“ I was walking to a different restaurant when I saw Pastiamo and it smelled so good I decided to go to this restaurant instead. I had a Margherita pizza and the Rigatoni with Marinara and meatballs. The dont over complicate the pasta or pizza and keep it traditional! This by far was one of the best pasta dishes and pizzas I have ever had and will definitely be coming back! ”
“ Ive eaten at Pastiamo a dozen or so times and its always amazing. I often take out but I love to dine in because their outdoor patio space is beautiful. Their pizzas are amazing and you should definitely try their lasagna. ”
“ Authentic AND affordable homemade pasta in SD? One of a kind hidden gem. Get any combination, you wont be disappointed. Parpadelle Bolognese is great first try though. Takes me back to my semester abroad its that good. ”
“ Yummmmoooo! I love this place. I always pick pasta up and make it at home but tonight we came in ate here for the first time. Great experience the people that work here are so lovely and theres cute little fairy light jars on each table. A really nice casual vibe for a Sunday night Quick dinner out. ”
“ Ordered a Pesto Caprecce with parmesan, Bolognese Rigatoni no parmesan, and a Margherita Pizza. Both pasta serving sizes are light so adding on a side like the pizza is recommended. The Pesto tastes very good and a lot of basil flavor comes through The Caprecce pasta is not too dense but is also very thick and firm to eat not only is it visually appealing but also pairs well with the pesto. The Bolognese Rigatoni has a similar quality of pasta to the Caprecce, the Bolognese part tastes very hearty with visible pieces of meat. The Margherita Pizza is a very simple thin crust pizza with lots of delicious tomato sauce and mozzarella cheese. If youre looking for a small addon side, this pizza is a good pick. There is outdoor shaded seating in the adjacent space but beware if the weather calls for rain. Parking can be a challenge as this is PB so consider looking for parking as you begin approaching the restaurant. There are a few spots in front of the restaurant but they tend to fill up quickly when it gets busy. ”
