We took the kids out for pizza at a family favorite, Lou Malnati's. My husband and kids ordered pizza, but I was in the mood for something else. Baked Mostacolli. So everything comes, and I take a bite of my penne pasta with a ladle full of goop on top. Baked nothing! It was awful. In fact, it tasted like Chef Boy R Dee Chili on top of pasta (and that's giving Chef Boy R Dee a bad name). I couldn't even finish it. Honestly, I could hardly start it. Three bites max is all I ate, and when we mentioned it to the server---there was no offer of changing items, or even having it removed from our bill.
Now, I'm not usually one to complain to the restaurant staff. I had a friend who would eat 3/4 of her meal--and then complain just to get it for free. This was not my intent--but it was so bad, it had to be mentioned. But NOTHING!
I waited while the kids finished up and off we went (very LOW tip). We stopped at McDonald's on the way home--I got a Big Mac. It was HEAVEN compared to that garbage!
Pros: Short Wait
Cons: Over Priced, Un-helpful staff
