Food was good, once you figure out how it works, food was good. My husband said there were some graphic paintings in the bathroom and other suggestive decor, fortunately, kids didn't notice. Not the best place for kids. A little pricey for lunch.

This is on of my favorite restaurants in Syracuse. The spicy hot tomato oil, while not that spicy is very good with their outstanding bread. I also noticed that this restaurant has been featured on Diners, Drive-ins and Dives. The lunches are good too, however be prepared to wait a while.
We saw this restaurant on Diner's, Drive ins, and Dives and decided to go. We got there at 5:45 on a Friday evening and were told that there was a 45 minute wait. It was almost exactly 45 minutes later that we were seated. Our server was slow to get to our table and after we were served we rarely...

We were treated to a marvellous meal at this restaurant. The surroundings are great. It didn't seem too crowded or noisy. We had a reservation so there was no wait. Excellent friendly service from our waiter, who was patient and gave use plenty time to choose. He also gave us extensive advice when we asked. Portions were very generous and...

Nice location and atmosphere. I generally hate pasta places because it is so overpriced for pasta...which costs next to nothing! However, I had some of their homemade linguini which was awesome. I hate to sound like a broken record (like all other reviews), but the spicy tomato sauce really is ridiculously amazing. Will most certainly revisit!
Glad you were able to enjoy some of our homemade linguine! Please come back again to try some homemade fettuccine or other homemade pasta. If you feel the urge to have more Spicy Hot Tomato Oil and can't make it back to Syracuse, you can always purchase some at HotTom.com. We look forward to seeing you again!

Ok so they have a cool name, Pastabilities. They have a nice cozy decor. They even have good beer on tap and a a band play every so often. If I were to rate this place on decor and beer it would be a 4/5. However you come here for Italian food. When you name a place after pasta, you...

The whole place rocks! I went on a Wednesday and they had live music, the place was packed. No wonder, the food, the ambiance and the whole place was great! Mostly a young crowd but still upscale and professional.
Found this restaurant overall to be average. We walked in at 430 pm on a Friday night and were told rather bluntly by the manager, we don't seat for dinner until 5. Really?? Despite people sitting at the bar, I had to ask if the bar was open and if we could have a drink. Not the way to make...

Everything we ate here was amazing. From the wine to the Hot tomato oil and bread to the Duck Pizza. We were there on a very busy Saturday night and arrived early as they do not take reservations. We only had to wait about 10 minutes which wasn't bad. Our waitress was amazing and gave us a free second plate...
