L Martin Review of Carelli's of Boulder
My husband and I took our daughter and her boyfrie...
My husband and I took our daughter and her boyfriend here for her Grad school graduation. Very slow and inattentive service! Took a full 30 minutes for our one appetizer to arrive. 15 minutes later another appetizer arrived with 'our compliments'. We instantly felt better until, after one of our group sampled it, it was quickly grabbed off the table as it was meant to appease another group. We didn't get a chance to tell our server that the appetizer had been already sampled. Our main course took about 40 MINUTES to arrive and all four dishes were not good. My husband's Chicken Saltimbocca had very rubbery and undercooked chicken. My Mussels were very fishy and 'off-tasting' and others who sampled it thought something was wrong with it. My daughter's boyfriend ordered his favorite dish of Chicken Piccata. When his dish arrived he didn't start eating. When we asked why, he was actually waiting for the chicken portion to arrive separately! Guess what? There were a few meager chicken pieces buried within the dish so that was it! He was so disappointed. My daughter had the tortellini. After we finally left, she started getting sweaty and did not feel well. She was up all night with horrible diarrhea. To add insult to injury, there were some random items plopped on our table by other staff members...napkins and extra water glasses. All four of us felt it was one of the worst restaurant experiences we have ever had. The food poisoning issue is a serious concern. Our visit was on 5/8/2019.
