My partner and I had a wonderful dinner on Friday night, August 25th. Unfortunately there was another couple there that night who made a scene because of the BYOB policy. The policy is posted on the front door before entering. The waiter reminded them of the policy and then they threw a fit, spoke down to the staff asking to speak to a manager and then the owner. They also threatened to leave a bad review. I think it’s horrible for someone to try to hurt a small business because they didn’t get their way. The staff was extremely professional and polite throughout the incident and apologized to my partner and I for witnessing the scene. The restaurant has nothing to apologize for. Their service and food is always fantastic!

I love this place, Always order the Vongole to go which is always amazing. On August 25th I walked in and was waiting for my order when I saw a customer threaten them with a bad review over wanting to bring 2 bottles of wine for 2 people and only buy 1 pasta. The customer was extremely disrespectful and the staff was polite. They later apologized to me about having to listen to the whole situation where they explained what was going on. Keep this gem alive, huge props to the staff for keeping their cool. Compliments to the Chef! Food is always great.

Consistently one of the best Italian meals my wife and I have ever had. Over and over their pesto, rigatoni alla grassa, meatballs, and more knock it out of the park. It’s especially great for the price here! Love this place!

A neighborhood charm! Chef Daniel was so kind and he let us eat in although they only do take out during lunch. We had calamari, Cesar salad and creamy pasta – so fresh and yummy. He prepared the dressing from scratch and it tasted so good. The pasta dish was filled with mushrooms, ham and onions. The price is very reasonable. Will definitely come back again!

Very nice, small place on Brlmont, just east of Damen. We were a party of four…and the only oatrons in the restaurant. It was a Thursday night, but I expected a few more people. Calamari was good, though the plate looked a bit sad. My three meat ravioli was quite nice. BYOB, so be prepared.

We have been looking forward to trying Pasta al Gusto. This past week we ordered through Door Dash. We tried the Insalata Di Burrata, Farfalle Aurora, Rigatoni alla Grassa and Cannoli. It was all Delicious!!! Can’t wait for the next time. Dining in will be nice, have walked by multiple times, cool space.

Pasta Al Gusto is a great place for an intimate meal. And if you want to make it more romantic, there are candles on the table that can be lit. The owner was very accommodating and personable. On the food, it was like angels dancing on the tongue. From the appetizers to the entree, everything was delicious. All in all, I give it a 10 out of 10
