Pastini - Eugene

The food here is worth the money !! Very Very good!

Ive never eaten in the restaurant due to COVID, so I can only speak for their delivery. The food holds up which isnt always the case for alfredo sauce. Im not usually a fan of cracked black better but it really works here. The chicken is always tender.

First the silverware was stained, we asked for a new one and the server brought the same ones. Secondly we were rushed with the check and then we noticed that the soda refill cup had lemon pulp inside. How to tell that this cup was already used? Food was bland and not Italian at all.Food: 1/5

Decided to try this place out based on my brother's suggestion and word of mouth, but the place did not feel very Italian. I could be biased since I've been used to going to Olive Garden for Italian, but the way the place appeared looked more like I was going into a bistro or cafe.Our server/waitress didn't seem like they were enjoying the day, and that attitude was washed down on us and made feel a little uncomfortable. The menu options seemed more vegan/vegetarian and lacked enough interest, so I just went for the basic choice.About twenty minutes in and we didn't even get our water until less than five minutes before our food arrived. I tried to get the attention of our waitress or somebody, but nobody bothered. Even the utensils still had food residue on them, which started making me lose my appetite more and more.For an Italian restaurant like this, I did not feel welcome nor included, the atmosphere did not match very well, and the food was not well prepared and looked runny, failing to justify the expensive price for a small bowl of pasta. I hate to be the kind of person to give negative reviews, and maybe it was just one time, but unfortunately that one time was all it took to ruin the experience. You're better off making your own spaghetti or Alfredo.

It's a loud, crowded chain restaurant. They have some decent food and gf options for pasta. I'm not sure about cross contamination as I didn't have pasta. I really like their asparagus salad, but there's another chain's asparagus salad I like better, and I can't help but compare. I didn't realize that it was served with bread on the plate, so being gf that was a negative to me.
