Osteria Pane e Salute from Woodstock Menu

"I'm expressing these thoughts with an understanding of why some of my concerns may not be widely shared. Firstly, the restaurant is neatly tucked in the heart of Woodstock, Vermont, drawing my family and me due to the promise of authentic Spanish cuisine. Initially, the atmosphere was less than ideal, with cramped seating hindering our ability to enjoy a quiet family dinner. We anticipated ambient chatter but found ourselves struggling to hear amidst everyone else's conversations, despite the place being somewhat empty. This highlights the compact size of the restaurant, likely influenced by the older buildings in downtown Woodstock and the premium rent associated with the area. Secondly, my order of a market-priced steak, my wife's Jerk chicken, and my son's chicken nuggets left us disappointed. The items were overpriced, and the food lacked seasoning. Authentic Spanish cuisine typically boasts seasoned and flavorful dishes, but we found ourselves questioning whether the food had been seasoned at all. Although my son enjoyed his $10+ chicken kids meal, receiving bland food at these prices felt unacceptable. We recognize the location's influence on pricing but believe that blandness shouldn't be the compromise, perhaps catering to a diverse community less accustomed to bold seasonings. Lastly, the customer service was satisfactory—courteous with occasional lapses in attention, never crossing into rudeness. Overall, not a terrible place, but for those seeking truly authentic Spanish food or more reasonably priced options with better quality control, I recommend exploring other establishments."

"Almost 10 minutes too late. No request. Celebrate a birthday, but sit in the middle of the room. Very slow beverage service to start experience, chicken was barely edible and definitely NOT to top standards-it looked like a pale rubber chicken. My daughter and I ordered it... We were very disappointed, but ate it because of course we were hungry. Service of Nancy was excellent! The other three people at my party were satisfied with meals."
