    The dining room.
    J F.

    Maybe some of the menu is as good as Cucina Antica seems to think it is, but we tried a couple of basics and were disappointed. The bland pizza dough might have been recently defrosted. The pasta was fresh, but clumpy. The meatballs were large and boring. The sauce was based on uncooked tomatoes, but insufficiently spiced (and probably should have been stirred more frequently). One of the two parties of friends we saw there recommended the Nutella cake. It might have been yummy warm; fresh from the fridge left us cold, and didn't really taste like Nutella. The cook stopped by to check in, and we gave him thumbs up. When he'd gone, my eight-year-old companion said, "It's good but not great." That's all you need to know.

    Chef William has created a fun family place with delicious homey Italian cuisine. Casual and cosey, with local beer on tap, you'll be pleasantly surprised. Pizzas baked with their own in-house crust, plus a whole wheat crust option. Good ravioli specials. And the wait staff is very friendly.

    Alfredo doesn't have much flavor. Hours are basic. Add some seasoning to basically everything and it will be good.

    Hanging over you as you wait for your food, there is a Wendell Berry poem reminding you that the…read morestars and the herons and other wild things "do not tax their lives with forethought of grief." My partner and I had ample time to read, ponder, and ponder again. We came to the conclusion that Folino's wields the poem as a sort of psychological weapon. We ordered two small pizzas. We were told they would take 15 to 20 minutes to make. Folino's was not busy. When the 20 minute mark hit, we looked around, and I pointed out to my partner that it looked like two pizzas had just gone into the oven. We read the poem again. At the 30 minute mark, when the two pizzas came out, I got a look at them, and they looked like exactly what we had ordered. I smiled, glad to be filling my growling belly soon, and read the poem one last time. Wendell Berry urged "peace." I waited for the cashier to call our name. Another ten minutes passed. Workers laughed with each other, and more pizzas went into the oven. I gathered my shame -- Wendell Berry says worries are unnatural things! -- and asked the cashier for an update on our order. She told us they were working on it. I read the poem again. Imagine our surprise when, one full hour after we'd placed our order, the cashier walked to the *original* two pizzas we'd seen go into the oven, and finally call our name. They'd been sitting on the counter for 30 minutes, enjoying their own "peace." Does Folino's think reminding us that wild animals would gladly eat cold pizza is going to convince us their service is good? That it's the natural state of the world? Hire some adult humans, next time, maybe. This is a restaurant, not the wilderness!

I have read that the service can be slow. That is to be expected if your food is being prepared to order. Lasagna? Amazing! My favorite and first entrée I ever ordered is Linguine Alle Pescatore. Yum! Prices, in today's dollars, are reasonable and comparable (less, even) to a couple of Italian restaurants in downtown Burlington. Go here!

The ambience was nothing to talk bout, but it was a snowy Tuesday night so you can't expect much. A bit dark and cold, like a Nonna's basement. Service was great: prompt, polite and attentive. The food was the problem. Caesar salad was great, no complaints there. My wife got a Pinot Grigio that was meh, but at $9 a glass, it was expected. I ordered a Pappardelle bolognese, and it was a disaster. The noodles were good, the bolognese was murder; too much of it, so much it was dry, it was quite frankly off-putting, looked like dog food. I tried eating it so I picked at only the noodles but I just couldn't, it didn't taste right. I should've taken a picture, I just didn't want to be rude, and I don't send food back. My wife got a Mushroom Risotto and it was plain and a bit 'al dente. I ended up eating that with her and even so we ate about half the portion. Portions however were huge! If other dishes are better presented and/or better tasting, you are getting more than your money's worth, alas, it was not so for the dishes we picked.
