This dish was a bit too oily for my taste. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

The linguine was overcooked and the vegetables were mushy. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I think it could have used more seasoning. Otherwise, it was a good recipe.
