More Reviews of good food at Pasta Brava (Craig Road)

Ordered the set lunch that came with mushroom soup, a salad, a main (we ordered their handcrafted gnocchi with tomato sauce and smoke ricotta) and a choice of vanilla/chocolate icecream. Portion sizes were decent and left feeling full and satisfied! Really worth given the large selection of handmade and high quality pastas. I especially loved their gnocchi which didn’t have too much of a doughy/floury texture as many other eateries do + the taste of potatoes was retained. They made the right choice of pairing it with the tomato sauce so that it wouldn’t be too heavy. Worth mentioning is their caprese appetizer - the cheese and tomato slices were really really fresh! Perfect combination when eaten with olive oil and vinegar.

Service here was great as well. All the staff were really friendly and introduced the dishes to us with great detail. Thanks for the good experience!😊

Ordered stracci which has a mellow taste but not to my liking and another one was lasagna which was better! Soup wise - mushroom soup would be the better choice.

Came to this restaurant for dinner. Must commend the waiters for their excellent service. Food was good as well. The tomahawk steak was tender and juicy and the seafood spaghetti was firm and had lots of clams .

Had a splendid experience at Pasta Brava. The Staff was extremely helpful and recommended the Portobello Mushroom Appetiser and Home-Made Pasta Scallops. The pasta was extremely delicious. Price point for this restaurant is on the higher side but definitely worth every penny based on the quality of the food.

Good food and ambience, service is amazing as well.
Particularly likes the portobello mushroom starter, the risotto pictured is good as well, can taste the fragrance of the truffle, will definitely pop by again when i am around the corner

Thick, chunky tomato sauce, served with 2 juicy, delicately cooked crayfish.

Thick and creamy but not too rich, with a generous portion of savoury bacon. Very satisfying.

A chef's special, this bisque was rich in flavour and mildly spicy.

Love the food and ambience here! I ordered their Carbonara with Linguine as my choice of pasta, and their Italian apple cake with ice cream! Great way to end my day. Thank you for the good food and wonderful service!

really enjoyed the stracci al gamberi e capesante - homemade pasta that's super soft and soaked in a truly great saffron cream sauce. it's unique and something that makes me want to come back again!

Amazing Italian food with authentic Italian ambience! The food was so good and the serving is just right, definitely more filling than I expected. A very nice place to hang out with your friends or partner as the environment was great. The staffs are very friendly and welcoming, making it a very pleasant visit. If you love pasta, you must check this place out!

Heard good things about this place from a friend so we came here for our date night. We got the lobster pasta and their signature stracci ai gamberi e capesante and was really impressed with their pastas. While both pastas were really flavourful, I would say that if there’s one that you MUST order, it would be the stracci ai gamberi e capesante. It is their house signature for a reason and the sauce is like no other that I’ve tasted. Got the sticky date pudding to end the dinner off on a sweet note. Will be back again to try the other dishes!

Had the Tortellini (with minced beef and parma ham), and I was really impressed with it! The very friendly and helpful server also mentioned that it’s handmade pasta, so plus point for that! Ended with their housemade Tiramisu as well, was not too sweet and everything you’d expect in a good dessert. Their menu has so many other interesting dishes, can’t wait to come back and try them out! :D

Authentic Italian food with Italian ambience, suitable for a dinner date with your partner or even a chill gathering with friends. My partner and I both ordered STRACCI AI GAMBERI E CAPESANTE and I requested for it to be prepared in Aglio Olio style instead of the original saffron cream sauce. Despite the serving being smaller than expected, it is still very filling to the tummy. The staffs are very welcoming as well, a recommended place for pasta lovers :)

Authentic Italian restaurant with wide variety menu selection. Their homemade Ravioli filled with minced beef and light gorgonzola cheese sauce is not overpowered but yet flavorful. Good finishing with their signature Tiramisu paired with Espresso.

This is a lovely 31-year old Italian restaurant serving authentic Italian food. Excellent food and warm service making you feel at home. The prawn starter sautéed with olive oil, garlic, fresh tomatoes and parsley is simple but yet tasty. Looking forward to visit their new outlet at Scarlet Hotel!

didn’t feel like eating pasta hence i ordered the half roasted chicken. was quite shock when i saw the portion as this dish cost me $38.80 before gst and service charges. chicken was so so. definitely not worth $38.80. but also tried the fried calamari it’s nice. maybe should just stick to pasta

LUNCH SET: Stracci & Ai Gamberi E Capesante and Ravioli Con Carne Di Manzo Al Gorgonzola

Food: Pasta was not bad, cooked with 4 halved-scallops and they were succulent. That makes it only 2 full scallops. The ravioli was flavourful as you bite into a burst of strong cheese filling that was dominant over the beef's presence. Portions are on the slightly smaller side.

Drinks: Plus side - they now serve ice water, even though we did order beverages: Iced Chocolate & Iced Cafe Mocha (okay to give a miss).

Service: Overall good; attentive. Wait staff were generally attentive, friendly & helpful.

Rating It: 3.75/5

* MAKE RESERVATION IN ADVANCE* Pardon the savage image because I gobbled up my main before taking a proper photo. The highlight on the left: Stracci Ai Gamberi E Capesante. This pasta with saffron cream sauce was divine. This is the kinda sauce you will cry with frustration when you suddenly think of it again because you CANNOT recreate it so easily. Having the stracci was a first time for me as well, an Italian Mee Hoon Kueh of sorts. We had soups for appetisers (Cream of Mushroom & Lobster Bisque), pasta for mains (aforementioned & Spaghetti Alle Vongole Aglio Olio E Peperonicino) and shared dessert (Panna Cotta All’amaretto & Torta Di Mele Al Mascarpone - Apple Cake topped w Ice Cream). Had to hustle in 90min for safe management measures but honestly the food came timely and service staff was friendly. As recommended in the other burpple reviews which was useful: ask for tap water if you don’t wanna drain your wallet and are not intending on some bubbly.


Next up was the 𝐌𝐮𝐬𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐨𝐦 𝐑𝐢𝐬𝐨𝐭𝐭𝐨 🍄⁣
Was surprised to see a mushroom risotto not served in white cream sauce! While the colour doesn’t look too good, it was delish 😋 Arborio rice with porcini mushrooms & parmesan cheese, simple yet authentic & good 👍🏻⁣
