Food was very good, the meatball appetizer is very good, pizza Margherita, need more mozzarella cheese, the pasta made in the Parmesan wheel unfortunately was cold and made different than other places ( no flame, here) The server was very good, answered all ours questions and also changed our order after he already placed the order to the kitchen. Also he explained the system of the restaurant and what was out of stock. The atmosphere is nice clean decor and comfortable.
$24 + tax + tip for dry sauceless plain testing butternut squash walnut ravioli. The walnuts? 3 pieces sprinkled on. The butternut squash filling was decent but would’ve been better if they weren’t such misers about it. Why there was no outer sauce is beyond me. No additional salt/pepper/cheese offered for additional garnish. Portion size? Don’t even get me started, I’m not a big eater but what is essentially an expensive singular dish, to only get like 8 pieces of the thinnest ravioli was an absolute joke. It also did not taste fresh, rather as if it was poorly reheated with a microwave as it did seem cold in some parts. Also kept getting pushed to get more food on a very overpriced menu for a casual restaurant. No bread or anything for the table… but it’s available for an additional $10 :/. Save your money and go to Olive Garden, this is terrible pasta. Will not go back.
La Pizza & La Pasta is located on the third floor of Eataly, just off of their main grocery area. It is an extremely popular place for families, with a large dining area and some high top/bar seating. Note- because of the children and size of the restaurant, it can get extremely busy and loud so if that’s not what you’re looking for you may want to look elsewhere. That said, the food is absolutely fantastic. Highly would recommend making a reservation, although they do accept walk-ins, but you may be waiting for upwards of an hour. Maria was our waitress who was absolutely exceptional (thank you for making it such a wonderful experience!). To start, we got the fried calamari and zucchini with lemon and aïoli, which was great. The zucchini did get a little soggy by nature, but it was still delicious. Additionally we got one of their focaccia loaves which is topped with flaky sea salt and accompanied by amazing olive oil. Great for sharing (or not). We opted for pasta during our dinner, which is fantastic since they have both a fresh pasta section as well as Italian-imported dry pasta available. The maltaglaiti alla norcina was great, with the fresh spinach sheet pasta that is easily ripped. Topped with sausage, mushroom, and truffle butter, it’s a decadent dish. The tagliatelle al ragú toscano was a large portion of fresh pasta with pork and beef sauce, roasted squash, fried rosemary and white truffle (this is a MEAT sauce despite how it’s written). For a classic, the tagliatelle alla bolognese is a great dish. The lasagna Emiliana was great but a smaller portion than the heaping fresh pastas of the other dishes, but classic and delicious. Wines are a plenty and great selection since they’re pulling from their extensive Italian wine shop downstairs. Great food worth the loud environment, just know what you’re getting in to.
Wonderful service. Server was helpful in ordering and explaining the dishes. Good ambiance and dishes came fast. White truffle pasta was do flavorful. Chicken was well seasoned and not dry. The pizza crust was delicious and the toppings - finnochia salami, mushroom, basil, and mozzarella cheese were well balanced. I also like how it's open quite late
Benjamin was the best server I’ve ever had in my entire life. He was relatable, funny and very charming would recommend to anyone. He made my friend’s birthday the best birthday of all time he was cooking pasta at the table. He was going crazy thanks for the great experience Benjamin will come again. Food was good too.
