Villa Italia

We have a nice stay there. Clean rooms. its a very cosy place there. The balaton lake ist very close, i mean 50 meters from the guesthouse. it was very clean and the restaurant tipical italian. the center is 5 min by car or 15 min ti walk

So... We went to villa italia as the restaurant looked inviting and the menu was good. We sat down at the table and waited 10 minutes before the water came asked if we needed a menu. 10 minutes later the same waiter returned with no menu and asked us what we would like to drink, we said we don't know yet as we would like to see a menu, he rolled his eyes as he walked away to get us a menu. Another 10 minutes past before he brought us the menu. We chose our drinks and food and sat waiting for the waiter to return for a further 20minutes!! We ordered our food and a ash tray. within two minutes our starter arrived at the table. We had the bruschetta. Nothing to shout about. 3 bruchetta with cold tomatoes dumped on it and a slice of ham. We had to eat it with our fingers because we hadn't been given any knives or folks! Our ashtray arrived after the third time we asked for it. Before we had even finished the starter our main course arrived. Still NO knife, folk or serviette! My boyfriend had ordered the gnocci with rocotta and bacon but looked like pasta in tomato soup. It was boiling hot! Steam coming from the food. Clearly heated in a microwave and definitely not fresh. I had ordered the prawns in garlic spaghetti again a microwave job as it was piping hot on the top, warm in the middle and cold on the bottom. The spaggetti was all stuck together, the prawns or should i say shrimp were smaller than my little finger nail. The two shelled prawns place on top of the dish were rubber and so bad the shells would not peel off. There were 7 whole garlic cloves in the dish of food!! 7! The food took less than 10 minutes to cook 2 starters and 2 main courses??! The service was extremely poor! The waiters were very unprofessional and impolite! I watched two tables be served their food at different times. The lady had finished her pizza when the gentleman she was with received his! Very very unhappy with this restaurant. Please don't waste your money!!!

We decided to eat Italian last night as it is my favourite. We had visited the restaurant in the day and checked out the menu. It looked good, plenty of choice and good prices. In the evening two people decided they couldn't be bothered to go out so I suggested getting a takeaway from here. Had a beer whilst I waited for the food to be done and thirty minutes later it was. Gorgeous pizzas supplied in normal take away boxes made it all very easy. Going back tonight to actually eat in the restaurant.
