Saw that this restaurant had fairly good reviews,so went along with quite a positive attitude hoping for some rustic homecooked food,
hmmm,
not quite,
ordered stuffed veal ,was not cooked all way through and very tough,sent it back to cook further,when it came back it was ovious they had just poured more of that terrible sauce over it hoping to mask the rawness(it was still raw and cold)the pre cooked frozen carrots were also cold and the over cooked the red cabbage was also cold,the potatoes were ok,kinda lumpy creamy mash,
had cannelinni,the bolognaise style sauce it came with was like a bought in tinned sauce,pretty bad,
the waiter brought over some of that terrible dried up powdered parmesan,
i asked if he had any fresh but he didnt as it was to expensive,
ordered a calzone(pizza pasty)OMG
this was bad,the pasrty was like a child ade it in school,oviously the pastry hadnt been given enough time to prove,had a bitter taste,
worst one ive ever tasted,
the waiter mentioned that theve been open since 1975,i think its time for them update the recipe and menu,
if they make the menu smaller and use better quality ingredients they will become really popular,
the restaurant decor itself isnt bad,
but maybe if they want to have chefs on show in an open pizza kitchen in the front then maybe the chef shouldnt stand there picking his nose as he did whilst i was eating(was the bitter taste on the calzone extra flavour from his nose).
cmon tivoli your better than this old fashioned 70s kitch,
people have a more developed palette than what your serving,
get fresh parmesan.
