Pizza Hut Italian Bistro

In the last few weeks, I have seen television ads for this new Italian Bistro by Pizza Hut -- a sit-down Italian restaurant with new items, plus traditional Pizza Hut pizzas. I drove past one on my way to my hotel in McAllen, Texas, last night, so I decided to give it a try.
What a mistake.

Everything there tasted like Pizza Hut pizza. The Caesar salad, the bread, the dipping sauce, even the sausage and peppers all tasted of the same seasonings. I was hoping for a diverse menu, and they offered several more selections than I expected. However, the apparently did not add any new ingredients to the kitchen.

Also, the amount of sausage in the sausage and peppers was embarrassingly small. I pointed this out to the manager, and let him know that I think most patrons would be disappointed when seeing how little sausage there was.

All in all, it was an extremely disappointing experience. Don't waste your time.
