It was a simple request made to our waiter ?do you have any bread?...no I?m sorry sir we ran out a few minutes ago?? No problem until I saw the manager sneak a basket of bread to a booth two tables away. I pointed it out to our waiter, but got no response. A few minutes later, I saw the manager bring another basket of the undercover bounty to another table. We felt absolutely unwanted! Again pointing it out to our waiter we just received a smile. Service here is unacceptable poor, and it requires knowing an owner to get a basket of bread. This is NOT Babbo, yet the staff seem to think it is. The food is good, although the service and poor ambience make it a better choice for take out, if at all. Pros: The food is better that average for a neighborhood Italian joint Cons: The service is unacceptably poor more
