When you think Mario Batali..what comes to mind?  Fat italian dude with the reputation of cranking out some of the best looking and tasting dishes....right?  Wrong! This place is horrible.  I ate here on a Friday afternoon and there were hardly any customers.  It still took over an hour to get my pasta out.  The sauce was decent but the handmade pasta was a disappointment.  There's a reason why this place was empty while the neighboring restaurants had long lines.
