Pastorante

Pastorante has been on our list to visit for some time and we’re so glad we finally made it. On the main drag in downtown Steelton, there’s plenty of street parking. Also BYOB. We loved the stuffed mushrooms to start but main event were the flavorful and fresh pasta dishes. My partner really enjoyed the lasagna. The spaghetti and meatballs were great, left me mopping up the sauce with the homemade bread. Good portions for super reasonable prices.

Came here unplanned and without reservations on a Saturday afternoon. It was completely booked, but they were nice enough to seat me as it was before the dinner rush and there were a few open tables. I was by myself so they accommodated me. I appreciated the customer service. Started off with some bread before ordering the Squid Ink Fettuccine with Shrimp. Food came out after about 10 minutes and was definitely made fresh to order. Could taste the homemade pasta through the sauce. Was a good sized serving with plenty of shrimp. Great food with outstanding service.

A lovely experience! You can tell everything is made with love - literally like eating a meal made by your motheror grandmother. The meatballs were great, the stuffed mushrooms were delicious- and the bulgogi Mac n cheese was so savory! I wish the shrimp fra davolo had a bit more kick and was spicy but the shrimp were cooked perfectly. We also love a BYOB establishment. We will be back!

Best Italian I've had in a long time. Fresh homemade pasta daily. Fresh ingredients. Second visit food was as good as the first visit. This time there were half a dozen freshly baked focaccia breads cooling on the window sill. The focaccia is served as a base for bruschetta that is quite delicious. The small open kitchen is cool as you can watch the staff in action. The staff is very attentive and quite pleasant to talk with.

Had lunch today at Pastorante in their new Steelton location, and I’m already looking forward to going back. Everything is extremely fresh, bright, homemade, and packed with flavor. I had the pesto fusilli with chicken lunch special, along with an in-house salad and homemade focaccia bread — and to say it was delicious is an understatement. If you haven’t checked them out yet, do yourself a favor and stop by Pastorante right on Front Street in Steelton. You won’t be disappointed!!! Support local business!
