Bagheri Italian Restaurant

6/28/2022 🥺 We were enthusiastic: First time we were there after reading the good reviews! I called to make a reservation and a terrible opera “singer” yelling a note answered 🎵 Not space to leave a message 🙁 We decided to drive there. Bad idea. The neon sign said OPEN, the door hanged sign said CLOSE… The door was unlocked. We walked inside: 3 separated tables occupied with 8 customers total having dinner. The place was cute, like an open kitchen and the dining room in a comfy house. It smelled good. Suddenly a cook came to say: “No, no, no. I cannot serve anyone else. I have ALL this people to attend.” He got back to the kitchen And that’s all, no “hello” no “good-bye”, no apology, no “please, try again”, nothing… nada 😔 At least I hope the opera singer stops answering the phone… maybe we could get a reservation for 2 soon and give them a chance 😉

Having passed their door on numerous occasions without knowing when they're open as hours aren't posted, we went online to see that they're a dinner only place that starts at 5:30 pm. Reviews seemed to indicate that food and service were exceptional so we gave them a try. I must say that though dishes seemed fresh and flavorful, and bread on the side adequate, prices were 2-3X what competitors charge for comparable plates with larger portions and actually better flavors. Service was hit and miss. Pretty much explains why the crowd was small during our visit and why we will go a little further toward the center of Denton for Fera's next time.

Online says they are open at 5:30pm…but there is no one here and it’s 6:00pm. Got here at 5:25pm to wait for them to open but they never did…At least put a sign on the the door to let customers know. Walked over to the next door nail salon to see if they were going to open soon and was told some times the owner just decides not to open?? Extremely unprofessional.
