Pasta Restaurants near Newport Beach, CA

“Wonderful family owned place! The most authentic Italian restaurant outside of Italy. At Il Farro food is prepared with attention and real LOVE. Everything from the appetizers to dessert were perfect. Every dish is made with true italian fresh and natural ingredients and is made by traditional recipes. The talented chef M. makes pastas and pizzas daily and they taste amazing. Also the house wine is a good selection. I suggest you to have their own valuable wine. Il Farro has a great management and staff too. We loved interacting with customers and guys who work in, they became like family for us. The qualified employees are friendly helpful and the restaurant is always clean. They do have enough seats and limited outdoor seating, but get a reservation in advance to make sure you have a place.Hands off, this is the best place to gather with friends or family! It has our ❤️s. We loved it.“

“There’s no way you could give this less than 5 stars. ✨ I ordered the lamb, the spaghetti bolognese, and a salad.. I’m SHOCKED at the spaghetti. It’s incredible and it’s unlike any spaghetti I’ve had. Ever. I’m so heartbroken because I finished the lamb—and not can’t have any of the spaghetti because I’m full.. I’ll have to wait until tomorrow. I’m in LOVE THOUGH. What makes this more interesting is that when I ordered over the phone and the person taking my order sounded intrigued.. excited; thrilled maybe—they KNEW I was in for the ride of my life.“

“The gold standard is All'Antico Vinaio.
They are close but something is missing.
Instead of French brie,use Italian Stracciatella cheese
The focaccia is a bit on the dry rustic side.
Still delicious, but room for improvement in quality of ingredients“

“Mouthwatering and delicious food!!“

“We drove by and saw this place recently and had to come back later that night to get dinner. Now we get takeout here nearly every week. It's one of our favorite local restaurants that we've discovered recently.

The prices are very reasonable for satisfying portions. The food is always delicious, and we've tried several dishes. Everything tastes fresh and is hot even when we had a 15 minute drive home. The garlic ciabatta bread is great to dip in any leftover sauce, or even by itself.

My partner loves the Wow Spaghetti and the Bulgogi Pasta. My current favorites are the Bulgogi Cream penne and the Shrimp and Crab Ravioli in Rose Vodka sauce. We love that you can add mushrooms and/or spinach for a small upcharge. You really can't go wrong here. The inside is also very clean and the staff is super nice. Love this place!“

“Their food is just so delicious and great. Ate there a couple of times! No regrets!“

“We came in and got about eight slices of pizza. All different of course. I think it was like six or eight bucks per slice. It’s right next to the beach so everything is expensive that’s just how it goes. They were fast and efficient. The pizza was OK.“
