Great place for delicious and very fresh food! We had a Zesty bowl with falafel and fresh pasta with truffleoil, brussels and califlower - pasta was sooo good! We enjoyed it a lot! Definitely recommend!

I visited on Saturday for the first time and had a great experience! I would say that the food is on the pricier side, but I loved my choices! I got the pasta with pesto and chicken which was really good! My two friends also got one of their bowls and pasta! The pasta was really creamy, something which made it unique! They had great lemonade, not too much of a fan of their mango lemonade! Cute and aesthetic atmosphere!

I admittedly came in with high expectations and they were.. somewhat met. I ordered a pasta with chicken and mushrooms, another pasta, and a salad. my first pasta came out without the chicken so I had to return it and the staff was quick enough about fixing the error but not ideal for a first impression. I expect proper service for the price you pay for a little bowl of pasta that isn’t at a nice sit down restaurant. I will say it’s busy and you can tell others are happy but have accepted that this is good but slightly over priced laid back casual pasta - not a wine & dine.

The food was quite delicious. There was an extra charge for each additional item added to the pasta (sauce, protein, cheese, etc.). While the portion size was a bit small, the price seemed a little high. The staff members were friendly. The service was average, as you order at a kiosk, find a table, and the food is delivered, which is not quite the same as a full-service restaurant. I wouldn't mind returning but it would not be my 1st choice if you're on a budget.

Not what I expected. Pasta was dry and plain. Drinks were self serving as well as condiments and napkins. The plates… were plastic and so were the forks!!! On top of everything, the pasta that was on TikTok for $10 supposedly with one topping included is a lie . Since you have to pay extra for Parmesan, extra for pesto, extra for chicken, extra for pepper flakes…seriously!!! We are positively not going back!!! For That price, there are many other places

I tried pasta viva with mushroom and it was creamy ,fresh and tasty but I think it can be better by adding some more spices. The food portion of was small I think considering the portion size and ingredients used the price is high.

I had the cheese experience – and WOW. They make the pasta fresh in-house and then toss it right in a giant cheese wheel to create the Alfredo sauce. It’s creamy, rich, and unbelievably flavorful. You can literally taste the quality and love in every bite. The presentation alone is a show, but the flavor? Out of this world. If you’re a fan of Alfredo or just want a next-level pasta moment, this place is a MUST. I’m already planning my next visit. Highly recommend – 10/10 experience!

Fun casual dining experience with pasta that is fresh and flavorful. Loved watching the pasta go into the cheese wheel. Order at the counter and they bring to your table. Food came out quick and was hot and delicious. Many choices of pasta entrees to choose from with the base being fettuccine with Alfredo. Noodles were light and good portions. They have many other Mediterranean items, bowls and salads but only tried the pasta this time.
