    My guest and I had lunch at Basta Pasta the Friday before Christmas and there was not a seat to be had except at the bar. The noise level was awful, as you can imagine. Service was for the most part poor and understaffed. There were 3 waiters trying to take care of a full house. It took us 2 hours to be waited on, asked what we wanted to order, get served, get our sodas/coffee, etc. My friend said her meal was delicious and mine was mediocre. My friend did not get her salad and bread until she asked for it. It was supposed to have come with her meal. This is the first time I have seen the service to be poor and attention to customers so bad.

    Fantastic linguini with clams (I chose olive oil) and broiled crab cake. The restaurant is amazing and the service superb!

    Everything about the place was terrific. The only negative I had was that when I made the reservation, I asked for a wheelchair accessible table. Instead, they stuck us at a table that was not at all easy to get to

    Great wait staff. Food was plentiful and tasty. Is it anything amazing and highly unusual? No, but it's consistent and always good.

    Basta Pasta's lunch menu is very good with lots of choices. Our only complaint is the calamari was tough and not tasty. We did not eat much of it or take it home. Our entrees were just the opposite and we both ate almost everything on our plate. My friend had eggplant parmesan and I had a surf & turf salad that I thought was awesome.

    Server rang in the wrong side item and tried to charged us for it. Took a little bit of arguing to take it off. Did not offer or receive birthday dessert.
