Pino’s Authentic Italian Restaurant

*I will keep posting this until it sticks*
Latest development — removed from Unilocal for «violating our Content Guidelines or Terms of Services»
There is no way to ‘violate’ the terms of service, since all it says is once you post things on Unilocal,it becomes theirs, and I can’t harass people through Unilocal.
The content guidelines say I can’t:
1. Post inappropriate content.
2. Have a conflict of interest.
3. Have promotional content.
4. Be irrelevant.
5. Compromise someone’s privacy.
6. Steal intellectual property.
7. Talk about experiences that are not mine.
8. Be inaccurate.
9. Update a review without a new experience.
None of these have happened, so I’d be happy if you’d stop reporting my review, Pino’s.
Now onto my deleted review:
Recap of previous review (which was reported and taken down since it ‘didn’t indicate an experience with the restaurant’):
Went there during their hours (at 11am when they are supposed to open), which are stated on their phone message and the door, but they weren’t open, not even after my friend and I piddled around for awhile at the dollar store to wait for someone to get there by 11:30.
I myself would find such a review helpful, as it shows they do not hold their own hours in high regards and you might want to call before you go, but whatever. I also stated my intention to adjust the review once I actually caught them being open when they are supposed to be. I had a coupon and actually had a desire to eat there.
So, fast forward about 2 weeks.
My friend and I were planning on going out to eat, and were possibly going to try Pino’s again, so I called about 15 – 30 minutes before they opened. Nobody answered, so I tried again shortly after they were supposed to be open, but nobody answered still, so I left a message with my name, number, and requested to be notified once they were open.
As I was driving to my friend’s house, I called him to tell him to come outside, but apparently my smartphone went berserk and dialed my last number instead of the 2^nd to last number I had called. So, when a random person answered (turns out, someone at Pino’s), I hung up in confusion.
Then, while I was actually calling my friend to come outside, they called back and left the following message:
«This is Pino’s Restaurant calling. You guys keep calling here and every time I answer the phone you don’t say anything. If it’s not important for you to call here, don’t call anymore.»
To which I responded by not going there, getting a refund for my coupon, and posting this review (which hopefully isn’t removed due to a request by someone who spends more time trying to keep their review on Unilocal good rather than actually giving good service).

Great tasting entrees. Desserts could be improved. Had a
coupon which made it a cool place to try out. Most likely wouldn’t go out of my way to eat here. I would like to try their buffet, which I have heard is very good.

A good value lunch and dinner buffet in a nice clean restaurant, you will always find Pino in the kitchen cooking up some great Italian dishes the lasagna is a favorite but don’t overlook the other dishes, it’s no olive garden this is the real deal Itialian Kitchen

4 of us went to this restuarant today, 5.29.09, and were dissapointed. We cannot complain about the service or drinks, they were very attentive and great. The food, however, was marginal at best. The bread was tasteless, the salad tasted like frozen iceberg, food was not good, girls got the chicken dishes and they were so salty they could not finish. I personally had the sausage and peppers and could not really complain too much about that dish, though the pasta that came with was a little tough. I would not recommend this place at all.
