Basta Pasteria: Where homemade pasta meets fast-casual dining.
Basta Pasteria is a family-owned business committed to delivering high-quality, delicious pasta dishes in a relaxed and inviting atmosphe…
The pasta was garlicky but so good. It is very expensive for a strip mall type dining but the quality is high. I wish they had more options to add your choice of protein and had a few more upscale ingredients to go with this price point. Like this pasta would be perfection with pine nuts!

The PAPPARDELLE GENOVESE - Flavorful, tender beef, rich sauce, basil was a nice touch. 8.9 out of 10.
The TIRAMISÚ. looks perfectly layered (coffee/chocolate dusting on top, then mascarpone, soaked lady finger cookies, mascarpone, crust (another layer of soaked ladyfinger cookies?) Nice balance between the cake/pudding mouthfeels with a nice punch of coffee on the back of the palette. 10 out of 10.

I'd personally rate this place a 4.7 out of 5 but it only allows me to select 4 or 5 stars.
I'm not Dave Portnoy by any stretch of the imagination, but I have a feel for how he'd rate things after seeing hundreds of his videos.
The MARGHERITA PIZZA - Looked like a 12" sized pizza. Good undercarriage, nicely sauced and cheesed. Major flop when held, hardly any crisp. Very flavorful though. I liked it personally. Dave would probably rate it a 7.5, I'd give it a 7.9.
The PAPPARDELLE BOLOGNESE - Nicely sauced, noodles are al dente. Good flavor, similar flavor profile sauce to what was on the Margherita pizza. I'd give it an 8.1.
It's a little pricey, I paid $26 for the pasta and $12 for the pizza, but it's good. Thank you!

I have never eaten pasta as fresh and flavorful as Basta Pasteria provides. Delicious.
