On our way back from a midsummer-weekend day spent in the park, we saw the newly built Winery Hotel and decided to stop in and see if we could grab a bite. Unfortunately, it being a holiday, they closed the main restaurant. Which, was a bummer, but easily expected here in Sweden.
We ended up in their little Italian fast-casual concept place, since that was still open. Everyone ordered from their daily menu of pasta dishes, salads and pizza. The salad I got was just flippin' gross. A caesar with cold rubbery chicken, slimy prosciutto and really watery dressing. I think ICA could have done better. The pasta was tomato and noodles. Literally nothing else. No flavor. Nada. The Blanco pizza was just ok. It had hardly any sauce! I also didn't like that they cooked the pizza and then put cold oily artichoke hearts on top. Why not roast them on the pizza too? WTF!?
I felt like everything here wasn't really "cooked"... but just "assembled." Which, is weird since it took over 35 minutes to get our order (fast-casual my ass!) I also think that the attitude we got when asking for them to take back the yucky pasta and salad and replace them with pizza instead was pretty unnecessary. The waitstaff here just plain sucked. Even when asking for something so simple as refill of water we were met with a miserable grunt and a look of distaste. Not a single word. Not a "Oh sure! not a problem" or a "I would be happy to"... just a caveman like "Euhhhhh" in response. Well... to tell you the truth that just about sums up how I feel about it here... "Euhhhhhh!" read more
