Pastamore is consistently described as a casual, bright spot delivering fresh pasta and homemade sauces at good value, with many reviews noting large portions of bread and a BYOW option and a friendly, quick counter service. Standout dishes like Fusili Gigi and the gluten free pasta are highlighted, and several reviewers say the noodles are cooked al dente and the sauces are flavorful and varied. However, experiences vary, with some patrons reporting reduced portions lately, watery sauces, bland pesto, or overcooked pasta, and others noting missing meatballs or sausage despite orders and occasional inconsistent service when the owners are not present. The dining vibe is described as cafeteria style by some, though the place is frequently praised for its casual, family friendly atmosphere, cleanliness, and easy takeout or quick lunch options. Overall, the reviews present Pastamore as a popular pasta destination in the West Island, valued for its fresh pasta, range of sauces, and affordable prices, while reminding potential visitors that results can differ by day and dish.
A west Island institution! There pasta, sauces, arancinis etc are very good. Service is also quick. If you're in a rush you can also grab & go from a large variety of their pasta, which is made in-house. They even offer catering for any occasions. I've ordered & eating there several times & shall continue to do so.
Great pasta for a fast food set-up. It is all hand made at the store. disappointed since I asked for 2 hot sauce & cheese, & THEY CHARGED ME MONEY. THIS IS HOW YOU LOOSE CUSTOMER
Thickest chewiest penne pasta ever, this was a mess. It looked like when a kid makes pasta from Play-Doh. Even after paying for extra sauce, it was still just all doughy taste & not much else .
Went with friends. Ate in. Order food at counter & bring your food to your seat that you chose. Ordered a trio with a drink, got a Ceasar salad - great dressing (was surprised). Ordered the Daniella sauce with cheese tortellini-was great! Huge portions, came with bread & butter. Plates were plastic, utensils were metal. It was after lunch hour so it wasn't busy when we went. Staff were friendly & quick with service. My friend ordered a spicy rose sauce with fettuccini- the noodles were very soft - zero texture so overcooked & the sauce was subpar- the pancetta were more like crumbs in the sauce. My other friend got gnocchi (she liked it- I'm not a fan of gnocchi so I didn't like it) with a garlic oil sauce- it smelled great but tasted ok. This is all preference, obviously I loved what I chose. You can pick the type of noodle you want & the sauce to pair it with! Prices are good, costs me $25 for a huge plate of pasta, bread, butter, a drink & a good portion of salad. Without the combo it would have been about $16 (pasta & bread). Would come here again, quick friendly service, clean environment, quiet, good affordable food.

They catered multiple meals for my film set & everyone loved the food!! They had vegetarian & gluten-free options for everyone. They even provided us with plates, napkins, serving utensils & wooden cutlery! The cast & crew were raving about Pastamore!!! 🎬❤️🍝
Absolutely fantastic food, with GLUTEN-FREE OPTIONS TOO!! Safe for celiac! This is 100% my go-to pasta place in the West Island & is so worth coming to DDO for. Amazing catering too service too.
Final found a great pasta restaurant in the west Island. Nothing fancy, but the pasta & arancinis are great. This place is clean & the people that work there are also very kind.
Love this place! Staff is always so friendly, place is always very clean, & the food is always delicious. The pasta is made fresh, if you want authentic Italian food, definitely worth coming here! Special shoutout to the owner Vince :)
Huge thanks to the owner Vince, waitor James & the entire Pastamore team for making my daughter's second birthday unforgettable! Vince was very accommodating in tailoring our menu to our needs & party time. Our family could not stop raving about the delicious food & beautiful atmosphere. Additionally, he let us have Cinderella make a surprise visit which was so special to my daughter & family. I know our paths will cross again for future events & thanks again for everything!!
I'd like to add an update Visited for the second time. What an awesome place, & they had a very young chef helping the owner, & he was soooo good. What I love a lot about this place is that the owner is very nice & not only the food is awesome but you are always treated VIP. Super delicious pasta. Tried their gnocchi with rosé spicy sauce, their Alfredo pene chicken, & their meat ball sandwich. The gnocchi was the best in the for me, & the sandwich was pretty good too. They have a very authentic pasta, & you can also buy their pasta dry
Too expensive for what you get, the portions are just right for good eaters. Pasta good but cheaply done, better at Mike's atleast the ingredients are better tasting but everyone taste is different,
No next time for me.
Sorry guys just improve your products.
Greetings
