Of course, grandma is the best cook that we know. But we can’t always go to her house to enjoy her tasty food that she prepares with so much love. So, it’s nice when we can find a restaurant that cooks as good as she does. And Pastafina is that one Italian restaurant in Arkansas that cooks homemade pasta that rivals grandma’s.
Voted as the best Italian restaurant in Northwest Arkansas, Pastafina has certainly earned this recognition.
Located at 1045 East Lowell Avenue in Cave Springs, this eatery is open on Tuesday to Sunday from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m.

Start off with one of the tasty appetizers, and you’ll also love the freshly baked bread with the olive oil-based dipping sauce.

Or order the penne and meatballs because it’s to die for. And the portion sizes are huge, so you’ll have enough to take home for the next day.
There is so much to choose from on the menu like veal and eggplant entrees, salads, lasagna as well as other Italian favorites.
