He had to ask for more sauce. But the new sauce was obviously whipped up in a rush and tasted a bit watered down. Morgan also paid extra 5 dollars for adding a few slices of chicken which was only slightly charred and had very little flavor. I was not expecting top notched pasta dishes here because we were not at Ask for Luigi, but I thought  they should be at least restaurant quality? The whole plate of food costs over 20 bucks and it\u2019s the worst pasta dish I have ever seen.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/IMG_7675-0.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.pickydiners.com\/www\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/IMG_7675-0.jpg\" alt=\"five cheese tortellini with chicken\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">five cheese tortellini with chicken<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>My Kansas City Back Ribs ($21.50) was okay.
