Food, service, ambiance, all 11/10 at this spot. Authentic quality pasta in west loop and such a beautiful interior and patio. The seafood pasta and cacio e pepe were delicious and the burrata and homemade focaccia are must orders, along with the sea bass ceviche! Will definitely be back this summer.

Pasta Veneta specializes in fresh handmade pasta that will knock your socks off! I also seriously enjoyed their stracciatella with olive tapenade and calamari. My fave dish of the night was the truffle cream spaghetti with caviar and chives. That dish was insanely creamy and indulgent! Rivaling that dish, I really loved how perfectly seared the scallops dish was! I definitely recommend going the next time you’re in the mood for fresh pasta! The service was very kind and quick and the ambiance…

I had a great evening trying out a good portion of the offerings at Pasta Veneta. The drinks were great, and the service was fantastic. I definitely recommend the croquettes and the baked goat cheese to start. I ordered the gnocchi with short rib ragu and was blown away! I don’t normally enjoy gnocchi, but something told me I’d like this one. I tried my friend’s dishes as well, and can easily say the carbonara is the best I’ve ever tasted. We shared four wonderful desserts, but the chef…

Service is always incredible and I can't describe how good the pasta is. I always go back to the gnocchi with parmesan and mushrooms. It's so simple but the pasta is made fresh and the dish is incredible. They also have quite the wine menu if you're into that. I cannot recommend this place enough if you're in the area.

Pasta Veneta was a true Italian restaurant. It wasn’t too loud and the service was exceptional. We started off with the Bruschetta, which was pretty good. The Ravioli with Lobster and Gnocchi Mushroom were to die for. Both were some of my favorite and most tasteful Italian dishes I’ve had in Chicago. Do yourself a favor and go to dinner here. Will definitely be going back for dinner again.
