Pastini was my favorite restaurant but not anymore. They are going downhill. I ordered a salad and it was so soggy. The bread had marinara sauce on it and I never ordered anything with marinara. They give you very little dressing to go with a large salad. I think next time I will make my own at home. And for a lot less money. This restaurant chain is not as good as they once was. I changed my mind about Pastini. They need to improve their quality.

I had never had to leave a google review until now, because the level of service we received from this establishment was so childish and obnoxiously bad. Had previously had superior excellent service from another more experienced friendly waitress at this restaurant (our first time coming from out of state). We tipped that waitress very well and left her a thank you note. My wife and I, whom got married this morning, at the courthouse (as we await to have our larger ceremony done back in my wife's home state with family), we decided to spend the evening dinner at this local Beaverton Pastini's establishment. There was a couple waiting in front of us as we walked into the restaurant, they waited for the hostess for a bit, got seated by a blonde hostess, then came towards us and seated us in a timely manner. The restaurant was semi busy but it also appears they may have staffing issues. As we got seated and the hostess gave us our menus and silverware, we began perusing the menu. A few minutes after we got seated our waitress with drinks in hand greeted us and said she would be with us shortly. No problem, we understand, but then several minutes later we noticed she started serving other people, and gave them service. The couple who got seated just before us already started getting their appetizers, she started checking on several others, we had already decided what we were going to order 10 minutes ago, as we had put our menus down. Five minutes later the blonde hostess sees us still with menus and no drinks, she makes her way towards the waitress, busy with other people's orders, and mentions to her "he's looking at his watch", she smirks and says "yeah" and with inaudible words and laughter (I am a Iraqi Freedom combat veteran - Corpsman and currently an RN, so I can sense my surroundings and hear attuned well). I was appalled but kept my composer, explaining to my new wife, what just occured. Service to others from this waitress continued, she then approached us with no apology for our 16 minute wait, then quickly takes our order. Service from her to others continues (we were patient as she did her job, but at one point goes up front with a online carryout order to the hostess and they smile and share words with each other and laughter. She goes to clean a table up front, then proceeds to glare at us, as if we were in the error. On our special day, we didn't expect this at all. She proceeds to talk loudly in the back in laughter. The blonde hostess/waitress smirks everytime she passes us (we almost wanted to walk out). I discuss with my wife about this behavior and she notices. After a few minutes our drinks come, and she couldn't remember the specifics of our drinks, that's okay. Then a few more minutes our dinner comes and it's okay. We keep our composure and try not to complain about the level of service and their childish attitudes. She serves the couple before us, deserts. Checked on us about our meals quickly. We finished our meals, we drank our water, mine was sitting empty and the waitress did attempt to try and refill as a sign of indignation. The what appears to be a supervisor, support staff or manager passes by and offers us water, we mention that it's our marriage ceremony celebration dinner to give a hint to what we had initially expected in service as what we had received a few weeks ago. She congratulated us sincerely and offered us a to go box or deserts, we declined as we had a wedding cake at home. It was then mentioned to our waitress of our special occasion, the waitress and hostess audibly laugh in the background and chatter like bullying schoolgirls, with contempt. Being a USN combat vet, I wanted to walk back there and confront them but my wife helped me keep my composure. Later we get our bill, the waitress condescendingly congratulates us and continues to be insincere. We paid the bill, tipped her accordingly to the level, attitude and type of service we received (Zero), left a 1 star feedback and agreed to nev

So glad they're back open. I love this place! I live like a 5 minute walk away so it's an easy lunch option! Their garlic bread is insanely good and I highly recommend getting an order with literally any meal.

I've been on a slow day and a busy day, and the service was fast both times. The food was great both times, and the service was very friendly. I accidentally ordered the wrong garlic bread, and the server brought me the one I wanted at no extra charge, just made me feel well taken care of.
Fast and friendly service with family friendly activities (coloring) and a kids menu. Great selection of pasta items for a really reasonable cost (three of us ate for $60 with an appetizer). Cocktail menu with zero proof mocktails too! High quality selections with really friendly service in a convenient location.

I really liked the look of this place, it had a nice style and the staff was very friendly, calm, and caring. For an appetizer we had the tomato and ricotta bruschtta and it was TO DIE FOR!! I would definitely recommend it. However, then once we got to our entrees the food was... Lacking... To say the most. It may have been due to how flavorful our appetizer was but the entrees seemed bland. I had a baked cheese ravioli with spinach and the ravioli noodles seemed to be a strange texture.

Went here after a long time. The food was amazing. There is a fairly large collection of vegetarian options in the menu. The lemon custard summer special desert was out of this world. Staff were friendly and offered recommendations. Glad this place is open again…
Came in for the fall special and was not disappointed. Only critique was one piece of sage had a bit of stem. Other than that very much enjoyed.
