text: My husband and I used to come here a lot when it was Tutti Santi because we liked that there was a nicer restaurant in the neighboorhood It is now been replaced with Auntie Pastos We were excited to try it because we like to support nonchain restaurants in the areanThe first thing that suggested to me that this place was lowerscaled was the beer ads and flags on the patio If I wanted tacky I would have walked paces east to Streets of NY The indoor decor has not been changed much except it is been cheapened even more by crooked stenciled Italian words on the walls bright red paint resembing the nowdefunct Fazolis and large TVs showing sports I could not understand the TV being placed immediately above the beautiful wine nook The Macaroni Grillesque butcher paper and crayons on the table confirmed our suspicions that this former nice place was now exactly like or even more chintzy The dreaded Olive Garden Also the tops music was distracting and added to our confusion over what the theme was for this placenStill we decided to not judge until we tried the foodnBill the server was really cool and easy on the eyes He was really friendly and knowledgable about the food and beers When asked for suggestions he said that the lasagna and chicken marsala are greatnThe beer selection is good and the beer was nice and cold The wine selection for an Italian place was really disappointing If I wanted a bottle of wine at per glass I would like to enjoy better ambience I expected a much nicer wine list I had no clue they had a full bar and since reading these reviews I see they had sangria and would have enjoyed that more nWe ordered the ravioli and the rigatoni with chicken added The foccacia bread was ok a little doughy for my taste The salad was better than say Mimis house salad It had salami and olives which makes it a little nicer The dressing was too salty and overpowering however nWhen the food came my husband could not see any ravioli as it was drowning in sauce On a positive note the ravioli was stuffed with serloin but overall was just alright and obviously not homemade The rigatoni had the same sauce as the ravioli a good combo of white red and vodka sauce The portion size was great as it left me with leftovers Overall I thought the rigatoni was too peppery as in black pepper and should have left the sauce to do the talking without so much peppernSadly we will not return to Auntie Pastos The ambience and food were just too ok to give them our money for beers wine and entrees I got a spaghetti togo for my son who stayed home We eat out twice per week and really aim to patronize nonchain places so we will find others that are better
