“ This is a take out only pasta shop that’s close to where I live, and it was my first time checking it out. I ordered the call me alfredo pasta and added grilled chicken (3 extra) and mushrooms (2 extra). There is an option for extra portion for an additional 2. The noodles were on the wider side of a fettuccine which I didn’t mind at all. You can tell the pasta is homemade. I liked how it wasn’t overly sauced and the grilled chicken and mushrooms were seasoned well and flavorful. It also didn’t take that long for it to be ready. Overall the pasta dish was delicious! Will def be back to try the other pastas. ”
“ Damn good pasta meal. When you need to satisfy a pasta craving but don’t want to pay 25 for a plate in a restaurant this place is the one. Had the Cacio De Pepe and it was great. Hit the spot and was so satisfying with its cheesy flavor. Cool place with 0 seating inside. ”
“ Came in here because it was around the corner from the hotel simply out of convenience. Great value. Nothing could have been better. Everyone was very friendly. Very casual. The pasta was as good as it possibly can be. Very obviously made from scratch. ”
“ A little hidden gem in Downtown, This place is amazing, it is just for knowledgeable people that understans how to appreciate great italian cuisine. So do not expect for a fancy, romantic, silverplate place, this is like been in your italian aunt's kitchen and she's cooking only for you, no place to dine in, you are "in the kitchen", watching how the pasta is made for you. The prices are really low for the quality of food that you get there, ok it is a take out only, but trust me, you will love your meal. It is hand made pasta made to order, and once you try it is like a burst of flavors and textures in your mouth. Team is very fast and friendly ready to to take care of you and give you the best they have. This place is a must, don't miss it!!! ”
“ Made my own: cavatelli with cacio e pepe with broccoli and mushrooms. Pasta was tender and tasty, sauce was excellent, veggies shouldn't be that expensive but they were well cooked and good proportions. Cute store, bit of a wait time with limited seating but that's the price for fresh pasta :) ”
“ Wow. Amazing fresh food made right in front of you. Great portions and price too. Highly recommend!! ”
“ Absolutely loved the experience at Call Me Pasta! Attention was fantastic, and the food was even better! We had the Spaghetti Pomodoro, Gnocchi Ragu, and Cavatelli Vodka. All were truly great tasting and perfectly sized portions. Pasta was al dente, sauce had great taste (only thing I would've changed is mixing the chicken with the sauce a little bit more)... Really couldn't ask for more. Definitely wouldn't hesitate coming back if we're in the area and wanting some great home made pasta. ”
“ I order from Call Me Pasta more often than my doctor would like... but I have little self-restraint when it comes to pasta this great. I’ve had nearly all sauce options, each consistent with off-the-charts flavor especially for a takeout restaurant! The staff is always friendly, accommodating, and quick. Definitely ask for a side of fresh focaccia, you won’t regret it! ”
