Been in NY twice. But first time we found PASTA LOVERS. If we will come back to Manhattan PASTA LOVERS will be our first restaurant. We love it! Kind regards from northern Germany.

Excellent Experience at Pasta Lovers!

by jopap12 at Citysearch

I work in the area and just recently found this gem. I have been going for lunch 2-3 times a week for about 3 months now and have never had a bad experience. The food could not be any better and the staff could not be any more pleasant and helpful. They also have a nice Happy Hour going every day. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone working in the area or going to Radio City or Rockefeller Center.

Not the same

by Love2eat11210 at Citysearch

When I first visited Pasta Lovers, it was went it was a small place, child friendly. The table covers where made out of paper and they gave you crayons to draw on the table cover. My has it changed!! My first experience there was the BEST. The food way breath taking, the service was excellent and the environment was calm and relaxing. Now it turned into a more more mature and sophisticated dining place. I think the scenery there is beautiful for a night out in town. The food I find is still good; not what it used to be; however it is still worth the trip. Service down graded, but I believe that is because the place has become so popular. I recommend that you visit Pasta Lovers. You won't regret it.

• Pros: Love the seafood special pasta
• Cons: Its not the same service as before

Terrible Customer Service

by WPKK19 at Citysearch

I went to Pasta Lovers on a Sunday night with 3 girlfriends for dinner. The food was fairly good, nothing special. After we got our dinner, our waiter never came back to the table. He never offered us coffee or dessert. It took us 30 minutes to track him down for our check. When we got the bill, they had added gratuity - for a party of 4 - even though the front of the menu clearly states that it's added for parties of 6 or more. We asked for the manager, who was incredibly rude. She said that "this is what they do for the holidays." We explained that we were disappointed in the service and were not in agreement with the gratuity. She stood there and stared at us. She finally said that she'd "have to see, because they can't void it." She never apologized for the poor service, never attempted to make any save. She also never returned to the table; the waiter brought back the adjusted bill. I'll never recommend this place.

• Pros: decent food
• Cons: horrible service

Good Food, No Customer Loyalty

by tiro at Citysearch

I eat here quite often, I work nearby and have had numerous business lunches, work anniversaries, and employee birthday luncheons. Not once, never have the manager or the waiters recognized me as a frquent good customer. I eat in many restaurants in NYC, and a good Manager/owner will recognize my loyalty as a customer and send over a free dessert, or a drink, or a sampler etc... This restaurant sees the Corporate Card and all it is, is Cha ching!!! They are out only for the almighty buck. and please, leave the cheese on the table! Only eat here if its convenient, the food is your standard Italian Fare.

• Pros: Good food ,Good portions
• Cons: cheap with the grated cheese!
