The pasta here is excellent--perfectly al dente and cooked to perfection. The simple sauces and fresh ingredients really highlight the fine craftsmanship of the pasta. The restaurant has a very lively atmosphere on weekends, and the swings add a fun, unique vibe to the space.On a recent visit, we had an issue with the service that left us initially disappointed. However, the owner personally stepped in, addressed the situation, and took immediate action to make things right. I was very impressed with how he handled it. It's clear he genuinely cares about his business and his customers' experiences.I'll definitely be back--not just for the amazing food, but because it's rare to find a restaurant that values its patrons this much. Highly recommend!Let me know if there's anything else you'd like to tweak!

This was such a fun culinary experience! The tables have swings so that in it of itself was a vibe. The pasta was fresh and you really got to taste the unique flavors of each dish. I had so much fun for a little girls night out here. The ambiance is super cute and it really makes you feel like you're at a pasta factory. They will definitely be seeing me again !

My sister and I shared this truffle pasta and it was quite yummy. This place was little on the medium pricey side but we are in NYC and im not from here so don't take my price count into consideration. The place was cute with a nice little bathroom. The expresso martini wasn't my favorite. They have these cute swing chairs that made the place seem different from all other pasta spots. It seems like a cute place to have a girls night if your craving pasta or Italian food.

Phenomenal gem in the west village. I am always (surprised) & thrilled when I find a new place to love. Maestro Pasta has a homemade feel in the food, the service and the ambience. My pasta (bolognese) was delicious- cooked to perfection ... the paired Chianti - divine. Then I tried what seriously might be the best tiramisu I have ever tasted. Hand delivered by the owner & chef. Seriously - better than most in Italy. As an old New Yorker with a high bar ... this place is wonderful. Highly recommend!

I went on Saturday, July 21 and there was no wait for a table of 3. I will definitely not be returning to this establishment. The pasta was undercooked (literally crunchy), cold, and lacked flavor. My group of 3 each took one bite and immediately we paid our bill and left. The only reason I am giving 2 stars is because there was no wait, the staff was nice, & and the swings were cute. I would not recommend coming here.

PROS- great service- decor and ambiance is intimate and give good vibes- good wine and drink options, 10/10- decent size portions- lots of food and drinks options- food seems authentic CONS- some dishes are hit or missCame here with family who were visiting from out of town. We were in the area and had a picky-eater with us who only eats pasta and this was the closest with decent reviews. The space is really lovely, romantic, authentic countryside Italian vibe. There is a large food and drinks menu. There are not many veggie/non pasta options but lots of everything else. We had the tomato mozzarella flatbread, cheese platter, and three pasta dishes. The flatbread was good (7/10), and the cheese platter was a 10/10, and I would highly recommend! It's a large portion good for the whole table and could easily feed four people as an appetizer. The three pasta dishes were okay and not very memorable, I feel like they were lacking a little flavor and some traditional seasoning, but otherwise came as large portions. All the drinks and wines we had were great 10/10!

This review is mostly for the Tartufo truffle pasta... it was so rich, creamy, and flavorful. If you're worried the truffle won't be strong enough to come through, fret not.My friend's pasta was just okay. It was tart and fresh but really paled in comparison to the tartufo.I'd love to try the truffle ravioli next time as our waiter recommended that.Great service, ambiance is nice. Seating is interesting and unconventional but actually a bit uncomfortable in my opinion.

Have you ever eaten pasta from a pan sitting in a swing? Proud to check this one off my list.Maestro Pasta is easily a contender for the cutest place I have randomly stumbled across while in the city to get dinnerr. The exposed brick wall, the LED neon signs, the view into the kitchen, THE SWINGS??? I think I could confidently list 15 more things that were great about this place Let's add more to that list: THE FOOD The flatbread was insane.... First off those cheese pulls??? I finally felt like a pro I can't put into words how good this flatbread was, which makes sense because it was chefs choice.. The Prosciutto was so fresh and paired with the arugula and parmasean cheese.... Absolutely delicious. Both pasta options were also so delicious. & how cute is the presentation. Something about eating out of the pan just makes it better, I can't explain it. The best part of this restaurant was that with the salt and pepper they had mini olive in bottles... literally so fresh and absolutely addicting. I am confident I could've drank it LMAO. The staff here was so nice and took such great care of us. They were so sweet... I was a bad foodie and didn't ask their names unfortunately but the woman sat us also was our waitress, so sweet!! & so funny we were cracking jokes all meal What we got:- Cacio e Pepe- Pasta con Polpettine - Parmacrudo Focaccia- Pollo e PalateDrinks we got:- Cabernet Sauvignon - Mojito Executive Chef: Damian's RosellaCheck out his instagram: @chef_droseFor more information & to hear more about my experience...

The staff were amazing! The servers and boss were excellent! They were personable and authentic. We celebrated my friend's milestone birthday and ordered 3 pastas , 2 appetizers and some wine. The ambience was cute! My friends sat on a swing bench that fit the table perfectly. We did not share that it was my friend's birthday until we paid. Unbeknown to us, the server and owner brought us a shareable tiramisu and sang happy birthday to my friend. So sweet! The pasta was al dente! Deliciouso!

Been here twice now, and I have nothing to brag about except to express my disappointment.The ambiance and decor are pretty cool. I like the rustic look of it. The service is okay, nothing extraordinary.The food is very mediocre. Both pasta dishes lacked flavor and were bland. The meatballs on the spaghetti were so tiny! It felt like it was a freaking joke. We have to ask for grated Parmesan cheese to add some taste/flavor to it, so we can eat it. Some cocktails are okay and some are not. Again they are overpriced for the quality of food/drinks and are not worth it. The name of the restaurant should be Lame Pasta.
