Haven't been here in a while so brought some friends for early dinner. Parties going on so quite noisy. Our waitress was simply amazing (found out she's the owners daughter). You better keep her on staff!
Our food came out fast considering it was a full house with several parties going on
We had a bottle of Pinot along with salads and meals. Mine was pumpkin ravioli with sage sauce and it was as delicious as I remember it
The other 3 people also enjoyed their meals of chicken francaise, gnocchi etc. all delicious and served hot
Ran out of a few things but that's to be expected on a super busy evening
Glad to see this restaurant has survived the pandemic and is doing wellHelpful 2Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0Business owner information

We can't wait to open the bar! Thanks for giving everyone a heads-up about the changes, Carrie. You didn't mention the food -- I'd love to know what your favorite dish of ours is. Message me back!
Hope to hear from you,
Gabe, OwnerMay 10, 2014Previous reviewNo longer a BYOB. Wine and beer menu very reasonable. Good choices Full bar to come this summer
May 15, 2013Previous reviewI have been coming here for years. It's economical - byob and just plain good food. I have had almost everything off the menu at one time or another and the only thing I don't care for are the meatballs.
My favorites, the calamari, the Penne Pasta Arrabiata, (if you like it hot) Chicken Francaise and their desserts are even good. Try a cup of cappuccino!
I have also used them for parties, baby showers, birthdays etc It is the usual fare but good hot food and BYOB so you can't beat it. Everyone always has a good time at Que Pasta. - Bbmadds B.Hawthorne, NJ05Apr 13, 2024
Ate here tonight. Ordered shrimp scampi and chicken parm
The chicken was very tough
The shrimp scampi was overly oily like soup
I don't know why the food was awfulHelpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - 75200667May 21, 2023Updated review
Food here is usually pretty good and the portion sizes are nice as well.
Recently I had the shrimp a la vodka which had about 6 shrimp which I felt was very little for such a large pasta dish. The flavors of the dish were very delicious though.
Then I had a napolitan wrap which came with a side of a balsamic pasta which was sooo delicious. The wrap was flavorful but the meat was very dry and seemed to be over cooked.Helpful 4Thanks 1Love this 1Oh no 0Oct 3, 2022Previous reviewI ordered a shrimp penne vodka but there were literally 4 shrimp on top. I was disappointed by that because it was a lot of pasta! The flavor of the pasta was very mild and I wish the sauce had been creamier instead of thin and slightly watery. I have been here to try other meals but this one was just OK.

Not a great experience. Had high hopes... Nope. They didnt deliver.
Shrimp scampi looked more like shrimp soup. They could have drained it. Must of been made in a rush with no attention to detail. Chicken parm was tough. Like cutting into a sneaker. Rubbery. Rice balls were good. Unfortunately the service was lacking. Trying to get the attention of a server was difficult. Not very attentive. Good luck trying to get bread. With the price of going out to dinner these days you would think the restaurant would put some care into there service. Sorry, wont be back.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - 195179563Dec 1, 2022

Que Pasta has been at this location on Market Street in Saddle Brook for many years. Being it was Father's Day Eve yesterday, remarkably my partner and I got seated immediately without reservation for 2 peeps. Our server was Miriam and managed to order our appetizer of Risotto balls with crispy rolled rice balls in a vodka sauce to start and return with the rest of the order. These came out fast and were tastefully delicious. There was enough sauce to use the complimentary bread to clean off our plates. We waited a good 20 minutes before flagging our server for our entrees as she thought they were taken. It wasn't her fault as the restaurant was packed and she apologized. We decided on the Chicken Marsala with wild mushrooms, shallots, mashed potatoes, vegetables and Pasta e Burrata Spinach featuring linguini
tossed seared pancetta, porcini mushrooms, cherry tomatoes, roasted garlic, white wine sauce and fresh burrata. The food was tasty, delicious and well seasoned. The burrata was very fresh. We even saved some room for desserts and got the Chocolate Matilda (Rich house made chocolate sponge cake,chocolate pearls, creamy chocolate frosting) and Tiramisu (homemade, creamy mascarpone , espresso raked lady fingers, cocoa powder. Both were rich but the chocolate cake was dry but the tiramisu was just right and creamy. Overall it was a very good dinner and would come back.Helpful 38Thanks 0Love this 41Oh no 0May 1, 2021Previous reviewLocated in the town of Saddle Brook, this establishment has been serving Italian cuisine for over 25 years. Yesterday was our first time back in a couple of years for dinner. Upon arrival, live accordion music was being performed by Nestor Martinez filling the air as some patrons were enjoying their meal. Friday was their margarita drink special. Their pasta are made fresh. If you are in the mood for pizza, an 800 degree oven cooks their personal pie in a wood fire. Our server was Mark who was friendly and attentive. Complimentary bread with butter was served to us. My partner and I decided on the pasta al forno with CAPONATA (Pasta sheets layered with eggplant, mushrooms, spinach, ricotta, tomato sauce and mozzarella cheese) and CHICKEN PARMIGIANA with Spaghetti Marinara that happened to be Dominick one of their customers' favorite. The food came relatively fast despite the numerous takeout orders and came out warm. The sauce was tasty and can tell it was homemade. The portions were just right. As we were leaving, other patrons were waiting for their table or their takeout. This is a good sign if one likes Italian food and want an Italian atmosphere which we recommend. Buon Appetito!

We love this place - great food, great drinks, and fair prices too! I always order calamari for appetizer and any shrimp and pasta dish - my favorite. Lovely staff.

This is a good Italian cozy restaurant. I came here on a Friday night with my boyfriend and we had a really great time.
We started off with drinks and they were delicious and pretty! There is a full bar not just wine and beer as listed on here. My boyfriend ordered the bourbon smash and I got a French martini. For starters we ordered meatballs and the scallops special. The scallops were cooked perfectly and were so flavorful.
As for entrees they are very reasonable with their portions. I ordered the cavatelli and broccoli and my boyfriend ordered the linguine marechiara. I thought my cavatelli could've used a bit more garlic because it was on the bland side. However, the linguine marechiara had so much flavor I highly recommend it!
Overall, we had a great experience! Our server Mark was very attentive and helpful. I definitely would come back.Helpful 7Thanks 0Love this 5Oh no 0 - Lydia L.Bergenfield, NJ207938Jun 27, 2022
Que Pasta is one of our very favorite eateries. Their Pizzaiolo, Gus, knows great pizza. It's what he does. We have worked our way through their whole menu and haven't come up with a clunker yet.
So, when it was time to organize my future daughter-in-law's bridal shower, of course we went to Que Pasta. They have some lovely rooms...and the place is wayyy bigger than one would think.
It's the first time we worked with their Catering Staff and they made the process super-simple. Starting with Gabe, who started talks, to the waitstaff headed by our server, Laura, who made sure everything was picture and taste-perfect.
They give you a menu as a jump-off point, and I tailored it to fit the guests. They set the room up perfectly. Laura was there to lend a hand and give advice and she was truly on point.
We had a separate entrance from the parking lot to the "South Room", which had its own bathrooms, which was a very nice accommodation.
We had set up the dessert table, as the bride and groom have their own pastry shop #wishuponapastry so it looked really spectacular.
The tables looked utterly lovely, and those folding doors as the backdrop to the floral circle was great for pics.
Everyone loved the food and the service and the atmosphere, and we have Que Pasta to thank.
So, a heartfelt thank you to the QP Team, who made a special event even more memorable. We will all see you soon.
And anyone who is looking for a really great place for your next special occasion, look no further.
Thank you all.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0
