Montclair Pasta Ramen β€” finally tried it and honestly really glad I did. Service was the highlight of the night. From the second we walked in, the staff made us feel genuinely welcome β€” not in a scripted way, just naturally warm and attentive throughout. That alone sets the vibe. The concept is bold and it works. Pasta meets ramen sounds gimmicky on paper but the execution is thoughtful β€” you can tell there's real intention behind the menu and the space itself. Only note: the flavors run pretty intense. Salty and heavy-handed across most dishes. If you're into bold, punchy food you'll love it. For me personally it was a touch much, but I get what they're going for. Worth a visit for sure β€” especially if you're looking for something different.

My wife took me here for my 30th birthday after finding out about it on TikTok. Truly amazing food all-around. The calamari here was one of my favorite calamari dishes ever and the chicken katsu bao was just as incredible. I was reccomended the wagyu short rib ramen for my entrΓ©e which was so good and perfect to end the dinner on. I definitely recommend this place!

Had an amazing experience at Pasta Ramen! The food was great and the service was even better. Sandra was an amazing server. She explained all the specials to us and went into great detail about the ingredients in each dish, which really helped since it was our first time there. She made us feel very welcomed and comfortable throughout the whole experience. We would definitely come back again!

Pasta Ramen delivered a creative and elevated dining experience that beautifully blends comfort with sophistication. Every dish felt thoughtfully prepared, making it a destination well worth visiting for anyone who appreciates inventive, flavor-driven cuisine.We indulged in the Shrimp Bao Buns, Calamari, Clams, and Gyoza to start…each dish well balanced and full of flavor. For our main course, the Wagyu with fried mushrooms and the Miso Ramen were absolute standouts, rich, satisfying, and expertly executed. Compliments to Chef Robbie and the entire team for a memorable dining experience.

Fun and tasty. This Japanese-Italian fusion spot offers a bunch of sharable small and large plates. I came here with hubs and we ordered way too much, but the standouts were the Sunomono Cucumber Insalata (super tasty) and the Chicken Katsu Bao with teriyaki, pesto, and citrus. The only miss for me was the Calamari Fritti. While the squid was perfectly cooked, it wasn't crispy on the outside and the sauce kind of bullied the calamari. For mains, my Pork Chop Scallopini was massive, crispy, and good with a cheesy tonkatsu-style sauce. Hubs had the Tonkatsu Porchetta Ramen and loved it so much, he completely annihilated the bowl. My portion was so big, I took 2/3 of it home. We were too full for dessert but I'd definitely come back to explore more of the menu. NOTES/TIPS: **BYOB **Excellent service. Dishes come out fast. **No clear outdoor signage. It has black exterior with a black bowl and chopsticks logo.
