"We tried several different pasta dishes the other day. The take-out containers were not marked and identified. Flavors were unremarkable and the portions are really small, especially considering the substantial price. Let 's be real: pasta (and pizza) is peasant food and there 's nothing expensive about making it. We haven 't tried their pizza (which may be great for all I know), but if you want good pasta and decent-sized servings . . . call your nonna. Quando niente va bene, chiama la Nonna. The food will taste better, she 'll be happy to see you, and you 'll need a nap afterwards because you 'll be so full. ADDENDUM: The owner was kind enough to reply. I understand these are hard times for restaurants (and everyone else) and food is definitely not cheap. But a 6 ounce portion? There have been other complaints, even on these reviews. Perhaps the problem is that in America pasta isn 't often treated simply as the primi piatti, one of many courses in a traditional dinner. Here diners frequently expect the pasta to be the meal itself, thus a 6 ounce portion is enough to feed, perhaps, a sparrow. LOL. I 'm not saying that this restaurant is a bad place : it is not. But it is disappointing."
