Z Pastabar - Los Angeles

One of my favorite Italian takeout spots in LA. The flatbreads were my favorite dish, especially the barbecue chicken plate. Can't recommend enough!

Food was delicious !! So much easier than preparing … but was fresh and tasty . Portions were very generous. I had enough for lunch the next day. It is a favorite for me and my kids !

The dish I ordered had a lot of potential, but:-it was less than half the amount of pasta I was expecting for the price-it had about 5x too much salt. SO salty. I kept wavering between this is DELISCIOUS , and damn...should I put water in this? I ended up eating most of it on the garlic bread to tone down the salt.It was delicious, aside from that. I ordered penne with garlic, basil, and mushroom cream sauce (or whatever). Perfect flavors together, aside from the salt...which...I know I 've mentioned several times but damn! It was a lot!If the portion had been an actual adult-sized portion, I 'd definitely give this place another chance because it was yum.Too bad.

Surprise Treat The staff surprised us with a complimentary treat at the end of the meal, making us feel valued and appreciated.

My family and I absolutely love this meal. Everything was well seasoned and tasted great. Looking forward to ordering from here again.
