Dirty menus, water taste bad, on to the soup. Strange combo artichoke and dill. But the best thing in my mouth. Served with a tea spoon not a soup spoon. Ordered the blackened red fish pasta Alfredo. Lacking flavor Alfredo was thin. Did the chef forget to order garlic. Hubby had chicken Parmigiano. Breading was twice as thick as that pounded to death thin bird. Lacking spices. This was our 2nd try since opening and still not impressed. read more

Foods awful I saw server spit in food and when I brought it up the manger chewed me out and asked like she owned the place never taking my family here again read more

Great menu full of delicious options. Cornbread Cajun dish was alright. House combination dish had tons of food included in it. Large dessert menu but we were to full to try anything. read more

Loved my salmon dish here. Nicely done. Nice atmosphere with good service. Would highly recommend this place.

Excellent service, prompt and courteous. Exceptional food, quality and taste. Atmosphere was great. The restaurant was quiet and clean.

We have eaten here one time and enjoyed it very much. The food was really good. The atmosphere was warm and inviting. The staff was friendly and helpful. We look forward to returning again. read more

Very good! Excellent food. Crowded, but staff got us in quickly. Tables, seating close together, but worth it. From entrees to dessert-delish! read more

This is one of the most unfriendly restaurants I ever walked into. They were very clear thT waiting on us was a waste of their time. Save yourself the trouble and walk a few steps further to the Vault. They were amazing! read more

So good. We eat here several times a week for lunch. Great lunch specials and the sandwiches are so good.

Pasta Grill has nailed it! The portions, the flavor from the entrees to the desserts are amazing! The marinara is the best I've ever had! The Alfredo sauce is my absolute favorite! Everyone else in my home go crazy over the lasagna! They have mastered the art of garlic bread and fried ravioli! Everything is just ridiculously amazing! I'm definitely a big fan! read more

Amazing! First trip (Christmas gift) ... will definitely return. Make a reservation.. if you get there early go to the bookstore next door. Had the Gnocchi (excellent) and Tiramisu (really good!) for desert. read more

Great food, nice atmosphere and friendly service! The Parmesan crusted potatoes are my favorite... but of course they have several delicious pasta dishes! read more

Food was absolutely amazing, service was great, music and atmosphere was great, I can see myself coming here again in the future. I got their prime rib with their parmesan potatoes and broccoli as well as their scallop pasta and it was all amazing, their raspberry tea is very good as well and their cannolis are huge for the price they are and are amazing as well read more

Worst anniversary\valentines meal in 16 years. My food came out cold and had to watch my wife eat hers alone! Then while she was eating her pizza she found a lemon seed. We didn't have any lemons. They brought us a dessert for the errors! I will not be back! Pay that much money on a special night for it to be mediocre is just uneceptable! read more

Everyone loved their food here. This was the second time that we have been to a Pasta Grill. The first time was in Russellville and it was equally as great of an experience. read more

I usually eat here 1-2 times a week. I decided to take my boyfriend here for his birthday lunch. We were seated without bread and found something floating in our water. I had to ask a different waitress for new water and she didn't say a word to me. My boyfriend was almost completely done eating and found a hair in his food. We hadn't been checked on and I had to go back to the kiosk to get help. There were only three tables in the entire restaurant and the workers were chitchatting. They replaced his meal. The hostess was only one who gave good service. She apologized and offered a free desert and his meal for free. Things happen so I understood. We were given our dessert and found ANOTHER hair. We usually overlook the bad service because of the great food, but this is ridiculous. We were disgusted. I wish a zero star rating was available. read more

I absolutely adore the atmosphere of this place. Their Alfredo sauce is the best around. Their classic dishes are unique and I've not found a bad one yet. read more

Food was really good and grubhub's customer service were really reliable and nice. I was able to get my delivery charge refunded because I decided to pick up my food instead. Definitely recommend eating here! read more

A really nice and surprisingly good find in Van Buren. One of many new establishments on Main Street. Very nice decor and some great old tunes playing in the background. They have a limited drink menu with more expansive wine and beer offerings. As the description indicates they have extensive pasta and pasta combinations along with steak and some seafood. They have numerous dishes with crawfish as the main ingredient. The later were hard to pass up (a repeat visit perhaps). The meal started with some nice toasted bread and marinara dipping sauce (refillable and we did). We had the Brie appetizer with the cranberry/raspberry sauce. Although it seem a bit pricey, it was good. We had difficulty choosing among the pasta offerings....so, we opted for the combination. There were ravioli, manicotti, spaghetti, a meatball and an Italian sausage. I failed to take a picture, but I assure you it was plenty for us to share. The pasta, if not home-made, tasted as such. The spaghetti was cooked to perfection - al dente. The marinara sauce is quite nice and was generously applied to the pastas. We closed with the dessert cannoli (see the picture). Again, big enough to share. All in all, a relaxing dinner with wine. By the way, our server Caroline was the best. read more

See all

Great food. Nice atmosphere. Great service!!! The waitress brought us the wrong entree and left it for us while she went to get the correct one. We liked the mistake better!! read more

Absolutely love this place. It is a great addition to Van Buren I had the prime rib it was incredible my wife had a seafood pasta that was very good. The fried Brie was very good absolutely not what I was expecting. My only real complaint is that my food came too fast. Suggestion allow servers to put food in at different times it was very obvious the server put the appetizer the salad and the entree in all at the same time my salad came out about 1 minute after the appetizer even though I had my server put the appetizer in ahead of time and the entree came out about 2 minutes after the salad. I was having a very rare meal alone with my wife and wanted to enjoy to enjoy the experience rather than stack food up I felt a bit rushed. But we didn't rush and enjoyed the meal and had a good experience.food was spectacular. read more

Ate here last evening. The meal was wonderful. It is a full scale Italian Restaurant not a small grill. Service was great. Located downtown Van Buren AR. read more

Visit Pasta Grill about 2 weeks ago, first chance to leave a review. We were seated in back half of the restaurant, a bit noise, but good seats. The fist thing I noticed Bruschetta was NOT on the menu, a disappointing start. The bread was warm, but looked like WalMart style Italian bread. I ordered the Blacken Chicken Alfredo Fettuccine and my wife ordered the Lasagna and Alfredo Fettuccini. My Blacken Chicken was NOT very spicy, kinda bland. My wife always orders the Lasagna, so she can compare hers to others restaurants. The Lasagna finished last in comparison test, the Alfredo was ok. Overall the food was better that other local Italian restaurants. We will give the Pasta Grill another try. read more

Was hoping for a pleasant experience when I was met with un cooked pasta and the blandest tasting Alfredo I have tasted and I'm a pasta connoisseur. Greasy dirty menus were handed to us when we were sat. For the name and aesthetic, you'd think they'd have rich tasting pasta, attentive customer service but I was wrong. Never got my cup refilled either. Management is also unprofessional when dealing with guest. They should really step it up read more

Beautiful place in Downtown Van Buren. Food is great, service is great, atmosphere is great. Can't go wrong. Glad to have Pasta Grill in Van Buren. read more

Super spot!! It was amazing how fabulous the food was in this sleepy little town. I would highly recommend to anyone.

Great food and atmosphere!! perfect Place to go for a special occasion, or a perfect girls lunch!

Charming little restaurant with excellent food! Cheese bread is to die for. Loved my pasta dish. Marinara sauce was incredible. Wait staff very friendly and welcoming. If I'm ever in Ft. Smith again will definitely eat here!! read more

Food was very good. Prompt service (Christopher was great) prices were great value. Shrimp and grits were great. Southern pasta was also good but I think the shrimp and grits are a bit better. The huge cannoli for dessert was perfect end of the meal. Great job. read more

Absolutely delicious! The atmosphere is the best in Van Buren and I have been known to eat there twice in one day. :) Make sure you try the Shrimp New Orleans and the Cheesy Dill Soup. read more

Without a question this is the best food in the Van Buren area. I have eaten there once or twice a week since they've opened and I've never had a bad meal. They not only have Italian dishes, they also have steaks and other American food. You can go lite with soup and salad or you can really dig in with pasta and one of their amazing desserts. read more

Our favorite Italian grill around. Love the Pasta Margarita or the prime rib sandwich with potato's. The bread is so yummy we eat nearly 4 loaves everything we go. read more

Loved the atmosphere, the service and the food!!! Started with fried Brie; wow!!! Had wonderful pasta dishes, and ended the meal with their version of cannoli! Best meal I have had in awhile!!! read more

Oh my! Visited Pasta Grill while on business travel. Took the server's (Caleb who was awesome) recommendation and ordered the red snapper. One of the best dishes I have ever eaten - and I'm no young chicken! I would not recommend to add the 3.50 side salad or order the tiramisu - but the snapper earned every bit of 5 stars!! read more

First visit to Pasta Grill on a Thursday night. Two couples. I had salmon gnocchi and it was wonderful. Food temperature hot and stayed hot which I like. Food itself super. Wait staff lady also very fine. Others in our group also really liked the food. Entrees were served quickly, no long wait. Very attractive restaurant. Only drawback was sitting on hard , uncomfortable bench seating. Can't wait to try another dish from an intriguing menu. read more
