What Our Customers Say
I enjoy shopping at the North Market and my favorite vendor is Pastaria. The food has always been way beyond good. The Tomato Alfredo is my favorite dish at the moment but that will likely change the next time I go for lunch! So much food to choose from and not enough time!"
--Emily Spirito
I work downtown so it’s perfect for lunch and I can also stop after work and get an order to take home. My wife really loves when I bring in Pastaria!"
--John Samuels
I love going back to places that always remember my name and Don Ziliak not only remembers my name, he also remembers my favorite dish! That is awesome!"
--Bill Robinson
My family loves to come down and pick out our dinner. The food is excellent and we go there three times a month"
