My Favorite 11/27/2009

Pasta Jay's is my absolute favorite! They use a ton of garlic, and everything I have had has been delicious. The location and atmosphere are great, especially when the windows are open. My best friend and I come here everytime I come to town, and I have never found another Italian restaraunt I like better. It is slightly annoying to pay an ""extra bread charge"" when you are already paying $6 for a dinner salad, but that is really my only complaint. Pros: atmosphere, location, garlic Cons: small tables, charge for bread more

Good Pizza. Good pasta. 7/12/2009

This is our ""go to"" restaurant. We drive from Broomfield for their fantastic pizza. Friday night special is Seafood Ernesto, a must if you love seafood pasta. You can choose either a red or white sauce. The weekends, you can expect a wait so you know it is good. Jay has opened a few other locations, but the service and food still remain great at this location. Pros: Pizza and good service Cons: Long wait on weekends more

PROM 5/9/09 5/11/2009

Everyone knows prom is suppose to be the time of your life, well Pasta Jay's made that happen. They usually don't do reservation but it was prom and gard week for CU, so they were accepting them. When we first called we had planned to do dinner at 6:30 but one of our friends had to work till 4, I called them back to see if we could change it to 7, they were more then willing to change it. Pros: Fast service and good food Cons: Small building more

Best Pizza between Portland, OR, and the East Coast 3/17/2008

I must admit I am a pizza snob and am very partial ot the pizza of the Northeast. In the Portland, OR, metro area there is one pizza place that does justice to pizza the way I love it. On a recent business trip to Boulder, CO, my friend and I enjoyed a few happy hours on Peal Ave, then decided it was dinner time. We decided on Pasta Jay's. While we were waiting in line, I looked in the window and saw three elderly people sharing a pizza. One look at that pizza told me it was great. The crust was thin while the sauce and cheese were in good balance. We ordered a medium pizza with fresh basil and meatball. Wow! I felt I was in one of thost great finds in NYC or New Haven, CT. The pizza came out nice and crisp and was a pleasure to eat. I cannot wait to go back to Boulder. I must say it was the best pizza between Portland and the East Coast. I know, Chicago is between, but I have not been to Chicago in a long time. Uno's (the franchises) have come and mostly gone for good reason. But I do hope the original Uno's and Uno's Due are still wonderful. Pros: Wonderful pizza what it is all about. Cons: Service was a little slow, but the place was busy. more

Best pizza period. Thin, crispy, perfect crust and sauce ratio, great toppings 5/17/2007

Value for the buck was great, great windows that make you feel as if you are outside. Friendly people. The Chicken with lemon/caper sauce lnch was excellent too. more

Great sauce and pasta. 7/18/2006

The veal cutlet was very good, and everyone was happy with their entree. We had pesto tortelini, ravioli and alfredo, all were excellent. Pros: Fun atmosphere, great food, very reasonable prices. Cons: If it is hot, you will not be comfortable while the windows are open. more

Chicken 7 Eggplant Milanese 12/23/2005

Bad red sauce, tasted burnt and way to salty. One of the worse I have ever had. Pros: location Cons: red sauce , garlic bread more

BEST ITALIAN!!!! 5/19/2005

Pasta Jay's is the absolute very best italian restaurant I have ever dined at! I have been there on numerous occasions and have always been highly impressed with the service, the food & the atmosphere! You will experience the best cheese tortellini on earth at this restaurant- smothered in alfredo sauce and baked with mozerella cheese on top- you can add shrimp or chicken for a little extra $ ... The stuff is to die for! Pasta Jay's is ""hands down"" the best Italian food in the Midwest! Pros: indoor/outdoor seats, best tortellini ever, awesome atmosphere Cons: 4 hrs from my house, nodeliveryto.nebraska more

I'd recommend it to anyone 9/19/2003

I've been coming to Pasta Jay's since it was down the street when Pour la France! was still in Boulder. I started coming on lasagna special days but now take every chance I get to visit when I am in Boulder. This is one of the most flavorful Italian restaurants I have found in the Denver Metro area...I'm just sad it's all the way in Boulder. I'd be there once a week if I could. I've never had less than a great meal at Pasta Jay's and it's so affordable. Love this place and tell everyone to go all of the time! Bravo! Pros: quick seating, affordable, very flavorful Cons: parking more
