My sister and I are visiting from out of town for a few days, and we were craving Italian for dinner. This restaurant came up on Google, and we decided to try it. The location is quite unique, and the atmosphere is fantastic! I really loved the music selection—I found myself singing along more than actually eating! The food was great as well. Overall, we had a wonderful experience!

I had really high hopes for pasta garage and I?ve been meaning to try it since I moved to Lexington. When my friend came in from out of town we decided it would be the perfect dinner that was casual, comfy, and not a stuffy long dinner. Unfortunately pasta garage did not at all live up to any of our expectations. There was NO line when we got there but it took an HOUR to get our food. For pasta that needs to be dropped in boiling water, and sauce that is already made that is ABSURD especially when there was NO line. Absolutely no one in front of us placing an order. Then when we get our food, an hour later, it?s in a to go bag which made it really difficult to eat in the restaurant when we wanted to share all different pastas. Those that got their food after us (also visibly frustrated, and audibly frustrated as they also said ?FINALLY!? When their buzzer rang) were all served their food in proper plates. On top of all that, we were missing an entree and had to head to the window again and wait on that. We had planned to grab dessert there, but were so frustrated we left as soon as we finished our mediocre meals. The ravioli was way over cooked to the point where it had opened up and the Kentucky shaped pasta was no where near Al dente. Thankfully my kid slurped up her spaghetti with no issues but this is not an establishment I plan to eat at again, especially since not one person apologized for the long wait time or for the missing food.

100% Recommend the pasta making classes. The owner of pasta garage is kind, funny, knowledgeable, and is a wonderful teacher. Experience is one of a kind. The food is wonderful, the wine is delicious. The ciabatta bread is the best I?ve ever had. Try it all, you won?t be disappointed!!!

Pasta Garage, Pasta Garage, Pasta Garage. I live out of State now and I dream of the chicken parmigiana. Every time I?m in Lexington, I got to Pasta Garage. They make their dishes in their very own kitchen. Their noodles are made from scratch and you can tell the difference. Angel, who has worked their for a couple years now is always there when I go and he is always very kind, helpful, and knowledgeable. The renovations and art have also improved the atmosphere while eating. The paintings of the bourbon speak Kentucky and makes me feel like I am around good company and good food.
