    Believe it's closed on Sundays as I tried to go there Sundays afternoon around 7:30. The sign says 11:00-9:00 I believe. I tried again Monday at 8:00 pm and they were open. Went again today for lunch.

    I've tried two versions of the fettuccine and was impressed, although the fettuccine di roma was better than pollo. Brewed coffee and espresso weren't bad either.

    The other night I had the 65 peso Minestrone with chicken soup. Enough soup for 2 people and it was absolutely delicious.
    I'd say Pasta King has raised the bar for restaurants here considerably higher.

    And he's shown you don't have to have a restaurant right on the boulevard to be successful.

    I was waiting for a more up to date review and was wondering what it would sound like, has anybody seen the Italian/American owner anymore or was he only here to start the thing and now it will go the same way as most other Food outlet's? Down hill it is...

    We're they serving you petrified potatoes? Hammer and chisel required?

    I just got finished eating there about an hour ago and the pasta was cooked properly, served very hot and was put in front of my face in about 5 minutes. Tasted just fine to me. A 5 star Italian resto it's not, but they give a good value for the taste and portion size. I'd give it 3 1/2 stars on taste, 4 stars on portion size and 5 on speed of putting the food in front of you.....not to shabby for the phils.

    From Robinsons go to Mcdonalds. At Mcdonalds turn right. Make next left just after tops and bottoms. On the next intersection look to your right, it's on the corner.

    Wrong directions "Wrye" he is from north of the City, he also is a Foreigner that has to go to Immigration once in a while, so, from Immigration go towards the Boulevard and you will practically run into "Pasta King on the second crossroad...
