Bearno's Little Sicily Pizza

Before you get harsh with me, I've given this place 4 chances; 3 lunch buffets and one regular dining experience.  I think I've given it a fair shake.

Here's why it kinda sucks.  For me, anyway.

First, the pizza is acceptable, but nothing special.  Bearno's claims to bake "Louisville Style Pizza."  I have a difficult time figuring out what makes it different from regular pizza.  I know what New York-style pizza is.  I know what Chicago-style pizza is.  I even know what California-style pizza is.  I find no reason to give Louisville its own pizza style and Bearno's couldn't really provide an answer.  You do get a pretty broad selection of toppings and options on the lunch buffet as well as a couple of pastas, bread sticks and salads.  But, and I say this again, the pizza isn't any better than most take-out places.  It is, however, more expensive.

Secondly, the service is slow.  During my standard dining experience, our table was one of only 3 occupied in the whole place and our cups still ran dry.  Service was glacial.

Finally, I didn't really feel comfortable.  I don't wear camoflage, college-licensed unitards or sweatpants to dinner and this put me out of place among the majority of the other patrons who seemed to be getting better service.  

There is a nice deck to one side of the building that could provide for a pleasant dining experience during the warmer months.  I do have concern if that might mean getting your own beverages, though.
