When we got there at around 6pm, the place was already close beacause they were fully booked for the night. The server agreed to have us as long as we only stayed til 7:30pm, we happily agreed. A complimentary tray of crispy slices of Baguette and dip of Tomatoes in Olive Oil topped with Parmesan was served.

For starters we ordered the Buffalo Mozzarella with tomatoes, capers and mixed lettuce in balsamic reduction. The balsamic reduction was drizzled on lightly. Though I wanted more of it, the salad tasted nice, clean and fresh.

What stood out of the salad was how the Buffalo Mozzarella was prepared. This type of soft cheese is virtually tasteless and is usually enjoyed for its stringy feel. Va Bene topped the cheese with pesto imparting a nice flavorful stringy cheese treat.

For the pasta dish, we tried the Organic Egg Tagliolini with Portobello Mushroom, White Cream Sauce with Truffle Oil. The Tagliolini was divine, you'll definitely notice how fresh, tasty and al dente the pasta is. Nothing beats fresh pasta. The sauce was nice and creamy but there were only small chunks of Portobello Mushrooms and I wanted more Truffle Oil on it.

No doubt Va Bene Pasta Deli serves impeccable top-notch pasta. My only gripe is it's quite expensive to dine here. For its price, I'd expect the servings to be bigger or the ambience to be better. But overall, it all boils down to the food. Va Bene Pasta Deli is one of the best restos that serves great tasting pasta dishes.
