CARUSO Pastabar

Best restaurant in Agnesviertel. All dishes they serve are just amazingly delicious and special. This place is a perfect choice for a special occasion also! Staffs are very adorable. They are always welcoming, friendly and doing a professional work. Always on ten!

Amazing little restaurant serving great quality food. Food was amazing and the service was really good and efficient. Definitely need to book/reserve a table as it gets very busy. Was really nice to see the owners eating with their family in the restaurant too.

I was here in January with a friend whose birthday is also in January. I chose this place because it has a Bib Gourmand recognition. We had a 3-course dish. The staff were very nice and friendly and the place looked great. However…the food was…okay. I’ve tried other Bib Gourmand restaurants in Spain, Portugal, France and I even paid the same amount (if not a bit less) and compared to those, Caruso is …ok.

lovely lovely service, taste for starters and mains were not bad. some were better than others but main pasta didn’t stood out to me. surprisingly dessert was the best out of the 4

Caruso Pasta Bar was a fantastic dining experience, offering great value and quality—especially from an American tourist’s perspective. At €55 for a three-course menu, it felt like a great deal compared to similar dining experiences back home. The restaurant itself is a small, intimate setting that we absolutely loved. However, the tables are quite close together, so if you visit, expect a cozy atmosphere where you’re fairly close to other diners. Despite this, the ambiance felt warm and inviting. The service was stellar—friendly, attentive, and engaging. Our server went above and beyond, taking time to chat with us about Naples, Italy, and share insights about the dishes and drinks. It was clear that the staff genuinely cared about creating a memorable experience. The wine selection was extensive and thoughtfully curated, and the cocktails were reasonably priced and expertly crafted. The Espresso Martini was perfectly balanced, and the Hugo Spritz was light and refreshing—both absolute highlights. We started with the cauliflower appetizer, which was delicious and beautifully presented. The marinated salmon, while enjoyable, could have been improved by serving it on a cold plate, as the slightly warmer temperature detracted from the dish. The pasta dishes stole the show. Each showcased exceptional technique, with perfectly balanced and complex flavors. The agnolotti and fusilloni were our favorites—both creative, well-executed, and absolutely delicious. These dishes alone made the visit worthwhile. Dessert, while decent, didn’t quite match the high standard set by the rest of the meal. The goat cheese-flavored ice cream was interesting but slightly overpowering and didn’t pair well with the bland sponge cake it was served with. Our only other critique was the water surcharge, which felt overpriced at €5 per bottle. However, this was a small issue in an otherwise excellent dining experience. Overall, Caruso Pasta Bar delivered elevated, creative cuisine with outstanding service, standout pasta dishes, and a charming, intimate atmosphere. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a memorable meal!

We held a dinner party for a small group of friends here. Seriously good cuisine. Sensational balance of taste, textures and colour. Very good selection of wines and cocktails. Welcoming. Relaxed. Friendly. Comfortable. Attentive, warm-hearted service. Excellent value. Unequivocally recommend this delightful restaurant.

This restaurant is an instant mood changer with its delicious food, cozy environment, and super helpful, friendly team. My special thanks go to the chefs, who do a fantastic job!🤤

My Girlfriend and I celebrated our Anniversary in this restaurant. It was a regular Monday but you wouldn't know that when you sit in the restaurant. About half the tables were already taken when we got there so we were glad we had a reservation. We decided to take the three course menu. There was a perfect amount of options per course. Not too overwhelming yet not too little. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive. The food was simply sensational. I attached some fotos, mostly veggie. I can't recommend this place enough. We had a wonderful time.
