Great pasta dishes, and try the focaccia the share as an appey.

The food is delicious and the service was very good. The room got when a large party sat down. All In all, the dinner was very good.

I was very pleased with the attentive and friendly staff.
The restaurant has a nice selection of pasta and sauces. The pasta was nicely cooked - slightly al dente. But, I found my pesto sauce was ok, not great.

We recently hosted a Sweet 16 party here, and it couldn’t have been a better experience! From the very beginning, Francesca (the owner and chef) made everything so easy. She personally helped us plan the menu and was so accommodating with all of our requests — it really took the stress out of planning.
The food was absolutely delicious! Every dish was fresh and full of flavor, and our guests couldn’t stop talking about how amazing everything was.
The staff was just as wonderful. Everyone was polite, attentive, and genuinely kind. Our party ended up going past the restaurant’s closing time, but the team was so patient and gracious, never making us feel rushed.
We’re so grateful to Francesca and her staff for helping make this celebration so special. I’d highly recommend this restaurant to anyone — whether you’re planning an event or just going out for a great meal. Our family will definitely be back soon!

Met friends for dinner and everything was delicious and uniquely prepared. We all enjoyed a great meal.

Cute restaurant that feels fresh and brings a hint of Italy to New Jersey. Loved that the food was served on mismatched plates that were all beautiful in their own right
I had dinner with my best friend here and it was such a great experience! All of the staff were so friendly and attentive. They thoroughly answered any questions I had and created a happy, family like environment. Great hospitality and I cannot wait to come back and try the pizzaccia!

So sad about the direction this restaurant is going in. Came here as a family after multiple rave reviews from my sister and mom during the first 6 months of opening. We were disappointed to find that the quality of their food has greatly declined since the beginning. As a family we each ordered a different pasta, and every single one was so bad we didn’t even bother to take home leftovers. They lacked seasoning, took ages to come out, and were genuinely terrible. Our bread was stale and hard, and the olive oil on the table couldn’t even soften it enough to be edible. My sister and I tried again today (2 months later) in a last ditch effort, hoping that our family’s recent experience was a fluke after months of great pasta. Once again, we were disappointed. The carbonara used to be creamy and made with real guanciale. What we were served today was grainy and unappealing with artificial cheese flavor and burnt pieces of bacon. The ragu (though we ordered pesto) was bland, ground meat thrown over pasta with a tomato sauce so nonexistent that the noodles were still white. The one saving grace — at least the pasta was cooked well.
Sadly, it’s safe to say we will not be back again. I agree, Pastiamo used to be good, but the quality of their food is not there anymore as they opt for cheaper ingredients that significantly affect the taste.

Pasta is pretty over priced for the portions they give. Got a cup of pasta for $18+ and was in shock. Can walk up to grocery store on the same strip and get same but bigger portions

One of my fave restaurants in Princeton (and I have high standards coming from living in Manhattan and Brooklyn!). I also LOVE that it’s family run and the owner is the head chef! You can tell a lot of care and passion goes behind every item on the menu. Thank you for putting your heart behind the food and experience.
Great service, amazing food!
