Some items are a tad bit pricier, but I'll pay a few dollars more because this store is so clean !

I opted for the cavatappi and marinara sauce. It came with 2 meatballs and a generous slice of bread. This was probably the best meal I've had in a long time. Seriously, it was SO good. The pasta was perfectly cooked, the sauce was just acidic & sweet enough, the meatballs were incredible and the bread was out of this world. The best part? It was only $13.99! I took it to go and saved it for lunch the next day so my pic is not as pretty as it was freshly served. Would totally recommend trying this spot out!

Soul Pasta restaurant makes Italian pastas, raviolis, sauces, baked goods, and other foods. Their…read morepastas include bigoli and mafalde. Their ravioli are available in beef, chicken, spinach-ricotta, and potato-cheese. Their sauces include marinara, boscaiola, bolognese, arrabbiata, and pesto. Examples of their baked goods are cinnamon rolls, brownies, and macarons. Their other foods include arancini, gnocchi, and sandwiches. Currently, customers may order these foods either in person or online (e.g., Market Wagon, Toast, DoorDash, Slice, and Uber Eats). Catering is available. Through Market Wagon's website, I have placed a few orders for Soul Pasta's foods. Here are my opinions about the individual foods: Pastas: The bigoli noodles were very thick, and the mafalde noodles were very long ribbons. These two pastas were very fresh, consisted of several serving sizes, and were a much higher quality than what you can purchase from a grocery store. Sauces: The four sauces--marinara, boscaiola (mushroom), bolognese (ground meat), and arrabiata (moderately spicy)--tasted delicious. Desserts: I ordered the cinnamon rolls twice. The first time, they had no icing on top, but they did have icing the second time. They were little (a couple bites in size) and contained the right amount of cinnamon. The chocolate brownies were also little, and they were moist and very chocolate-y. The macarons arrived smashed, but I enjoyed the flavors of their fillings.

I started off with French onion soup, which was delicious. The soup had a great flavor and paired well with their homemade bread.

I did enjoy the other two options, but they were pretty standard italian.

It is a very cozy Italian restaurant that's serving homemade Italian food like your Nonna would make for you. We showed up on a Tuesday night and it was packed. It was around six or 6:30 in the evening and when we first got there, we were told it would be about a 20 minute wait before a two top was available. But the host came back and asked if we didn't mind sitting by the kitchen they could see us right away. We chose to sit by the kitchen, which honestly was probably the best option because it was actually a little bit quieter because there was a very large party that was celebrating a birthday and they had live music going on so it was hard to hear when you were in the main dining space but back by the kitchen it's a little bit quieter and we could actually hear ourselves talk. My husband got the penne with meatballs and the penny was nicely cooked with a beautiful tomato Bass sauce and the meatballs or some of the best Italian meatball he's ever had. His only complaint was that there were only two in the order and he wished there would've been three. I got the spinach and ricotta, stuffed ravioli, and by far one of the best raviolis I've ever had. The ravioli are large so there's only about five in a dish but they're packed fully and the flavoring and seasoning is absolutely spectacular. It's got a beautiful sauce like accompanies it and the chew you can definitely tell it is handmade pasta/ravioli. Our server, Emma was absolutely spectacular and was so kind. We truly enjoyed our experience here and would highly recommend anybody to check it out if you're in the area. But we also do recommend make your reservations ahead of time. This place gets packed quickly.

Very, very good Italian spot near Walnut Street, very close by all the top shops. The ambiance is…read morevery nice, both inside and outside. Pretty tight space though. The waitresses are friendly and have great recommendations. I got to try their linguine rustica (essentially the clam pasta dish), a cappuccino, some cherry soda, and soup of the day, as well as complimentary bread. They got that bread out very quickly! Very soft, and served with quite high quality olive oil. The bottle has both olive oil and balsamic! The soup of the day was quite good as well. It was some sort of beef broth, I think may a beef and bean soup. Chickpeas in there as well. Next time, I might try the salad. The salad they have as a side is so good, an amazing portion and seems so fresh and tasty. The mains were excellent. Very good pasta with clam sauce. Lots of clam meat and a flavorful oil based sauce. My friend had some red penne with chicken and enjoyed that as well. Great portions, pretty fair prices. Finally, great drinks as well. Very memorable cherry cola that I believe the company is owned by the owner's son. Real cane sugar, very good. The cappuccino was great as well. Definitely come here!

We had reservations for 5pm on Friday, but decided to sit in the bar area to experience the cool red lighting. We ordered a few different items: Oysters: these were great, easily some of the best oysters I've ever had in Pittsburgh. Not a single piece of shell found in any oyster. Super fresh. Great stuff. Scallop Crudo: probably my least favorite dish of the night, ate the whole thing but wouldn't be something I'd get again. Scallops were almost slightly (metallic?) in flavor. Steak tar tar: delish. Very fresh, surprisingly light in flavor. Paired great with the chips. Grilled cabbage Caesar: honestly my favorite dish of the evening. Flavors were perfect, texture was soft but crunchy. I was tempted to order more but had to restrain myself. Half roasted chicken with rhubarb: totally lived up to the hype. Chicken was perfectly cooked, loads of flavor. The creamy farmers cheese on the bottom paired great with the sweet/tartness of the rhubarb. Easily the best chicken dish I've ever had. Rye shortbread: this was our dessert. Greatly enjoyed this. Flavors mingled perfectly. Overall, great experience. Service is top notch. Drinks were good and we were even given free champagne since we were celebrating. Can't wait to come back again. (Apologies for the bad pictures, the red lighting in not camera friendly)

The salad was super refreshing and tasty. It had what seemed like crispy pizza dough bites instead of standard croutons, which was a simple but great touch. Unfortunately, the pizza was a letdown. It was pretty floppy and soggy (maybe from the mushrooms?), and the flavor overall lacked depth. It was a bit sour which I kind of like in a pizza, but not much substance to it. Undercarriage was okay in the non soggy parts. Service was friendly, and the food came out reasonably fast, though the overall vibe felt a bit rushed given how quickly they turn tables. The space itself is clean and well-kept. Great for a quick salad, but I've had better pizza.
