    Innard of mochi corndog
    Angela B.

    Still tasty after all these years two pastas togo $26 Could be 2-4 meals depending how you eat fettuccine bolognese (added meatballs) $15?? Bae ate it in one sitting. I found it flavorful and well worth the price, not my fav rendition, but easy to eat. Creamy dreamy sauce with fettuccine on side $10?? I go home and add veggies + protein and I have a couple meals since I break up the pasta into portions. I like how if you ask for pasta on the side, the pasta still has a bit of chew days after! Service Very pleasant and courteous! Placed an order online and got my food after my 15 min drive

    I saw this spot on Instagram months ago and finally got a chance to check it out while passing through Westminster. They were running a 50% off corndog sale, which meant you could get a coated corndog for $3.50, and it was totally worth it. For pasta, I tried a few of the premade options since I typically don't like making my own. Here are my thoughts: Rosé with Shrimp - Very tasty and not overly sauced. The shrimp were fresh, and the noodles tasted freshly made. I added mushrooms for an extra $1, which was a nice touch. Solid noods. (4.5/5) Bulgogi Cream Pasta - I really liked this one. It has a medium level of spice, but it's not too overwhelming. Not overly creamy, yet very flavorful. Fresh pasta as well. Absolute banger. (5/5) Korean Corndogs - They were freshly made. I tried both the ramen coating and the blue Takis coating. I loved the Takis one; the ramen one was okay. Takis: (4.5/5) Ramen: (4/5) Overall, the hype is real, this place is delicious. It's a small spot with a few tables inside, but they serve up a great fusion of Asian-inspired pastas.

    This place was so delicious! Came in here 10mins before closing and they were so busy. Customer service was great and the vibe was amazing. I ordered the dreamy creamy pasta. It was so good. Definitely recommended if you want pasta on the go. I will come back and try more things. Thank you! Keep it up!

    Wow spaghetti and garlic toast

    This was my second time visiting Wow Spaghetti, and I'm shocked that they've kept prices so low. The build your own pasta starts at $9.99 and you can add meat and vegetables at an additional cost. I tried the bolognese pasta (comes with meat) and added spinach and mushrooms for an extra $1. Their garlic ciabatta bread is also $1. Unheard of in this economy! The bolognese sauce had plenty of ground beef and was slightly sweet. I liked the consistency of the pasta too. Flavor wise, it's not the best pasta I've ever had, but it's one of the most affordable.

    That cheese pull

    This place is truly a hole-in-the-wall, you'll miss it if you don't know it, kind of place, but if you can find it, it's a treasure. It's also pretty heavy on Korean fusion with pasta, so love it. Not gonna lie, the prices did scare me a bit at first because they were pretty high and the pictures on Yelp had me fooled into thinking it was small. But when it came out, boy were we wrong. The bowl was packed and it was a pretty large portion. We ordered 3 different things to try, but one bowl was enough to feed all 3 of us, so obviously we didn't finish and brought the remainder home. This place has a nice casual diner vibe, not too loud, so easy for a casual hang out. Drinks are also self-serve so I like the ease of it. Bulgogi Pasta - I'm simple, I see bulgogi and I order it. They did not skimp on the meat, in fact they were super generous with it that I was able to get some with every bite until the end. They made it super creamy as well so it's pretty filling. If your group isn't too hungry, this bowl can easily feed 2-3 people by itself Corn Cheese Buldak Sauce - Too unique to pass up. This once was the winner in our group. It's creamy, had a great kick (medium-spice), and the corn added a great texture to the creamy noodles. We're coming back to try the creamy dreamy shrimp for sure. And I might have to order that corn cheese buldak pasta again

    Probably one of the more unique places I've been to, and one I wouldn't expect in Westminster! It's on Westminster Blvd, and is a pretty small shop with a good amount of seating. Not that busy for a weekend night, however. It's a build-your-own pasta spot, which I think makes it stand out, with different pasta types, sauces, and proteins. I got my pasta pretty barebones with meatballs, which were great!

    8/10 Build your own: I ordered the pappardelle pasta with smoked sausage and chose the rose sauce. I also requested extra sauce, since on my previous visit I felt the pasta was a bit dry, pasta should be drenched in sauce! This time, the portion of sauce was much better, and I appreciated that. However, I felt it lacked cheese, if there was any, it wasn't noticeable. That aside, the overall flavor was good. Next time, I'd probably try a different sauce, as the rose sauce tasted more like a standard marinara than a true cream-based rose. Cost: $15.00 before tax.

    We actually stumbled upon Wow Spaghetti by accident, we were originally looking for the old donut shop that used to be here (one of my boyfriend's favorites). What a happy surprise though, because I absolutely love both Asian and Italian food, and this place is the perfect fusion of the two! While ordering, I asked about the wontons I had seen mentioned in older Yelp reviews. The owner kindly let me know they no longer serve them but then surprised me with a dumpling to try. That gesture alone showed how amazing the service is truly 10/10 hospitality. As for the food : also a 10/10. Everything we tried was delicious, and I'm already excited to come back and experiment with different combos on the menu. The inside was nice and cool with the AC running, super clean, and it even smelled great. Next time I'll definitely plan to dine in. This spot feels like such a hidden gem, and I'm so glad we found it. Highly recommend!

    the fettuccine has such a good chew to it. I love the unique flavors. I wish there were a little more noodles for the price but the customer service was great, they were so helpful. I would definitely come again if I wanted good pasta.

    Rose Sauce with Bacon + Spinach/Mushrooms
    Jennifer D.

    I really love the pasta here and how customizable it is! I've tried both the Rose and the Creamy Dreamy sauces, and I definitely prefer the Creamy Dreamy since it has a richer white sauce base. I'm giving this 4 stars instead of 5 because I was disappointed to learn that they permanently switched the Bulgogi from ribeye to ground beef recently. I was told it's because ground beef soaks up the sauce better, but for me, the texture just isn't the same. Ribeye had a much better bite and felt like a higher-quality option. While the flavor is still there and some people may enjoy the change, I wish they had kept both choices available. It also seems like the switch to ground beef is more about cutting costs than maintaining quality for the customer, especially since the meal price appears to have stayed the same despite the use of a cheaper protein.

    I saw them advertised on social media and they are right by my parents house so I couldn't resist. Don't be alarmed by the unassuming parking lot and surrounding area! just go inside and give it a chance. You will not regret it! Their portions are quite large, with one bowl, lasting me two meals. Everything is fairly priced. You can expect to pay much more for pasta dishes at other establishments. I went for the creamy dreamy with bacon and pappadelle pasta. My dad loves spicy food so I also ordered him a spicy garlic spaghetti with two beef Mandus (Korean dumplings). The cashier was extremely friendly and welcoming. She was also informative of the menu. She warned me that they spicy garlic is not for the faint of heart. I went for it anyways because we love spicy food in my family. I got everything as takeout, but they do have 5 or so tables if you want to eat there. Came home and chowed down. My dad really loved his noodles, but he did say that they were quite spicy! I saw a sweat or two. Anyway, I am looking forward to coming back given that everything was well made, and generously priced.

    I've driven past this place a couple of times and finally got the chance to try it for dinner. The Bolognese sauce was my favorite, it was flavorful and packed with meat. The workers are very nice and pastas are made to order. There's a couple of tables inside for seating. ig: @cravingswithcat

    Love the concept of this build your own pasta! I've been wanting to try this place. We came on a Sunday night and it was pretty empty but after walking in, they got busy. They have plenty of tables inside if you choose to dine in. We were greeted by their friendly staff. We got the Creamy Dreamy with Shrimp (9/10) and Spaghetti Bolognese (8/10) It was very delicious. You can customize your order and choose from a variety of noodles and add toppings. All of their pastas are made fresh to order so there's a little bit of a wait but its worth it! Portion was good for the price. Overall, the food is delicious, staff is friendly, cant wait to go back!

From the moment we walked in, I felt like I had time-traveled straight to 1972... almost like dining on the set of The Godfather. The atmosphere is classic, warm, and authentic, and the customer service was outstanding--attentive without being overbearing. We started with a Caesar salad to share, and it was the real deal. You could actually taste the anchovy--rich, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. Easily enough for two. My wife ordered the spaghetti with meat sauce and said it was some of the best she's ever had. That's saying something. I had the chicken parmigiana, and it was spot on--perfectly cooked, tender, and absolutely mouthwatering. The side of spaghetti marinara paired with it couldn't have been better. The meal came with hot rolls served with olive oil and balsamic vinegar--simple and excellent. We also ordered the garlic cheese bread, and it was fantastic--fresh garlic, plenty of parmesan, perfectly done. Fair warning: it's a lot for two people, but it takes home beautifully. If you're in the mood for authentic Italian comfort food with a nostalgic, old-school vibe, this place delivers. We'll definitely be back.
