Alessio's Restaurant & Pizzeria

Go anywhere else but here. If you don't mind the frozen/reheated meals, the poorly tended kitchen, and the servers with no time for you, then maybe the trick to turn you around are the numerous health violations witnessed in the hour we were there.

We ordered eggplant parm and the pesto pasta. Drinks had to be reordered, since they didn't all make it the first time. Eggplant was overcooked, pesto was made with too much basil, and was returned. Bread didn't make it out until the busboy noticed it was missing. Food was dropped, and server disappeared. Refills were handled by the only working server on the floor--who unfortunately was not ours.

The worst was watching the front of house staff blatantly ignore basic cleanliness rules. Wrapping flatware with hands that had just cleared dirty dishes. Handling money, phones, and hair, and then touching food plates to deliver to tables. Hanging the cloth used to wipe down tables and chairs over the container with clean flatware.

Asked to speak to the manager. She made eye contact with me, and spent 20 minutes talking to a couple at the bar, despite repeated eye contact. Asked again, and she looked me straight on, and went back to conversation.

I have found out I met the owners some time back. Not sure what they are thinking, but problems like this start at the top. I value my health, and when my 11 yo can find health violations, it is time to move on. They will not be getting our business again.

Great food, but make sure you check your to go orderbefore leaving the restaurant. Our last two orders were each missing something but it's a great place.

its expensive and primo pizza its next to it much cheaper!!! if they lowered the prices I would go there 2-3 times a week just like I do at primo pizza!!
