I made reservations a week in advance. Once we got inside we were told to wait another 30mins to be seated. I was confused as to whats the point of reservations if we still have to wait and fit a dog fight to be seated down. It was such a disorganized restaurant. Servers were very disrespectful and the host was running around like a chicken with her head cut off. Once we got seated, which was 40mims after our reservation which at that point I had to beg them to give us a seat. We were given water and I requested the server if we can get straws but we never received them AT ALL. Food was very cold when we received it on the table. Drinks were ordered and we received it after we were done with dinner. The entire restaurant was very disorganized. It was my first time dining here and I won't ever dine here ever again. This will be one place I won't ever recommend to someone EVER. WORST EXPERIENCE I'VE EVER HAD. PLEASE GO TO OLIVE GARDEN AND THE FOOD WILL TASTE 1000X BETTER THAN THIS PLACE. THEY SHOULD BE PAYING ME TO EAT HERE. ALL MICROWAVE FOOD.

I’m not sure if the reservation system was down, so it could have been something bigger than what I saw, but the restaurant was overwhelmed and we waited a good hour past our reservation time. All the staff was kind and professional, but it was clear that things were not going well. Wrong food delivered, no check in, no water service (had to ask for water twice), etc. lovely restaurant and I’m sure that on other nights it’s a great place, but things didn’t go well across the board and it seemed too busy and chaotic for anyone to even notice or ask.

2nd time we have made reservations at 6pm for two and the chaos at the front entrance was like it was at the 1st reservations we made last year. At least five reservations around me at the cramped front entrance were for 6pm and there was nobody (hostess??) at the door to organize the chaos. Servers were whippin around and thru the crowd. 50 couples/families can't have 6pm reservations at the same time. The system is broken. Last year, we waited until 7:30 to be seated for a 6pm reservation. Yes, we waited 🙄 and finally got a table. Thought we'd give them one more chance this year because the food is good, but its not thAt good. So, we left and drove over to Thai Village in Pleasant Hill and had a wonderful Valentines Day dinner. Don't waste your time on reservations at Pasta Primavera, they have no reservation system, it means nothing. The wait is at least an hour, even WITH reservations. There's too many other good places to eat around here that do not waste your time. Terrible.

We really enjoyed our experience. Our server, Eva, was very professional and accommodating. We enjoyed the complimentary appetizer as well as our salads, entrees, Italian sodas and dessert. I appreciate that they have some good vegetarian options on the menu.

Per the restaurant employee, Open Table overbooked them by double and they didn’t even have our reservation. It was Christmas Eve. We had to find an alternative place to go with a party of 7 on Christmas Eve!!

We dined here on our way to the theatre in Walnut Creek. We like the salads, the Italian entrees and Italian sodas. They have efficient, expedient service.
