I’m really surprised at some of the reviews I’m seeing here. I just had an incredible experience from Pronto via delivery.

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!

First-time in. We all cleaned our bowls (boxes). Alfredo was good and the sausage was sweet and spicy. The price gave me a little surprise. But the food quality was good and the service was great and friendly.
Check em out. CHEERS!

The best fresh pasta I have had, many different styles. Everything I have had here is delicious. Great spot for casual dining or to go. Wonderful for families or solo dinners. Highly recommend if you are near the Corner or getting delivery in Charlottesville. I make a special trip to go to the Corner just for this pasta, I cannot speak highly enough about the quality of the food! It is make your own or you can ask the people inside their favorites, I have yet to get a combination I don’t like. Highly suggest the Alfredo with shrimp or chicken and bacon, yum!

Service was fine and texture of the homemade noodles were good, but the Mac and cheese was pretty much a soup (edit: I guess there was a communication error. The response below says I requested extra sauce, but I don’t remember saying so).

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.

DELICIOUS! My company recently had Pronto cater a small holiday party. I was pleasantly surprised with the amount of food we each received! Portion size was great. Worth 5 stars! Another reason I’m giving 5 stars … they offer ZOODLES! I don’t eat pasta and was beyond thrilled they had an option for me! Great flavors, great portions, great service. Will definitely be a repeat customer!!

First, the positive: the prices are fair and the cookies are good. Also, they are pretty fast with delivery, which was nice. Breadsticks were totally acceptable, as was the marinara.

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.

I had such a wonderful time at Pronto Pasta. I tried the Orecchiette pasta with Pesto and fresh tomatoes. The pesto tasted so fresh and the tomatoes were a pleasant addition of just enough sweetness. The cheese on to is such a nice aspect. I mixed mine in to add a little more creamy taste. Yum!

Would give this 0 stars, but the staff is nice and friendly, and for that they deserve a couple stars. The food is just not great 🙁 I’ve dined here on two occasions. The first, my pasta was bland and undercooked. The sauce was just eh. The second time, my girlfriend and I both got pasta that was SO SALTY we couldn’t eat more than a few bites. Even the cookies were subpar. Overall, overpriced and underwhelming. Really wish I didn’t regret the money I spent here 🙁

I’ve been 3 times and gotten the same thing each time; the gnocchi sardi with pesto. It’s been delicious every time and the staff are very friendly and happy to help explain the menu if you have questions. Presto is slowly becoming a favorite of mine, definitely worth checking out!

The breadsticks were hard as a rock, and the marinara sauce which came with the breadsticks tasted awful. The buffalo mac n cheese was okay. My girlfriend took two bites of the spaghetti bolognese and could not finish it. They had just opened the place when we ate there, so perhaps it has improved by the time you read this review.
