Pasta Restaurants near Palo Alto, CA

“Súper Delicious, I recommend it to all my friends !“

“I discovered the place by accident. I was next door inside Michaels having some art pieces custom framed when I decided to look for a place to stop by to eat. I was starving. I was craving for pasta. And thats how I got to discover this place. I ordered the chicken fettucine alfredo. Love the dish with its chunky chicken pieces and al dente pasta. The complimentary cheese sticks with that cheese pimiento cheese spread was a delightful surprise. Next time Ill check their lasagna and clam chowder. I heard their clam chowder is as good as Boulins in San Francisco. I dont have to make a drive to the city to enjoy a good bowl of chowder. The lasagna looks so rich as well as their chopino. Im definitely comjng back.“

“Solid 5 stars and we cannot believe took us years to notice this gem of a restaurant so close to our home. We are family of six who are quite picky eaters of Italian food. Now we noticed this place we find ourselves dining in or getting take-away at least once a week.

One word: value! Second word: tasty! Their portion sizes on many entrees are so generous as to feed two adults, plus their complimentary salad (with many entrees) is unusually large for a side salad

Highly recommended:
Fettuccine Veneziana: if you find the cream sauce too heavy, try our trick to sub in angel hair pasta and Pomodori sauce, which turns this into a light Italian pasta dish you would find (priced a third higher) at a restaurant like Maggiano's. Nearly similar taste to seafood pasta dishes we've had along Cinque Terre ( Italian Riviera coast). Or also very good: salmon over angle hair with the Pomodori sauce.

Lasagna: fantastic !
Side of two meatballs: only $3 - are you kidding? Some of the best meatballs ever to meet my taste buds
Minestrone soup: fantastic !
Chicken piccata: our daughter loves their version of this dish.
Tiramisu: very good

NOTE: we haven't had a chance to try many items on their menu so if not listed above don't assume item is not good.

Skip it:
Linguine de Mare: you will like this only if you are OK with a sauce that is heavy tomato base that's lacking seafood flavor. It does not compare well to Maggiano's (admittedly higher priced $37) version.“

“Kasa has beautiful restaurants in the Bay Area with a heart. The decor is gorgeous with pretty details sprinkled around. For example the bench outside the Redwood City restaurant is so pretty and show cases the colors and designs of India. The food itself is very comforting. It is inspired by the recipes of the founder's grandmother and it is delicious. I love the chai there and love that they have a chai kit. They also have a location in Castro, San Francisco with its own unique decor and very friendly staff. Thank you Kasa for sharing your food and beauty with the Bay Area.“
