I was really disappointed. The pasta was rubbery and was presented in clumps. The sauce was bland. No bread or Parmesan were offered, the latter only until it was too late. The shrimp that came with the pasta was also flavorless. The burrata salad was ok, but there wasn’t much flavor to the tomatoes. The entire meal was below average, which is not acceptable when I paid $60. I used to really like Asti 15-20 years ago, but sadly it’s not what it was. Maybe it was an off night? The waiter said they were having some “back of the house issues” or “changes,” I can’t member her exact phrasing.

Another excellent dining experience. We dine at Asti regularly. We enjoy the weekend specials. last evening special was a 12 ounce meatball special on spaghetti. yes it was one big meatball. the staff is always very courteous and helpful. It is our go to restaurant for fine Italian dining experience.

Something seems to have changed in the past year. While it’s still a nice dining experience the quality of the cooking and service is a little less perfect than in past years. Definitely sit in the front section under the nose of management for better service.

Good little neighborhood pasta joint. I particularly enjoyed the earl gray based cocktail. The food was okay, slightly underwhelming.
