    Greek salad

    The food is always so good!! The staff is amazing!! They always want to please. Even if I have to drive 10 minutes out of my way. I will. Everything is so good!!

    Came in yesterday for our Anniversary. We've been coming here for years and I had the opportunity to try the lasagna. Incredible. They use Italian sausage for the meat instead of ground beef and it was amazing. I don't think I've had a better lasagna. It warmed my heart more than anything seeing how the female staff worked together. They have a real camaraderie with each other and were genuinely happy to be with work friends. It made the experience wonderful

    I have seen Presto Pasta while driving on the 101 north and wondered how the food was. Today, I was able to try Presto for the first time. I'm impressed. The food here is fresh and tastes like it. Everything from the salad, to the pasta tasted freshly made when I ordered it. The Caesar Salad with chicken was very good, and very fresh. The pasta with chicken was very good also, The service is fast, and friendly, and they have drive thru ordering. I always find it funny to order Italian food at a drive thru. The prices are actually very good. I didn't feel that i had paid too much for the food I ordered. Presto Pasta has 5 locations and I would recommend.

    We are happy to have a quality fast service Italian restaurant in Camarillo. The quality and quantity may not be as nice as Buca Di Beppo, Olive Garden, or Ottavio's, but it's nice to be able to have a casual Italian dinner without having to spend hours for a meal. Best of all, this place supports school and PTA fundraisers! Ambiance: It's okay for a fast food restaurant. The nice thing about this location is the booth seating. The dining room is a little loud and you are sitting very nearby other tables, so not much privacy. They also have an outdoor seating area. Service: Good service at the counter when ordering and when the food is being served by the servers. The menu is very big, so the staff is very patient and accommodating to our questions and orders. Food: The food is delicious for being fast food. The noodles for all of our dishes were cooked well and the sauces were all tasty. We also had a salad that looked very fresh and a soup that has good ingredients. It's also nice to be able to order wine at such a casual restaurant. Camarillo is lucky to have Pesto Pasta. There are more locations across Ventura County, so I recommend this place to anyone wanting a quality and quick Italian meal.

    In the heart of the great city of Camarillo sits Presto Pasta. Walking in, the decor was nice with an indoor overhead glass patio on one of its side, reminiscent of the restaurant by the bay in Newport Beach. I always loved seeing those style of architecture in the restaurant as it adds to the uniqueness to this place. Additionally, this place boasts a drive-thru to beat. Unfortunately, all good things end there. While the inside is nice with a vase of rose/flower as a centerpiece, I can't tell if I'm at a Wendy's, Carl's Junior, or an upscale restaurant. I see wine glass on the table, juxtaposed by the coca cola free style machine in the foreground. I see counter placards like Carl's Jr Fast food when you place an order so the servers know where you are located for the food. However, I do have to say that it makes the restaurant unique so perhaps don't change that or take this review of the decor too seriously. Ah, the food, yes let's talk about the food for that is the main point of this review. For the price, the food is rather found wanting. While the presentation is nice, the food lacks volume in terms of taste. Sampling the penne parmesan, it looks kind of watery and tasted as such, with the sharp tomato taste cutting through with the acidity. The chicken was kind of dry. I tasted my friend's alfredo linguini and while it tasted slightly better, both of the food did not leave me wanting to take another bite. Lastly, the price is kind of expensive for the food that you're ordering, with everything being at least $15+ The food reminds me of cafeteria food in elementary school, despite the best effort of grating parmesan cheese by the tableside by the servers. I feel if the restaurant were to lower its price, it might gain another star as appropriate to the quality of the food being served.

    It was Friday evening and after a two hour basketball workout, I was craving some pasta. Given that I was only a couple minutes away, I decided to give Presto Pasta's Camarillo location a try. Called in an order for my go-to, the Chicken Parmigiana. No combo or sides, just a small request to add freshly grated Parmesan cheese on top of the pasta. Repeated it two more times just to confirm they understood. I arrive 10 minutes later, the chicken parm is ready to go and one of their employees rings me up. I notice a $2 up charge for 2 slices of cheese, so I ask "did you put fresh Parmesan cheese on the pasta?" The employee replies "ummm not sure, let me check... I dont know, I think they put extra mozzarella slices on the chicken." Saddened, I told him it was fine and I'll just take it as is. Immediately, a younger blonde worker comes and says "we can fix that for you!!" She took the plate, opened the lid, and added a generous amount of fresh grated Parmesan. Hallelujah! I told her thank you so much multiple times, and off I went. Too bad I didn't catch her name, because her prompt eagerness to fix the problem is a great employee attribute! Now for the dish. The pasta was yummy, cooked perfectly, and layered with a nice amount of cheese. The chicken was hiding somewhere under that double blanket of cheese, but was crispy and warm. Garlic bread was pretty good, nice even coating but almost seemed store bought to me. 3.5 stars. But since I'm in a good mood, and the meal satisfied my craving, I'll round up to 4 today.

    Where else can you find counter-service Italian food for great prices? Even better is when the food is pretty good. Lucky for us in the 805, there are three Presto Pasta locations (and the one in Camarillo has a drive thru!) My go to is the Chicken parm sandwich with the garlic Parmesan knots. It's a great yummy combo for me. My wife loves the eggplant parm dish, and my son enjoys the mozzarella appetizer. Lastly and the best part is that they sell Cheesecake Factory cheesecakes. You can't beat that! So if you love Italian food and live in the 805, Presto Pasta is work checking out!

    They also seem to be busy.

    We started our unplanned day in Camarillo Old Town with lunch at Freda's Pizza. Yelp reviews said…read moreit gets busy during the weekends, so we arrived right when they opened. There were a couple people already waiting in line when we arrived, but no one at the register. After a few more minutes the people ahead of us got tired of waiting and left. We had already had our minds set on a few menu items to try so we waited. The team member who took our order was very nice but a bit slow at the register. We weren't in a rush, so it didn't really bother us. The husband was quite hungry, so we ended up over-ordering -- House Chips & Cheese, Potato Bacon Pizza, Short-Rib Melt and Pastrami. It all came our pretty fast and it was ALOT (lol)! The House Chips were generous, fresh and tasty. The Potato Bacon pizza was delicious! The sandwiches, although flavorful, were kinda skimpy. We felt that we were biting into mostly bread. The fries were hot and super crispy. Service was great overall. There's a flat screen TV in the middle of the dining room that was showing college football. I liked that takeout boxes for leftovers were easily accessible to everyone. There's ample seating inside and several picnic tables at the shared area outside. The layout is nice with three connected establishments -- Freda's, Rori's and Topa Topa. Something for the entire family! :)

Salads are big and they have a variety. Service is hit or miss to be honest. I've gone and it's been spot on, quick, and attentive. I've also gone and it's take 45 minutes for one pizza to be made. I think they have gone through new employees over the years and when it's new employees working the service can be slow. I know one time I was in there and the kid behind the register was going snails pace...unfortunately this was on the local college's graduation day so the place was packed. I should have known better. Like any place, try to go during non-peak hours. Easier said than done with work and such. We just went on a Friday at opening (12pm) and the service was fantastic. We like to sit outside in the covered patio. Parking is awful as the Blvd is always busy. Just have to pray and try to time it out nicely. I do appreciate that Freda's is next to and in same building as Rori's ice cream and Topa Topa Brewing. Pizza, ice cream, and beer/hard seltzer/ciders. And Cafe Ficelle is also next door so add good iced coffee to the mix! Good combination for a couple of hours with friends and the kids.

It just doesn't hit the same. Not sure it is the crust or sauce but something is off.

    Uh nope. Came back to this place today and had a completely different experience than in the past…read more The pizza was gross, burnt and tasted like a 7/11 pizza that sat under a heat lamp. There's nowhere to sit which is crazy to me considering the quality of the food. Eventually you have to opt to sit at a dirty table and clean it yourself. The pizza is overpriced and extremely overrated, probably due to the lack of option in the area. My party and I all looked at each other and said we won't be coming back. Even my kid didn't like his cheese pizza, eating just 1 slice and taking the cheese off. I was extremely disappointed as this was nowhere near my last experience. The only reason I'm giving 2 stars is because the salad bar was a nice options and well stocked. What's worse is I'm not sure what's greasier, their pizza or the hand soap in their restroom. I tried to wash the grease off my hands only to be left with another film coating the previous grease instead of washing it off. Overall it wasn't a good experience. Well that's this critic's review, until next time, I'll be eating.
