Another anniversary dinner at Pastas, and it didn’t fail. Caleb at the bar is our go to, and is always top notch! From letting him pick our dessert, to casual chats, we won’t go to anyone else! Thanks for making our night just a bit more special! 5+ stars, always!

My husband and I dined at Pastabilities in Syracuse last night, and it was outstanding from start to finish!
We began with warm, fresh bread and a dipping sauce unlike anything I’ve had before—rich with crushed tomatoes, garlic, olive oil, and other flavorful ingredients. It set the tone perfectly. For appetizers, we tried the Burrata with chutney over crostini, which was absolutely delicious.
The highlight of the night was the lasagna—hands down the best I’ve ever had! Perfectly layered, rich, and full of flavor. Our server, Lily, was a delight—attentive, friendly, and made the whole experience even better.
The atmosphere is cute, trendy, and welcoming. I also love that the restaurant is female-owned by a mother and her two daughters—it’s inspiring to see such passion and talent come through in both the food and the vibe of the place.
I would highly recommend Possibilities to anyone looking for an exceptional dining experience in Syracuse. We can’t wait to go back!

Let me start by saying I came in hungry and left spiritually fulfilled. I ordered one plate of pasta... then another... then a third, because apparently I’m no longer bound by the laws of moderation or dignity.
The food? Life-altering. I took one bite and suddenly I was barefoot in an Italian village I’ve never been to, hanging laundry next to a nonna who whispered, “Mangia, bella.” I don’t even speak Italian, but I understood her in my soul. Each forkful unlocked generational memories that weren’t even mine. At one point, I swear I saw a flashback of myself making sauce in 1842 with a wooden spoon and unresolved generational trauma.
By the third plate, I wasn’t eating—I was time traveling. Honestly, if you don’t order three plates, did you even eat here?
10/10. Would sacrifice all future relationships for one more bite.
- Chipotle short rib pasta - Fettuccine Alfredo w/ broccoli - Carbonara with angel hair Photos not taken due to being lost in the sauce.

This establishment is not handicapped accessible. Please keep in mind when making a reservation. My mother walks with a cane and was not given accommodation but told to wait another hour in a half.

Ordered breaded chicken with my meal. It was not good. It was a huge breast with a weird breading. It was so tough and basically inedible. My husband has previously ordered chicken parm and he said the same thing the chicken is very tough. I prefer a thinner breast that you can actually cut through. I let the waitress know it was not good and was still on our bill. It took forever to get our bill and we were just ready to leave at that point. Will go back to Santangelos. We always have a lovely time there.

Great experience. The waitstaff and the food was tremendous. The business dinner for 8 we had was a hit and the ambience was perfect. 10/10. Will come here again.
