| - While on vacation, we found Francesco's on Yelp. Our meal began with a hair in my salad bowl (perhaps an eyebrow). I asked for and was given a new bowl, and despite my inclination to leave right away, we all ordered linguine. My friend (who is a vegetarian) and I ordered linguine with tomato sauce (as listed on the menu). After my first bite, I realized that the tomato sauce had meat in it. I immediately told my friend, who fortunately had only taken one small bite. When we asked our server about it, she told us that it was an Italian restaurant, and "all Italian restaurants have meat in their tomato sauce." My friend decided not to order anything, and when our check arrived, our server told us that they had only charged for half my friend's meal "since the cook had to make it." She suggested that it was my friend's fault for not telling her that he was a vegetarian. I told the server that the menu should not say tomato sauce if it includes meat, but she still charged my friend for half of the meal. We will not be going back to Francesco's, and I would recommend others to find a different Italian restaurant.
