Romance ala Italiano with friends! Do not miss the Lemon Tiramisu-extraordinary!
Mary-Ellen G.

The true Definition of Italy here in San Antonio! Family owned! Amazing breads fresh everyday. The most wonderful Caprese Salad with homemade mozzarella.... wonderful unique wine list ! The service impeccable. The ambiance Cafe Italiano!

Roast pork and faro soup.
Mary L.

Always stellar food and service. I'm just adding some more drool worthy photos. This place is the best Italian place I've ever eaten at. Make sure you make reservations.

Tiramisu cake yummy
Gilberto C.

Nice,clean,Cousy super friendly close attention. Owner personally attention. The waitress was very nice attentive with a great smile. The food was delicious. My Milano chicken. Don't let the small bowl fool you because it's a lot. The large spaghetti meatballs really two people could eat of it. The egg plant platter delicious. To make the story short everything was excellent!! I must say that I strongly recommend this place. Out of the other two places that I visited this is #1 the best of the 3. Must try place!!

Chicken Parmesan, Cavatelli alla fontina, penne alla rustica.

Delicious Italian, with many items made in house. Food was great, service was attentive, the ambiance is clean and chill. It's in a shopping ctr with plenty of parking. We had the spiedini appetizer, chicken parm, cavatelli, penne rustica, as well as affogato and chocolate cake for dessert. All of that was amazing, we were a little underwhelmed by the meatballs, but that may just be personal preference. We'll definitely be back!

Bucatini Florentine!
Ray T.

Excellent in all fronts from food to service to ambiance. We got the chicken piccata and chicken bucatini florentine and they were delicious and great portions. The taste, freshness and portion were just amazing! Thnx guys!

Lunch is from 11-5 pm!! Lunch specials start at $10 includes soup or salad AND fettuccine Alfredo it spaghetti marinara. $15 has pastas with protein in them. You can add proteins for an up charge. Shelby was wonderful and the owner comes table side to greet you. Impressed with a beyond 3pm lunch cutoff. Take advantage!! I rushed everyone thinking lunch was going to be unavailable. Sweet service and delicious food.

Autumn Crostini
Melissa L.

we dined in this evening, we made a reservation as it was suggested online. We were greeted by the hostess and seated right away. This is a small but lovely restaurant, mom and Pop Italian restaurant. We ordered the Autumn Crostini to start, and it was very good and flavorful with mushrooms, blistered tomatoes, fresh ingredients. Next, we had a Caesar salad that was very flavorful, beautiful, green lettuce, and Housemade dressing for dinner. I ordered the chicken Diablo, which consisted of chicken, shrimp, vegetable. My dish had a kick, but it was very good just the right amount of spice and the vegetables tasted fantastic. I can't wait to dine in here and try something different everyone at our table enjoyed their dishes, and the service was great! yummy!

Pasta Choice lunch special: Fettuccine Della Casa

There is nothing not to love about Pazzo Pastaria. I go, I take visiting family and friends for an awesome dinner. Pazzo Pastaria delivers the ambiance, the beyond phenomenal food.... and great service I'm on a quest to try everything on their menu, one visit at a time. Thank you again, Pazzo Pastaria.

Lasagna Bolognese
Delores L.

First time at Pazzo Pastaria...meeting my family for lunch. Pazzzo appears to be a neighborhood restaurant with a warm and welcoming feel. They have a lunch menu, which is reasonably priced. It feels like your at home in your mom's kitchen. Our server Shelly highlighted a few popular dishes and ones like chicken Parmesan and Eggplant Parmesan that can only be ordered at lunch. We ordered the spaghetti bolognese, chicken Parmesan, lasagna bolegnase and chicken piccata bowl. The owner visited our table to inquire about our meals. In unison we said delicious! All their pastas and dishes are made from scratch. The spaghetti was a bit larger than the standard sphaghetti but tasted very fresh. Paz'zo Pastaria was a hit for us!

Shrimp Vesuvius!!
David B.

Shrimp Vesuvius! OMG! I'm from New Orleans, and this is the best shrimp 'n grits ever!!! Rich and creamy, shrimp perfectly done, tomatoes and spinach, a tad spicy but not too much. Everything else was good too! Fantastico! Grazie!

Great wine suggestion!
Tracy M.

A++ on everything! Met another couple for dinner on a Wednesday night. MADE RESERVATIONS- yes, even on a Wednesday. This place fills UP! We sat in a cozy corner where we could enjoy our evening with friends. Our server was amazing. (I feel bad that I cannot remember her name! ) She made fabulous wine & dinner suggestions- and was so knowledgable on the entire menu. Attentiveness was on point. Everything we ate was delicious! All pastas are made fresh to order and WOW does that make a difference! Appetizers-Calamari with delicious dipping sauce, and Spin/Artichoke dip. Lasagna- huuge! And our friend really enjoyed his Chicken Parm. Husband really enjoyed his Buccatini con Salsiccia (+sausage & red pepper..) Excellent! We'll be back again!

Do you have a gender neutral restroom or family restroom? An elderly member of our party would possibly need assistance and has an attendant to help in these situations, but the individual is male and the nurse is female.

We have one restroom that is non gender specific and handicap accessible.

Hi there. Can we order take out on the afternoon of 31st? We want this for New Year's Eve to enjoy at home.

We open at 11:30. The size of your order and when you place it will effect how we can accommodate it. We will definitely not be able to do any to-gos after 5pm.

Is there delivery for this restaurant?

No delivery, we offer pick up to-go on Tuesday-Thursday

Overall: Such a fun spot for cheesecake! Definitely worth checking out if you're a cheesecake fan…read more Parking: There's a small parking lot right by the shop, but it can fill up pretty quickly. We were able to park, but I could see it being an issue during busy times. Seating/Ambiance: The indoor area is pretty small, with just a few tables. They also have some tables outside along the side, which is nice when the weather is good. It's more of a quick dessert stop than somewhere I'd plan to hang out for a long time. Cheesecake: You can get cheesecake by the slice or in individual jars, which I thought was a cute option. They have a good variety of flavors. We tried the Turtle cheesecake and it was delicious! Rich, creamy, and definitely hit the spot. Bonus: They have a loyalty/reward where after 10 jars, you get a free jar, which is a nice incentive if you live nearby or become a regular. One suggestion: My only complaint is that I wish they had a description of what's inside each cheesecake flavor. You have to ask about the ingredients/fillings for each one, which makes it a little harder to decide when there are so many options. Everyone's very nice. You select your cheesecake & then go to the end of the counter to pay. Overall: Cute little cheesecake shop with lots of fun flavors and the option to get individual jars. Parking and seating are limited, but the cheesecake is definitely worth a visit. Would come back to try more flavors!

I tried the limited edition raspberry black sesame (6$), cookies and cream (6$) and the space in picnic? (9$, the lemon meringue, blueberry one) My favorite was the lemon meringue (9/10), then raspberry black sesame (8.7/10), then cookies and cream (6/10). The meringue was such a nice texture and the berry brightness and lemon was wonderful. The raspberry was perfectly tart in contrast with the nuttiness of the black sesame. The cookies and cream were just average to me, nothing special. Service was decent and you get to keep the jars. They have one dollar off frappes M-Thrs happy hour (3-5 i think?) I would come back to try other flavors! Makes a great gift.

The pastry and artisan work on the pastries is phemononial. The pastry is some of the best I have had throughout the MidEast. I just finished the last piece of Baklovah and I am mad at myself because I should have have bought more. Hubs has 3 scoops of Geleto. Heavenly Pistachio. I ate a 2 person piece of Cream Kunufa. It was a bit bland and needed Rose Water in the syrup; The Kunufa needed to be cooked a bit more. Too soft and the cream wasn't Iskta Cream. It was more rubbery. The place is gorgeous., however. Beautiful decor, excellent service and all waitstaff are so polite. With the amount of people, one who except a grump, not one there. Beautiful coffees, I should have not gotten a Lavender Vanilla Gelato. No, I needed the Kunufa. The one thing I didnt try was Turkish Delight. Houston's beat their in looks and selections, but not in pastries. The Pistachio pastry and Peach was out of this world gorgeous. So much talent. Somethings are very expensive and others are very reasonable. I would love to watch the artisans create the pastries. The are huge proportions and so realistic. We really enjoyed this stop. Houston, you needs this here. There is nothing close to compare too. The Woodlands would be great,as well. Again, the camera wasn't working.

They offer baklava (although I don't see it on the menu), many flavors of tiramisu, crème brûlée, cookies, cinnamon rolls, Dubai chocolate in several iterations and many more pastries. Also serving pizza, salads and coffee drinks. Whew! I took home a Biscoff cinnamon roll. It's very large for about $9. I'll let you know if it was worth it. Go there.

8 courses of dessert may seem like too much, but Nicosi has made the change in my mindset after my…read moreexperience here. The word dessert escaped my mind throughout the process. We waited by the Pullman Market porch area for our tasting and they came out with mini frozen hibiscus drinks. I expected sweet, but only had tart flavors that stimulated my palette. Finally, me and my friends were taken in to a private dark room with the seats surrounding the kitchen where the magic was about to happen. The 8 course comes with 4 different flavor profiles and 1 alcoholic drink per flavor type. The most memorable profile was umami with the jerk chicken and bitter with the banana and chocolate. These two topped off as my favorites. The chocolate with my banana was the best I had ever yet. The bowl had to be picked clean. The chefs walked us through each of the dishes and explaining the story behind as well as any questions we had. We all had a blast with the tasting and would come back again.

They have a storyline to create a plot for the "dessert" creations. The pastry chefs interweave sweet, salty, sour, spicy, and umami throughout the evening AND is also paired with a drink per dish. They tell you how to eat the dish for maximum enjoyment of the desired taste experience. They do an excellent job of creativity, presentation, and combination of flavors. Such an intimate setting. After it's all done, they do part you with a BIG fortune cookie with a handwritten fortune! This is the time where you are allowed to pull your phones out. And you can also step in the kitchen area and take pics. Menu does change. I'd definitely go again!
