I went to Pietros with 3 other girls and we managed to find food that avoided meat, shellfish, and peanuts. Whew! We split a large Insalata Mista as an appetizer, which was gigantic and way too much food for 4 people's apps. We also split a medium Bianca pizza and a medium Gardinera pizza. The Bianca was probably the most disappointing white pizza I've ever had - neither the cheese nor the herbs had strong enough flavor. The Gardinera was better, but still not amazing. Maybe if we had ordered a meat/shellfish/peanut pizza, it would have been better...

First off, there's a $20 cover. Most clubs do, but $20, even for ladies, is stupid. Secondly, the bartenders suck. The ones on the corner and upper seating area are alright, but the ones by the far wall are terrible. Buying drinks at a bar is a simple exchange: I pay a 1500% inflated mark-up on a beverage and tip you an extra buck or two because you shoved your cleavage in my face. Instead, you wore a fleece pullover because it was cold. Do your job. Show me your cleavage. I'll give you a dollar. Cocktails are tiny and beer selection is very narrow. The crowd at clubs is typicall hit or miss, but this time I struck out looking. I know the brothers like the big girls, but not my cup of tea. Other nights it's Asian night, the next it's wear-your-Versace-shades-indoors night. It's totally my fault, though. I don't like clubs but I still go (albeit for friends' birthdays). Hiro isn't a hero. You know who's a real hero? Hiro. From Heroes.

Now this is strictly a review of the after-hours scene. Went here on a Sat night with some friends from Houston and New York, so expectations were pretty high. Parking - Complimentary Valet (a def plus) Cover - $10 that night for the guys only (we came around 1145) Crowd - Mixed crowd at first then became predominantly Asian Music - Mostly your top 40 hits; would have been nice if the DJ mixed better that night Drinks - They came strong and all I can say is they did their job; the price wasn't too bad ranging from $8-$12 Atmosphere - The decor was really nice but the crowd wasn't really dancing all that much (prolly cuz the music) and those that did, should have just sat their buts down! Restrooms - uber clean!! I was quite impressed, but the really clean ones were upstairs! All in all, it was a good drink at best. If we ever came back in town, we'd go back just to try the food.
