| - Despite my experience with long waits at the restaurant, especially on weekend nights, my significant other and I decided to give it a try this evening. Much to our delight, the waiting area was not overrun with guests. We waited less than ten minutes for a desirable booth. We enjoyed a veritable feast for less than $50 plus gratuity, and with plenty of leftovers: a Samuel Adams seasonal draft beer, a Yuengling beer, an order of french fries, fried zucchini, a gigantic 16-slice Sicilian meatball pizza, and a most artistically-presented slice of apple caramel walnut cake. Everything was delicious. My lady is not a sweets eater, but she could not resist the cake. The service from Holly was pleasant and efficient. We have been to a lot of good restaurants in our nearly eight-month courtship. Pasta Too is at the top of both of our lists and we cannot wait to return! Bravo, bravo! Update: I dined here two consecutive nights: Saturday, 18 November 2017 and Sunday the 19th. I felt victorious when I arrived a little after 8:00 p. m. on the 18th and had no wait for a booth! The food was delicious as always and Catherine provided superior service. The following night, I arrived at 5:20 and was told that there would be a 30-minute wait. That developed into almost 45 minutes of wasted time and misery in the waiting area, not acceptable when the party is hungry. It took an inordinately long period of time to receive bread once we were seated. It was not server Leslie's fault: she was charming and excellent. The restaurant's refusal to accept reservations or even phone-ahead seating makes it difficult to want to return despite the great food and generally reasonable prices. Unlike my preceding experience, both hostesses were friendly on these visits.
