Openings: Adrienne's Pizzabar in Battery Park City

The "Old Fashioned" pizza (aka: granny pie) was good and the outside dinning on the old stone street made for a very relaxing and enjoyable atmosphere. However, the waitstaff was more concerned with their cell phones and whoever they were texting. Clearly all of us customers were an inconvenience.

Also, be warned, when it comes to soft drinks they rip you off. It was $3 for a 10 oz (that's what I said...10oz...less than is in a can) soda served in a little bottle that airlines don't even use anymore. And needless to say, there are no free refills.

I guess I should also note that I'm not a big fan of parmesan cheese, so I asked to have my pie without it. That simple request proved to be a troubling one for the kitchen. Apparently, they usually have all their pies prepped in advance. So the waiter returned to the table to let me know that the chef would do it "THIS TIME" only because it was slow. In the future I should not expect to be so lucky.

I'd recommend going there once to say you went there (if that), then find a different restaurant where the waitstaff is friendlier and attentive, where you actually get your money's worth in a soft drink, and where the kitchen can handle simple requests.
