I had eaten at the Roasteed Pear a couple of times over the years and always had a good, not necessarily great, meal.
I happened to be in the Burnsville area with a friend so rather than go to a “chain” restaurant for dinner I suggested “The Pear”
It was a Saturday night, but not very crowded at all. Above and beyond the mediocrity of the food it took FOREVER for our food (“dinner ready” items like Prime Rib and Rotissiere Chicken to arrive. What gives??)
While waiting for ages for our entrees, we were served a good house salad and a completely awful, inedible “appetizer-of-the-day” A Jalapeno stuffed with cream cheese and shrimp wrapped in bacon. The Jalapeno was raw…hard as a rock, shrimp was mushy, bacon tasted OLD….just inedible. The waitress took it off out tab.
The entrees? My Prime Rib was not very tasty, grilled asparagus was too oily, and the garlic mashed topped with Parmesan was very “Glue-like”. My friend had the Rotissiere Chicken which he offered a taste to me. Bland, tasteless, no seasoning or flavor to enhance the chicken at all. Was very very disappointing.
To add insult to injury, I just checked my check card balance online and the FULL amount of the dinner was charged TWICE. BUYER BEWARE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I won’t be returning to “The Roasted Pear”

Get out the door and stop going to Fridays will you! Nice menu, great service and I have yet to have a dish I am disapointed in. If you are only going to use this service for complaining then go away. The Blue cheese steak tips were great, and the pizze is refreshing. This is another place that we need to support as it NOT a chain, it is local people making great food for ALL.
