Pizza & Pasta Express Reviews
I normally don’t like to come on and just give negative feedback, so I’ll start with the positives.
We ordered takeout a week ago from Pizza and Pasta express—the calzone was pretty good. The seasoning on the crust is great! It could have used some more sauce but overall we were satisfied with the calzone.
However, when it came to our sandwiches we were really disappointed. We paid $9 for a ham and cheese that had barely any ham on it (if I can post photos I...read full review
We ate here for my daughters birthday and we were super happy! I thought the whole train theme of the restaurant was so cool & the kids loved the train table they had for them to play with. The pizza was probably the best pizza I’ve had in a very long time! Super good & friendly staff. Definitely want to go back!
We waited and waited for food that was barely above room temperature except for the 2 year old's food that was blazing hot. Everything came in to-go containers because they "accidentally" forgot we were dining in. There was no light to be found in the bathroom. And we spent $37 for the privilege of this experience. Never again. Everything was very dingy and dirty looking.

Pizza & Pasta Express is a cozy, hometown pizzeria that offers delicious hand-tossed pizza and garlic cheese bread. The staff, consisting of friendly teens, provide exceptional service and create a welcoming atmosphere. The restaurant features a train-themed decor, making it kid-friendly with games available, including a fun train table and a train that travels around the ceiling. Customers often mention that the place is usually calm with not many people, making it a peaceful spot to enjoy good food. Parking is limited but generally sufficient. Many visitors recommend trying the pizza, especially the Chicken Alfredo pizza, which is considered the best in the area, and they also enjoy the double-decker as a specialty item. The dining experience is enjoyable, with food coming out quickly and at reasonable prices. A large supreme pizza, chef salad, and a fountain drink can be had for under $40, including tip. However, not all menu items meet expectations; for example, while the lasagna may appear larger, it can be mostly sauce and cheese, resembling more of a soup with little pasta.
