Pasta Party - Cute italian decor - Pizza Near Me - Orange, California

YUM! LOCATION/PARKING - they have plenty spots. Located at the corner of a busy intersection, you may miss it if you are going fast. But no problem otherwise. I could see parking being limited if at a busy weekend dinner time. FOOD - I was realllyyyy craving short rib pasta and this place definitely did not disappoint! So delicious and so good. I would say that the garlic bread that was given with it wasn't that great. If was better quality, it would make it soo much better. But for the pasta, no complaints! SERVICE - The guys working were very friendly, helpful, and great. Because the kitchen is at the front, you can see them working on your order. They worked well together and you can tell they like their jobs. Wait wasn't too quick, which is totally okay knowing I was waiting for something fresh. AMBIANCE - I came in at off hours, so they had plenty dine-in seating and tables. I love the decor and the ambiance of it all. Will be coming again when I want a good pasta-fix! Thank you for the experience read more

Huge portions. Great casual food spot for lunch or dinner. It's a little hidden gem. Cashier was friendly. Menu consists specialty's and then you can also create a customized pasta. read more

Got the food to go. The Pizza is standard, nothing that goes above and beyond. Wish it had more flavor. The sauce was bland. The Beef Braised Pasta was also lacking flavor. It mainly tastes of grease from the beef and the noodles don't taste like fresh pasta. It was inedible, for me. read more

Had a lunch date with my daughter and so glad we did! This restaurant was fairly small and looks like mostly a lunch place. The food was good and service was great! My daughter ordered the gnocchi which she loved ! I ordered the lunch special with 1/2 eggplant sandwich (delicious and generously portioned) and Caesar salad- this was excellent! My daughter and I devoured the Caesar salad and both agreed this was on the same level as some expensive steakhouse! Would come back again with the whole family! read more

This might be our new favorite Italian spot! We've driven past it countless times but finally decided to give it a try last night. The restaurant is located next to a liquor store and shares a parking lot. The ordering process is simple--you order at the counter, then sit down, and they bring the food right to you. The menu includes a make-your-own pasta option where you choose your pasta, sauce, and protein, as well as signature pastas, sandwiches, pizzas, and salads. Here's what we tried: - Caesar Salad: The perfect size for two. We loved the anchovy vinegar dressing. - Make Your Own Pasta (Penne with Arrabbiata Sauce): The sauce had a nice kick, but it was a bit too salty for my taste. - Beef Braised Pasta: This one was the highlight! Tender braised short rib, mushrooms, and Parmigiano over fresh pasta--it was absolutely delicious and something we'd definitely order again. The pasta was fresh and perfectly cooked to al dente, coming out piping hot, just the way we love it. It reminded us of the authentic pasta we had in Italy. read more

Is this restaurant really a pasta party? I first tried to answer this question in my review of about five years ago. Then, I returned repeatedly to verify that five star review was deserved. Then, I kept returning, vigilant in my service to that five-star review. I kept devouring their eggplant parm and their short rib parpadelle pasta and endless servings of spagetti because I am dedicated to the cause! lol. No, seriously, this place is amazing. It's our local Italian joint and my family absolutely loves it. I'm typing this at about 8am and I'm Johnsing for that parpadelle pasta right now, it's that good. Go have yourself a pasta party with Pasta Party! read more

Discovered another new pizza pasta restaurant in Orange. My wife and I love pizzas. We try to discover a new place everytime and today finally we got here. First, we ordered deluxe pizza 16 inch XL $25.99 fettuccine $15.99 bolonaise $3 w extra shrimps for $6. They charged extra credit card 3% on the bill. For the drinks, we got 4 modelo beers. They served hot toasted baguettes w butter. And we got the fettuccine and pizza. I liked the fettuccine but my wife said little sour for her. The pasta was not cooked until soft enough. We both liked the pizza. Toppings are enough, cheesy, perfect sauce.... Let's talk about the ambiance. Southern italian country style cozy vibe. You can see a small spot for the photo shooting. Cute! The price is so high. I said the quality is great. They said they import the pasta from Italy. One great thing, I can get the reward points. Redeem $5 off next time. For the tip, check in on Yelp. 15% off first visit. Pros Portion, quality: 5/5 App rewards: 5/5 Yelp check in 15% off This location is not close from our home but we can come often for the pizzas. Cons Price: so high and self service compared to the upscale dining price Credit card 3% charge: This is my second experience to pay 3% credit card transaction fee at the restaurant. I don't see often. read more

I was so excited to discover a new pizza pasta restaurant in Orange. The location was right next to the liquor store on Glassel and Lincoln Ave. I already went over on Yelp 2 days ago what is the best pizza, pasta.... The space is not tiny, cute and cozy w Southern Italian country vibe remembering Napoli when I traveled in the past. We ordered the 16 inch deluxe pizza, custom based Fettuccine $15.99 w bolonaise, Shrimps extra $9, and Modelo 4 bottles. I noticed they charged 3% credit card transaction fee. Thank God! I used Yelp check in first visit w 15% discount. Overall, I liked they used the real Italian pasta and sauce. My hubby and I loved the pizza. Lots of cheese and toppings...just perfect. For the Fettuccine, actually little sour for me. When the owner asked us, how do you like the foods? I told him, Add a little sugar to reduce the sour taste. My hubby is Italian and I cook the pasta so often such as linguini, penne, fettuccine, rigatoni, ravioli, and etc. I cook completely until the pasta turns soft. I am not used the hard pasta texture and sour sauce. I always add little sugar, red pepper flake for the flavor. In my opinion, the price of pasta about $25 Fettuccine w bolonaise, extra Shrimps, I need something more fancy, fine upgraded dining vibe w great wine selections. I tried here for the first time today. My fave was a pizza. We took the leftover and will heat up in the air fryer to let the pizza crispy. Yum...for the dinner. They serve the toasted baguettes w butter. One great thing, get the reward points using the app. Just put the phone no. You can redeem for the future purchase. Pros Quality: 5/5 Service: self service, friendly Ambiance: cute, casual Parking: enough App Rewards: 5/5 Cons Xtra charge: 3% credit card transaction Price: so high read more

I was excited to try this place after seeing their menu options. Most of their signature pastas are priced at $20. I ordered the braised beef ravioli with pink sauce. Although I enjoyed the pink sauce & its creaminess, I received 5 pieces of the ravioli. I essentially paid $4/piece, which didn't satiate me & at this point made me rather buy ravioli at the store cause I was still hungry after. The cashier informed me they were running low on the meat ravioli so they'd replace 1 piece with cheese ravioli. My friend got his rigatoni pasta, which was filled up to the brim so I felt cheated out on mine. We went 30 mins before closing so they ran out of many options. Service was mediocre but I can understand why because it was so hot in there with only ceiling fans to ventilate. Not sure if I'd return but takeaway is don't order ravioli unless you're looking for a snack. read more

Pasta Party - Beef Braised Ravioli in pink sauce. Not even half of the bowl was filled :( - Pizza Near Me - Orange, California

Small spot for fresh pasta. Generous portion sizes for the pasta. Could not finish my dish because it is a generous serving size but also got a green salad on the side. First time trying and we ordered gnocchi as well as cacio a pepe. Gnocchi was DE-LI-CIOUS!! I wish I would've ordered this instead. Tasty, fresh Cacio a pepe left some things to be desired. I'm not an expert on this dish and I've only had it one other time at a food hall in Carlsbad. This one was missing something. It was spaghetti in white cheese sauce with a sprinkle of peppercorns. It needed a pop. Pasta tasted fresh though. Garden salad was good as well. No complaints there. Total for 3 dishes, and two drinks was around $60. Generous staff giving good service. Every order gets you some bread with some butter on the side. Place has more of a pizza joint feel and there were some families here and a couple college-age groups came in to dine. It's in a small corner lot next to a liquor store so it's not the nicest of locations. Just good food and good service. Would come back again read more

I got the short rib pappardelle, surprised it tasted like average short rib pappardelle. I'll definitely go again

I have ordered from this restaurant two nights in a row because it was that good. I have had their make your own pasta with fettuccine and pink sauce. Last night I had the gnocchi with pink sauce. It was the best gnocchi I have had in a while! I would buy that pink sauce if they sold it to go. For dessert, I had one of their almond cookies and it was divine. Perfect for carb loading before a race. Definitely give them a try! read more

Food is pricey! The place is pretty and cozy, and the attendant was friendly and approachable. The amount of food you get for what you pay is not worth it. read more

This has been by far the worst experience I've ever had! So it begins... We first get there Me & my family of 5, once there it took the cashier about 16min or more to get our order we then proceeded to pay for our food & drinks. Everything seemed to be going well until the time had exceeded to 50min, I understand it gets busy or short staffed or whatever it is, I'm okay with but then after the loooooong 50min wait the same cashier who took our order had came to our table to just to notified us that they had run out of items that from basically what most of our orders needed (heavy whipping cream) but only 5min before the party next to us had just received there Alfredo clearly !!! So if you want to waste over (an hour) of your time here around dinner time be my guest. Never again & I won't recommend this place to anyone. read more

Ordered a chopped salad with no added protein, and yet, it somehow still hadn't made its way to my table after almost 40 minutes. After multiple attempts at checking in at the counter, I finally gave up and asked for a refund. My son's pesto penne was decent. read more

The food was great and service was very friendly. My favorite was the rigatoni with pink sauce. I would order that again as the main dish. Spaghetti was my second favorite. Tasty, although I would not pay 5.50 for a single meatball. read more

Great food! Small indoors was a bit warm. Had a rough experience last visit but called and spoke to the owner. He offered to make it right and totally came through. I appreciate Ron's openness and honesty as the new owner. Seems like a great guy. Again, really great food. Love the chicken pesto and bolognese with meatballs (meat on meat all day please). Can't wait to try the Italian Short Rib sandwich. Locally owned small business need your support. This place is not to be missed read more

The food, service and ambience were great. I want to go back & try other things on the menu. The pizza looked delicious!

Found this place and have dinned here three weekends in a row. The pasta is delicious, had the trio with pesto and pink sauce. Reason I didn't give it 5 stars is due to the additional cost to add protein (got shrimp) which I had no problem with. Upon receiving the dish, I had to swim through the pasta to find the shrimp. To my surprise, it only came with 3. I believe the up charge is $6 which again I had no problem with however it was a bit disappointing. Again the food is delicious and I will return. read more

After looking for a place to eat in Orange this little gem popped up on Yelp. If it's one thing I'm going to do is look for a good place in the area. It's small inside but it's so cute! The owner & all of the staff were really nice! The food was also delicious! Mentioned the pasta is imported From Italy. I got the Rigatoni with chicken & the Pink Sauce. My friend got the Chicken Alfredo & we got a deluxe pizza. Everything was so delicious! The flavors were so on point & im not going to lie I wasn't expecting that. The chicken Alfredo is so creamy & perfect & I'm not even a Alfredo sauce fan but it was so good! Large portions & honestly I would come back! Definitely recommend if you're in the area don't overlook it! 10/10. read more

Tonight was one of the worst experiences we have ever had at a restaurant. The waitress looked extremely flustered when we entered and it took us about 20 minutes to even order. When the food came out, we only got the pasta that we ordered, not the salad or garlic bread. Within a few minutes, the waitress / cash register (Yesenia) left the restaurant without anyone to help the cook or customers and was gone for over an hour. We never got the rest of our food. Would not recommend this place as service was poor and if I could give zero stars, i absolutely would. read more

So this would be considered a hidden gem. Greeted as soon as you step in by welcoming staff. Parking was easily found. We did go during down time (3:00pm-4:30pm) as it was not busy. We placed our order with ease. Definitely bring card or device as they did not accept cash. They had some really cute decorations around. A place to be able to take photos of food, family, or friends. There's definitely room for small groups. If bigger than 10 ppl would recommend catering as the place is small and cozy. Our 9 year old had the spaghetti and gave it two very enthusiastic thumbs up. She really enjoyed it. Husband and I shared the Deluxe Pizza, got to see them prepare everything. The food was delicious. read more

You would never guess from the outside how good this place is. The pepperoni pizza so delicious and so was the creamy tomato rigatoni. My 14 month old loved everything!!! The only thing I'd like to see is better bread and better grass fed butter!!!! Other than that worth the drive and will be returning even if it's a 40 minute drive! read more

My friend and I were craving Italian and this place had good reviews. We were a little skeptical because the restaurant itself is between a donut shop and liquor store. However, the inside was clean and cute. They had a cute photo opt area to take pictures as well. The service was great. The lady helped us decide what was best. She recommended things since it was our first time. My friend and I did the Trio pasta which is so great because we could not decide on which sauce but wanted try a little of everything and it was delicious. We both enjoyed the taste of all three sauces we picked. My favorite was the pesto and pink sauce! The portion size was plenty and filling. Which was also great because I was able to take it home for my family to try and they loved it too. It definitely hit the spot for craving pasta. I would definitely go back and recommend this restaurant to anyone that is craving pastas! Don't let the outside ambience fool you! Restaurant was great. read more

We invited family from out of town here and it was a great set up. We got garlic bread with our dinner and water for the whole table. It is a very unassuming place which adds to the charm. We ordered 2 pizzas, a Marguerita and a bianco. They were delicious especially when adding chili flakes. We also got a ceasar salad, customized pasta, and the speciality pasta. It was very tasty and hot in terms of temperature. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal. The service was excellent and I definitely want to come back if I'm in the area. read more

Staff is extremely friendly. The restaurant is clean and comfortable. Pasta. The Gnocchi was the best I've had in many years. The sauce was truly something special and the reason I took the time to write this review. The pizza. I think if I had this pizza in a pizza restaurant, I would've really enjoyed it. However, when paired with something as stellar as Gnocchi I found myself leaving the pizza and couldn't stop enjoying the Gnocchi. . read more

Looking at this place from the outside you see potential because it's a hole-in-the-wall. You walk in and the decor screams mom & pop so you're in luck, right? Nope, not even close. You look over the menu and see a large selection and everything sounds good so you order. With the high prices you think you're getting the best of the best out at least you're expecting that. Once you start eating the food. B-L-A-N-D or G-R-O-S-S of which neither is good for your taste buds. Good thing I only blew $100 for a pizza and 2 dishes. Yeah, that's right. Overpriced + Overrated = Irritated Edit:12/04/2024 I received a reply from the owner. Now I know why the pizza was bland and the beef braised ravioli was gross. I'm going to logically draw a conclusion having 20 years of upper management experience that he's the root of the problem. Whether you agree or not, in my opinion he's very condescending as you'll see by his reply. Customer service starts at the top. If he deals with customers in this manner, imagine how he deals with his employees. Nobody likes working for this kind of person. I'm sure every now and then an employee feels frustrated so they want to let out their frustration. Sadly, we all know, or have heard of, employees who take it out on customers instead of their bosses. They could care less at the end of the day because they have one foot out the door. Anyway, here's the reply: "You know, putting details like date/time and also the food that you ordered would be much more helpful. This will allow me to narrow down if there was, in fact any issues at all. Also, what was bland? the pizza, pasta? What was gross and why was it gross? Yelp is an amazing platform to help business owners, if used properly." read more

The taste and quality were there , reminded me of an east coast chicken parm I grew up on but there was only one thin chicken patty on each half of the sandwich which made the sandwich mostly bread . Making the price not justified, at 21 dollars there needs to be a bit more protein . The sauce has a unique flavor . would come again to try their other options read more
