    The freshest pasta around, but it is pricey. Seating is in an open area of the market so there’s a lot of movement and noise. The service is excellent, server was very knowledgeable and friendly.

    I recently had the pleasure of dining at Il Pastaio and I must say, it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. The food was nothing short of spectacular—every dish was perfectly executed with authentic Italian flavors that transported me straight to Italy. From the creamy burrata appetizer to the rich, velvety pasta dishes and the perfectly cooked main courses, everything was prepared with care and attention to detail. The service was equally impressive. The staff was warm, attentive, and knowledgeable, always ensuring that our glasses were filled and that we had everything we needed without ever feeling rushed. They were also happy to provide recommendations and explain the menu, which made the experience even more enjoyabl

    We had a fantastic lunch amongst our shopping today. Our waiter, the food, and the ambience were absolutely perfect. I highly recommend you book a lunch here during the holiday season for shopping. It is perfect.

    The service was good. The restaurant was a bit small. The portions were small for the price we paid. For example, For the burrata, they gave one piece of toast to three people, and then they charged for an additional piece of beard.
