Pizzaria Bianco restaurant review
Nicole over at BaconandBakin has put together the most comprehensive review of Pizzaria Bianco I’ve ever read. From the wait to get in to the lack of dessert Nicole describes Bianco with detail.
Although Bianco doesn’t open until 5 p.m., crowds of people gather at its entrance long before opening time just so they can be guaranteed a spot in the first or second seating. The first time I went to Pizzeria Bianco, my family had planned on arriving at 3:45. We turned in the wrong place and couldn’t find the street and ran into myriad other problems, but we eventually found it–at 4:15. By this time, we were already about 75-80 people back in the line, but we decided to stick it out. Once the restaurant’s doors opened, the lucky people at the start of the line were ushered inside, seated, and served pizza. The rest of us were forced to continue waiting online–another 40-45 minutes–just to add our names to a list, one containing enough parties to constitute a three-hour wait. We decided to stick that out, too, and waited another 45-50 minutes. Figuring we’d have our orders ready far in advance, my family gathered at the menu posted on the window to ogle the descriptions of the doughy disks. My grandfather looked at the menu and decided that nothing looked good. I nearly cried. And yes, I was in a foul mood the rest of the evening.
Review (Thanks Nicole!)
