Pasta Cafe Italian Bistro

Service:[1] • Atmosphere:[2]

• Nothing.
• Terrible service.

“Our first visit the restaurant was very busy. We were ignored by the hostess for over 15 minutes. We were then told we had to wait 25 minutes. 45 minutes later we left. We decided to give the restaurant a second chance since it was so busy. This time 4/18/09 it was not busy. There were at least 15 empty tables. We were told we had to wait 5 minutes. 15 minutes later we left. No one even noticed and we were the only people waiting. Believe me there will not be another chance for this terrible restaurant.”

• Nothing.
• Incompetent and silly.

“I tried to order take out wings - all I got was a bunch of giggling on the phone. The order taker was apparently having fun and horsing around with a co-worker.”

• The calamari was good. .
• Filthy place. .

“Poorly managed. Restaurant is dirty. Dirty glasses, dirty silverware. The food was decent but took forever to arrive. Rowdy patrons, snotty nosed kids running amok. This is nothing but an overpriced chucky cheese. Will never return. .”

Cattle Bron Steak Seafood Rest

• Food, atmosphere.
• Service, management.

“We found the food to be delicious and well prepared, but the service was atrocious. We were basically forgotten, and had to ask other wait staff and even the hostess to assist us. As we left, I informed the manager of the poor service, but he seemed disinterested in correcting the problem, mumbling something about how it was an anomaly and that I should have brought it up earlier in the evening. He left me with the impression that no corrective action would be taken. I could forgive occasional poor service, but not poor service combined with a lackadaisical manager. From now on, we will avoid the cattle baron and seek other steak & seafood houses in Ruidoso.”

• Takes reservations.
• Service and food was disgusting.

“Fifteen minutes after we were seated, the waiter took our order. There were 4 of us and we ordered 2 shrimp cocktails, one chocolate dessert, and one pizza. 45 minutes later, the food was brought to the table; the shrimp were warm on a plate, not even on ice! They say it comes with cocktail sauce on the menu but it was a marinera (sp) type of sauce and when I asked for cocktail sauce I was told they didn't serve that. The waiter never refilled our glasses; the two that ordered the shrimp ate one shrimp each and could go no further with the warm shrimp or the horrible sauce. There was no attempt to adjust the bill at all. Service was disgusting just like the food.”
