"For those days when you need a portion of pasta larger than the new Titans stadium budget, head to Pastaria. All the pastas are made in-house, but beyond that, they arrive quickly, piping hot, and tossed in the perfect amount of sauce—enough to generously lacquer the noodles and to scrape up at the end with some bread. House wines by the glass are just $8 during happy hour, so snag the red to match your rich and slightly spicy bucatini all’amatriciana or gorgeously tender lasagne verde with spinach noodles." - Ann Walczak

"Pastaria, Gerard Craft’s casual Italian import by way of St. Louis, landed in Nashville in 2017, bringing with it some top-tier pizza and lively vibes. The restaurant’s open kitchen shows off a big wood-burning oven, which turns out Neapolitan-style pies featuring toppings from their own pepperoni to spicy ’nduja meatballs to jalapeño, pineapple, and their own Canadian bacon on the Pastaria Hawaiian pie." - Ellen Fort
"For an Italian twist on early evening cocktails, Pastaria delivers with select appetizers, pies, and pasta priced under $20. Kids can also get a piece of the action with all children’s menu items priced at $10. On the drink menu: $8 glasses of house wine and draft prosecco, $11 Old Fashioneds and Aperol spritzes, and $4 draft beer. Happy hour runs every day from 5 to 6 p.m." - Ellen Fort
"The brainchild of St. Louis chef Gerard Craft, Pastaria serves some seriously delightful carbs from its lofty shop in the OneC1ty complex. Watch as dishes like cacio e pepe, tubular egg-based garganelli, pistachio ravioli, and wood-fired Neapolitan-style pizzas slide out fresh from chef Evelynn Hadsell’s open kitchen. Look out for the grab-and-go gelato counter by the door — a nice touch for a post-pasta sweet treat." - Ellen Fort
