Pasta e Basta was a great time with fantastic singing waitresses and an entertaining food spread inside a piano.
Only go to Pasta e Basta if you want to be entertained as you eat. We thoroughly enjoyed it and the food is good but would not have been happy with the value for money if we had only been interested in the food. Singers are very, very good. There are 2 sittings and they are happy for you to take time out between courses and listen to the singing.
Pasta e Basta was fantastic! I went with my husband and another couple for my husband's 30th and had a brilliant night. Our waitress Aeisha was lovely and very attentive and a fabulous singer, as were the other waiters and waitresses. The food was very good and filling and the actual place was very cosy and intimate which was exactly what we wanted.
If you want a different night out in Amsterdam then this is the place for you!
wonderful!
Pasta e Basta was fantastic! Great atmosphere, the anti pasti buffet served out of the piano was delicious and the menu choices were also great. Despite the singing being quite cheesy, it was such great entertainment and the whole ambience is really warm. We were also given a free glass of bubbly for booking through Top Table. Great night out, highly recommend!
