Probably one of the best pasta restaurants we've ever gone to. The pasta was so amazing because it was freshly made in the morning and the sauces were also fresh and very tasty. Service was friendly and though our food took awhile to be prepared it was worth it. The restaurant itself has a modern feel and is much nicer than what one would expect in a strip mall. The prices were also reasonable considering the quality.
We ordered:
Pesto Seafood Tagliatelle
Spaghetti & Wagyu Meatballs
Butternut Squash Campanelle plus Tofu
Butternut Squash & Goat Cheese Salad (Goat Cheese on the side)
Tiramisu
8pc Polenta
I ordered the Campanelle but ended up switching with my wife who ordered the Tagliatelle because she wanted more acid. My son loved his Spaghetti. The Salad and Tiramisu were very good too. We also got a complimentary 8pc Polenta as a starter which was very good.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Ellie L.North Park, Victoria, Canada01Aug 14, 2024
I ordered three cheese rigatoni which I have ordered in the past it was incredibly bland most of the pasta was plain slightly greasy with a thin layer of crisped cheese with a small amount of mushrooms, in the past this meal was creamy and bursting with flavour. and $10 cheaper. this was a very disappointing meal and way too pricey for what it was.

On holiday and very hungry, we were craving Italian cuisine after a long day of walking and outdoor activity. We found Lot 1 Pasta Bar on Yelp and made a reservation through open table. To our surprise the restaurant was in a strip mall facing a shoe store with a makeshift patio in the parking lot set up for outside dining. We decided even though the view was terrible we would give it a try. The pasta was cooked al dente and was perfect on texture. The pasta plain would have been fine but the Issue here was both of our pasta plates were underwhelming on spice and sauce and overall flavor. Pretty much just flavorless pasta for the $23-$28 price range for each plate. We ordered a side of breadsticks for $10.50 and had 1 glass of wine each and the bill was close to $100 for 2 people. Felt for what we had, it just wasn't worth the money. I wanted to eat what I could and left without saying a word. The chicken in the pasta dish was overcooked and bland. The "pesto" sauce was a lackluster taste that made me sad. we were in Victoria for 3 evenings and this was by far the most disappointing meal for the most money. . On the positive side the hostess, the server, and the staff were really friendly and nice and service was great. Would not return based on food taste and price for the meal.

Very nice customer service with great complimentary dish on the house.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Haylie M.Kent, WA40377Dec 19, 2023
Pasta is homemade. Sauces are well balanced.
Carbonara delicious.
Meatballs are quality and pasta is very fresh.
Pasta coniseurs here, and when comparing to all of Victoria, this is a top option.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Mar 4, 2023
Our server was very knowledgeable and friendly and we got there at the beginning of happy hour so it was slow but when we left it got very busy. The food took a little longer as with the bill but the quality of service and food made up for it. The pasta was the best pasta I've ever had hands down. They make it daily, I had to eat it slow to savor every bite. We are visiting from Ontario and if you are in the area and want amazing quality food at good price, visit during happy hour ( based on the time change it was dinner time for us anyway ).

I had researched places to eat and found Lot A as it is an Italian -style restaurant. The pictures online were very enticing as was the description of the food. We started off with Parmesan Polenta Bites House fried polenta bites, parmesan, spicy tomato sauce. Tasty though spicy might be too big of a word for the dipping sauce, a welcomed change from the expected bread. I had the Caesar Salad:
Whole romaine leaves, creamy Caesar dressing, bacon bits, focaccia croutons, crispy capers, shaved parmesan, roasted garlic . I don't care for bacon on this type of salad and love
It when I am treated to anchovies. The fried capers were a nice touch, but not a big fan of the creamy dressing as a lighter dressing helps when you still have the main course ahead of you. I had, for dinner: Ricotta & Tomato Campanelle Campanelle, fresh basil, ricotta, parmesan, tomato sauce. Thought I had spaghetti and added chicken. The sauce was very light without much flavor and the chicken was not seasoned and just sliced and cooked. I am wondering if this dish would be better served in a marinara sauce as the ricotta cheese is flat against a bland sauce. I did not finish my dinner because it was simply bland. Dessert was disappointing because I was looking forward to a chocolate dessert, but they were all gluten-free. This is very nice to see for those with celiac disease, but disappointing for me and so we all took a pass on dessert. I also had the Italian Mule drink which was refreshing and delightful and not overwhelming with an alcohol weight. Our server was nice and mostly prompt. Ilianao.?? I have to say this: when servers ask about the food and service in a plural fashion: are we liking the food, did we want to have dessert, it throws me off and is a bit off putting. Simply ask how is the food, did anyone want dessert or want to look at the menu. Can I get anyone anything water, salt , cheese, let me know you know how to be a top server and the tip always reflects that. The lighting in was nice, seating comfortable, and easy to talk.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Dave M.Porthill, ID93313Jan 6, 2024
Whenever we are in Victoria we eat here at least once or twice! Great pasta combinations that are always cooked and seasoned well! The service is also friendly and professional! Our whole family enjoys this spot!

Had the prawn carbonara which was excellent and the portion was much larger than other places I've been. Came with lots of prawns which was great! Had the brownie for dessert which was also delicious and much larger than I was expecting.
Service was excellent, our server was very knowledgeable and tried to make the experience as authentic as possible for us, however keep in mind we went at a slower time.
Ambiance is very average, but the restaurant is nice inside and well kept. We went around 2pm so it was very quite but I could see this being a popular spot for dinner due to the lack of restaurants in that area.
Overall would recommend and will definitely go again!Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0
