Cucina Dell'Arte

This place used to be amazing! Charm and delicious food kept us driving back even after we moved 40 minutes north. After the renovation and revamp of the menu, though, it feels like every other generic tapas place that’s trying too hard. Instead of an eclectic interior, it’s now a modern, generic look. Instead of crusty ciabatta bread before dinner, it’s $7 for pita bread and olive tapenade. I will miss the old place.

Cougars and botox galore. I only go on Friday and Saturday nights because they take out the tables and it turns into a cheesy makeshift night club/dance area. They pass out fresh pizza at 2:00 am and the party usually lasts until 3:00 or so. If you love watching pretentious wannabe socialites mingling with the weirdest people on earth, this is the place to see and be seen. Sometimes they are shoulder to shoulder packed so be prepared to get bumped around a lot. Super expensive, I recommend closing your tab after each round if your not a millionaire.

Normally I love Cucina and make a point to come here every time I'm in town. Tonight I received literally the worst service I've ever received in PB. Missing appetizers and drinks that never came, literally a 30 minute wait for our bill, had to ask multiple times for things, etc. To top it off, got our check and then our server ran my card for 20% gratuity without asking.

I've never eaten here but this is the spot to see and be seen at night when they transform the restaurant to a bar/club. It gets packed with locals and winter residents/ visitors. After a few times here you will end up knowing everyone. The drinks are standard, nothing fancy, the crowd is fun, and it's a great place to go and mingle!

Four of us decided to have a drink and brunch as we walked into this most amazing place. Old school cash registers and decor mixed with an open and warm atmospher. Ariel (bartender) recomended a modification of the drink menu item (strawberry jalepeno mule) and it was amazing. Ariel is engaging and fun as are the other servers that interacted with us. Good food, good drink excellent people. We will be back.
