10/10 if youre a business looking to cater, they accommodated every request I had and arrived 10 minutes early! Our facility caters every Friday, so we have had our fair share of let downs, but not with Pastalini, the food was hot, tasty and well presented. Theyre Covid Safe and gave me everything individualized. give them a call, ask for Jordan!
Pastalini is a magical place. Its like Chipotle but instead of Mexican food, its freshly made pasta dishes. All the staff are super friendly and the food is delicious. A must try in the Miramar area.
This place is so great. The pasta was delicious, and everything was made in store, which makes it all fresh. The employees were very kind and the place was super clean. They offer a wide variety of options as well as complimentary bread, free refills, etc. Definitely one of my new favourite places.
Great pasta and bread knots. The calzones also look amazing but I love the pasta so much that I havent tried them yet, honestly. :)I get the pesto sauce (Ive tried some of the others and you really cant go wrong with ANY of them, they are all so good). You get 3 toppings and bread knots with every order, so I get the artichoke, corn mix, and black olives. Then you get to pick seasonings (salt, pepper, garlic, oregano, etc.) and they make the pasta fresh in front of you.Great alternative to sandwich shops with the same set-up - - sort of a build your own Italian dish. I work in Mira Mesa and go here regularly for lunch. Id recommend this place to anyone looking for a quick but delicious Italian meal.
Nothing to go crazy over just some decent Italian cuisine. We had calzones the smaller size was plenty for one person, had some weird sauces to go with it but overall it want bad food
Super great!!! Great food, great service. What a great idea to build your own pasta. Love it!!!
Food smells and taste great! A good place to go if youre in a Pizza Hit rut! Fresh salads and they prepare your food right in front of you at the counter! It also has outdoor dining during this pandemic.
This place has been one of my favorites on Miramar Rd for awhile now my brother James turned me on to this place and I have been stopping in every chance I get. I also got to take my little family to eat here. But I must say the food is really good and the ones that work there are very kind I had the pleasure to enjoy a meal there yesterday and I have to give thanks to Mr. Javier for being kind and showing his customers respect. Also there way a younger girl that help me out as well but I didnt get here name. She really didnt talk much but maybe she was tired I know I was after coming in after a long day.But I must say this is a good place to go I wish my bro was there but Im sure he will stop in today. Well much Blessings to the square
This place was much better than I expected. Love the sausage too. Will return.
Very Tasty Pasta! Great selection! Friendly staff. Reasonable prices! Highly recommend
The place smelled fantastic, but the food was only the okayest. The service was great and fast, and the price was decent. My boyfriend ordered made to order pasta, and I ordered a Greek salad. The pasta was okay, but the Greek salad with chicken was a huge disappointment. The “Greek” salad dressing tasted like straight lemon juice. I’d recommend adding some oil (and maybe some herbs) to balance that out and calling it what it is (lemon and oil) versus Greek dressing. The pre-cooked cubed chicken wasn’t my favorite, but it suits their business model and fast service. I am a bread lover, so I was happy to get free bread on the side, but it didn’t have any flavor. In the future, I might give them another shot if I was craving something simple like spaghetti with marinara and cheese.
Slept on restaurant. Good variety of pastas and sauces so you can mix and match and build your own dish.
We ordered an 18 inch pepperoni pizza as well as a side of pasta. The Ford wasd very good. If you want something a little more tasteful than Dominos, Pizza Hut or any of those other fast pizza shops, come here.
Great customized pasta dishes. Like Subway for pasta, only waaaaay better. They have a large selection of pastas, toppings, tasty sauces, and meats to add. The toppings are all good and fresh, but the portion sizes could be a little more for the price. However all in all, they have good quality ingredients and fast, friendly service. Update: Got the spinach linguini with roasted peppers, artichoke hearts, and mushrooms, and added calamari. Also got the whole wheat fusilli, with artichoke hearts, fresh tomatoes, and mushrooms, and added calamari. We usually get shrimp, but this time decided to try the calamari. Big mistake, minus one star. The calamari was extremely salty; you only tasted salt when you bit into it. We will never order the calamari again. Well go back to ordering shrimp from now on. The pasta and veggie toppings were very tasty as usual.
Food was great and came out quick. The front of house was great. We will be back again.
Always great to have something to eat from these guys. They have all the pasta option you can ever ask. If you want to go vegetarian, try spinach bowl.
One of the best pasta places around! They cook it in front of you, and everything is fresh. Large portions too.Also they have gluten free pasta
Ranch is disgusting. Marinara sauce too watery. Like watered pressed tomatoes. Not enough thickness to it (then why call it a sauce?) pasta was salty, pizza was salty. Broccoli tasted bad and left a horrible aftertaste. Calzone not well seasoned, had no taste. Sticky seating. Table is sticky. Me and gf walking out feeling like barfing. Paid $45, wasn’t worth it. Was up sold without being told of the portion sizes so we over ordered. No remorse, just hungry for profit. But it didn’t taste good. Won’t come back.
If you need any kind of a pasta fix... This the joint. Everything is good. I just wish there was down in the South Bay. Definitely a must
Like the looks and the set up of this place. The price point is great as well, as well as how much food you actually get for the price is amazing. It can get quite busy at times though. So be prepared for a short wait. Worth it though!!
Love it!!! I shared the calzone and the baked rigatoni with pepperoni. Really good!!Already want to come back and try the pasta.
Came here with my wife. I ordered rigatoni pasta with vodka sauce, calamari, mushrooms, onions, and mozzarella. My wife got the angel hair pasta with the meat sauce, shrimp, and mozzarella. We both thought both pastas were a little bland, not enough flavor; it’s probably due to the fact that they throw everything into a heated pan before serving it. If we come here again I will probably ask for extra sauce. Overall the food and the service is ok.
Great food!! Love that I can make a custom pasta. It was my first time, Ill definitely be back again.
It was my 1st time there it was OK bits K but not something I would go back to
The food was still hot and freshly made!
Soooooo goooood..
This place will fill the pasta-shaped void in your heart! Just finished eating here and our expectations were so majorly exceeded that I had to write this review before we’d walked 20 feet from the restaurant. You get to choose your pasta, sauce, toppings, and it’s all sautéed for you into a piping hot bowl of nom. There’s even a gluten free rice pasta! Portions are huge—we both got smalls and had half leftover. We tried the whole-wheat fusili (made from scratch on the premises) with the homemade pomegranate marinara (wow, just wow—seriously you have to try this sauce—it’s magical and not weirdly sweet at all). We also tried the gluten free rice linguine—surprisingly good for a rice pasta. Pasta comes with tender little garlic rolls (yum) and we tried a side salad too. Big salad for the price and it was great, although the vinaigrette was a little heavy on the vinegar for my taste. Also want to give the girls that were working a major shoutout—they were awesome and super helpful and patient, answered all our questions, and gave us free samples of sauces! I’m sorry I forgot to ask you your names while we were there and then felt too weird about it to run back in and ask, but hopefully you know who you are Thursday-night-pasta-goddesses—you rock. Thanks for an awesome experience we’ll be back!
Theres so much to say about this place... and Im afraid to say anything because I dont want everybody to know about it! The room is lovely, and I think the next time we go, well try to sit at the back table.
WOW!!! J cant say enough about this restaurant and the food that they serve to our troops and the ones that fight for us. This place needs to know that you guys are making a difference in lifes and putting smiles on the faces of so many. From the moment j walk in this place j felt the love 💘 ❤ 💕 💗 ♥ 💛 from the team and members that work at this place. Do you guys know that . You are changing lifes around just by the smiles and the food that you guys serve. I had the pleasure eating at this place with my kids, brother and lady and let me tell you we all walked out of there with smiles so thank so much for doing what u do and I hope that God raises this place up and also for the ones that fight for us and put there self on the line.I will definitely keep coming back so thank from my family 👪 ❤ 🙏 💕 💓 💛 to yours
One of my new favorite places for lunch since I started working in Miramar. I haven’t tried a dish that I haven’t loved yet. Don’t think I will either. A+
Food was good, and the staff was nice, however they seemed very disorganized (lots of running around behind the counter). Indoors is setup for a few large parties, so if its just 2 or 3 people you end up taking a huge booth.
Always good food. Try to order ahead. Sometimes there is a wait.
Get Your Pastalini On!Have your special dish of pasta made to order right in front of you! Pick the large; is only a few cents more and add what you love to your meal, and dont forget the garlic! Theres vegetables, meats, and all kinds of goodies to add to your meal, then itll be cooked right in front of you! The employees are very attentive, the price is light on the pocketbook, and its the only one in San Diego.Its close to Miramar military base so youll hear the planes rumbling sometimes and dont worry its in a strip mall, so theres plenty of parking and outdoor seating. Enjoy.
Personal pizza is my favorite and the perfect size.Delicious food and nice staff always sweet.Keep going, thank you for staying open.
Pasta was a bit too soft but tasted good. Liked being able to choose what I wanted in the pasta and the portion was big. There’s a few tables outside to eat as well. Service was quick. From order to finish was less than 5 minutes.
This place is great! The pasta is always cooked perfectly and tastes fresh. Ive tried several of their dishes now and I havent had any complaints yet and their online ordering system is easy to use.
They were super nice. Cute place. Sadly, the food isn’t actually that good. Their sauces were runny and the dish lacked flavor overall. The sausage was really good tho. I was pretty disappointed with it my food. And so were my three friends and we all ordered different pasta dishes.
Very good pasta. Even their pasta is home made. Lots of topping options. I like the build-it-yourself format, it allows for more freedom of choice.
Always great.
Very good, friendly, and attentive service. The food options and combinations allow me to make a great dish that was very tasty. Competitive prices. If you are looking for some easy pastas this is a great place to stop by. Would recommend for lunch, very casual place.
If you love pasta, pizza, and calzones... and love to customize it? this sure is the spot, and they cook it in front of you
I liked it but mind your biz
Make your own pasta.
First time here pretty good quick service nice people food is good
Best Italian food Ive had in a long time and the prices are great! Staff is friendly and food is made fresh to order. Their setup is done in an assembly line/pick & choose, buffet style, similar to Subway or Panda Express so your meal is tailored specifically to your taste. Brilliant, innovative, and delicious!
They have gluten free options!!!!! Enough said! Food was really yummy
A really nice surprise with great pasta and salad dishes! Quick stop but definitely delicious!
Extremely yummy, cant beat personalized pasta!! and the little breads are to die for.
The food is absolutely amazing 👏
Phenomenal place for your Italian pasta dishes. Have to try the 3 meat pasta dish, its delicious.
Pastalini is awesome ! One of my favorite restaurants in the Miramar area !! Seriously, they have great food and the service excellent as well !
Great 👍 food. Great 👍 Quality. All of the ingredients are fresh and the pasta is made in-house. You can order exactly 💯 what you want.
I actually loved the dishes and customer service, good location next to my residence. The cashiers are always very nice. Will come back again.
My daughters favorite San Diego restaurant. Its good. You can customize your meal. Best deal is on the large, and youll have leftovers for tomorrow. Baked dinners and salads are just as good as the pasta, but the build - your - own pasta dinner is definitely our favorite. Staff is always very nice and helpful.
It is a cool concept. Pasta made in a subway style. I had chicken Alfredo with broccoli and spinach. I would say the price was okay but the pasta wasnt very good, specifically the Alfredo sauce. I went with a group of people who all had different things and they enjoyed their food...so maybe its just the Alfredo that isnt very good.
Tasted like Italian noodles
Visited on a Saturday night. Very friendly and helpful staff, happy to walk you through the tons of ordering options. Everything is made fresh, right in front of you. Reasonable prices, considering the generous size of the portions. Well definitely be back to try a different dish!
Their pasta is delicious but they put yellowing/browning broccoli in my pasta which made it taste funky. Im willing to give them another shot, but Ill be skipping on the veggies next time. Their bread is addictive.
Pastalini is a restraunt with a really high ceiling for great flavors! The choices put in front of you can be great. I made the tortellini with vodka sauce, red onions, mushrooms, feta, a big scoop of red pepper flakes, oregano, pepper, and half a spoon of garlic. It was outstanding! I would have been very satisfied receiving this same dish in Little Italy for $20+ a plate. But, as satisfied as I was this time, Ive also had some lackluster experiences trying some of my wifes pasta concoctions here. The sauces are definitely not all fantastic. I recommend the vodka sauce, and advise you to tread lightly otherwise.
Their food is really good but they need to figure out how to be a takeout place. Their online ordering system does not get the attention of the staff and most orders take 20 minutes to produce. Too long. Excellent food though if you don’t mind the wait.
My boss recommended this place. Now, I will recommend it as well. For
Great place for a reasonably priced, fast and tasty plate of pasta. Many types of pasta, sauces and toppings to choose from, custom made and prepared fast.Ordered rigatoni with half Alfredo, half marina sauce and added artichoke hearts, red peppers, sub dried tomatoes, garlic and oregano. Definitely recommend!
The concept of make your own pasta seemed interesting but the food wasnt as exciting. The Alfredo sauce was a little watery. The mushrooms a little dry.. the basil spaghetti in itself was good though. I had basil spaghetti in Alfredo sauce with mushrooms and bell pepper.
Can not go wrong with anything at this place! Amazing food, great service. I come to this place a few times a month.
Soo good! I got the small size for pasta and it is the perfect serving size for me! I got basil spaghetti, pesto sauce, mozzarella cheese, and spinach😍 Also they have 10 inch pizzas that start at 6$!! Cheap and authentic-they make their own pasta!
Its okay.
Glad I tried this place! It was clean and staff were welcoming. Food was even better! The pasta is made in house and you can taste the quality. There were an abundance of choices. I had pasta, but would definitely come back again to try the calzone and/or pizza. The pictures of my dining experience are on the locations Google Maps site. I would 10/10 recommend this place!! The dishes are big and filling and for
Delicious 😋
Hey all - wanted to share something exciting about pasatlini! They have BAGELS!!!!! Amazing, yummy, chewy, New York style bagels made fresh EVERY morning. if you live in the area you gotta stop by . . .if you dont live in the area then you HAVE to go out of your way. Yes they are THAT good!
Delicious food at reasonable prices. Big servings & great salads. You pick your pasta & all ingredients & same with the salad. Highly recommended. Wish we had one close by.
For a place that specializes in pasta, the pasta was very average. The meatballs were rubbery. I tried the marinara and the alfredo sauce. Both very average.
Pasta is surprisingly tasty. I recommend the bakeed pasta #4
Great place for lunch! Pastalini is one of my favorite lunch spots in the area, everything is good. My usually is the basil spaghetti with marinara sauce/w. Chicken. I also add fresh tomatoes and zucchini...Healthy and delicious!
My wife and I swing in here about once a month. They are an awesome spot for early dinner or lunch. Excellent quality food.
Good pasta....but it needs to be heated up a little more and they need a soda machine for their dine in customers.
Delicious pizza and calzone! Highly recommend. Everything can be customized!
Delicious fresh pasta, Subway-style pick your own toppings, great value, large portions.
Calzone is awesome 👌
I love the pasta here. You get to select the type of pasta, the sauce, protien, and toppings. Then they cook it front of you, and then its ready to eat. I really love the sweet tea, it is not just sweetened, but is flavored as well. The price is good too, my wife, my two year old (barely eats anything) my one year old (eats everything, and in more quantities than my two year old) can get fed with leftovers for the low $20s. I have eaten here three times since discovering it last week. I highly recommend this place if youre in the mood for pasta.
The pasta Alfredo with mushrooms was excellent! I wish I had taken a photo to share.
A great pasta place for a custom-made pasta flavors. Their calzones are also the best Ive had in San Diego.
Staff are excellent and everything was delicious!! Totally recommend the BAKED PASTA!
Excellent fresh made pasta and you order the ingredients...unique fast casual pasta restaurant.
Ive recently discovered this awesome place! Great, clean/healthy pasta at a great price. The employees are really welcoming and nice which is really essential to a good dining experience :) Pastalini is one of my new favorite places to eat! Also shout out to employee #14! He was really nice and polite.
Yummy, quick custom made pasta made to order. Clean and well maintained place. Try their baked pasta!
Love the food portion. Taste is really good. And the price is reasonable. Highly recommended!
