After seeing all the great reviews, I had to try this place... It's a bit intimidating at first since it appears that there's a long line. However, they're efficient. They get the pasta out FAST. So, I had two different dishes. Both were good, but not amazing. However, they were definitely cheap and restaurant quality. A good place for a quick bite to eat around the Vatican. read more

A must go to the best pasta I ever had on my trip to rome. Amazing price and quality.

Pastasciutta favorite pasta restaurant during my week stay in Rome! They have a selection of pasta and a special menu that rotates. My favorite was definitely the spaghetti alla carbonara but I also tried a ravioli in a lemon-butter sauce that was delicious. It's conveninently placed right next to St. Peter's Square in the Vatican. You can watch them cook your fresh pasta and it's ready within minutes. Each dish is only 5-6 euros too! Note that during meal times there is often a sizable line so get there early to beat the rush. There isn't much seating space so it may be a good idea to order take out or eat along the street next to the shop. read more

PLEASE stop by here if you're looking for take it away pasta! It's delicious and cheap. This little shop (with 6ish seats) is a 5 minute walk from Vatican City. Each dish is already a hefty size and comes in a cute container or plate if you're dining in. However you can double the portion for a small fee (2 euros). The carbonara was the best!!! read more

This is a superb pasta Take Away place! We had two very nice pastas at Pastasciutta for lunch today. The Pasta is freshly made in the little kitchen which you can see from the tiny eat-in "bar seating". There was a full house and a small line but our food was ready in approx 5min. The place is located just behind St. Peters Square so take your pasta To Go in the excellent Take Away containers when you have seen the church and sit on the stone hedge at the little square just around the corner. The pastas are simple but very tasteful and prices around 5-6 euros - what's not to like read more

Amazing tasty pasta!!! I would definitely come back here again! This place has well priced food that tastes expensive! We ordered the carbonara which was very good. The pesto was also amazing. The mushroom pasta was probably my favorite. It was the perfect amount of seasoning. The last one we got was the bolognese pasta. Overall, if you're looking for takeout, this is the place to go. Beware, there aren't many seats so just be prepped. read more

We came here after spending 40€ on two waters and two gelatos from a cafe nearby, defeated and in need for some comfort. The pasta here does not disappoint. We ate here multiple times over our period in Rome. My husband and I ordered the pesto and immediately called his mother to tell her her regarded pesto has lost its place as top contender because it was that heavenly. read more

Our last meal in Roma, we were looking for some cacio e Pepe to try before we left the city, so we strolled by this little pasta shop. All the pasta was handmade in front of us and it was quick & delicious. Portions are a lovely size - not enormous, not too small. As Americans we tend to be used to huge plates of food, but this bowl of pasta was the perfect size to fuel our sightseeing. The quality of the noodles was fabulous - fresh handmade pasta tends to have that excellent al dente bite to it, and this did not disappoint! Will absolutely return next time we're in Rome. read more

Pastasciutta - Cacio e pepe - Pasta Shops Near Me - Rome, RM

Pastasciutta is the perfect place for pasta. It has fast service and quality pasta, all at a reasonable price. The small to-go restaurant is right next to St. Peter's square and is a five minute walk from the Vatican museum. I have ordered the classic fusili with tomato sauce pasta for 5€, and the pesto pasta for 6€. The pasta is made in less than ten minutes, and even less if there is not a large line. Although the place is small, one can catch a glance at the pasta being prepared and cooked inside. Most people sit on the curb outside, eating their hand made pasta or slices of pizza from the pizzeria next door. Take out is also available, which I found handy because they give a lid, fork, and bag to carry the pasta in. I like how the pasta comes steaming hot and fresh, and the portions are large. read more

I really liked the homemade pasta and sauces. Not a huge selection and not much seating, but really worth stopping by if you're visiting the Vatican area. read more

I enjoyed this place very much it had a few faults. First thing, the girl in the front where you place the order was more interested in her phone than she was for me. And that's fine I get it, but I stood there like a bozo until she was finally ready to take my order. Anyway she finally does and I wait for the food it came rather quickly. The food was good I had the cacio e pepe and my wife the truffle. Both were delicious however when I got the bottom of the cacio e pepe it was very strong. Too much pecorino I believe but still I enjoyed it. My tongue was burning from the cheese. Wine here only $2 euro that's impressive. Recommended to come here by a friend and I liked his recommendation. read more

Came here after walking for hours around Vatican City and it did not disappoint. There is limited seating since they only have one counter that seats about 6 and an outside standing counter. Highly recommend the Pasta Carbonara but all of them looked really good and they are fast! read more

Amazing Carbonara, no place to sit just sit outside on the sidewalk with everyone else and enjoy some of the best pasta you'll ever eat. The food is ready in 5 minutes. read more

My fiancé saw found this place on yelp & we saw it had good reviews so we decided to try it. We got two papparelle with mushrooms, strozzapreti with pesto & papparelle with ragu all of them for $23 euros. Every one of them was so tasty, it was like a endless pasta bowl. Definitely get your money's worth everything tasted so good! Highly recommend it! read more

Pastasciutta - So good! Take it for to go & they'll put them in their bowls & with forks & napkins - Pasta Shops Near Me - Rome, RM

Have been to 20 countries and used yelp for years, this is my first review. Don't go here, no seating, stale food. read more

I've gotta give it to you. This place makes their own pasta noodles. You can actually see them making it. Also, for two people trying to cook a shitload of pasta dishes in 3 mins or less..they do a great job. We ordered 3 pasta bowls and I believe we got it all under 10 mins. Surprisingly fast but tbh the pastas were ok. Not something to come back for. The sauce was frozen then heated then boiling hot pasta was poured over. read more

Pastasciutta - Three pastas. The pizzas were from next door. I believe it was very popular too. - Pasta Shops Near Me - Rome, RM

Hands down one of the best pastas I've ever had!!! If you are in Vatican it is a must!!! Loved everything there! There is a line there obviously so try their take out it is worth it! It is not a tourist trap! read more

Oh my god. My first plate of pasta in Italy and I can't even believe how great it was. I got the cacio de Pepe and I would I could have it every day for the rest of my life. Truly the best pasta I think I will ever have. And the price! Omg the price is amazing! You have to try this place before or after you visit the Vatican, it's right around the corner. You'll not be disappointed. read more

We were in Rome and was told by a friend to eat some spaghetti carbonara. So we did, and Pastasciutta is a good place to get some good pasta dishes for an affordable price. If you are near the Da Vinci museum check them out for lunch! read more

Cheap, fresh and near the Vatican! Four pasta items on menu, we opted for ravioli. Next to Alice Pizza; a worthy alternative. read more

Pastasciutta - Edgar's loving this pasta! - Pasta Shops Near Me - Rome, RM

Came here a year and a half ago and today it's still as good as I remember. The prices are the same too (5,50 euro for all except the one with mushrooms, which is 6 euro). I'd suggest going here with a group if you can to try all of them. Or you can just order everything on your own--no shame in that. The cacio e pepe is delicious. The carbonara is very flavorful. The ragu is just the right amount of hearty. There are seats at the counter, but a lot of people stand outside to eat. It doesn't matter where you eat it. Just come prepared to eat this perfectly cooked paper plate pasta. read more

Great little place with amazing food and great prices especially in Rome. The pay is freshly made to order which I enjoy and they're not shy with the sauce/topping you choose. The place is very small so be willing to eat outside or alongside other people. Very popular in the area due to the Vatican and it's monuments in the area. Highly recommended for a quick bit or meal. read more

There's really something to be said about simplicity. After a long vatican tour, my wife and i were famished we did a quick yelp search and Pastasciutta popped up and we decided to go there for a quick lunch. From Vatican square the restaurant is a short 5 min walk. The restaurant itself is rather small, half the space is taken by the register and the kitchen and the other half is basically just a bar with 5-7 stools. When we arrived there wasn't a huge line but there were people already waiting for their orders.My wife ordered the Ragu and I ordered the pesto. They also offer sodas as well as beer (as any good italian establishment should. The food came out relatively quickly, about 10 - 15 min. When we got our food, it was well worth the wait. My wife's ragu was rich and tomatoey and delicious. The pasta was perfectly al dente. My pesto was full of basil goodness and again the pasta was perfectly al dente. For 11 euros total, this is definitely the definition of "Woohoo! As good as it gets!" Happy eats! read more

Their pasta is around 5-7 Euros each and the serving is pretty large but it's so good you could easily finish the whole serving. Let me say that the pasta doesn't really have meat in it unless you order Carbonara or Bolonese but the sauce is sooooo good! I have been to Rome twice now and I always make sure I visit this place for a welcome meal. Can't wait to visit Rome again for this! For real! read more

Spent a exhausting morning walking around the Vatican or just queuing for a glimpse inside the basilica. This place is great for a quick and small meal. The sign reads 2-3 minutes, ready while you wait. There's no large seating area but you get a proper disposable fork and cup so you can just keep going or eat it somewhere with a view. They have just enough pastas on the menu to make the choice easy, all fresh and home made, cooked a la minute. And very tasty. Great concept going on there. read more

Pastasciutta is like an Italian chipotle. It's one of the best pasta place I have tried in Rome. They make their pasta's fresh and cook it in your face. The carbonara and the Ragú was delicious. I only paid 11 euros for 2 plates of pasta and they were well served. Great customer services and food. You will find it by the Vatican so make sure you stop by for a delicious plate of food. read more

Big portion for an affordable price. So delicious. I would definitely go again. Friendly staff.

Amazing, fresh pasta! On par with the much more expensive restaurants. It's conveniently tucked away about 5 minutes or so from the Vatican Museum. It's small on the inside with a little room for sitting, but you can also get takeaway. So glad my friend and I stumbled into this little place! read more

The pasta here is great! I had the pasta with Marinara sauce - that was the better of the two that we got. The other one was pasta carbonara. Both were good. It's a little hole in the wall place with very little room to sit down and eat (just a bar style seating for 5 along a wall. Nothing fancy. The pasta comes out on paper plates with plastic utensils but the food is great, fast, cheap and staff are friendly. Perfect for what it is. read more

Delicious!! The perfect stop after visiting Vatican City. Only a five minute walk away. There are six pasta types and all are under 6,50 euros. I had the carbonara and it was incredible. Pretty big size portions. Everything is made in around 5 minutes. It might be hard to find a seat inside. read more

Excellent. Great food and service. Loved the ambiance. Thank you for a truely great meal.
