We are invited to a birthday celebration at Cinzetti's this past week. I'm not a fan of buffets first of all because they cost more than they are worth to me. I can only eat about a half cup of food before I'm stuffed! Second of all, they usually taste like cafeteria food. Overpriced cafeteria food is not something to be excited about.I was immediately impressed with this place. I liked that you can see the cooks adding fresh food to each buffet section. They even had a crepe station where the guy makes the crepe right in front of you and you add whatever innards you want! They have a pasta row, a pizza row, a meat row and what seemed to be a fried food's row. You can also find your typical salads.
I scooped up a bite of just about everything that looked appealing to sample it all! I was brave and tried their fried calamari. It was great! I loved it! I also really enjoyed their Pesto Pasta. The pasta of the day was Pene in was a creamy four pepper sauce. I would suggest they put that on their permanent menu.
I was in heaven with the dessert row! I was impressed that they had actual Italian desserts including Gelato, Connoli, tiramisu and many others.
Most of the food was of buffet quality. There were a few dishes that were certainly worth getting more of. We liked their Bruschetta, pizza and the pasta of the day the most.I probably wont go back for the reasons I first stated but for a buffet, this place is pretty fancy! Our waiter told us that on Saturday's they have brunch with breakfast foods that are worth checking out! Weekday dinner is $13 something per person. They are more pricey Friday-Sunday but weekday lunches are cheaper so that is certainly the best time to check this place out!
