PastAmore

Had the strawberry walnut spinach salad, chicken saltimboca (with pappardelle, since as it should be you pick your pasta!) and split a bomba for dessert (the cinnamon really adds to it). All delicious and fresh. Also tried the red sangria someone else in my party ordered– they know how to make it well! If you’re looking for a place to eat in this area I can’t imagine many places would best this one.

I have visited occasionally over the last 5 years or so with my family and this place never disappoints. The food is delicious and the business is family owned and run! It always great to see family small businesses still in business while beating out the chain competitors! If you want yummy Italian food, this is the place to go.

This is the only Italian restaurant I will eat at in New Hampshire. Everything taste authentic to include the appetizers and the pasta is fresh. The prices are a bit high comparatively speaking, but the freshness is worth it.

Just visited this location for my fourth time and it’s been perfect every single time! If you’re looking for a great Italian restaurant in this area this is the one for you. Service is top notch and the food is amazing! Can’t wait to go back.

My girlfriend and I come here all of the time, the homemade pasta is amazing. I highly recommend the chicken piccata and the chicken parm.

Came for a quick dinner before going to Wilton Town Hall Theater. Not impressed — chicken was bland and had an odd texture — boiled, maybe? Sauces had little flavor. Not worth the prices.

A friend wanted to go here for dinner the other night and I didn’t want to offend her by proclaiming my utter hate for this restaurant. It was bad in 2011/​2012, continued to be bad in 2014 and is still bad in 2015. They are nothing if not consistent!
I kept it simple with spaghetti bolognese. An Italian restaurant should at least be able to put out a good marinara and a good meat sauce if they hope to stay in business! I asked for some extra sauce because I hate a plate full of dry pasta with 2 tablespoons of sauce in the middle. I would be interested to see what they consider a normal amount of sauce because my «extra» sauce was minimal. I made a little comment to the waitress who just shrugged and walked away. I didn’t pursue it.
The sauce was very bland with a slightly bitter, burnt aftertaste. It did not have the velvety, creamy texture I expect in a bolognese. The pasta was too al dente. I thankfully didn’t order anything else on the menu. They had some wines by the glass that were perfectly adequate.
My updated review: Still bad and unless someone else is picking this restaurant and adamant about their choice I will not be back.
Will someone please, please, please open a decent Italian restaurant in the area!!!

Had a very nice, casual business lunch. Tough to make a choice, everything looked so good. Decided to go with the Risotto tutti de mare. I was not disappointed. Creamy sauce, loaded with seafood. Very tasty. Also sampled the tortellini. Cheese heaven. Really enjoyed the experience.

After hearing good things, my husband and I decided to go to this place and try it out, as we were craving pasta. The atmosphere is lacking intimacy, as it is open, bright, and the tables are close together. I had the conversation of the two men behind me in my ear the whole time. Although there are wine bottles as decoration throughout, the selection for wine by the glass was very disappointing. There was only one house wine offered for each kind. The menu has a lot of options that sound good, as well as gluten free and whole wheat pasta options. My ravioli came as a small portion, perfect for me, but certainly not for the price. This mushroom based and creamy dish was actually pretty good tasting. My husband got a garden pasta and although it was composed of fresh ingredients, we found it to be bland. For this price, there are other, much better, options for pasta in the area. Atmosphere really brings this place down.

While visiting the area last week, we dined here. I was pleasantly surprised, as the food was wonderful! I had the Eggplant Parmigiana (by now you must have surmised that I love Eggplant Parmigiana) and it was very tasty.. Hubby and our other dining companions had chicken or veal marsala and they pronounced it equally as good. We also split the Bruschetta for an appetizer, and it was delicious. Hubby and I had the most fabulous Vodka Martins in recent memory. They were so incredibly smooth and perfect! For dessert, we all had the Chocolate Bomb, and I must say, it is so adequately named, because it is, The bomb! I have read that some diners feel the restaurant is a little pricey, but an amply prepared dinner for four with drinks, appetizer, salads and dessert on a Friday night, was quite reasonable. I love the extremely casual atmosphere and the great food! at this little gem of a restaurant!

Three years ago, 5 stars. After tonight’s $ 98 dinner? Never again. Prices have steadily increased, while the quality had declined. My husband’s veal was burned. My daughter’s carbonara bland, boring. This was our first time back in a long time, having tired of the same old, same old increasingly inconsistent quality.
And tonight’s crew was incompetent in handling a loud, noisy group who had absolutely no respect for the other diners. They were milling around as if they were at a convention center, talking loudly, and even standing so close to tables their buttocks risked brushing into our dinners.
An elderly couple finally asked for their food to go, then promptly informed the loud standing group that their rude behavior had robbed them and other diners of a quiet enjoyable dinner. The dim witted staff should have been the ones to take control. Instead, they hid behind the counter, watching it all happen, looking clueless. Later, the waitress approached us, telling us that the offending group would like to buy us a drink. We politely declined as we were not interested in alcohol. The waitress went back to the loud mouths who promptly expressed shock anyone would turn them down. The waitress profusely apologized to them that they were offended. «SOME PEOPLE ARE JUST THAT WAY???» DID WE REALLY HEAR THAT?
Here’s the deal. If you are in the hospitality business, you had better not leave your business to those who cannot cook or manage all situations.
Negative 10 in real life. But one star in Unilocal-​world which irks me I have to rate it that high.

Very friendly staff! Food is great, but not your typical large Italian portions. Eat a snack before going if your real hungry. That would be my only negative criticism. They even sang happy birthday to my friend in Italian!!! Just wish the portions were a little larger.

Love this place! Never a bad meal and the staff is always amazing.

I have passed this place many times and finally stopped in yesterday.
I ordered a brusceta for an app.
I got it and it looked like a small pizza.
A round thin piece of bread with small chunks of tomato and chese baked.
I have never had it like this before.
2^nd i ordered this pasta dish which cost $ 19.99 and i was not impressed at all. For one this dish should be on the kids menu because there was hardly any pasta in this dish.
I have always been a fan of Carrabbas and will never come back to pastamore. For the price you pay you’re better off on going to the store and buying a box of pasta and a jar of sauce… And eat for a week.

I’ve dined at PastAmore a few times and I must say that their chicken Parmesan is one of the best around. The chicken was seasoned perfected and the cheese and sauce was also good. The bread accompanying the meal was fabulous. My wife enjoyed her Veal Saltimboca as well.

Ever since my first visit to Pastamore I have frequented it regularly, a minimum of once per month, and very often closer to once per week. I and my spouse have received exemplary service each and every visit. We have ordered off menu and specials, and the food never disappoints. Fried mozzarella, fried zucchini and calamari are some of our favorite appetizers. From the entrees: bianco verde, frutti di mare, chicken marasala and chicken broccoli alfredo are just a few of the great choices. My advice is: when you go check the specials, I have never had a bad pick from them and the regular menu options will always be there next time. Take your time with the meal, leave room for coffee and desert (tirimisu!) at the end, don’t be afraid to ask for a box for the remainder of the generously sized entrees — they are almost as a snack later! Finally, if you are considering pastamore, please ignore the drivel of misogynist, homophobic xenophobes whining about fries while they judge the appearances of staff members. That buffoon’s review is the reason I felt the need to update my review after three years.

Now I personally consider myself to be a working man. And being a working man this results in two things. 1) A healthy appetite and 2) A regular income I choose to spend some of on the occasional dining out experience. Unfortunately after visiting this establishment I 1) lost my appetite, left unsatisfied, and 2) feel discouraged at the though of spending my hard earned money at restaurants.
When I entered PastAmore with three of my coworkers, we were initially pleased with the environment… Well at least most of the lights were on when we entered. The water was complimentary, although we were informed that refills were not. Unfortunately for PastAmore these are the only things that appealed to us.
The three of us ordered sandwiches, because hey, what’s the worst that could happen when you order a sandwich? Turns out a lot more than you think.
I ordered a cesar salad sandwich which for the price point appeared to be a good buy. As I mentioned earlier I am a working man with an appetite so I also looked forward to the complementary French fries that come along with the sandwich. Unfortunately when the meal arrived, the sandwich was soggy as if it had been dropped in the sink and the portly man brandishing cargo shorts short enough to display the poorly done tattoo of what I now assume to have been his boyfriends name, and address.(I know the address was a surprise to me as well) thought the idea of remaking the sandwich would be out of the question.
With the sandwich having been an utter disgrace I turned to the French fries hoping to find salvation in that portion of the meal. Unfortunately I was in dismay when I looked to see how many fries I was actually given on my plate. To give you an idea of how many there were, you would have received more if you were on African food stamps.
When I attempted to approach my waitress she was no where to be seen, I ended up approaching a young woman with a dumpy ass who informed me that most people didn’t eat the fries, so me and my co workers should suffer.
In conclusion this restaurant screams «37 year old guy who banked a little to much on the validity of his friends telling him he’s a good cook after he invited them over for dinner one night. He seemed to have purchased this restaurant on a whim and threw together the menu with the first things that came to his mind» so next time you enter this restaurant hold your head in an oven until you can feel your taste buds melt off just in the hopes that this might improve your meal.

We stopped in here on a business trip and were pleased with our experience. The carbonara was lite and creamy and the tiramisu was excellent.

Everyone has a bad day. Two times a few months apart, nope, you’ve lost our business. Less food, loss of quality, higher prices and an owner with a bad attitude.
$ 14 for a dish of pasta with garlic and oil — not a lot of pasta and not a lot of flavor. No seasoning at all.
The specialty pasta dish is «homemade» pappardelle with a few fresh ingredients, cost a bit over $ 20 and tasted like a beginner’s practice dish and we doubt the noodles were actually fresh.
The only online menu you’ll find is out of date, prices are not current.

We wanted to try this restaurant after reading all of the great reviews.
The place is rather spartan and loud because there aren’t any rugs or carpeting on the floor. It took a few minutes for the server to bring us water and menus even though the place was almost empty on a Thursday evening. The bread was somewhat stale and hard. We ordered the rice balls and they looked, and tasted, like they were frozen and just dropped into the fryer. The texture was inconsistent– in some the cheese was melted and others it was cold and hard. The GF ordered chicken and I had pasta with meatballs. The pasta was ok, but nothing special. The sauce was bland and the meatballs dense. We didn’t have dessert.
The quality of food here is on par with Bertucci’s or Carrabba’s restaurant.
