Yes, the complimentary rolls or bread were still not offered during our Feb. '08 lunch but were finally back in May. I think it was a year and a half or two ago when Mama's stopped serving it complimentary. It had evolved past simple bread or rolls with olive oil or butter to the dips being included gratis.
I would sure hope your server wasn't trying to upserve you. We actually started to order the bread and were advised complimentary rolls were back. And I should have said that before...it was rolls just like BD's this May.
Maybe the trick is to ask for bread or rolls.
