Il Pastaio Italian Restaurant ·$$

This family-run restaurant presents the warmth of Italy on every plate. Marta and Giuseppe make all of their pastas in-house, and the variety is amazing. From Capellini and Spaghetti to Rigatoni and Fusilli, each one is delectable when combined with their signature sauces like Bolognese, Matriciana, Pomodoro and Arrabiatta. The entree selection is also varied and all dishes are priced under 20USD. Of course guests will find homemade desserts such as Tiramisù and Cannoli as well as Spumoni on the menu. Overall, an authentic Italian-American bistro that deserves all the attention it receives in Boulder.
