Vesuvio - Pedregal - New York

Wings was raw and ****, the ribs were fat, and the service was terrible.

We were three adults with two (well dressed and well behaved) children at 5 p.m. on a Sunday. The restaurant was half empty and the rude hostess pushed us to a high bar table between a gas station and the kitchen door. According to someone other than the hostess, they were taken to a normal table. The staff was either overwhelmed or just terribly trained. The service took forever, the orders were wrong, and the music was unnecessarily loud. BBQ brisket tasted like it had been hit with a mallet and soaked in liquid smoke. The only good thing I can say about this place is that the onion rings were amazing.

The ribs weren't done enough in our opinion. We haven't fallen away from the bone quality. The taste is good, just not cooked the way I like it.

Enjoyed the food and the ambiance, but the music downstairs was a bit loud, couldn't hear my friends across from me!

I love Virgil's BBQ. The food, the service, the waitresses, the music and the portion of food are great. People are friendly. The price of food is little expensive, but overall the experience is great fun
