Reviews
Between two of us, we ordered: Pappardelle cacio e pepe w/ roasted peppers, mushrooms, pancetta; Fusilli bolognese w/meatballs, caramelized onions; Garlic sticks; Caesar salad; Tiramisu.
First, not sure what size portions some of these reviewers were expecting, but our portions were HUGE. I have enough pappardelle left over for another full-sized meal. The Caesar salad and tiramisu were totally shareable. If the salad is your entree, I don’t recommend sharing.
About the pasta: it’s perfectly cooked and has that satisfying chew you can only get with fresh made pasta. There are several pasta shapes available; we’ll definitely be trying them all. If you’re looking for a healthier alternative to traditional noodles, they also have zoodles.
The mushrooms, peppers and pancetta were the perfect combination for my cacio e pepe on pappardelle noods. The toppings were plentiful and the dish full of flavor.
The bolognese with meatballs and caramelized onions was bangin’ and would be the perfect combo on any noodle shape. I’m really picky about meatballs and loved these spheres of deliciousness!
The Caesar salad was FRESH. The lettuce was crisp and vibrant green. I have no idea what’s in the dressing, but it’s the best Caesar dressing I’ve ever had. There’s a unique flavor that has a hint of something familiar that I can’t quite place, but I’m in love. This will always be added to every pasta order going forward.
I feel sad for those that said they received hard garlic sticks. Ours were crispy on the outside and nice and fluffy in the middle. The marinara was really good, but not even necessary because the garlic sticks had enough flavor on their own. This will also be a must-have with every future order.
Last, but definitely not least was the tiramisu. Totally shareable, especially after all that pasta, but also so good that you might just want one all to yourself.
The value for what you get here is unmatchable. I’ll be ordering here at least once per week when I’m in town. Already looking forward to the next visit!
Check em out. CHEERS!
My friends weren’t high on their pastas either, except for one friend who swears by their linguine (edited: originally said fettuccine) and pesto.
Including a 20% tip, we paid around $12-$14 per person.
The negative: we ordered the family size Mac and cheese. This is a pasta place and it was not very good. The pasta was over cooked and the cheese sauce was somehow both bland and salty. The test for Mac and cheese should be: is it better than the frozen section at the supermarket? The answer here is no, it wasn’t. The bread crumbs that came with it nearly saved it, as they were tasty and a thoughtful touch, but the cheese and the pasta itself were ill prepared (pasta over cooked, cheese undercooked such that there were no crispy bits) and the flavor wasn’t great.
Will you hate their stuff? No. It’s all edible and some things, for the price, are actually quite nice.
