Scaffidi's Tavern - Steubenville

Terrible service and terrible food. Came in and had to wait a good ten minutes before an employee showed up to seat us for lunch. I had the Alfredo, husband the chicken parm and mother in law the fish. The food came out and the waitress dropped it on and literally disappeared from the face of God 's green earth. The chicken parm was barely edible, the fish was inedible and smelled awful, but the true gem was the Alfredo. The sauce was congealed and half the plate was burnt from clearly sitting under a heat lamp. Took one bite and the pasta was raw. How they managed to both not cook the pasta and burn it at the same time is truly a marvel of ineptitude. My mother in law was not happy to put in mildly and we waited patiently for the waitress to come check on us. It never happened. Mother in law walked around the restaurant and even into the kitchen, shouting HELLO? . The waitress magically appeared a half hour later and when we told her about the food her response was, Well, I didn 't cook it! . I was dumbfounded. I will happily celebrate when this place goes out of business. It 's a shame considering the economic state of the city. Stay very far away!!

I never give bad reviews, because I have been in food service all my life. Well, this veal was nasty, oil was old and dirty. I would be ashamed to put this on a plate and serve it. Even made me ill the next day. The service was awesome! She did a great job and was very attentive with us.
