Pizza Vesuvio

Loved the ambience. Beautiful restaurant inside but let down by shocking service. The young male waiter seemed very pleasant at first but when my wife found a long hair in her pizza (only the 3rd slice in) the waiter proceeded to make a joke of it by doing a playful "magic trick" and threw the hair one side and said "what hair, there's no hair". All 6 guests at the table laughed at what we thought was a joke but when the waiter walked away and proceeded servicing other customers all were shocked to find that he was serious and weren't planning on rectifying anything. Needles to say the rest of the pizza went down with difficulty. When we were done and received our bill everyone felt that perhaps he wasn't deserving a 10% tip due to the lack of care he showed earlier the evening and only tipped roughly 5-6%. As we walked away he said "You f*&#ers will never be welcome in my restaurant again" and loudly complained to my friends. I guess he doesn't have to worry as I, nor my friends or anyone I know will ever set foot in there again.
