We have been to Da Guido La Pasta several times. This time I had the Ravioli Wagyu and my wife had the Gnocchi alla Genovese. Both were fantastic! I always have to "force" myself to try and order something different from the last time since whatever I had the last time was awesomely delicious. And, each time, when I choose something new, it also is awesomely delicious. I have never had a meal there that wasn't some of the best Italian food I have ever eaten. Order anything on the menu. You won't go wrong. The staff are very attentive, friendly and helpful without "hovering". We will be back again, and again I will try to order something different than I have had before.

The carbonara pasta was on the salty side. I'd ask for less salt next time

Da Guido has a simple menu. Simple doesn’t always mean easy. The Carbonara had, I think, guanciale, but it was undercooked and chewy. The pasta was high quality but well past al dente. The pasta for the fettuccine gamberi was lower quality but overcooked as well As I said simple doesn’t mean easy. Service and ambience were delightful so just a little more precision and this could be top notch.
