Pastaza - Roanoke

This little restaurant is a hidden gem! If you want the tastes and flavors of a top rated high end sit down Italian restaurant but with a good quick lunch/dinner vibe this place is it! We came here with a good sized crowd on the weekend for lunch. The owners were very kind, helpful and service was amazing. Food was delicious we had various dishes but ones that stood out were calamari for a starter. I had the pesto basil sauce cavatapi pasta and chicken. Others had lobster ravioli and it was delicious. Most entrees come with super soft delicious freshly baked bread from the kitchen. Definitely on my favorites for the Keller/trophy club area! Thank you guys I didn’t expect the food to be this good for a place that had a quick in and out vibe. Be aware the portions are huge, and the pizza is very large!Kid-friendliness: Kids sized portions and options

Great place for lunch! Great quality food and very nice staff. I would recommend this place! Easy to order and food came out quick!

The food is ordered at a counter and then brought to your table. The staff was friendly. The food was good. We got a couple pizzas and an appetizer. I was confused why the drinks state Italian tea and soda when it appeared to be all normal drinks. The tables are not very comfortable.

So many choices! I like how they give you options to select from. The pasta was a little over cooked for me but the alfredo sauce was delicious. Very creamy with a hint of garlic. The bread was also freshly made and good. I really wanted to like the pizza but it was just too greasy for me and the dough was dry. I would go back for the pasta! Inside it's very clean and open.

I love stopping in even if it's just for a pick up. I ordered on the App slice while my mini me was in mathnasium. I have eaten here several times before but I hadn't tried the arancini yet. I talked to the nicest gentleman at the counter. I had arancini in Sicily but he said this is more like northern Italy. It's amazing. Pesto, mozzarella surrounded by rice and fried. So crispy, melty and yummy. The tomato sauces was a great dip. I ordered lobster ravioli with Alfredo sauce, a cheese pizza as well for the family. It was all ready in less that 25 minutes. My dish is my new favorite, Gnocchi, shrimp, cherry tomatoes, and spinach in the roasted red pepper sauce. It's got all the flavors I love with just the right amount of kick to it. I love getting to pick different sauces each time I am there but this one is my favorite. We will see you guys again soon like probably Monday lol!
