tasty one in that picture. Mine looks like it came from hell's kitchen. And I don't mean the show. If you're going to put something on your menu, there needs to be consistency from one plate to another.
