Pasta Press is a delicious gem in Boulder. Nestled on the edge of Pearl Street, this cozy restaurant is packed with delicious pasta. The service was top notch and you can taste the love and care in the pasta. The small open layout makes for a more personal experience, which I love but can also get pretty busy if the restaurant is full. Small note: there is limited seating, so be aware if you're here with a larger group. 5/5: food3/5: seating5/5: ambiance

With all the great reviews I was excited to try this place. I ordered the carbonara the past was on the softer side and the sauce lacked any real flavor except for the pepper. Lacked the true flavor or anything close I also ordered the cacio d Pepe. This was also covered in pepper and lacked the flavor usually made with proper cheeses. We just returned from Italy and ate both these several times. neither tasted anything close to these. The concept is great wish the quality and experience was better.

Home made and feels just like home! The food is so fresh and soooo high quality. The staff / owners are amazing. They made us feel so welcome and so important and appreciated. We loved every dish we got and couldn't even pick a favorite. The focaccia bread is a MUST. Don't skip out you'll be missing out. Conveniently located near pearl street. Stop in and support this AMAZING small business!

I give it a 4.5, but only because my Cacio E Pepe was very salty. Besides that the pesto my partner got was incredible. The staff was two young women that were very friendly, fast, and efficient in cooking. The interior was clean, cool, and welcoming. They also had a cooler of raw noodles you could buy to take home which I thought was pretty neat. I will definitely be back up to Boulder to try more of their dishes.

Found this little gem just half block from the busy Perl Street. Make sure you stop by and support this place. They really do have fresh pasta. The food is made right in front of you. Freshest ever! Definitely coming back again.

Awesome handmade pasta, literally watch them cook the sauce from scratch in front of you (see photo). Super quality food and top notch service. Highly recommend.

Fresh, fast, authentic, and delicious! We stopped in here to get some meals to go. They do have a fairly large table to dine in, as well as bar seating where you can watch them cook up your meal. The owner is from Italy and takes great pride and care to ensure everything is authentic. He has brought all the equipment and ingredients from Italy to make the pasta in house. You walk in and order from a kiosk. Dine in or carry out you can watch them cook it up while you wait. They also have pasta you can purchase and take home to cook yourself. We got three different kinds. Gricia - pork cooked to a crisp and pepper sauteed to coat mezze maniche. My hubby's fav! Amatriciana - tomato sauce spiced by Italian chilis and enriched with decadent pork over casarecce. Not spicy for us, but we have high heat tolerance. Ragu Alla Bolognese -Tossed with freshly made pappardelle (dine in) or mezze maniche (take away). My fav of the three! I would def stop by again. We took ours to go and reheated later along with their focaccia bread, which was delish also.

Delicious food. Friendly staff and very reasonably priced. My son and I were looking for something delicious and without the fluff. We found it here. Highly recommend.

Good, not great. Concept is there. Delivery and execution needs support. Ladies were great. But the food was very average. Love the idea of fresh pasta, on demand. But sauces are all pre-made. Pasta is all pre-made. And no option to add any meat to the dishes. And for the restaurant level pricing, we would have appreciated more options or the ability to customize to taste.

Run to this place! It's the best pasta and sauce hands down. I'm a native Philadelphian so I know good Italian. Stefano and Rachel, husband and wife team, have created magic here. It was very hard to choose just one dish but I ultimately decided on the pasta pomodoro. Insert chef's kiss. It was literally perfection. The pasta and sauce were so fresh. It was as if the tomatoes were cut from their vines minutes before making it to my plate. Simple, fresh, delicious. I'm already planning my returns so I can make my way through the menu.What they're also very known for is their takeaway. This is the concept the company was actually built out of but they do have limited seating for folks like me who like to dine in. I chatted with Stefano for a bit and he's the nicest guy and super passionate about the ingredients they use. Pricey, top quality ingredients... and utterly worth it... like all Italian imports. And we're lucky to have this Italian gem in the middle of downtown Boulder. Cin cin!
