So we'd read and heard about how great Comici was (here as well), and made a booking yesterday for…read moretoday at noon. We arrived promptly at noon. The restaurant was busy but not full yet. The lovely waitress quickly took our drinks order & food order. With the exception of one appetizer order (scallops), we all ordered only a plate of pasta each (Astice, Pomodoro, Funghi, & Vongole). At this point it was barely 12:15.
The food - pasta - was finally brought to the table at almost 14:00.
Nearly. Two. Fucking. Hours.
For pasta.
I would stop there, except the manager (or whatever, can't miss him he looks like Jamie Dimon of JPMorgan), comes by at the end to 'apologize for the short delay'. When I remonstrated with him that it wasn't short at all but nearly two hours, he then basically blames us 'because we all ordered different pastas, & they all have different cooking times'. Ma che cazzo... (e pure che coglione tremendo!)
Save your money, & eat at the Comici Self-Serve outside: fast, tasty, & not full of shit.
