"Great review on L’Unita, when I first read the header I thought “oh no, another stellar review of a third rate restaurant”.
Your experience was pretty close to ours ( my wife and I ) several weeks ago:
We arrived, stood around at the front of the restaurant waiting to be seated, greeted the same way you where about to be shown our table when a homeless person entered, we where then abandoned as a the server and homeless person had a lengthy conversation over the use of a telephone. Finally our server sat us down, came back after 2 mins. and then greated us like he had never seen us before. I looked over the wine list and saw little I recognized, I asked the server what was good, he relied “everything is good” and disappeared in great haste.
When the waiter returned we where asked if we would like Focaccia and we said yes, a few minutes latter plain cold white bread was delivered, no olive oil offered or in site.
The rest of the food was pretty bland and uninspired, like a Greek restaurant trying to be Italian, total amateurs.
Everything was so bad we passed on desert and coffee and asked for our check, waited about 15 mins. and decided just to get up and start walking out to see if that would bring some response, it did. We were asked if we enjoyed everything, we said no, and did they want to give us our bill or should we just leave.
I would not go back for free.
