    Pizza Slice and Side Special
    Amelia M.

    We had their slice and side combo, it was amazing! The potato was so good and fresh, the kids really loved it, the spaghetti was not plain! It was so good, warm and fresh! The pizza slice was big so the kids can share each and it was filling for lunch! The place was clean and quite spacious among tables! They played good songs too with friendly staffs that served with smile, fast and easy purchase!

    First time here and I loved it! The pizza was fresh and so good, and the breadstick was full of flavor. Everything hit exactly what I was craving. Jimmy helped me and he had such great customer service. He was really friendly and made the whole experience feel welcoming and easy. Definitely coming back again!

    I'm surprised I haven't written a review here yet! My husband and I are becoming quite the regulars…read morehere so this is definitely past due! This is one of our go-to date spot that our friends introduced to us to. From my understanding this is Italian owned business with not only great quality food but also a wonderful assortment of rich olive oil, balsamic vinegar, jam, wine, packaged noodles you can buy straight from Italy. The service is always friendly but they can get very busy. Highly recommend a reservation. They've been so busy before they wouldn't even do take out orders. Ambiance is quaint. I love the beautiful Italian chandeliers they have. I've had a hard time with the chairs if I have a thick coat or a clutch hand back hard to put on the seat My husband orders the carbonara everytime which is our favorite item on the menu. Very authentic to us. I've tried many different pastas and just tried the lasagna last night which is not super heavy if your hesitant on feeling too full, was a great portion amount and wasn't super greasy either. Other items I've tried are the but my favorites are the fettuccine Alfredo (not on the menu), the short rib ravioli - super tasty!, and this mozerella crusted Pattie's in balsamic and creamy tomato sauce (seasonal or not on the menu sometime) that we love! I wanted to love the seafood risotto but I've had better. I used to order paccheri alla boscaiola which a popular item but I have to be in the mood for all the red onions which can be overpowering if there's a lot. We have tried some Of the apps which are always super fresh but we tend to order insalata calabrese which has a bit of everything Italian salad and great for sharing. The free bread is a plus too. Highly recommend coming for date night, family night, or even a small special occasion. Thanks for the great food and service!

    I came to eat at pasta party a few days ago after telling myself to visit for a long time now. I…read morestill remember the old deli that was there prior to this restaurant and I've seen numerous social media ads and posts about the place so I wanted to check it out. I think I was a little hesitant because in my head I was thinking how good could possibly really be? In my head spaghetti/pasta is something I can make it home and almost thought it a waste of money to go out of my way to go out specifically to eat this dish. I ordered the Arrabiata pasta with the sausage. I'll admit I was a little thrown off by added cost of each tolling and also added cost of the Arrabiata sauce and I also did wait until a fair amount before the food was ready for takeout. But the pasta really blew me away. I'm still thinking about how good it tasted. I would definitely come back and I actually wanna bring my dad who loves spicy pasta like this. It was really that good. I can't think of another place that has this level of pasta let alone this price. The only negative I would say in regards to one of the workers. The cashier was manned by wonderful woman who did every and all tasks from taking the orders to putting food items in the oven to answering the phone I'm probably much more than that. I don't know. In contrast there was an Asian man with a black shirt who was also working. He looked lost and completely helpless. There was a moment where this woman was so busy and there was a ringing that I assume was from either a phone call or a delivery order. This man did not offer to help more nor did he help from what I saw. He was utterly helpless and unhelpful. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt with the encouragement "Hey help your team out!" The woman on the other hand was doing so many things simultaneously and yet was really kind at the same time. Anyways, I'm giving my review of a five star because I wanna see this place succeed and I'll definitely come back .

    We saw online that they have daily lunch specials but it's not advertised in the restaurant. The…read morestaff had to dig around for a while to find the lunch menu. It's basically $2-$3 off select dishes. We ended up ordering the chicken parm and the 12in short rib sandwich. Total was about $47 for both. Pretty pricey. The chicken parm barely had any pasta. We thought there'll be more pasta under the chicken, but sadly no. Short rib sandwich was dry and lacked flavor. We dipped it in the chicken parm sauce which made it better.

All windows have bushes so it gives you that privacy, including the patio. You order and pay first, then grab a table. There are bus staff which you can ask for utensils, boxes, etc. but you can also walk up and grab them yourselves. Olive oil has mixed herbs which is nice touch and focaccia bread is soft and chewy. Calamari is good but not crunchy, and provided with ranch and marinara sauce. Eggplant Parmigiana is great portion and had two meals with it.

Possible negative to sitting outside, we didn't get the normal bread and oil until we were served our food because no one saw us outside, but that was okay.

I had a Caesar salad on the side. My options were salad, fries, or chips. My husband is kind of picky so he got the safe bet of chicken Alfredo with broccoli. He cleaned his plate.
