Very reasonable prices, tasty pizza and pasta (we got the pesto pasta, cacio e pepe, and Estiva pizza), and we were treated to a complimentary sample of the vanilla coffee bean gelato, which was made in-house too. They were very kind, checked on us throughout the meal, asked how we liked the food, and were genuinely sweet. I honestly found the timing of the meal very reasonable as well--not too long at all. We had plenty of time to catch up, and they didn't mind that we sat there chatting together for a while. The Estiva pizza was one of the best bites of pizza I've had in a long time, and I was honestly so happy there was a slice to take home because I enjoyed it that much. Kind couple serving delicious home-style Italian food that, for me, was better than anything I've had at an elevated Italian spot in this city thus far. They're primarily a takeaway operation and less than half a mile from the beach, so the possibilities for a beachside picnic are endless. Big thank you to them for bringing this experience to the community. I hope to return with more friends and family soon.

I had the opportunity to visit this awesome business while doing some work in the city. I…read morespecifically went for the Pesto Pasta, however they were sold out. I ended up getting Ricotta Ravioli with Pesto sauce. AMAZING!!! AMAZING!!! AMAZING!!! The flavors were everything my taste buds needed. Ohhhhh and the customer service....Priceless!!!! I cannot remember the lady's name that assisted me, but she was such a jewel. The man working in there and his energy....EVERYTHING!!!! This duo is much needed. They were so kind, and their genuineness for their customers to feel welcomed was top tier. I will definitely be back.

The parking was a bit of…read morea nightmare, so if you manage to find it, this place is a must-try so you don't the opportunity. Luckily our group had about 6-8 people so we were able to try quite a bit of the food. Glapponese - Ground pork, garlic, bacon, soy sauce for pasta. Very strong umami in this. It's for when you'd like a simple pasta with meat and nothing too overpowering. Tarako - Cod roe and nori. This is another simple pasta when you'd like something with a strong salty flavor but want to mostly enjoy the texture of the pasta, which was soft and chewy btw. If you want a familiar Japanese flavor, this is the one to order Carbonara - A very familiar pasta in case you want to stay on the safe side. They still make it very delicious and creamy if you're in a simple mood for an Italian style pasta Keema Curry - This is where you start going for a more complex taste for your pasta. If you can't decide if you want an Italian or Japanese pasta, combine the tastes with pasta in curry Service I feel can be a bit more attentive. When they sat 6 of us down first, there were only 5 settings, so it seemed pretty natural to bring us a sixth set of utensils. But when we realized they missed it, we ended asked them. Not a big deal. But when our remaining two friends came, they sat them with us and brought out only 1 set of utensils, so we had to ask for it again. Just a small detail that had me a bit confused during the experience, but the food itself was great and we'd love to come back when they reopen

We waited over an hour for the pesto pasta and kept having to remind them for it. It takes long for the food to come out (30-60 min) even though there were only 2 other tables in the restaurant. For the price, it's definitely worth it to come here but I wouldn't come back again because of the service and how long it took for the food to come out.

The portion was generous, the ingredients tasted incredibly fresh, and every bite was full of flavor. You can tell that a lot of care goes into the food preparation.

He made me feel valued as a customer and added a personal touch that is becoming increasingly rare these days. If you're visiting the Original Farmers Market, Farmer's Corner is a must-visit.

And a personal breakthrough: I used to schlep all the way to Larchmont Cheese & Wine or Bay Cities before beach days for a proper sandwich. Not anymore. I have sandwich geniuses living right down the street. The bread? Exceptional. The cheeses? Dangerous. The meats? I may never recover. And then there's the lemon Italian ice. My daughter and I have been here three times in the last week, shamelessly returning like two neighborhood raccoons with excellent taste. It is the perfect antidote to a scorching Altadena afternoon. This place is an absolute gem. Go for the pasta, stay for the sandwich, leave with three things you didn't know you needed and a strong desire to become Italian.

My wife was in the mood for sandwiches last week, so I took to Yelp and found Ferrazzani's Pasta &…read moreMarket deep in Pasadena. I've been married to an Italian woman for years and have eaten sandwiches from Little Italy's all over the states to many in Italy as well, so I was definitely interested to order some sandwiches and giving this place a go. This small shop doesn't have much seating, but it does have a counter to sit at as well as a small section of pasta, sauces, drinks, and various other things for you to purchase when you walk in. The menu here isn't massie, but you don't really need it to be at an Italian sandwich shop so who cares? I ended up ordering the Chicken Confit which description is "Our newest sandwich! Dark meat chicken sourced from Cream Co. Meats, confited in olive oil, then tossed it with an orange-Calabrian chili agrodolce spiked with fennel seed and garlic that's bright, deeply savory, a touch spicy, and a little addictive. It all comes together with spicy arugula and tangy pecorino Toscano on a Bub & Grandma's baguette.". The sandwich was about $15 and I gotta say, it's not very big and it didn't really do the job of filling me up and neither did my wife's. The flavour wasn't bad at all, it was solid enough and I don't have any complaints other then It was simply kind of small for the price. Overall, Ferrazzani's Pasta & Market is fine. I didn't leave blown away by anything, and in fact I was left still kind of wanting to eat. The sandwich was fine, but I don't think the amount of food matches the price and I can't really see myself driving back to Pasadena to give this place another go, but hey, this may be the perfect shop for somebody.

First time at this restaurant. The staff was really…read morewelcoming and attentive which really makes a difference when stopping to enjoy good company and food in downtown. We went fairly early in the afternoon , to enjoy Lunch while visiting my aunt. They brought out fresh bread and it was really good, the balsamic vinegar had an amazing flavor . Forgot to snap photos of the appetizers , it's was Brushetta and The bone marrow, both were excellent Every dish came out and was sooo good , a nice portion and every dish was very well balanced and exceeded our expectations. The shrimp tasted very fresh and was perfectly plump and not overcooked. The Ragu with wild board was excellent and ragu was rich and hearty. Lasagna was very rich and decadent and we enjoyed every bite. Gnocchi con carne was delicious as well For dessert we had affogato , espresso was very rich and velvety , with the perfect sweetness. Flourless chocolate cake was amazing . We look forward coming back, the patio was really cute and offered shade and made us feel like we were transported to much calmer atmosphere (love downtown la though ) Above all else , every single staff member we encountered made the experience amazing , we will definitely be back.

From the friendly greeter/hostess to the Italian sommelier who checked in on us and joked with us often, they really made us feel we've been customers for a long time. This is only our second time here. Our friends' last time of eating her was over 10 years ago. This is simply because we all live far from this resto. Our friends lived in the valley and we live in OC. Food - very authentic Italian food.

The pasta is so fresh and so delicious. They weren't lying about fresh pasta made in house. With a few bites in, I felt like I back in Italy trying authentic pasta again. I had the pesto and it was phenomenal. Husband had the arrabbiata pasta. He enjoyed it. I'm still thinking about the pasta even though I was here days ago. Small restaurant with just a few tables available so I recommend going by yourself or with a friend. I think it would be difficult to go with a larger party. Nonetheless I highly recommend Pasta Sisters Food was amazing and the staff were friendly. I will definitely be back if I'm in the neighborhood. I saw they have another location so I may try that location since it's a tad closer to me.
