"My wife and I were in town and saw this place, so we gave it a try. We ordered curb side pickup. No spots were available on the street so I ended up having to pay for city parking. We both got the Pistachio Ravioli. I also got a Small Little Gem ChoppedSalad. Salad was fantastic. Like an Italian take on a Greek salad: fetta cheese, chickpeas, olives. Wasn't a huge fan of thedressing personally but it worked and I loved it. The ravioli however ... Was rubbery, greasy, and small in size. (Seepicture). Tasted like it had been cooking for an hour or something. Taste itself was okay beyond the sensation of chewing aneraser; however my wife did not like the taste at all. My wife got chicken added to her dish and it was also dried out andrubbery. I like the creativity of a pistachio ravioli however the execution....could use a little work."

Great food! Pasta was great and so was the risotto balls. Bread was great too. All around great experience.

The food was fantastic, and the service was excellent! My only suggestion is that I would love to see more options for meat and vegetables for the pasta and pizza dishes.

Absolutely lovely experience. Delicious pasta and pizza. Great wine selection. Plus our waitress was amazing! We had our toddler with us and she knew exactly how to interact with her and made sure we are doing well. Fantastic establishment! View menu

My husband and I shared the Allan Pizza and Tagliatelle, and both were fantastic! The atmosphere was wonderful, and we really enjoyed the music—they played the perfect tunes for New Year's Eve. The staff was very friendly and professional too!

Wonderful restaurant! I was in St. Louis for a few days to visit my son, and this was one of my favorite restaurants. The food is delicious and it has a lovely atmosphere. Great service despite the fact that it was heaving. We made a reservation and wewere glad we did, as the only empty table was saved for us. And it was a Monday. You know a place is good when it’s packedon a Monday. Also has the best tiramisu.

Pastaria is an excellent Italian restaurant all-around. Their outside seating is nice and they've cleared out space in their usually packed interior for COVID. All the staff were very friendly as well. The food was delicious. We started with the Little Gem Chopped Salad which had a great variety of ingredients that all complimented each other perfectly. For the main course we had the Chitarra al Pomodoro and Tagliatelle Bolognese. Both were full of flavor and phenomenal. For desert we had the Carmalized Pinenut and Panna cotta gelato. So good! Will totally come here again next time I'm in St. Louis.

In short I would not recommend this place. After seeing the reviews I though this place would be great, but it was anything but. The drinks are well made with good flavors. The appetizer of ricotta balls was good only because they came with sauce. The pastawas undercooked even for al dente. The gelato was great, and only saving grace for the dinner. The birthday cake dessert washorrible and uneditable. The frosting was hard and full of sugar and cake was over sweetened and seemed old. To recap the foodwas nothing special, the price was too much. Definitely not a spot that I would say one most try while in town.
