    Hidden gem in not just the LES, but NYC. Easily some of the best pasta I've ever had. The only ding is the price at about $22 for a carton. However, they make up for this by having "buy one get one free" on the weekdays if you order through Uber Eats which I think is sooooo dope - great for having one today, and one tomorrow or splitting with a coworker. If you decide to go in person you'll be greeted by the nicest guy you've ever met making pasta by hand in a small open, bright yellow kitchen. There's a few chairs if you want to eat it there. Because they serve everything in cartons, it's easy to take to-go and walk around the LES while you enjoy it. They have sodas, but there is a smoothie and juice place right next door as well called "PULP" that I recommend to make it a full experience.

    There was a great giveaway where all day on a Saturday you get a free portion of freshly made pasta. After a short 20 minute wait on a line outside, I was treated to a nice bite. There was a choice of pasta in vodka sauce and I chose " spicy". It turned out to be nicely spiced. There are about 4 stools inside but just across Houston Street, I found a park bench to sit out a warm March day. This pasta was delicious. Cooked a bit more al dente than I prefer, but hearty and rich. I believe there is cheese involved. I did not ask. I will definitely be back, as their pricing is reasonable for premium restaurant quality pasta.

    Food: The pasta is delicious here. I tried the truffle mushroom rigatoni and although it looks simple, it was very delicious and exceeded my expectations. Pasta is al dente and cooked perfectly. The sauce was very flavorful and full of truffle flavor. The menu is simple with a choice of three pasta shapes and about five or six sauces. You can add on items for an additional cost. The pasta is made fresh to order. You can also purchase fresh pasta at their shop. Service: The staff are friendly and greeted me as soon as I came in. The cashier asked if I had any questions about the menu and was very pleasant. Ambiance: The place is small with only about four counter seats for dining in. You order at the cashier and pay and grab a seat when your food is ready. Overall, I would highly recommend this pasta spot and would definitely return to eat here.

    Soooo yummy. Really a good portion size for the price. Got the rigatoni with pesto and I love perfectly al dente pasta. We couldn't finish and took the rest to eat at the theater as a movie munchie hehe

    My son said it's the best pasta he's ever had. I tried some and I have to agree it's bomb just butter and Parmesan.

    I am giving this 5 stars because I believe in their concept, their price point was reasonable and…read morethey were also very flexible for a few different requests we had. Management was very accommodating on various levels - no need to describe the details as it's not relevant for an average review. know before you go - you literally have no other cheese but to have cheese in your pasta. Note that this is not a place for lactose intolerant kinds. I thought the concept was fresh pasta (which it is) but their ultimate menu items must include that cheese wheel. So fine. I figured they can at least give a non-cheese dish but rules are the rules. The place was packed on a weekend early evening. Lines were not forming (like it showed in the viral videos) but they were cooking up quite a bit at the front, because of carry out orders. Either way, on all angles - literally pretty much everything is ALL good and very positive. However, the one thing that needs to be addressed is that wheel made of cheese. Whoever created that chunk of a wheel, kudos to them/company. By golly - that gargantuan of a wheel was so filled with calories - I kid you not, it almost converted me to being lactose intolerant! So if you're about to have triple bypass the next day, I do not recommend this joint until you're fully healed. Yes, the flavors were good, but the cheesey elements were just too too rich. You also cannot tell them to lessen it, it's just set the way they cook the pasta within that barrel. Otherwise, the decor/ambience was nice, and tidy aspects really show through. Customer service was wonderful. Support your local businesses!

    Super cheap place to go after a show, they're open until 11 which is super nice…read more We got two of the fettuccine alfredo, one with creamy chicken and one with crispy chicken. I like the crispy chicken better, just because it added texture to the dish. Not bad, just not that good. We got the food within 5 minutes after we ordered. It was fine, the noodles were a good texture, just not a very flavorful dish. It's a fun place to try. Service was fast and there was plenty of seating. Seemed to be a super touristy spot near broadway.

    Stopped by here for a quick bite for late lunch/early dinner. The space is small but there's a few…read moreseats inside. The worker was kind and greeted us upon entering. Was also thoughtful in handing us our orders correctly which was nice. For the food itself I heard good things and was hoping to love it more-- but I think I was slightly disappointed. The flavors aren't so bad overall and if you have a pasta itch it'll scratch. But I've tried other places better at a similar or even cheaper price point with protein added in. I got the "some like it hot" while my friend got "midnight desire" with burrata added in. I paid about 22 for each dish. Now for my thoughts - flavor for "some like it hot" was not bad, sauce was a slight bit watery for my liking. The spice was nice and I liked that part the most. Pasta was "OK". The ravioli was stuck together for some, filling was adequate but, I would've liked a little more. I don't want to sound harsh, but it was all around just an ok spot. Maybe it was just that day. Burrata added is nice, I took mine to go do sadly it was melted on top (recommend to pack the burrata separately for to go orders) - "midnight desire" is basically vodka and the flavor for this one was kind of odd for me. Not the normal vodka I am used to. I personally wouldn't really get it again. It wasn't a bad sauce, just not like vodka I know. Had a slight "bitter(?)" aftertaste from some seasoning I guess. I'm not a pasta connoisseur but I AM Italian and I've tasted a wide ranger of pastas lol-- I think yummy cheese pasta in Hell's Kitchen offers a similar concept, portion but is more filling, diverse options for adding and overall, slightly cheaper. Perhaps I'll give this place another try on another day..

Theres some communal chairs outside nearby of the weather permits. I really enjoyed the ravioli and would go back for other flavors but it is pricey: $20 for a bowl I could finish all in one go. Took about 10 minutes for them to cook it in store

    I've spent hours sourcing the best cappuccino in the Carroll Gardens / Boerum Hill / Cobble Hill /…read morePark Slope neighborhoods. And this is it. I haven't tried them all, obviously -- too many coffee shops -- but what I have tried, and come back to, over and over, is the products of the amazing team at Posto. It's not just about the skillfully made drinks or the balance of flavors, the fresh, Italian-style coffee or the filled-to-order Italian donuts and Maritozzos (iykyk) -- it's the overall ambience. You come here to put down the screen and enjoy the moment. So often do we rush through our coffees, or even bring them to meetings, at the beck and call of the city's hustle. But at Posto the kind, talented, customer-first team asks you to slow down and escape all of that, to savor every sip of coffee in the classic Italian style. Walking in feels more like a poem than a cafe. Gone are the transactional, disingenuous "how are you's" and instead you get to discover all sorts of fun barista (and bar) creations, Tuscan products, and fresh pasta. The servers and owner are always read to provide a recommendation, and like in Italian cafes, they bring whatever treats and drinks you land on to you. (My favorite aperol spritz is also from Posto.) Outside, the peaceful garden hosts two large umbrellas. It's vibrant, as if you're in a neighbor's backyard and they are willing to share a colorful moment with you, birds chirping overhead. As I finished the last drop of my cappuccino this morning, I realized that forty-five minutes had passed, and every sip of coffee was just as good as the last. Thank you!

They have great backyard space and a decent amount of seating inside as well. The staff is really friendly and make delicious coffee. I got a bombolone and a latte.
