Wanted so badly to like this place since their flagship restaurant in Lexington was amazing bt I was incredibly let down. Had I have known I would be servicing myself and my date I would’ve not tipped so high before seating. This was the first I’ve actually experienced a concept like this dining in at an Italian restaurant where I would pay for the food first and wait for it to arrive. I tipped 25% and I only saw my server 1 time throughout our entire visit and that was when she brought out our food. We literally had to get everything ourselves of which I didn’t know about before I had paid. That included drinks, silverware and napkins all at the counter. Also the food was very mediocre I’d say… wouldn’t call it good or bad it was just very solid. If anything I would compare it to eating at an overpriced Fazoli’s. Like seriously my pasta for the Ragu alla bolognese was a little undercooked which I didn’t like and the breadstick of which my date has also agreed with me about tasted very funny and different to the breadsticks used at the flagship restaurant in Lexington. Out of everything the only dish I’d say I liked would be the fried lasagna because the meat sauce was delicious but everything else was incredibly ordinary. Sorry to say, but I don’t think I’ll be coming back anytime soon.

Absolutely love the Pasta Garage! My dear friend recently opened the new Louisville location, and it’s every bit as amazing as their Lexington spot. The food is outstanding – fresh, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. The service is friendly and attentive, the atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the wine selection is fantastic. And don’t skip dessert … it’s the perfect finish to a wonderful meal!

I also love that you can take a bit of Pasta Garage home – their fresh pasta, homemade sauces, and premade meals make dinner easy and delicious anytime. Can’t wait to go back!

Tried this place on a Saturday night and wow zero regrets. The atmosphere hits that perfect balance, fast casual with a cozy, upscale vibe that makes you want to stay awhile. The food was absolutely incredible. I had the carbonara, fried lasagna and the meatballs, and dishes were packed with flavor.

My old fashioned was spot-on, and the service? Exceptional from start to finish. This is the kind of place that works for everything—family dinners, date nights, or just treating yourself to a great meal. Highly recommend!

My friend and I tried Pasta Garage for the first time tonight (we knew about the Lexington location but hadn’t been there before) and we were not disappointed! It was a bit of a wait, but that was to be expected for a well-anticipated opening weekend, and we appreciated the fact that they let us know at the register the estimated wait time. I ordered an Aperol Spritz, which came out early and tasted excellent. Our pasta came out promptly and tasted delicious and fresh, and the cheesecake (made in-house) was amazing! Lesme personally stopped by our table to check in with us about our experience and we were very happy with it. The price was definitely not bad at all for such high quality food, and the restaurant is in a great location in Nulu. I will definitely be back soon and I highly recommend this restaurant!

Gave great info of their housemade pasta and their future endeavers!! His passion and excitement made me even more excited for our experience here. Anabelle is so sweet and attentive! She had made the dining experience wonderful as well as seamless. I wish I would have took pictures of the food. But I was so excited to dig in. I hope everyone’s experience is just as wonderful!

I will start by saying the atmosphere Of the place is beautiful and memorable… beyond that the food is absolutely bland, tasteless, and Appears to be preheated or reused ingredients, The noodles tasted days Old the seasoning was absolutely unbearably invisible taste wise, Service was understandable but could always use improvement thus people that work there are very understanding generous and thoughtful of your opinion expressed. They let me change my plate when something didn’t taste right and was more than happy to accommodate very much appreciated.

Pasta Garage is such a gem. The moment you walk in, you’re greeted with a warm, cozy atmosphere that feels both inviting and relaxing. The Italian dishes are fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care—every plate tastes like true comfort food.

The service is absolutely perfect. The staff is friendly, attentive, and quick to make sure you have everything you need without ever feeling rushed. It’s the kind of place where you can unwind, enjoy great conversation, and savor an amazing meal from start to finish.

Highly recommend Pasta Garage for anyone looking for delicious food, a comfortable vibe, and top-notch service.

It was a good experience, mostly thanks to the nice cashier. Ordering is super easy: you just tell the cashier what you want, grab your silverware and napkins, and then find a spot to sit. The Christmas decorations were really cute, and the bar looked awesome and was kept up well. The price was fair. Service was quick, and even though the food looked amazing, it tasted about a 7 out of 10. The place was clean, and I liked the open kitchen. But, the bathrooms could definitely use some cleaning up and a bit of a facelift. Even with all the good stuff, it just felt a little cold in there, not temperature-wise, just the vibe.

I was so excited to eat here but I don’t think I’ll be coming back unfortunately. Their service was friendly and quick, however the food was definitely not up to the standard of the prices. It was over $100 for 2 adults and a 6 year old to eat. It was $20 for a kids buttered noodles with 5 shrimp. All of the portion sizes were completely different. My mom got double the amount of salad and I did. My main issue was the chicken piccata. The chicken was so soggy, the noodles were just sitting in grease and oil, and all I could taste was burnt garlic. It overpowered everything. We don’t go out to eat often so I am really disappointed we spent so much money on this place.

I wanted to leave 5 stars but it was quite a long wait for the number of people dining. You order at the counter and seat yourself. We waited about 30 minutes. Not terrible, but took a while. We did get an appetizer, the fried lasagna which was good. I have the bolognese and it was wonderful. I will definitely be back.
