Reviews for DelMonaco
I stopped at Del monaco this morning in Kirkland to buy pizza dough. I also was going to get natas as they are delicious. I got there at 9 am when they opened, because it was convenient for me right after doing my groceries. I saw they had no pizza dough in the counter so just asked politely: sorry do you have pizza dough? The answer was, in a very rude & annoyed tone: Lady I literally just opened the door!! I was shocked but still said: maybe you have some in the back? No I have to make it I just opened the store! He was almost screaming at me. I got out of there with a knot in my stomach & went to buy it at Cavallaro.
You don't have pizza dough from the day before? Fine. You need to make new one? Fine. I understand that. It's not a crazy idea to think you might have some in the fridge behind?? A normal answer would be: sorry I don't have any this morning, I have to make fresh one. To which I would have replied: no problem. & then you smile ?
Instead, I got out of there confused as to why someone would be so rude to me. I always ask with a smile. I'm a soft spoken person. & to be clear, I am not complaining that they did not have the product. I am complainingabout the rudeness.
Well I will never go back there. I never want to feel this yucky feeling of being spoken to like that. It's a shame as they have great products. I saw the natas on my way out but had no desire to buy anything, as I did not want to spend one more minute with that frustrated rude man.
Best place for pizza dough & sauce in the west, all the prepped meals are fantastic too.
I really like the products & the store. However'shrinkflation' has set in, what used to be a 1kg bag of pizza dough, is now 900g. We used to make 4 250g pizzas, now it's 225g each or 3 250g ones with dough left over, while it certainly helps the diet not to have as much, I think most people understand inflation, rising costs etc... I, & I would guess many others, would rather pay the extra & get the 1kg bag back.
I came here to try their Zeppoles & they were incredible! The dough & ricotta filling were very fresh.
Great place to pick up a fresh meal to go or some even better, a lasagna. Want to make pizza at home, grab a dough ball, & make it how you like it!
