Editor’s Note

Last updated 30 May 2026

Our take: Pasta Fresca Da Salvatore offers a long-standing Italian experience, with some patrons returning for decades for dishes like the Arrabiata Ravioli with Bacon.

The ability to customise pasta and sauce combinations is a definite draw, and the thin-crust pizzas are noted for their crispiness and generous toppings.

However, recent experiences highlight significant inconsistencies in service speed, with some diners reporting waits of up to an hour for food, even when the restaurant isn't at full capacity.

Portions, particularly for dishes like the $26 aglio olio, have been criticised as small, leading to questions about value for money.

The $40 swordfish dish has also been called out for being overcooked.

We think this spot is best for those seeking a nostalgic Italian meal and who are not on a tight schedule or budget.

Be prepared for potentially long waits and consider ordering dishes known for consistency, like the ravioli.

It's a place for a leisurely meal, not a quick bite.

What customers say

Pasta Fresca Da Salvatore receives mixed reviews, with long-standing customers praising the consistent quality of dishes like the arrabiata ravioli and thin-crust pizza.

However, newer experiences highlight significant issues with slow service, particularly long wait times for food, and concerns about small portion sizes for the price, especially for dishes like the $26 aglio olio and $40 swordfish.

While some find it a cozy spot, others feel it's overpriced and not suitable for budget-conscious diners.

Horrible experience. Waited almost 1hr for the first salad dish to come. Don't order their seafood, they probably had to defrost or head out to catch for them. The revamped menu does nothing to enhanc…

Always a good time here. I have been ordering the same arrabiata ravioli with bacon for maybe 25 to 30 years and it is still my fav dish here. Better than the ones I had in Italy!

portion is horrendous. A 26 dollar aglio olio without any ingredients, just pasta. Food is average in taste but the portion is miniature. Took 25 minutes for the food to be served, and 5 minutes to fi…

This is my first visit in years. The pasta is still good, u can choose from a wide variety of pasta to go with the sauce of your choice, and that is always welcomed. Though I do think that it is a bit…
