Pastamore is an excellent place to dine. The staff is very friendly and I feel very welcome there. Their standard menu is very good and the specials are excellent. I always get their soup because it is flavorable with a nice variety of the soup of the day. If you are in or near Amherst I highly recommend Pastamore if you like good Italian food. read more

We made a reservation last week for our Anniversary. We had a lovely experience with our server Julie. She was amazing & her attention to detail was spot on. She is a team player. It shows how much she loves working there. Our food was prepared perfectly and the ambiance was great! She made a very special evening from the beginning til the end. The Owners are doing a great job with their restaurant. It's like family there. They have the best staff and they're blessed. We frequent this restaurant weekly. Please take the time to visit this hidden gem soon. read more

I went in with my wife for lunch and we thought the food that we ordered was good, but the portions were small for the money that I spent. I got garlic bread as a side order and it was not too good. I got a Bud Lite draft and it was $8.99. The whole order came to $72 and that was just the food. Add in tip and it was not a cheap lunch. I won't be going out too much at these prices. read more

The staff is so friendly and welcoming! They remember you after only one visit and even know what you'd like to drink as your usual after ordering a glass of Chianti twice! Authentic Italian food and wonderfully lovely people, I can't say enough good things!!!! Try the haddock limone and the lasagna--you won't regret it! read more

My wife and I enjoyed this place. A relaxed Italian eatery with really good pasta. Great service. Easy in easy out. It's not upscale. It's more of a comfortable Italian dining. We will be going back read more

This quaint little spot is perfect. Everything we order is amazing. Authentic Italian food and good prices! We loved their espresso martinis too! I always clear my plate when I come here. read more

We had a party of eleven Saturday evening and Pastamore hit it out of the park! Great food, great service, I don't think it could have been better! We highly recommend Pastamore for fine Italian food and family friendly atmosphere! read more

The ambiance was okay... nothing too exciting. The service was good, although the server overdid her Of course... she must have said 800 times.. a little pored on.... And the food well, eggplant parm was so thin that you couldn't even see it! The chicken parm was also so thin, and not tender. I really wanted to like this place... just not impressed whatsoever. Do better! read more

My friends and I weren't sure what to expect when the restaurant changed names, but I'm happy to say we're lifelong fans now. We each ordered different meals, and all of them were winners. We ordered the 4-cheese gnocchi, seafood risotto, chicken special dish, mussels, and we also got dessert. The portions are hefty but manageable, and everything tasted phenomenal. Our server was lovely, and everything came out quickly. The building itself is very odd, but in a way that I adore. It's deceptively small on the outside, but seats quite a few within it, and while the layout is odd, it adds to the charm, at least for me. Highly recommend; I'll be taking visitors to the area here for sure. read more

I have visited pastamore a few times. Each time has been a delightful experience for me. The food is hot and made with love. The service is wonderful and welcoming. I've had the pleasure of being served by Julie a few times and honestly she makes it a very lovely experience. Very accommodating and friendly. I hope this restaurant continues to succeed with the delicious food/drinks and service. read more

Went for dinner tonight. Our wait staff was Julie. We were promptly seated and ordered a drink. Our meal was good but Julie never came over to see how our meal was or if we wanted another drink. I wanted another glass of wine. We noticed that the staff did a lot of talking with patrons therefore not paying attention to their customers. We asked Julie for the check which she gave us. She never brought us back our bill and credit. I went up to desk and she said sorry I "forgot". This service has happened the last two visits so I'm afraid we're done with this place. read more

We went on a Saturday evening at 5:15 pm. First thing that went wrong was we had no clue where the entrance was and guessed wrong. We ended up in the office buildings parking lot behind them and decided to just walk over. When we get inside we immediately see that only 5 small tables were taken and the rest were available. We were greeted with a "did you make a reservation?" Not a hello. We said we did not and she told us to hold on while she looked at her tablet for more than 5 minutes. She told us to wait while she was over and spoke to what I would assume was a manager. While 4 employees gathered around the tablet we were told that they could clear out some people and clean a table for us, after waiting nearly 15 minutes, we declined. She very loudly said I don't see what their problem is. At this point my son and I walked out while my husband told them that we no longer wanted to eat there. Unfortunately they lost our business. No where did they say that they require a reservation but they made us feel like garbage for not having a reservation. read more

Wonderful place. Food excellent and our waitress, Julie was incredible. Sweet , knowledgeable and just plain great. Please try pastamore. You will not disappointed. Stop in. Once you try you will be back. read more

I wish I tried this place sooner, first time was last Saturday, we got takeout, food was perfect. Then we decided to go back tonight to take our 3 granddaughters out for dinner. The service was amazing, from the time we arrived to the time we left. The bread was delicious, the food was accurate and fresh and delicious. New favorite place. I honestly do not cook Italian food that much at all, so it's a real treat to find a good authentic restaurant to enjoy the atmosphere and decor was very pleasant. read more

Our server Anna had a great personality and knew the menu very well. The food was amazing and super fresh. We had Chicken piccata, chicken Marsala, and pollo di Zucca: a butternut squash ravioli topped with chicken and a creamy garlic sauce. Everything came out piping hot and was just delicious. Pistachio cheesecake, profiteroles, and Italian coffee for desserts. This was our first time there, but we're planning to become regular customers!! read more

Service was wonderful. Server frequently checked on us & offered suggestions. Food just ok, nothing special: chicken piccata, lasagna, pesto noodles. Real downfall were the mussels. Only fair on flavor but more importantly 1/3 did not open due to being "dead". Questioned server about either getting additional mussels or adjusting the price. She said the kitchen did not do adjustments for "4 unopened". Actually there were 7, about 1/3 of our order but that didn't make any difference. read more

Great little mom and pop spot. Not the fanciest but solid service and food. Lobster ravioli was good but I didn't taste the lemon I saw listed in the menu description It's worth noting that they seem a little short staffed. I found the overall experience worth the patience though. read more

My wife and I are new to the area. We were driving by one night and saw Pastamore and agreed to add it to our list. Fast forward a month later, and we decided to give it a shot... 1. It's in a dark area at night, and we couldn't tell where the entrance was, so we guessed and guessed wrong. We ended up in an office park, but we parked there anyway and walked over to the restaurant. 2. We went up to the host stand and waited there for 5 minutes or more, while 7 employees walked by us multiple times and never said a word to us. One girl even stopped at the stand 3 times and never even looked at us. So, my wife decided to go up to some other area (a bar I think) and she asked someone who looked like she was in charge, and that woman said someone would be with us soon. Worth noting, she never apologized. Eventually someone came over and told us the wait would be 20 minutes. Well, we already waited nearly 10 mins by now, so plus 20, and assuming it might even be longer than that, we decided to leave. Imagine, if just one employee said, sorry we'll be right with you, we'd have stayed, eaten, and perhaps enjoyed our meal enough to come back again and again. Just the lack of one "be right with you" cost them a good deal of business (we eat out a lot). Oh well. By the way, we never did figure out where the lot entrance was located. read more

Wonderful meal tonight, seafood pasta filled with scallops, mussels and shrimp over linguini in a light red sauce - lots of flavor. The chicken and butternut stuffed ravioli were excellent. Started with lightly fried calamari with red sauce nicely done. A good wine selection, and good service. It was a smaller restaurant with average noise levels. Food above average. We're ready to go back. read more

Martini was spot on, and both our meals were delicious. Will always turn to Pasta Amore when we are craving Italian

The waitstass was really nice. That is the only thing that we enjoyed. We were given 2 plates for bread. They were stacked. The 2nd one was dirty, not like a spot, it was a dirty plate. Then my water glass had something floating in it. I completely get that there are more challenges because of covid, but dirty dishes? How can you keep people safe. I tasted my food, but I think this is the 1st meal I d read more

This is a great little Italian restaurant a little out of the way in Amherst. Ambience is nice, with a few tables (maybe 15-20?). Servers were excellent, nice, and prompt, without being overly overbearing. Food was delicious. My partner ordered the chicken cacciatore with linguine, I had the chicken piccata (lemon). Pasta was excellent, chicken was tender, sauce was just right. We had a bottle of wine and it was quite affordable. Highly recommend for a nice casual night out. read more

One of our go to restaurants! We celebrate all our family birthdays here and love it! Food is delicious and have never had a meal we didn't love. Always get the fried mozzarella triangles. They are the best. Service is always outstanding no matter who we get. 5+stars from us! read more

Kudos to our server Jamie! We appreciate the special attention she always provides. White Forest Martinis so delicious... the artichoke dip so warm and creamy with plenty of dipping toast, the Suppli delicious with plenty of sauce... that was the starters Veal Parmesan perfect. Alfredo with Chicken so decadent, my Chicken Marsala with homemade pappadelli pasta mouth watering! Their Tiramisu is large enough to share is light and airy melts in your mouth. I am looking forward to my return visit. read more

If you are looking for great Italian food, I think this might be the place. Everything from service to food was excellent! If I had any complaint it would be the music. I love when the music matches the style of a restaurant. Here it was just rock music. Still nothing major. Our server was very familiar with the menu and offered suggestions and answered questions for us. He was very friendly and made sure our experience was great. He brought out bread and an amazing dipping sauce to snack on while we waited. Not going to lie, we ate three baskets of bread! It was really good! I ordered the tortellini with cheese, husband ordered lasagna, and our daughter ordered linguine with a white wine, olive oil, garlic, and pepper sauce. We also ordered cheese sticks for an appetizer and finished everything off with a slice of cake to share. The pasta was so good! Definitely homemade. I can't believe I ate the entire serving. The portions were big and tasted delicious! Best Italian food I've had out, ever. read more

Went to this place on Friday night. Staff is very nice. Our waitress was also very nice - we gave her a great tip. Now, the food: my wife and I wound ordering the same thing: chicken parm with pappardelle. The chicken was pounded to about 1/4 inch in thickness - I doubt we got more than 3 oz of chicken. the pasta was not prepared well: under cooked and really had no flavor. Now the best part: the drinks. We each had 2 drinks. Tito's and soda/tanguray and tonic. The Tito's was $16 per and the gin was $14 per. So one oz of liquor and some tonic is a $16 drink? Since a Handle of Tito's cost about $25 and there are 59.2 oz of vodka in a handle - take 59 times $16 and you get $944 for the same amount of liquor that you pay $25 for. Ever since COVID we have all been getting f'd every time we go out to eat. I keep hearing about how hard it is for restaurants to keep going. Here's a thought: increase your quality, increase your portion sizes and stop gouging on liquor. If you fail: you deserve it. Never going back. read more

Great food! Every dish I've had has been outstanding and our server Jamie Lee is fabulous! We live Connecticut so we're not there a lot but when we travel to NH, we're always at that restaurant many times. The tables are nice, but it would be nice to have some booths. The restaurants is wide open but would love more private tables. read more

My friend and I ordered take out, Veal & Chicken Marsala. Our favorite dishes except from Pasta Amore. It was very plain and the Marsala sauce tasted like it came out of a jar. Very disappointed and will not be eating there again. read more

This is the best Italian restaurant I've ever been to north of Boston. Great food friendly staff you can't ask for more.

Went in right before Christmas for a lunch with friends. I had been here before and the food was good. Some dishes are great and some, not so much. One person in the groups loves to eat here, so we go. We got some apps to start, which were very good. Presented well and all tasted good. For dinner, I tried the Maiale Milanese with angel hair pasta. I usually get the chicken picatta, but it just isn't very lemony or seasoned enough for me. It came out looking great, 2 big pieces and looks nice & crunchy, but it just wasn't good. The pork was pounded to smithereens, the cutlet wasn't seasoned in any way, and was way over cooked. The pasta sauce was so bland and there wasn't enough to coat all the pasta on the plate. I ended up bringing most of my meal home, but never finished eating it. Very disappointing. :( read more

I have had a great dinner here in the past, but recently tried to make a takeout order. No one answered the phone. I tried several times over the course of an hour with no luck. I ended up making a takeout order somewhere else. read more

Just went Pasta More for lunch ordered side dish of meatballs. They literally were so bland and had no flavor whatsoever. This place is so inconsistent with the quality of their food, just hit or miss. read more
