Pierro's Pizzeria - Fayetteville

Short-handed on servers and front of the house staff meant it took them a good while to bring me my drink, salad and bread. Didn't get checked on very frequently at all and I basically had to get other people's attention for my server to come check on me. Staff were cutting up and horsing around and having loud conversations in front of customers that probably were better off being had in private. The food was good, but they need more staff and to be more professional, especially if there are customers around.

I’ll start with the good first. My pasta was pretty good considering it was made in NC. Now that’s done, these garlic knots shouldn’t be called garlic knots. It’s more like baked Hawaiian rolls brushed with olive oil and dusted with parmesan cheese. Then it was ironic that we got served foam cups even though there were only 2 other tables in the entire restaurant. Then even more so, how they ran out of Pepsi... Along with lots of other items they seemed to be out of. The other location on Hay St definitely is better quality. The service was extremely good which was a plus. But overall this is probably the closest you’ll get to somewhat authentic Italian in NC.

The prices aren't high but the portions were tiny. I ordered the lunch ravioli and got a grand total of 4 raviolis on my plate. The food was average at best. If you want a simple Italian meal for cheap go here. If you are looking for a romantic Italian dinner go elsewhere.

The food was ok but the service was not very good, the server had an attitude the whole time for no reason. He also seemed like he didn’t even want to wait on us. He didn’t check to see if we needed anything and when we asked for refills or something, he made a face that made it seem like we were inconveniencing him (there was only one couple dining in there other than us, so I definitely expected a bit better service). We also had a party large enough to sit at two different tables but refused to give us two separate bread baskets. We had to pass the one basket we did get around between the two tables. Which was very weird in my opinion.

Just got back to my hotel room and my salad is frozen. A completely inedible salad after a 15 minute drive back to my hotel. Very disappointed.
