I received a gift card from work which I used to order a few meals for my partner and me. The food was delicious and went down a treat. A few different vegetarian options would be nice - but what I had was very tasty. I had accidentally signed up to a subscription (I’m sure it was very clearly written) and was able to cancel my order, subscription and get it refunded in less than 3 minutes by a very pleasant and helpful customer services agent. It was a very thoughtful gift and I won’t hesitate to offer this to somebody else and if I have the disposable income I’ll probably treat myself and my partner again.

**Updated review ** I have received a really lovely email from the founder and I have been offered a replacement meal so I am very happy to order again and expect this was just an “ off night”. As I mentioned in my review I had eaten a truffle pasta before which was absolutely amazing. To blue squirrel you are not the only authority on Italian food - this is a forum where we are all entitled to express our opinions, not just you !! I shall order again and review and really appreciate the care and attention from this company

I can not recommend Pasta Evangelists enough. The food tastes fresh, huge portions, and they taste genuinely Italian. A portion lasts me 2-3 meals, and they have lovely extra touches. I have been given extra little touches as gelato for free, and all the food is delivered in separate containers for you to mix to your taste. The drivers are lovely, and the delivery is very fast; with food arriving hot! I have seen people moan about lack of sauce...Pasta Evangelists food is authentic Italian; if you want the sloppy British version with extra sauce, there is an option to pay for that. Italians do not serve their pasta swimming in sauce! Of note, I ordered from them directly today, having previously ordered via Deliveroo...I recommend using them directly. Just as speedy & they were generous with extra free little gifts. Highly recommended!

Well I haven’t got so far as the food yet. I wanted to order gift cards for my son and daughter-in-law’s anniversary. Was hoping to email to arrive on the day so emailed Pasta Evangelists to ask if there was an option to select date before paying. Was informed - ‘We have a processing and delivery timeframe of 3-5 business days for our gifting products, so if you order one of our gift certificates, you won't be able to add the date when you'd like it to be delivered’ So, as anniversary 5days away ordered today. Only on receipt of confirmation of order did I find it would be delivered within 20 minutes and I had clearly stated it would be by email. Also no opportunity when ordering to check details before paying and no details of order on confirmation. They have been delivered but it would have been good to know in advance as I would have ordered on the day. Surprise somewhat spoiled. On reading the recent reviews below am not reassured, the gift cards will probably just be used for one off orders and reports of problems with this and entering gift card details are very disappointing. If they do encounter any snags I shall regret offering such a gift Pleased to say has now been successfully resolved and, seeing replies below, must congratulate Pasta Evangelists and their excellent response times

The pasta and sauce are unique and delicious and certainly more authentic than you’d buy in a supermarket. I purchased directly on a two weekly scheme and it was delivered in an eco friendly package on the day I wanted. An all around excellent quality service.

Amazing customer service, very quick responses and so helpful. Mana was especially great. Will definitely be booking again.

They're liars, much cheaper on ocado and ordered many times on deliveroo to find out its a microwave meal and often cancelled. Rubbish

I had really high expectations given the reviews The portions were adequate but sadly lacking enough sauce. Very dry. Very disappointed. Wild boar ragu tasty but not enough of it

The order was placed by my daughter and sent to me, initially there were several missing items and customer services were slow to respond and rectify. However, very kindly Pasta Evangelista have given her a full refund and sent a pasta cooking gift (to me) by way of apology, so more than adequate response in the end. The food was absolutely gorgeous as well and I would definitely recommend it wholeheartedly.

Updated to reflect that they have now processed the refund and called back - this call was much more pleasant and the person more understanding but the below is still valid. In the first home order only 2 of 12 items arrived. Terrible customer service said they would come back to me via email - which they didnt. Offered apologies but no assurances the next order would come correctly. Order arrived this time with a grand total of 3 things which they seemed happy about, I however was not as that still left 7 items missing from the second box. Kept saying they have a strict packing process and it was a one off - clearly this is false. Now are refusing to give a refund for the order - as some items arrived across two shipments and two days. As with the last day of chasing them are quick to fob off a customers concerns by claiming they have flagged the issues. Most companies would have checked the second order unless they fully intended to send it without the items. Also be wary about the free gifts - they clearly dont update them or tell you if they have them in stock so dont expect it to come either.

Mashroom pasta was mind blowing! Highly recomend it!

The food is lovely, portion sizes are just right and it is simple to prepare. Their customer service is absolutely fantastic too!

As a chef of over 30 years I wanted to see how others run a pasta course and what they would teach in a couple of hours. The course was informative, fun and a great way to spend a couple of hours on a Sunday morning while sipping on the promised prosecco. If you want to learn the basics of pasta making, sign up, get your apron on and enjoy yourself.

Usual excellent food. Slight problem occurred with delivery as one item was missing but Vera sorted this out very quickly and efficiently. Great customer service.

You can tell how much a company respects its customers when things go wrong- thank you Vera for your faultless customer service when my delivery was mistakenly returned to Pasta Evangelists. Hoping for many more delicious pasta deliveries from you!

Preparation and delivery were fast. The menu shows significant variety. The quality of some dishes was excellent, especially, the Burrata Alla Pizzaiola Starter, the truffle, Mac and Cheese Maccheroni, and the Lobster, Crab and Prawn Tortelloni. The Lasagne were also an absolute delight. Good texture and very well cooked bechamel. Unfortunately we could not give 5 stars because the Wild Boar Tagliatelle were overcooked, lacked salt and the tomato sauce reminded me of my elementary school canteen in Santa Margherita Ligure. Overall, the culinary experience was very positive. PS I am Italian

Wonderful pasta meal we got assorted Italian meats and bread, mini bottles of Pimms and 2 desserts. I contacted the company as the box was broken on delivery and some of the deserts were spoiled, customer services were great they were back to me in seconds, then I got another message from Vera and she put the icing on the cake thank you Vera for your help and gift on my next,order

We have this wonderful pasta delivered every three week, it’s always delicious, very well made and well packed. My husband adores pasta and the choice of meals to choose from are excellent and cover for all tastes. Portion sizes are just right. Customer service are brilliant and always reply quickly if any issues occur Would highly recommend.

Honestly the food was nice, not AMAZING, but I like the creativity of the recipes. Nice flavours. Apple tart was very nice. Now I am writing this more so to inform the Oxford branch that there was a piece of sharp plastic in my moms pasta and luckily she didn’t hurt herself, but please be careful!! How could something like this happen!? Deliveroo has refunded me £10 pounds and I’m not sure if they will inform you of the problem. I need to know that you have become aware of this situation. Thank you

Fun, intimate and educational experience for a couple or for a family, or even by yourself! Chef Roberta was so funny and entertaining, and she made sure to not leave a single person out. Helps that the pasta that she taught us to make was absolutely delicious as well. Would definitely visit again!
