Delicious pasta, generous portions, free bread! Pictured below is an arancini my partner and I shared.

Some of the best Italian food I've ever had! I feel like I am back in NY with the taste, while tucked away in the heart of Amherst.
Also the service is second to none. We felt right at home at Pasta E Basta. -Steven

Writing a 5 start review to recognize and celebrate good old fashioned good food, the kind where you can taste the ingredients. The create your own pasta combination was perfect for everyone. Thank you!

This place is my favorite restaurant! My wife and I come here for special occasions when we want our delicious Italian meals! Also I couldn’t forget the delicious home-made bread and oil for a complimentary starter!
Just ordered from door dash food came in very small portion then what would normally be severed in resturaunt.

Great place to celebrate and/or date night. Personally find the sweet and spicy alfredo pasta a little too sweet, but overall I would recommend to people who want to try something new and would not mind mild spice. Lasagna was mid, recommend their tomato cream sauce for sure. Focaccia was amazing when it’s fresh. (we asked for a fresh basket and it was so much better) Service is better last time I came, it is difficult to get served on the second floor, especially during crowded nights.

We were on our last day of a short vacation in the area and finally got to see my niece and kids. We wanted to have a meal together and her daughter, who is eight, suggested we eat there. We thought we were headed to a place that was similar to an Unos or something like that because an eight year old suggested it. EVERYTHING we ordered was spectacular! The Italian soda was flavorful and not too sweet, the meals were nicely portioned and were so fresh and flavorful, the bread and dipping sauce was divine (we had to stop eating it because we could’ve filled up on it). At the end they surprised us with complimentary desserts and that Lavender cake with lemon glaze was to die for! What was really appreciated is we had four kids with us 8 years old and under and they were still excited because we just left the festival that was in town and they all were so kind and patient with them. The owner was extremely welcoming to us as well. This is the place we’ll go to over and over again wherever we visit the area. Make sure you go to. You won’t be disappointed!

Terrible! My husband was so excited to try a new Italian restaurant. He got lasagna, and I got the chicken parmasean. It reminded us of chef boyardee. We will never eat at pasta e pasta again! We will stick to our usual authentic Italian spot in Keene NH, Papagallo's . It's delicious.

Incredibly consistent food. My partner and I first ate here over 10 years ago, and on a recent visit back to the area, we found the food was just as good or even better than back in 2014. A fantastic spot for a relaxed Italian dinner.

Meatball tasted like dog food and was the consistency of play Doug. The marinara sauce and ravioli tasted like canned chef boy r d , not warmed up and at, soup like, and taste was just off. Only good part was the bruschetta, bread, and water. Would not recommend( looking for actually good Italian go to Mulino’s)
Food was mad Gerb but lowk it was aight. Im hip to run it back in the future but only here for the vibes.

We had a great experience at Pasta E Pasta, their bread is delicious and the food is well balanced, enough for left overs. I ordered the grilled salmon with penne.

Some of the best pasta ive ever tasted. ten stars if i could give it. always come back here i promise you wont regrett..
Loved my meal, awesome staff, wonderful atmosphere. We arrived without a reservation, but they accommodated us with no more than a two minute wait on a very busy evening.
