It was a beautiful sunny day up in the mountains in Boulder and the outdoor deck was a perfect place for me to have a drink and a nice salad with a piece of broiled salmon. The wait staff are superb. They’re very kind. Most people in Boulder are just super cool. I highly recommend this place.

Pasta Jay’s is a true Boulder staple and a place you absolutely HAVE to try if you’re in town. The atmosphere is warm and lively, the staff is fantastic, and the food is consistently incredible. You cannot leave without trying the famous Pasta Jay’s sauce! It’s the kind of thing you start craving the minute you finish and always need more! Authentic Italian comfort food done to perfection! This incredible place has been a local favorite for years for a reaosn! Do yourself a favor and go!

My girlfriend and I recently visited Boulder, and a family member suggested we try Pasta Jay’s on Pearl Street. The food was outstanding, and I especially recommend the mussels appetizer. The atmosphere was lively, and the ambiance was terrific.
We went over Labor Day weekend, so it was busy, but the staff remained attentive, friendly, and efficient. The prices were also very reasonable.
Honestly, it was some of the best Italian food I have ever had outside of Italy. Highly recommended!

Ethan and Jay jr. are the best!! They’re so friendly and welcoming, the atmosphere is so fun and the food is incredible! You can’t go wrong on a night here with your friends and family, where the wine keeps flowing and the food always impresses the palate. My favorite restaurant by far in Boulder and all of Colorado.

Super cute restaurant! Was really busy but staff brought everything in time. Super delicious pastas and pizza but the garlic bread was the best for sure!

Jackie the catering Manager @ Pasta Jays is amazing ! and I would highly recommend her to take care of your celebration.
The food was excellent, the service is incredible, and she consistently goes above and beyond on every detail. She has supported us both personally and professionally for years from holiday celebrations, retirement parties, company events, you name it.
She’s handled everything from small gatherings to events with more than 150 guests, and every single time she delivers without missing a beat. For our most recent holiday celebration 12/8/2025 the headcount kept growing and I was worried about pulling it all together. Jackie didn’t flinch. She took care of the kids, the adults, and everything in between like it was nothing.
Her staff is just as impressive helpful, attentive, and genuinely invested in providing top-tier service….and the food… what can I say? Excellent in every way, every time.
I highly recommend Jackie and Pasta Jay’s Catering for any event, big or small. Service, Price, Menu Selection all are a 5 STAR.
