Had an absolutely wonderful dinner with my mom. Everything was delicious, and our waitress was very attentive. It was an extremely busy Sunday night, and we never went without. We grew up making all homemade pasta and sauce, and it reminded me of weekends at home Delicious fried ravioli, meatballs were amazing, and the pasta and marinara definitely gets a chef's kiss . We made sure our waitress was well taken care of!

Me and my wife had dinner there for our anniversary. I had the penne al la vodka with chicken and she had the tortellini Romano. The food and the atmosphere was perfect and the staff sung a happy anniversary song to us after dinner. It was a great experience and we will definitely be back. 10/10

Excellent Italian restaurant with a wonderful variety on the menu. The portion sides are absolutely huge (I had 3 meals from my dinner). Dinners come with soup or salad and delicious warm bread. I had the eggplant parmigiana with angel hair, and it was simply some of the best Italian food I have eaten out at a restaurant. The pasta was cooked perfectly, it was served hot, and the sauce was delicious. It is a little pricey compared to where we live, but the prices are right online with other restaurants in Wildwood. They do offer early bird specials as well. I highly recommend and will return on our next visit to Wildwood.

Let me start by saying the ambience was excellent But the food was Scrumptious. The waitress was friendly, courteous and what made her stand out more was that she was anticipating our needs. She did a great job by being attentive throughout our meal. Now let's move on to our food, The chef did an AMAZING JOB with the NY Steak , and the mashed potatoes BUT the vegetarian chicken parm AND the home made garlic bred, wowww he/she surpass my expectations to the max. If there were more stars I would give them to this place. If you go to Wildwood for a short stay, make sure you visit Pasta Pesto Restaurant, YOU WILL ENJOY YOUR MEAL!!

Very good Italian food not spectacular but very good... you get good size portions! The Pesto sauce is pretty damn good though!! The atmosphere is LOUD. Popular place to eat staff is friendly. Kids plates were 10 and they had a huge amount of food. Meatballs were amazing. The sauce is chunky type and had a good flavor. Veal scallopini was a huge portion the veal was very tender and cooked right. Loads of mushrooms tomatoes spinach in a nice sauce. Alfredo sauce 23 7 for chicken was very creamy but wife says mine is better not very cheesy more creamier. Fried calamari was cooked to perfection! We spent about 120 for 2 apple juice 4 cokes, 2 kids meals,2 adults and appetizer Overall I highly recommend you visit this place. The volume inside was the big drawback

Came here years ago with my family when we first came to wildwood and I remember it being so good and extremely big portions. I recently went and the food was good I had the seafood fra diavolo in a red sauce it was very yummy but again the portions are really big! We had ordered different apps and salads but the service was okay it could’ve been better to be honest, the atmosphere is loud so it’s good for families with little kids and big tables. I would recommend to try it.

If you enjoy Italian food, this is the place to go. The cuisine was excellent, the house dressing is delicious, and the portion sizes were generous. The eggplant was the nicest I'd tasted in quite some time. Ask for additional sauce because it was delicious on its own!!! We loved our Greek born waitress. She was so nice!!

The atmosphere and staff are legendary. We came for the first time. The portions are not big, they are very big We asked for a salad with pasta, it was the best salad I've ever had, what was that sauce It's impossible to finish.
