Pastinos Pastas & Vinos — Restaurant in Hallandale Beach

Cool little place serving Italian cuisine next to Wing Stop. Park in the lot and walk to the front of the building. This is family owned. The pride in all they do is evident. We reserved a table for twelve. This is probably not the most suitable place for a party of twelve, but they handled our group well. They serve a couple of beers and some wines. You can bring your own wine, but there is a $20 uncorking fee. Their cabernet savignon is very good. For appetizers, we ordered calamari that came with a tomato based sauce and charred grilled octopus with a small mash potato side. I recommend asking them to grill the Octopus crispy. Both appetizers were tasty. They have house specials, Their menu is a la cart pasta. Pick your pasta, sauce, 2 accompaniments, and protein. We unanimously agreed that the pasta was cooked to perfection. One person said it was the best Alfredo they've ever had. This place has a high rating for a good reason. Their food is delicious. They made sure we were satisfied and even brought out a piece of coconut flan for our birthday guest. Prices are very reasonable, We had drinks and dessert, and the bill came to about $30 per person. For dessert we had a pustachio cake and coconut flan, both delicious. You can get a great lunch for under $20. Highly recommending this place. ...

THIS IS THE BEST PLACE FOR PASTA AND FLAVOR IN FLORIDA! Pastinos has become my second home. I eat here literally 3-5 times a month, if not more often. I am a pasta fanatic and have not found a restaurant other than Pastinos that allows you to completely customize your pasta. Add to it, all of the ingredients are ALWAYS fresh, prepared with love and the ambiance of the restaurant is incomparable! These people are extremely passionate about every little detail and it shows in their presentation, service and taste. This is a true gem in South Florida and they do not get enough credit for being so amazing! Service is top-notch and again, the food is always amazing!! I leave here with the best feeling each and every time and I will be a frequent patron of this restaurant as long as their doors are open! Portions are perfectly sized (large) and you are guaranteed to be impressed! Check...
