    Dinner at Pastabillities is always a treat. The service is excellent as is the food! We always have a wonderful experience at this restaurant. The only negative I can say is that is is always difficult to get reservations...that's because the restaurant is so popular. We always make plans at least two weeks out to get times we want.

    Overall was very good. Went with my wife for her birthday. We shared Antipasto, and she had short rib - i had linguine bolognese. Tiramisu for desert. Having dined all over the country - this was well done. Service was excellent as well.

    The food here is incredible. If you are visiting Syracuse it is the one place you definitely want to eat . The food is creative and delicious . I purchase their Hot Oil online all the time because I can’t get to Syracuse as much as I would like .

    This is by far the best Italian restaurant in the area; everything is delicious but the homemade pasta is amazing. Love the ability to now make a reservation as in the past this place has been standing room only.

    This was our second visit to Pastabilities. My son was so excited to return. Our waitress was wonderful, very kind and very attentive, but we had to wait over an hour for our food. My kids and I enjoyed our food, (I had the zucchini lasagna which was absolutely delicious)but my husband said his pesto was pretty bland. We originally had reservations to return next month when we are visiting my son for parents weekend at SU, but I cancelled them because this recent visit was pretty disappointing.
