Call Me Pasta

- really 3.5- small space, made for take out but with few tables to dine in- quick service- alright spaghetti- large portions (I ate three times) $20 price tag for my spaghetti

great option for when you're craving carbs. free bread + bowl of pasta anyone? however, they need to do better with price transparency. actual prices are +$2 when compared to their website.i'll probably visit again to try 1 more pasta shape and sauce, but this won't be on the lunch rotation.

Truly love this place. Pasta is top notch like you'd get at an expensive sit down restaurant. They know what they are doing and whoever designed the menu is first class. I'm grateful to be able to eat such high quality pasta dishes at that price point.

I have been coming to Call Me Pasta since it used to be Fluem Pasta (RIP) and then Pastagram (RIP) though this was the first time I have returned since the pandemic started. I noticed that the layout of the space had changed-- gone were few tables and the long narrow space and in its place was a larger menu and a smaller waiting space as the staff member explained to me that Call Me Pasta was now more of a takeout and pasta factory for their sister restaurant, Sola Pasta Bar in SoHo. On my most recent visit, I ordered the Like Stravinsky ($11.95) and the Bring Me to Capri ($12.95); the former was rigatoni alla vodka and the latter was spaghetti al limone. I really liked the citrusy bite that the spaghetti al limone gave me, but I would have loved some parm and a sprinkle of crushed red pepper flakes, but Call Me Pasta was sadly out of both. The staff did give us an extra portion of free bread though, which made for a nice snack on our walk to the ferry.

This is a cute little pasta place, seating is not too big only for 2 people. Staff is friendly. I tried the rigatoni with ragu sauce the first time and 2nd time the grandma, which is spaghetti with meatballs. The pasta is nicely homemade and perfectly cooked at dente. The sauce is rich and flavorful but overwhelmingly salty. After 3 bites it's overpowering. They asked if we wanted bread but they don't tell you is $2.66 for a tiny piece. So make sure you want bread before accepting.

I have ordered takeout from this spot twice. Upon entry, I have seen staff working diligently, making fresh homemade pasta on the spot for each order. The first time I went, Mike highly recommended that I order the spaghetti and meatballs, so I went with his recommendation. Everything is homemade fresh in-house. Unfortunately, my meatballs were a bit cold on certain spots, so it wasn't a perfect dish. So the next day, I ordered the tasting for two dinner options, which is offered only through Uber Eats. I took the pastas home, and it was still warm after the hour commute. Our favorites were: Call me Alfredo - sauce was really goodDon't Touch My ProteinPecorino Lovers - very peppery add lots of cheeseMr. Green - pesto sauce was really thick, and more pine nuts were needed to balance the textures. The pasta Tasting for two is worth ordering if you want to try everything at once. There are also other items such as tiramisu and seasonal dishes such as Bring On the Capri.

I have been coming here for a few years for lunch, but not very often as pasta is not my usual choice for lunch. Every time I give myself over to carbs and order, I'm very happy because their pastas are always nicely cooked, and the sauces are great. The only downsides to Call Me Pasta are the frequent name changes (lol) and they often are out of parm cheese, or red pepper flakes, or bread. I lovely the newish Laurel and Hardy sauce, the Alfredo is also good, and I just had the Arrabbiata sauce for the first time and loved it. In my experience you can go wrong with any dish here. I recommend trying their restaurant in Soho if you are looking for a nice sit down experience.

This place was more of a 3.5 star but I'll round up since it's hard to find speedy pasta spots around here. I got the Rigatoni with Pomodoro sauce, Broccoli, Mushrooms, and Chicken, which ended up being $18.50. It's not expensive compared to a sit down Italian restaurant, but I still felt it was overpriced given the portion size, so-so food quality and lack of seating. I think the pasta itself was well cooked, but the toppings were rather disappointing. They were also out of meatballs. If you are in a time crunch, Call Me Pasta will do but I'd suggest you take it easy on the toppings since they aren't worth it.

It's rarely open when it says it will be. Placed order and paid online and went to pick it up - door was locked with 4+ employees sitting inside. Was waved away and ignored.

Place is never open when it's supposed to be. Don't waste your time trying it unless you happen to luck out on a walk by when they choose to be op
