You will not regret coming here!

by talkischeap430

The best chicken fettuccine alfredo you will ever have. The chicken is extremely tender and juicy. They serve warm crispy rolls with butter and toast with fresh tomatoes and herbs. I've been coming to this place since I was a kid and the quality hasn't changes a bit. Not to mention the price. I come here often with my boyfriend and we both get the chicken alla fettuccine alfredo. Only $40! I haven't tried any of their desserts yet but they bring out a tray of their selections and they look quite decadent!

  • Pros: Amazing Food

Great food for good price

by GPAN

Moved couple of years ago to the neighborhood and I 've been going to Pasta Lovers once a week. Great quality, generous portions, and the best part is the price. One of my favorite, clams origanata, the black linguiny with baby shrimp, and veal sorentino. One of the pros is the parking lot attendant.

  • Pros: Great Value
  • Cons: Decor updated

Great food without the wait!

by cheryl5209

We started going to Pasta Lovers about a year ago because we were looking for a place that had good food and parking. We had driven past the place a few times, but never went because it looked like a diner. We went on a Friday night and we were pleasantly surprised. The bread is warm, crusty and delicious. They give you complementary bruschetta (which I love). We don't typically get appetizers (don't really need it with the bread and bruschetta). I normally order one of the specials and my fiance normally orders one of their shrimp dishes. We have always been happy with the quality, taste and portions here. With the specials we get a free dessert (the mousse cake is amazing). We love that we don't have to wait for a table. You cannot go in looking for a classic, romantic italian place. It was a diner at one point and the furniture still suggests that it was. BUT....to have a place that is consistently good, reasonably priced with parking cannot be passed up.

  • Pros: Parking, reasonably priced, food always very good
  • Cons: sometimes the wait for food can be long (but they do appease you with free bruschetta)

by cat1123

Okay. So me and my fiancee been going to pasta lovers quite a few times. At first i loved it, especially me being greek i luv me myself some pasta.... but yesterday when i got home from work we just thought about going and did around 8 pm.. First we get there everything is okay. Then i ordered fried calamari now me being greek I know about calamari you would think they would fully cook them no wrong it was white not even close to a brown color i didnt eat it didnt want to get food posioning, also the guy next to us had the same problem with his calamari and he returned it back as well, then me and my fiancee order the easiest meal chicken cutlet parmigiane with penne for one there was like 8 pieces of penne lol and my chicken tasted tastless and burned.. the chicken was black and the mozzarella cheese must of been lite cause it tasted horrible.. i was so frustrated to pay 60 dollars for a disgusting meal.. All i have to say they need to fire there chef. I will neva go back what a shame so DISAPPOINTED in PASTA LOVERS... just wanted to share my bad experience with you guys and to know what ur gonna get by going there good luck...bye...

  • Pros: nice area but thats it
  • Cons: food was burned and tasteless what a disappointment... Horrible.....

Good Italian Food

by foodied

Ok so...I have been going to Pasta Lovers for quite some time and it's great. Anyone that comes to visit me from out of town I make sure they have dinner here. Actually my husband and I have friend who calls us and won't stop talking about the Frutti di mari dish (seafood). As soon as you sit down they serve your fresh bruschetta. It's so good I wish I could make it a meal sometimes. Then the servers come around with fresh hot bread and butter. The staff is almost always friendly and eager to serve you. They have an inexpensive pre fix menu that I love that includes soup or salad, entree, coffee and desert. They let you choose from all the deserts that they have and they?re really good. I highly recommend having the chicken fettuccini alfredo, trust me it's nothing like you have had before, it is delicious. Please go visit them, give them a chance. You will not be disappointed........actually I'm hungry.

  • Pros: Food,Parking lot, drinks
  • Cons: Ever changing staff
