Seafood Pasta & Chicken Francese
Tara T.

By far the most bland pasta dish I've consumed. Salt and pepper couldn't save this one.. going to bring it home and doctor it. Chicken francese at least tasted like something. But $30 for crab toast...? $160 for 2 people with beers, sharing an appetizer, and 2 desserts is absurd.

This 1 inch pile of sauce and mozzarella is supposed to be lasagna.

I ordered 3 in one dish. Lasagna, Stuffed shells, Chicken Parmigiano. My dish of food was an inch high. Covered in sauce and mozzarella. I had to fish threw the sauce and cheese to find the chicken and the shells. Lasagna, I'm not sure ..... i asked the waitress, what is this? She replied, I dont know. I'll ask my manager. He stops over. He's telling me it's lasagna! I'm Sicilian, I know what lasagna is. I've ordered from various restaurants. Never saw anything like this. Bottom piece pasta, thats it. I told him I'm not satisfied, I wasn't going to pay. He said I have too... i asked, no compromise, he said no. It's a half of lasagna. I said what? An inch high?! Because it was in between funeral viewings. I paid $ 30 for a pile of mush! The manager was arrogant. I would never recommend Fallston Basta Pasta.

Cheese pizza

I will start with it's a quality pizza. Crust is the star, focaccia I think. Sauce was good, and cheese seemed like it was a good quality. I didn't expect it to be so good I thought this would be a Italian sit down restaurant, that threw pizza on the menu. This pizza is a main dish.

For years we would visit the Timonium location until it shut down during covid. We lost our favorite server Matthew and wanted to see if this location knew of the last location. This location is inside a small shopping center in the middle of nowhere . The place has ample seating and space including a bar area. There weren't many people there so everything came out hot and fast. Our waitress was very attentive offering suggestions. We tried the dessert of the week called Chocolate Fireball it's chocolate mousse in a chocolate shell placed on top of 1 scoop of vanilla ice cream with fresh berries and whipped cream to garnish. once at the table, the manager Nick lit a small pour of Cointreau on fire and poured it into the mousse melting the chocolate shell. What a treat! Of course, I had other things but I was most excited about the desert.

Dennis was absolutely fantastic. The best server I've had in ages. Attentive, friendly, and made…read morethe whole experience feel special. We never had an empty water or had to ask twice for anything. We started with the mozzarella logs, which were fresh, crispy, and delicious. The spaghetti egg rolls were a fun and unexpected twist, super filling and packed with interesting flavors. The pizza was solid, though cooked a bit more than I usually prefer. The fra diavola had a nice kick and came in a generous portion. The build-your-own pasta bowl was enormous, overflowing with pasta and all the toppings we picked. I also tried the short rib dish. It was good, but at $30, I'm still deciding if it was worth it. It arrived lukewarm, so I'll reheat the leftovers and see how it holds up. Dessert was fun: the homemade chip-witch! Warm cookies that tasted way better than they looked , with melty homemade ice cream in between. A perfect finish which we split 4 ways. It is much smaller than I expected inside. I would make a reservation on weekends during busy hours just to be safe. We walked in at 8p on a Saturday and had our pick of a table. Overall, the service made the night, and the menu had some satisfying options. I wanted to love it but it was just ok overall.

However, the Dynamite Shrimp felt like an attempted knockoff of a well-known "...Grill" version and didn't quite measure up. As someone who considers myself an Italian food connoisseur, I truly love Italian cuisine, I was especially disappointed in the chicken parmigiana. It was dry, flavorless, and completely covered in a red sauce that was overly tangy and not very enjoyable. In my opinion, the dish was under-seasoned and lacked balance. Even the complimentary bread was underwhelming and not very tasty. Service was mixed. Our main waiter was pleasant and attentive. Unfortunately, his backup was rude and pushy. When I was asking questions about a menu item, she attempted to take the menu out of my hands before I had finished. I felt rushed and unheard, which was frustrating. Overall, I left hungry and disappointed, especially given that Italian cuisine is usually my favorite.
