overall dissapointment – I went in to Pastini with my two daughters the other night and came out feeling very dissapointed with both the service, and the food. None of our pastas were cooked correctly and the sauces were bland. The service was not up to parr either; my waitress seemed a bit edgy. I had been into the 23rd location of Pastini two other times, and both those times were just O.K. Nothing to rave about.

"Step AWAY from the CHAIN RESTAURANT!"... and eat at Pastini's!! – Pastini's is my favorite restaurant in the Lloyd district............This is where to go when you want fabulous Italian cooking and a comfortable casual atmosphere. The recipies are delicious... many great dishes to choose from. I absolutely LOVE the bread... it's just perfect. If it's not lunch time (or maybe if it is!!), don't forget a glass of Chianti. If you care about price then you have nothing to worry about here. Well done Pastini's! 

Business response:

We appreciate and value all of the feedback we receive from customers. Thank you!

Love the food! – My husband and I love Pastinis. We have never had a bad meal or bad service at any of the 4 locations since we started dining there years ago. I highly recommend the Tortellini Gorgonzola, Spaghetti Carbonara (without peas) & the Fettucine Alfredo. Their desserts are very simple but very good. I also love the soups, my favorite, Roasted Red Pepper Potato Gorgonzola.

No airconditioning and horrible service – I went there with some friends a few weeks ago and it was almost 100 outside and they had no airconditioning. HUGE DISSAPOINTMENT. And to top it off, our waitress only visited us once with water, so we were sweating the whole dinner! And to top it off, the portion sizes were way smaller then the ones at Bridgeport, almost kid size. So all in all, I dont reccomend this location at all.

Still pumping out soulful pasta for appreciative Irvingtonites and the too-beat-to-cook white-collar crowd. – In Short The bustling dining room with high ceilings, vintage Italian ad posters and a partially open kitchen has all the elements of a neighborhood favorite. Starters include a bountiful antipasto platter stacked with salamis and cheeses or grilled veggies. A long list of pastas is split between traditional dishes like the rigatoni with beefy bolognese and more creative bowls like the delectable corkscrew pasta with... read more

Good, cheap Italian – I've been going to Pastini's since it opened and it has been one of my favorites since. I think any comparison of Pastini's to Olive Garden is completely off base. Pastini's doesn't overwhelm you with sauce, and feels much more like a home cooked meal. I agree that the bread is not so great, so I think it's good that they don't serve a whole basket of it. I'd rather pay less for my meal than have that thrown in.

not too much, not too little – The portions are just right, I walk away thoroughly satisfied, but not overwhelmed. I am especially pleased with the fettuccine alfredo.. it's creamy and has moisture; whereas other places focus on just the creamy part which results in something dry and clumpy. I love all their ziti dishes~!!

Pastini=Olive Garden – Although the service was very friendly and the restaurant was clean, it just reminded me too much of the Olive Garden. The servings were adequate at best and the food was good, but nothing about the standard Italian food that could served from Sandy to Canby. A good deal for the price and the take out service is great when your tired and hungry.

A "must try" in NE Portland – I've been here several times, the food is always wonderful, they have all of the normal Italian dishes, and some other interesting combinations as well. It is a good family place, with the noise, you do not have to worry about kids talking to loud. It could be good for groups if you call ahead. Downside, it is usually crowded, but do you really want to go to a restaurant that is always empty?Parking is not very good.
