The Pastashopaz

Wow wow wow I love this place it's so cute on the inside. Has a little area for the kids to play with toys and it gives clean mom and pop. I got the small 7 dollar bowl and that is definitely plenty of food but I guess if you're totally American you want that big portion there is the 10 dollar bowl option. But I am plenty full off the small bowl. The pesto bowl tie with grilled chicken and roasted veggies is what I got and it absolutely SMACKED! Pesto definitely was not from a jar and if it was you fooled me. But I will be back to try all the versions of pasta and sandwiches!! So glad I took a chance on this local eatery!! It's right next to the Starbucks in the Target parking lot. I was also graced with a cannoli and that too was great!! Highly recommend this place for good comfort food! The owner was very nice and let me know that if you order to go the drink is a bit cheaper! So that was cool!

Our only problem is we are never on this side of town! But, every time we have a swim meet in Oro Valley we make sure to stop by for a delicious, quick bowl of pasta with amazing garlic bread. We are tough critics - for the money you cannot go wrong coming here. Plus, it's supporting local!

Took my daughter and her friend here for dinner. They both got the penne Alfredo ($7 bowl). My daughter's friend added the breaded chicken to her bowl. Both girls really enjoyed their bowls.I ended up ordering the cavatappi with creamy pesto sauce. At first glance it did not look like it had a lot of sauce. After I mixed it some I was happy with the pasta to sauce ratio. The pesto sauce is a $1 up charge. I did enjoy the flavor of the sauce and could taste the basil coming through. I had sausage added to the meal.We shared a cheesy garlic bread. It came out piping hot. Had to let it cool down before we cut it into smaller pieces. The garlic bread was served with a side of their marinara sauce. I found the marinate pretty flavorful and I enjoyed the chunks of tomato.We really enjoy the restaurant and will continue to order here.

Meh, this was fine but I don't think I would go out of my way to go back. It seems like it's boxed pasta and for $30 to feed my husband, my daughter, and me, that seems a bit pricey. My husband and I each got the large pasta. I like how you can customize it to your preferences. My husband got penne with meat sauce and chicken parm. I got bow tie with meat sauce and a breaded chicken tender. We also got an order of the garlic bread. Overall, it was good but nothing special. I wasn't impressed by the meat sauce. The garlic bread was definitely the best part. The serving of pasta is pretty large--I had some leftover for lunch the next day. The ambiance could use a little love--just seemed kind of spare and sterile in a way. The best part was the kids' corner! My daughter loved playing with their selection of toys and books, so good work there! It's an order at the counter place and it was easy. Food took a little longer than I thought, esp because we were one of two patrons. Also if you go in the evening there's a huge west facing window with no window covering, so be ready to put your shades on.

We were nearby and saw this place had opened so decided to try it and were pleasantly surprised. The decor is very unassuming, simple and clean. The focus is on the food which for a fast pasta shop is perfect.There is a section for children, the seating is comfortable and spacious, and it is set up for quick pick up and dine-in. They had a steady business while we were there and for the food it is worth it.We both got the penne and it was perfectly al dente, which is actually a challenge for quick pasta so that is a major accomplishment and a very pleasant surprise. The pesto was not overly oily with a good balance of garlic, pine and basil. The pasta was not drenched so you could enjoy the pasta and the sauce. Similarly, the marinara had a great tomato tang with a nice amount of garlic and was not thick or thin, so it coated the pasta perfectly. We enjoyed both sauces.The chicken parm and eggplant parm were a litttle disappointing in size but had good flavor. They had a nice amount of cheese that crusted both and they were cooked thoroughly. The cheesy garlic bread had a good crunch, enough cheese and garlic so that it was tasted but not soggy in butter or bitter. So a nice bite of bread.The service is like many dine in fast food where you order and can take our or dine in. The staff were friendly but it is not a full table service place, so do not expect that level of service. However, if you need anything you can ask and they are very helpful. Overall, it is a great edition to the fast food scene for those looking for some pasta or Italian style sandwiches and salads. The pricing makes it affordable for families and the speed makes it easy for a quick pick up for dinner or lunch. We look forward to seeing them grow and fit a niche that has been lacking in the area.

This place has that family owned business kind of vibe to it. As you walk into the restaurant, it has a very simple decor, there is no menu board on the counter. And their take out boxes are just exposed in the open behind the counter. Most of the staff are young boys, very polite, but never ever once checked on us, after our food was served. This place just opened end of January 2023. So probably they will make some improvements on the interior of the establishment. The food was priced decent, if you're on a budget, and craving for pasta, this is the place for you. I noticed most of the costumers are young. There are 2 size options for their serving. Then choice of pasta, sauce and sides. They have salads and sandwiches. Food is not bad, but nothing special about it, either. We got curious and I'm sure a lot of people will, too.

Came to the Pasta Shop when they first opened.Wasn't disappointed. I always get bowtie rose sauce with grilled chicken / sausage. Always hits the spot. I keep going for more when I go to Tucson. They never disappoint.The wedding cake always on pointAnd don't get me started on the Reeses cookieI always ask if they reheat it to make it extra toasty. Extremely satisfying!!!!!!A family owned restaurant with a friendly staff and the owners always welcoming. Makes me feel like Home.Can't wait to go again

First time having this place as I'm visiting out here from California. Pasta was good would recommend but the cheesecake has me wanting to throw up . Ate 3 bites when realized it tasted like rotten cheese. Tasted as if some one put Parmesan cheese with rotten milk on top of graham crackers.

We love this place! What a great concept and the food is delicious. Customer service is unexpectedly nice. We get large bowls and have enough for leftovers. There are so many combinations to try, we'll never get tired of eating here. Definitely give this Mom and Pop business a try and support the locals.

We paid $27 for all three items and we couldn't even finish!! Their service was quick and the food was hot when we picked it up ! There's games to play while you're eating I definitely would recommend trying it !!
