Pastaus brings the theatre of fresh pasta to the heart of Valletta — authentic Italian craft, Mediterranean ingredients and a buzzy, informal table.
Great pasta starts with craft: dough worked by hand, shapes chosen for the sauce, and recipes that respect where they come from.
The experience stays relaxed. Come for a quick plate, a long dinner, a celebration or simply because fresh pasta sounds like the right answer.
Discover our story →Part of the joy is choosing. Different shapes hold sauce differently, changing texture, bite and the whole plate.
Make the handmade process part of the experience — flour, dough, shape, sauce, plate.

“goooood”
“(Translated by Google) I really liked Pastause; it has a friendly atmosphere, good prices, and a wide variety of dishes. I tried the four-cheese pasta with almond sauce, and it was delicious. I also really appreciated the service; I have difficulty speaking English, so Marcelo, one of the waiters, helped me communicate. (Original) Me gustó mucho pastause, tiene un ambiente amigable, buenos precios y variedad.

“(Translated by Google) If it were legal, I'd kiss the chef for what I had on my plate. Phenomenal. The visit is enhanced by the ability to choose the type of pasta you want to serve with your dish. Fairly priced. Nothing to add, nothing to subtract. (Original) Gdyby to było legalne, ucalowalbym kucharza za to co miałem na talerzu. Fenomenalne. Wizytę urozmaica możliwość wyboru rodzaju makaronu z jakim chcemy zjeść nasze danie. Cenowo uczciwie. Nic dodać nic ująć.”
