Pasta Boss

"I can not hype this place up enough! I have literally been all times of the day; first thing when they opened, mid-afternoon and right before closing. All of the ingredients were super fresh! The cut leafy veggies were fresh and crisp. (Not withered and brown like some places that cut them way in advance.) You build your own pasta dish (pasta, sauce(s), toppings, and seasonings) and pay one price, no matter the amount of toppings or extras. They have over 30 toppings to choose from including meats, cheeses, veggies, and more, even Cheez-Its and Hot Cheetos. If they can close the lid, it's a go! My pasta was loaded to the top. They had to squish it down to make it close. They are very, very generous with the portions. The first time I got the The Boss size and I literally got 3 meals out of it. The next time I got The Supervisor size and got 2 meals out of it. If you aren't sure what to get, they have some Boss Favs selections you can choose from or customize. Every bowl comes with a piece of fresh garlic toast. Thier pasta is made fresh in house every day. Their meatballs are amazing and I'm not even a fan of meatballs. The staff is super friendly, welcoming and patient. I highly recommend them! They have something for everyone."

"Pasta Boss is Subway-style fast food, but for pasta, with a more personal and local feel. You pick and choose whatever you want and they make it right in front of you. What a great idea. The food, service and atmosphere is what you expect for a fast food place. I enjoy the food for the price and will come back soon."

"PASTA BOSS!!!!! People have commented it's the Italian version of Chipotle or Mod Pizza. Hmmmmm, maybe in slight concept. I've eaten at both and they seem to under deliver and over promise. I would contend that Pasta Boss is an early startup prototype in the making. Like the very first McDonald's before franchising. Every pasta is made in house and every sauce is made from scratch. It's Mod Pizza without the attitude, it's Chipotle with more generosity and the best part is real Italian pasta made from scratch that doesn't break the bank. THIS IS NOT A CHAIN!!! This is a brand new startup where the people have a ton of passion. Even the owner's mom works there and she is a professional Baker making my favorite pineapple cake which I will be trying on Friday and then again on Sunday. LOL. Bottom line is PASTA BOSS under promises and OVER DELIVERS! They beat every single expectation I had for a loaded loaded loaded freshly made angel hair pasta with homemade sauces for only $14.50. I ordered the Boss which is extra large. I will order the $11.25 version next time. What a great addition to Salem and Keizer. EVERYONE CAN AFFORD TO EAT HERE! Food is fantastic! Staff is very knowledgeable and friendly. Parking is so convenient. Makes for a very stress-free dining experience. Located in a small strip mall of the parking lot of Fred Meyers North. 2927 Broadway St NE #180 Salem, OR 97303 11:00 to 9:00 7 days a week Open until 10pm on Friday & Saturday"

"Me and my wife have been waiting for this place to open and it was totally worth the wait. Today was the grand opening and we were the 3rd customers to come in. The staff was super friendly and very helpful. We both ordered the boss size, loaded them up with our favorite toppings (there are TONS of toppings to choose from) and we could hardy finish them they were so filling. Our son got the trainee size and it was the perfect amount for him. The food was amazing and we will definitely be back. I highly recommend checking this place out."
