Catering too! – The food is great and affordable- no question. But what's really impressive is their catering. Great choices, large portions, and again- AFFORDABLE. They are always professional and the service is noteworthy. Take advantage of it!

MULTIPLE HUMAN HAIRS IN PASTA!! – We decided to get take out from here based on a friends recommendation, we each got the Farfalle Pollo as takeout. While we were eating, each of us noticed at least 5-6 short black human hairs in the pasta, DISGUSTING! Both of us wanted to toss our lunch. We called them back and they offered us the same pasta again if we came back which we promptly turned down, who wants to eat at a place that lets hair in its food, not just one but 5+ hairs in EACH dish. Horrible, we would never recommend t... read more

Great Food Terrible Loyal Customer Service – Four eight years or so we have been a loyal customer to pasta bowl eating in, carry out and delivery. Today we were told that even though we were in the system and a regular customer the fact that our address was 3430 and not 3400 we could not get delivery. It is funny that a store in a depressed economy is able to refuse customers? Even after speaking with two of the managers and offering to walk to the corner they would not delivery to us. As we have a new baby it makes it harde... read more

Harrassing Wait Staff!!!!!!!! – Hello All, A few co-workers and I had the worst humiliation ever at the Pasta Bowl. After our meal, a waiter rushed behind us, complaining about his tip!!!! He demanded more money in front of other customers and his fellow co-workers! If you do decide on eating at the Pasta Bowl, be prepared to be confronted about the tip you leave behind! No joke!

Great Food, Great Price – I've been here several times and I've never been disappointed. They've recently updated some of their menu, and added a couple of their most popular specials to the regular menu. I was there with my girlfriend and we had a great time. I had the Gnocchi, and she had their version of Mac 'n Cheese. Both were great! Even though the place was really busy, our server Jeff took care of us and got us fed quickly. He was extremely knowledgable about the food as well. Great place for a casual night out!

great food, good deal – If you're craving really fresh and fast Italian, this is the place! You can see you're food prepared in their open kitchen and it's ready in no time. PB even has good for you options with delicious oil free sauces and whole wheat pasta options. My husband and I love this place. Where else in Lincoln Park can you get a bottle of wine and two great Italian dishes for about $30--incredible! Also great for take out.

Fresh pasta and sandwiches at cheap prices make this a favorite for young Lincoln Parkers. – In Short The long, skinny room has colorful decor, with window tables up front, a bar that faces the bustling kitchen, and open space near the back. Shareable appetizers include bruschetta, and spinach salad topped with goat cheese, crumbled bacon, mushrooms and a light dressing. Pasta is the star of the menu, with abundant portions and a number of standout choices: Linguini pesto is a favorite, chock-full of whole pine nuts.

too good – TPB features easily the best alfredo in the city (imagine: REAL parmesan!), friendly/engaging staff, and good prices. I went there a few weeks ago, by myself, gorged myself on alfredo and pinot grigio, and then had a few beers at The Other Side. By the time I left, I felt like I was best friends with the entire staff, I had dropped so little money and I had my leftovers to look forward to. Top 5 best places in the city.
