Pasta And… The most reliably tasty place I know. We’ve been going since they had five or six tables, basically since they opened. It’s a fabulous place for dinner and the service is friendly and personalized. I only come in once a year or so because I can only get there when I visit here from Portland. Despite my infrequent visits, they recognize us and greet us warmly. The food is fantastic and they are willing to make some adjustments to accommodate us being vegetarian. This one goes to eleven.

Great overall dining experience! The food was excellent, from the appetizers to the desserts. The drinks were also well prepared. Very interesting, fresh, and with new ideas to blend Japanese and Peruvian cuisine. I would recommend and will certainly be returning.

Our server Sara was very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. However, the hostess name Uniqua was extremely rude, unprofessional and unwelcoming. The food was good, the service was great, the hostess wasn’t.
