    Stopped in for dinner while killing time before a game. I wish I had enough space in my appetite to try the pasta in a bread bowl, but I knew better. I settled on trying the volcanic fettuccine. In my head that meant I was ordering a spicy fettuccine Alfredo, when in fact the dish is a red sauce. (I just wasn't paying attention.) Red sauce doesn't typically thrill me, but I was not at all disappointed with this dish. While the shrimp was neither here nor there for me, I enjoyed the dish as a whole- especially the spice level. I also appreciate that before it was prepped he confirmed with me what level of spiciness I was looking for. (Medium proved to be perfect.) The pasta was also served with a sizable piece of focaccia that was happily used for wiping the sauce clean from my plate. The brussel sprouts at the table next to me smelled amazing, and some of the sandwiches looked appealing as well, so I'll be back to try some other items. Service was also very friendly, quick and helpful.

    Frozen dry hard chicken. Gross sauce

    Terrible. Wish I could give zero stars. My husband and I have followed Pasta209 on Instagram for quite some time and we were very much looking forward to it. Stopped here on our way home from the beach and disappointed doesn't even cover it. The food was abysmal. My husband got the chicken parm and the only edible part was the chicken. Fried and decent. The sauce was salty and like straight tomato paste, the noodles were gummy. I got the chicken Alfredo, the chicken must have been frozen and reheated. It was hard as a rock and dry beyond. The sauce was watery and milk chunky w no taste. I wanted to ask for our money back but honestly it looked like they needed our business. I don't enjoy writing bad news but I will NEVER return to this place.

    209pasta really impressed us! We came in with a group of six adults, a toddler, and a baby, and even though they mostly do pickup orders, we were able to snag a table and enjoy our meal at the restaurant, which was a nice change. It was clear they were super busy, we almost missed the chance to order! but the staff was still really helpful and friendly, especially since it was our first time. The pasta is the best I've had in the valley, and the rose Italian soda was a great choice to go with it. The portions are huge, so you definitely get your money's worth. The customer service was excellent, even with how busy they were. 10/10 would recommend, we returned a second time and We ordered the family platter of fettuccine Alfredo, volcano, pizza, and meat pizza, and everyone in our group was happy with everything. definitely check out 209pasta.

    I recently moved to Gustine and been wanting to try this spot for some time now. I decided to invite my gf for Valentines there and we were both excited. I reached out a few weeks before and they said there was no reservations. The co.pany even postee a special menu for V-day,So we decided to call the day of and was put on a waiting list for 2 hours. After 2 hours and upon showing up to the restaurant I was asked on what I wanted to order, as soon as I sat down tho and my gf arrived we went to place our order and the cook which I believe was the owner and a waiter nxt to him explaied to us that they had just ran out of bread and pasta that he had no more proteins on hand and that he only had enough ingredients to fulfill there current orders. That was a big waist of time and a mixture of emotions. Not only were we expecting to have a meal here since it was planned for weeks before but now I believe I might not ever try this spot in the future! Reading everyone's comments just reassures that they don't really care how they treat there customers. Making good food is there number 1 priority oh wait, HOW WOULD I KNOW, I FORGOT. NEVER TRIED IT

    Cacio Y Pepe
    Mike H.

    Very good fresh pasta. It's kind of weird getting it in a to-go container. Not sure how I feel about that but it was nice that we were able to take the leftovers home without asking for one! Clean place with limited seating. I had the Cacio Y Pepe and the pepper really popped. Good stuff. My wife had the Amatriciana and it was extremely tasty. I liked it better. Some heat which was welcomed. The salad was good and the balsamic dressing thick and tasty. Overall, a nice experience.

    Great Food! We've heard a lot of great things about this place. So we decided to try it out, we tried the Tour of Italy, Shrimp Fettuccine in a bread bowl, and the pepperoni rolls. The food is fairly priced and the the portions are perfect. Now for the taste,very, very good! Definitely will be back again, the restaurant is clean and the staff is friendly! Definitely recommend this place!

    Chicken Alfredo
    Nia C.

    I was greeted by a very sweet and helpful girl behind the counter. I told her it was my first time and she suggested the chicken Alfredo. It was delicious! Everything tasted so fresh and perfect. I was able to sit down and have such a nice dinner. Everything is homemade and I can tell the quality of the ingredients is great. I will return with my family next time!

I picked up some chicken artichoke, a beer sausage, and a smoked maple. The smoked maple was outstanding and easily my favorite. The staff was friendly and welcoming from the moment I walked in. They greeted me right away and asked what I wanted to order, which I always appreciate. I also decided to try a brisket sandwich, which looked too good to pass up. The brisket itself was very good and full of flavor. That said, I am someone who pays close attention to food handling. I tend to notice when gloves are used as a substitute for proper hygiene rather than an added layer of protection. Unfortunately, that showed up here. The employee making my sandwich handled a large magic marker to write something, then immediately went back to preparing food without changing gloves. That is always disappointing to see. Because of that, I ended up eating more of the meat and less of the bread, but the quality of the brisket still stood out. I did take a picture of my brisket sandwich, but the picture did not do it justice, so I decided not to post it. Overall, there is a lot to like here, especially the incredible sausage selection and the friendly service. I would definitely come back to try the tri-tip sandwich. I just hope the magic maker disappears.

Giancarlo is an amazing owner/manager and helped set up our amazing experience. We were able to sit in the back room on 3 separate tables. Our original group grew from 30 to 38 and they were still able to accommodate us. The restaurant is absolutely beautiful - exquisitely decorated with an Italian grocery store next door. I love this! You can dine and shop in their amazing little store! Our dinner was absolutely delicious - I ordered the margherita pizza and my husband ordered the gorgonzola and fig pizza. Of course I didn't get any pictures because I ate it too quickly and was having too much fun! Our servers provided us with the best customer service and took such great care of us. They were so patient with our large group and truly treated us like family. I want to thank Giancarlo and his wonderful staff for the excellent service and food and helping our team's parents enjoy a wonderful time together. It was so memorable and we will always be grateful for this phenomenal experience! I highly recommend Bella Luna if you are in town and want some delicious Italian food and feel like a VIP. The servers and their amazing customer service are one of the biggest reasons I would come back again and again!

Gusto is one of the few truly scratch-made Italian restaurants that specializes not only in pizza, pasta, and sauces, but also features an old-school brick, wood-fired pizza oven. Hell, they even make their own mozzarella! They have not only caught the eye of locals and Yelpers, but have also managed to earn a recommendation in the current Michelin Guide. The Good: * Private parking lot, as well as street parking. * Fabulous service from Alex! * Prices are very reasonable considering the food quality. * Local beers on tap. * Strawberry Prosciutto Salad (seasonal special) was fantastic! Who knew strawberries paired so perfectly with salty, cured prosciutto and pistachios? This might not be on the menu all the time, but if you see it, get it! * Complimentary focaccia was unbelievably soft and delicious. As if it couldn't get any better, their olive tapenade served alongside it was equally delicious, making for an unbeatable duo. * The Margherita pizza is the ultimate test of a pizza restaurant--and they passed with flying colors! It's so simple that if something isn't right, it'll be easy to spot, but everything from the homemade mozz to the slightly charred crust and the delicious sauce made this the perfect pie. I give it a score of 3.14159265359...! The Meh: * Meatballs were a touch too tough and could've been a bit more tender. They were still fuçking delicious, so honestly, who cares? The Ugly: * Despite the name, Seaside isn't the most glorious place, and this location is downright sus AF. Conclusion: Maybe one of the best meals so far of 2026. If you have any doubts about coming here, relieve yourself of them and get down here posthaste.
