I have walked by this place many times and today i finally decided to give it a try. The worker helped break down the ordering process and was very helpful while doing so. I ordered a rigatoni with vodka sauce, chicken, broccoli and parmesan cheese. The pasta was very flavorful, cooked al dente and the portion was perfect. The price of the food was great considering the quality of the dish. I would definitely recommend this spot when visiting barton creek! read more

Pastissimo - Vodka Rigatoni with chicken, broccoli and parmesan cheese. - Italian Near Me - Austin, Texas

Surprised how good this was!!! Located inside the mall, parking was easy. The space itself is small, but has a few indoor tables and some outside in the mall. Service was very sweet and kind, appreciated his patience as I was trying to decide what to get! Now these portions are generous, can make two meals out of a small bowl. The pasta was very fresh and cooked al dente. Was not expecting to like it as much as I did. Decided to go with a three cheese sauce which was VERY creamy. Would get it again. The bread stick reminded me of olive gardens and was nostalgic. Everything was very reasonably priced. HIGHLY recommend visiting! read more

Pastissimo - Small rotini with three cheese sauce, Parmesan cheese, sun-dried red peppers and breadstick - Italian Near Me - Austin, Texas

I'll be honest, I don't really like pasta, like at all, but this place has changed my mind! I was impressed by the process that the pasta was made (they make it in-house), interesting concept, portion sizes, the joy that the waiter had, and the unique flavors. I got the beet rotini pasta with poblano sauce (recommended by the waiter) and bacon, it was so good! The waiter made a good recommendation about the poblano sauce; it had a nice smoky flavor that was most likely due to the poblano being roasted before it was combined with the cream to make the sauce, and it was such an unexpected delight that I (unregrettably) wolfed down the whole bowl will definitely be returning read more

Pastissimo - Beet Rotini with Poblano Sauce and Bacon - Italian Near Me - Austin, Texas

This is a small restaurant located on the first floor of Barton Creek Square. Staff is friendly and explained how to order. You can customize the bowl by size, pasta type, sauce, protein and toppings. The rigatoni with poblano sauce and chicken I got was good! I like heavy cream, so it was an enjoyable meal for me but I don't think it's symbolic of traditional Italian pasta dishes. It kinda tasted like enchiladas. My husband got the beet rotini (this was interesting!) with meat sauce and bacon. The first bites were ok, but surprisingly gets better the more you eat it. I like how both pastas are served hot! It's a good stop for when you're hungry after walking around the mall but not necessarily a place I would go out of my way for to try. read more

Some decent pasta, I'm not going to lie. They give you a reasonable amount of food and fill a gap that is lacking here in Austin. My inly gripe is that it's a bit pricier than I would usually pay for and you have to pay extra for things like meat. Maybe it's just me, but.every pasta dish I've ever had came with meat as part of the entree. But again, decent pasta from a food truck, right by barton springs, what's not to love. read more

Handcrafted pasta? Hold my shopping bags! This spot is a great addition to the mall. I love all of the options on the menu. The employees were kind and explained the process. Taking my order went smoothly. I got the rotini with meat sauce and mushroom. I also ordered a bread stick. My pasta was so tasty and a good quantity to be a medium. I loved the meat sauce as well. The bread stick was fresh! It was so warm and full of flavor. My meal was so comforting ! I will definitely go again. read more

This is such a small, adorable little restaurant with a charming Italian feel. From the moment I walked in, I loved the cozy atmosphere. I ordered the tortellini with a salad, and everything was absolutely delicious. The pasta was perfectly cooked -- not overdone at all -- with just the right texture and consistency. The Parmesan cheese blended beautifully and added such a rich, wonderful flavor. It was flavorful, perfectly cheesy, and incredibly satisfying. Children would absolutely love this dish as well because it's so comforting and full of flavor. The salad was fresh and vibrant with carrots, tomatoes, and kale -- very healthy and crisp. It complemented the pasta perfectly. When I arrived, it wasn't very busy, so I was able to order right away. The food came out within about 15 minutes, which was great service. They also have beet pasta (which I highly recommend!). It was delicious and something a little different -- such a nice touch. Overall, I truly enjoyed my meal and will definitely be coming back. read more

Pastissimo is a clutch food truck option on UT campus. It is super convenient and honestly offers great food for a very reasonable price, which is exactly what you want as a student. I got the large bowl of pasta with poblano sauce and added chicken. The large bowl was actually pretty filling and easily enough for a solid meal. Adding chicken was only an extra dollar, which is a steal, and they definitely do not skimp on toppings. Everything felt generous and worth the money. The poblano sauce had good flavor and paired really well with the chicken. Nothing fancy, but very satisfying and comforting. Service was fast, which is huge when you are between classes. read more

Great option if you're looking for a quick bite to eat at the mall. I got the fettuccine with poblano sauce at the recommendation of the cashier. I also added some chicken for protein. The sauce is pretty unique as I've never had a poblano based sauce before. The noodles were great, and you can tell they make it in-house. The chicken was quite dry, but it's really not the focus of the meal. The portion sizes are pretty generous. I ordered a medium and wasn't able to eat it all in one sitting. Overall, this is a solid choice. read more

If you're looking for a filling meal that is nutritious and won't break the bank you found the right place, and not to mention it's delicious! The pasta is homemade in house every day, you can watch it as you order. They have many options for pasta shapes, sauces, toppings, and proteins. I got a size medium which was filling and gave me lunch for the next day! We ordered the beet pink rotini, and per the recommendation of the staff tried the meat sauce on one pasta and the poblano on another with bacon and parm toppings. The pasta was delectable. I can't decide which I liked more because they were both so unique. The poblano wasn't a spicy pepper taste like you'd imagine but so luscious creamy and had the perfect hint of pepper without the heat. The meat sauce was hearty and filling, made with a hint of wine which definitely comes through but was incredible. They have a variety of toppings and protein options and cost of a pasta is anywhere from $3-10 depending on your toppings and portion size. The staff is very friendly, approachable, and quick to get food out. We had our meal within 5 minutes and they checked to make sure everything was tasting good. Can't think of a better location next to the AMC, next time you need a late night bite after a movie this should be your go to. Thank you to the staff for the wonderful meal and company. read more

MAY BE PERMANENTLY CLOSED! I really like the fresh pasta and most of their sauces. I love this place! Unfortunately, the last few times I walked by in the mall, they were closed during hours they were supposed to be open. They were closed a few days ago on Sunday and they were closed today, Friday, May 8, 2026,an afternoon when one would think they would be open for one of the biggest evenings of the week. They may be shut down for good. :( read more

First time here was great they just opened. Food was good got something classic to try rotini with marinara and parm. The fresh pasta has a nice bite and the sauce was flavorful. The staff was nice and the cashier was helpful and sweet. We will be getting this after every movie we watch at the mall. read more

Neat pasta spot! Super cool concept - build your own pasta adventure/bowl. My favorite part is that they make their pasta fresh and it looks like in house. I got to watch them cut fresh spaghetti noodles out of the machine. Good price point and quick. They're located just next to the AMC movie theater inside Barton Creek Mall. I'm assuming the person who helped us must have been the owner or mgr, but she did a great job explaining the process. It's a small space to eat in with about 3 tables with cool decor in the tables. There's some tables right outside their doors as well. I like the quick service and options. It's a nice spot for quick fresh pasta, made the way you want it. Pasta was quite delicious as well, even after sitting in the to-go container for our drive back home up north. Wish the location was more convenient, as we live up north. But great food option if you're inside the mall and don't want to eat at the food court or quick meal before your movie! read more

I BELIEVE THIS PLACE IS PERMANENTLY CLOSED!!! I would've been their most valued customer. Google claims they are open when they are not. I've gone 3 times when it says they're open. I'm really disappointed. It is was so good- I'll forever miss their Alfredo sauce. read more

Such a fun concept. Pick your pasta, sauce, protein and add ons. The pasta and veggies were delicious and fresh tasting. Super friendly and helpful service and workers. Hopefully they will expand to more locations. Great choice for a quick, yummy lunch! read more

Pastissimo - Rotini, vodka sauce and broccoli - Italian Near Me - Austin, Texas

I really do enjoy the food but I find myself constantly coming to the mall and when the restaurant is supposed to be open it's always closed with the chairs on the tables. Hours need to be updated or better communication with the customers they serve needs to happen. read more

This is such a hidden gem in the Barton Creek mall. They use fresh ingredients and every single pasta sauce is delicious. We definitely enjoy stopping by and taking home the pasta every time we shop. Even though we take takeout when it gets home, it's still very fresh and delicious! If you do not want pasta, they also have salad and a ton of different toppings. They are also very accommodating to any allergens. If you dine in the tables are always clean and everything is neat. Definitely give them a try if you have not yet! read more

The staff is super friendly and makes sure you know how the menu works as soon as you walk in. The pasta was perfectly cooked and the sauces - I tried marinara and Alfredo - were very tasty. I would love a place like this in the Dallas area. read more

The pasta is really good. The owner Rosalinda is very pleasant. This is our second time here. Our first time here, she gave us some recommendations and they were all fantastic. read more

Randomly stopped here after seeing a movie at the mall and was blown away. We got the 3 cheese and a meat sauce pasta and both were absolutely delicious. read more

Great place to get some quality pasta and amazing customer service. Staff is friendly and explained the concept which was pretty straightforward. I had the Rotini with 3 chess sauce and the breadstick. Very well made and would go back to eat there if I shop next time at the Barton Creek Square. read more

They are pretty good, a little like stouffers! But I still think they are good!! Seems fresh
