My wife and I decided to try some place different for brunch this past Sunday. We ventured to Little Italy and noticed Utopia had a near full house - always a good sign, we thought. The atmosphere seemed nice and we got a good table near the window. Once the surly, unsmiling (miserable) waiter came to our table - the good feelings ended. It was 1:05 pm when we ordered our meal (bacon and eggs). At 1:45 we still had not been served. I finally went up to the waiter and asked for a status. He snarled that one of the dishes was ready and he was waiting for the other. I went back to the table and we waited another few minutes. All the time, the one dish was sitting on the ledge (not heated) getting cold. The waiter then took a phone call and that was it. For the first time in my life - I threw down a $5 dollar bill for the coffee we had been served and we stalked out. By then we were famished and went into the first place we could find - Cafe Diplomatico. The breakfast was only so-so - but the service was fast and incredibly pleasant. One more thing - we also noticed that we were not the only one's unhappy with our experience and meal at Utopia - most of the people were only eating half of their meals. One of the worst restaurant experiences of our lives!
