I originally checked out Vapiano Restaurant because my brother told me about it. Ā My first thought when I walked in the door and they handed me a card (what they call a chip card) was "college". Ā You use the card to order all of your food, drinks, dessert, etc. Ā That's exactly whatI did in my college cafeteria years, swipe everything I wanted. Ā But, I was surprised at my overall experience. Ā The food was amazing and I absolutely loved watching my food be cooked right in front of me. Ā Awesome! Ā I've been there 4 times within the last 4 months, so I guess you can say I'm a fan. Ā I put together 2 list that I hope are helpful when you have your first Vapiano experience. Ā
Things to Do:
1. Ā Find a table before ordering - the last thing you want to do is walk around with your food and no table to sit at.
2. Ā Make your menu selection before you're in front of the chef/cook - you don't want to be the one that holds up the line behind you.
3. Ā Ask the chef to add your favorites to the dish - a little garlic, red pepper or fresh pepper won't hurt.
4. Ā Try different pasta - the pasta is made fresh and they have a great variety. Ā You won't be disappointed.
Don't:
1. Ā Don't leave your table unattended - it's important to clam your territory, especially on a Friday or Saturday night. Ā This restaurant gets crowded at night, so your group better leave a scarf, book or something to claim your table before everyone gets up to place their orders.
2. Ā Don't take all of your friend's cards to the bar to order drinks - by the time you get to the bar you never remember which card belongs to each friend. Ā The cards are identical.
3. Ā Don't leave your food behind if you're full - they have the cutest to-go-dishes and they are perfect to re-use. Ā Just ask the wait staff walking around for a to-go-box/dish.
The only reason they don't get a perfect score from me is because I hate waiting in line and on Friday and Saturday nights you will wait just a bit. Ā Other than that it's the perfect spot for girls night out or a date. Ā Have fun and enjoy the food. Ā It's Pasta Time at Vapiano's! Ā
