If you like an authentic Italian food, you'll like this place. Especially for how good the price is. Service was great, literally had to keep updating and updating the order more than one time but they were understandable and didn't mind at all (even tho the menu is not that long but sometimes I can be indecisive lol) even added extra cheese with the grater to our fettuccine Ended up with the : -Sampler combo (meat lasagna,chicken piccata and fettuccine Alfredo) which sounded good! 10/10 -pepperoni pizza (personal size) 8/10 a little too personal/on the smaller side lol -add on salad+drink for $6. Which is a great deal imo 7/10 Caesar salad was great. Drink ughhh I just hate that all in one machine so much it's my nemesis lol. Everything was extremely flavorful and rich, and overall everything tasted fresh as well. The place was super clean and even tho we were here closer to closing, they didn't mind at all. Place had classic music playing in the background with all of the posters and drawings hanging up just hit differently. Overall, it was a super great experience, and I recommend it very much to anyone. read more

Presto Pasta is a true hidden gem in Santa Clarita. I absolutely love their shrimp fettuccine (I hope that is what is called). Personally, I feel is as delicious as Olive Garden, but for a more accessible price. Service is also top notch there- Sam and the other staff members (can't recall all the names) are very kind and just give you a great service. Love this place! read more

Been coming here since day one. Still has the freshest and reasonable priced fast food around. Keep it up. Just my humble opinion. read more

Presto Pasta Valencia, CA Affordable, fast, and surprisingly flavorful Presto Pasta nails the casual Italian vibe. I tried the Chicken Piccata and Garlic Parmesan Knots, and both were fresh, hot, and generously portioned. The staff was friendly, and the space had a clean, welcoming feel. It's not gourmet, but for a quick pasta fix that doesn't skimp on taste, it hits the spot. read more

The pasta is good but I've received bread with mold on it which has me questioning their food handling practices.

Esmeralda took are order. Extremely difficult to order what we had the last 10 times. The Minestrone Soup seemed to be a different recipe than before. Extremely salty and tomato taste. Not good. In general the food was the worst. Never going back. The assistant manager very extremely unfriendly and rude. ( Esmeralda). read more

I ordered the fettuccine Alfredo with chicken and broccoli absolutely horrible bland no flavor whatsoever I'm so disappointed read more

Food was just okay wasn't great. Was not impressed and won't come back. Was disappointed. The only thing good was the cost of menu items

The food was great, but the service was even better! Alison brought my pasta, and I noticed it had onions, which I don't like. Without any attitude, she immediately offered to change it for me. She was so kind and attentive, and the overall service was outstanding. The food quality was excellent, and I'll definitely be coming back!. read more

Presto Pasta - Carbonara pasta - Italian Near Me - Santa Clarita, California

We have gone back a few time since my first time. This is definitely one of my kids' favorite places. I tell them, I can make cheese butter pasta at home and they said, but it doesn't taste as good! Ha! One thing I know that I can't make as well is the garlic knots. But I have to try because they are so so good! Again it's fast casual American Italian food. Please don't expect a high end gourmet meal. But it's a great family friendly place that is reasonably priced with fair portions and prices. Make sure to hit their beverage area where they have olive oil and balsamic vinegar for your bread dipping needs. They also have nice fresh lemonades that make the perfect Arnold Palmer with the tea. I do wish they would season and cook the veggies a little better. They are always so bland and hard. But I always eat it with the chicken and it's ok. The garlic knots had an odd shape this time around, but fortunately they still tasted good. read more

My kids love this place, which already says a lot. The pasta kids meals are a great deal and the portions are perfect. It's one of those spots that makes going out with kids easy and enjoyable, and we always leave happy. read more

Had an amazing experience at Presto Pasta today. The service was amazing it was me and my wife's first time here and the staff was more than happy to help out and make suggestions. I got the fettuccine Alfredo (10/10 big props to the chefs in the back) and my wife got a Cajun shrimp pasta that was also a 10/10. Staff was welcoming and attentive the dinning area was spotless. Every time someone got up one of the staff members were up and cleaning the tables. Bathroom was also spotless. They also bake fresh cookies which is such a great sweet treat !! Thank you for the great experience!! Definitely recommend read more

Service was excellent. Friendly and efficient. The place was clean and nice. The price has continually gone up, with an extra $5 for the more pasta option. I understand that. What I'm not too happy about was the sparse meat sauce. Hardly any ground beef, so it felt anemic. Nothing like how it used to be. I wish they'd rectify this situation. But I'll be back. read more

Food is great no matter what you order, and you get your money's worth, so go hungry! Service is great every time I was there with friendly workers behind the counter to take your order or take your special requests on your meal order. My special request and a favorite plate (among others) is the Eggplant Parmesan, cooked just a bit longer. I like mine a bit toasty. Ambiance is great for everyone including your little ones. They have a menu and drinks fit for all ages, including a cool drink machine which you can scroll and pick your favorite drink from many flavored sodas, Fanta drinks, teas, lemonades and my favorite, Lemon/Strawberry drink. The ambiance is friendly and have comfortable tables with booths. For children, A large gum ball machine with plastic balls filled with trinkets inside each one. At the counter the child is given a coin to put in the giant gum ball machine and turn the dial for their free toy. A very welcoming ambiance for everyone to enjoy, including seniors! Oh! Just saw I left a review 6 months ago. Still loving the place. ;) read more

I come here probably once a week or so. I typically order angel hair pasta with marinara cream sauce. Its OK. The 2 things that baffle me: they serve pasta with parmesan, then come to your table and ask you if you would like parm on your dish. Why can't you just serve without if you're coming to the table to grate it anyway. (Some people like me don't like parm, or am I the only one?) Secondly, why is the garlic toast only toasted on one side? It has so much potential if toasted on both sides. And it is so weak and unappetizing toasted on only one side. I like crisp, hot garlic bread. Atmosphere is fine, price is fair and staff are generally OK with a few hit and miss. read more

Presto Pasta - Angel hair with marinara cream sauce and garlic toast (only toasted on one side) - Italian Near Me - Santa Clarita, California

Food was a bit cold unfortunately. Loved the idea of a quick pasta spot but this missed the mark for me. Sorry to say.

Alison is a really good sever she is so chill and it's A 10/10 service and they all cook fast so you get your food right away

The blonde worker told my son that he doesn't look under 13 and can't have a kids meal even when I showed him proof to get a kids meal. Still didn't let me get a meal!!! I really can't fathom how rude it is to deny money as a cashier. Horrid..... read more

Stopped here on my way to Ventura they have a very good 10 dollar lunch special. I got the Caesar salad and fettuccine Alfredo and it was very good. My boyfriend got the tomato bisque and spaghetti and he really liked it. The workers were all very kind and nice and helped with recommendations. Service was good. Ambiance was nice and chill and good break from the road. read more

Presto pasta is an Italian a fast food Pizza Pasta and Salads restaurant, that also caters. Hope they open more Presto Pasta at Burbank CA and through out Southern California! What I appreciate is the offering of diffeent combinations of pasta and toppings as well as sides. Ive ordered different dishes and love the combination plates. The Chicken Piccata, Lasagna and Fettucini Alfredo on a flat plate is an awesome value and delicious! Do try the zoodles (zucchini noodles) with the putanessca sauce. I appreciate that there is a Coke machine that gives a many different varieties of soda. Now as delicious as the food is, and the casual ambiance relaxing, the staff are byond friendly, welcoming, and accommodating. By the way manger SAM and staff of the Granada Hills and Santa Clarita Presto Pasta are outstanding with above and byond customer service. Sam was sincerely open to listening to my constructive comments of pasta and vegetable preparation that I hope make a difference. Sam even goes around asking diners how their food is. As well I like the fact that I can tell the order taker that I prefer my pasta well done and vegetables soft. Delicious, practical, comfortable, and great customer service = "Viva" Presto Pasta ! read more

To the manager: I wish your staff would actually grill the chicken. It tasted and looked like boiled chicken without any seasoning. So unappetizing!! If the menu says grilled chicken, then it should be GRILLED CHICKEN. That's just laziness if you ask me. Maybe walk around the kitchen once in a while, and randomly taste things to see what they're actually putting out for the customer. I mean....we are paying for it after all!! read more

Food was gross. Order take out and had the hardest, driest chicken. Couldn't even bite into it.

Really good food and customer service. They were very welcoming and explained the differences between all the salads they had since we were getting a combo. The girl that rang us up even asked if everything was ok during our meal which isn't typical in restaurants like this. The portion size is great for the price you pay. This could easily be a $20 meal at any other Italian restaurant. Everything felt very fresh. Bathrooms were well stocked and clean. The only thing I would say that needs improvement is the salad and the upholstery. The salad was lacking cucumbers but, I'm guessing it's premade and they just use tongs to serve it in a bowl. The seats at the booth were ripped so some remodeling could help make this place look even better than it already does. I would love to come back here if I didn't live so far away. :( read more

I personally really enjoy and recommend this restaurant. Their service is outstanding as they are courteous and attentive. Price is very reasonable and food is great and always fresh. I really enjoy the atmosphere in this place. I have discovered Presto Pasta just by chance while coming out of the Target store in the same shopping center and stopped in for lunch. Lastly they have numerous options on the menu, not just a pizza place. read more

My first impression tonight after not being here for a while was that there were at least six tables that were dirty or not cleared. Not good. See picture. I would prefer nothing on the table over dead flowers. See picture. Then the wrong order was delivered. I find that having a piece of paper in my pasta isn't a particularly good thing. My wife ordered the fettuccine Alfredo with a side salad. I ordered the fettuccine carbonara. We both liked our food. read more

Delicious ! Very clean restaurant and the staff were really nice & patient with me on deciding what I wanted since it was my first time.

Not happy at all! I ordered the tortellini with "alfredo" sauce, mozzarella marinera and a Caesar salad. I know good Italian food and this is not it! The alfredo sauce tasted nothing like alfredo sauce, tasted like hot watered-down sour cream. Cesar dressing had a strong chemical taste, I don't what that was but never tasted anything like it. Lastly the marinera sauce was also sour and had an awkward vinegar taste. I was looking forward to the Alfredo sauce, and I even asked for extra, ruined my entire dish. Very disappointing. read more

The service was the best we have had in I don't know how long. The cashier was very welcoming, greeted us, and provided excellent service overall. He was never overbearing or fake and for that a very memorable employee. The food was delicious, not the best pasta in the world so nobody needs to start making comments on that, but the food was overall fresh, hot, and a pleasant meal. We got the brocoli chicken Alfredo, the chicken parmigiana, garlic knots, Caesar salad, and Greek salad . The Greek salad is the best Greek salad at any local restaurant. Seriously crispy, fresh, delicious dressing. My favorite. read more

Pasta taste was delicious. It was a white sauce. Chicken was done just right. Amount was more than I could eat. Garlic bread knots were tasty. (Thought I was getting the order free for signing up for offers, but was told it takes 24 hrs to activate ) Order was done as per the time posted. Love that they have Cheesecake Factory desserts! Mango lime was delicious! read more

This place is great! It's super affordable and they give big portions that can be made into 2 meals. My usuals are the lasagna or the sampler. The lasagna is super tasty and I like to ask for extra sauce and order it with 2 meatballs since I usually eat this for 2 meals. The sampler comes with lasagna, pasta Alfredo and chicken piccata. It's delicious and flavorful! They also give you fresh Parmesan if you ask for it. Food comes with garlic bread which is just okay. Even if I love garlic bread, I'm not here for that at presto. Service here is great and friendly. read more

Our kid received a coupon for a free meal after earning an award at school, so we visited Presto Pasta. For the price and quality, this is a great place. You can't compare the prices or flavors to a high-end or sit-down Italian restaurant. For fast-food, this place is great. The prices are right and its good food. We have had the chicken piccata and cajun chicken pasta and loved both. Our kids love the pesto chicken pizza and whatever is on the kids menu. But back to the reason we were there, this Presto Pasta is SO supportive of our valley. They host all kinds of restaurant nights in conjunction with our PTA, offer the PTAs coupons, and now apparently meals for kiddos who earn awards at school. I love supporting businesses who are so involved and caring with our community. read more

Presto Pasta is a good choice for fast italian food. I'm a fan of ordering online and their website was very user friendly; allowing for substitutions very easily. Our order was ready on time and packaged nicely. The pizza was enough for one person and was the winner of our order. The toppings were fresh and the crust was perfectly crispy. Not too heavy on the sauce and the amount of toppings was plenty. The pasta was good, just a little too heavy on the sauce for my liking. The portions on the pasta are enough for two people for sure! I also grabbed a slice of pumpkin cheesecake which was tasty and sweet. Don't let the slim slice fool you, it's rich and super satisfying. read more

I got the Chicken Picatta with the Garlic/Olive Oil/Parm sauce instead of Alfredo and it was bomb. I hope to come back again and try the sandwiches, salads, Tomato Bisque, pizza, and more pastas and sauces. It's cheaper than Olive Garden and with more authenticity to Italian Cuisine. I better make another trip to Santa Clarita this year to eat there. read more
