About

Pasta Balboa is a small, informal Italian pasta spot where you choose a gluten-free pasta shape and pair it with a sauce; reviews praise the vegan pesto and generous portions. High stools and counter seating keep the space casual, and several diners note that meals are served in disposable containers even when eating in, so reserve ahead if you want a table.
