Cozy little restaurant. Might miss it cause its a few steps below street level. You can customise your pasta, it's good for vegetarians. Fairly priced. Tastes great. Tiramisu was decent too. Clean washroom. Polite staff. Quick service.

Unpretentious food at reasonable prices and large portions. We had a build your own with the pistachio pesto and chicken.

Enjoyed dinner 5 March 2025 during the evening hours. Great food and its made from the business owners families recipe! Customer service was on point and the environment was clean and enjoyable. 10/10 would recommend to anyone. Also this is a veteran owned establishment, thank you for your service!

Horrible food. I ordered spaghetti and meatball, garlic bread and a small salad. Bland tasting, pasta too thick and dry with barely any sauce. The cheese on top didn't make it taste better. Garlic bread was ok. Salad dressing taste watered down. Just nasty.

Some of the best pasta I have had in a long time. I had the kale pistachio pesto penne with garlic chicken and cheese garlic bread.

They keep it simple, but everything on the menu they master from salads to the pasta.

I'm really impressed with Farina. It is tucked away downstairs and comes off unassuming. Do not judge quickly!
Their principle is pretty simple - fresh, house made pasta in a fast causal setting. You pick your pasta style and the sauce you'd like. That's it! You can add in some proteins or veggies if you'd like. They have a few sides.
Your bowl will come out in 5ish minutes. It is a solid lunch portion. I usually go rigatoni in their ragu. They have a limited selection of drinks (can & bottle) available for purchase but no alcoholic options at this time I believe.
Bus you own plate once you are finished and head out to enjoy the rest of your day!

Came from out of town! Recommend ordering online for faster pickup, but order in to go was about a 10-15 min wait. Small casual space for dining. Lots of good dessert flavors, including cheesecake and cannolis! Staff are very friendly. Only pepsi and pelligrino to drink. Pesto is good! Only complaint is that there was so much spinach in mine. Overall recommend for a bite to take back to your hotel!!

The food was great, authentic pasta. Pasta was made to order and bread was fantastic. Rasta pasta was better than chicken Parma. The restaurant was a little cold as the door was open in December while it was raining. Since it was in walking distance from the hotel we were hoping to warm up before heading back out the door.
