About the restaurant

Pastavino translates to pasta & wine, the quintessential Italian experience, drawing inspiration from the traditional trattorias & enotecas throughout Italy. Michelin Star Chef Josh Laurano's menu focuses on modern interpretations of familiar Italian flavors, house made pastas, focaccia & secondi. We pride ourselves on seasonality, using local ingredients, and allowing them to be the soul of the menu - Materia Prima.

If you do not see your desired time or party size please check RESY or call the restaurant directly . We do not put all tables online to allow for phone reservations and walk in's.

Please include all guests in your party including those who may be in strollers or high chairs.

While we love to celebrate life's special occasions with you, we kindly ask that you refrain from bringing balloons into our dining rooms.

We try our best to accomodate all requests and preferences, however tables located along the window are seated on a first come first served basis.

Fabulous Saturday night dinner with the family. We had the dry aged porterhouse for two and the wet aged bone in ribeye. Everything was cooked to our request: medium rare. Steaks were flavorful and tender. We enjoyed the cream spinach, steak fries and broccoli. Our waitstaff Danielle and Santiago were wonderful and attentive!
