What J doesn't like about Cry Baby Pasta:
Should have listened to the negative reviews here. The service and ambience were great. But the food was so underwhelming. Pasta was undercooked but worse were the portion sizes. I walked down to Lorenzo's pizza after because I was still hungry. My girlfriend got nachos at a bar after. 24 dollars for a plate of undercooked pasta isn't right. So disappointing. Never coming back here. View all feedback. What kam cheung Lam likes about Cry Baby Pasta:
Shai (not sure if I’m spelling that right) is the reason my boyfriend I keep coming back! Ever since the first time we visited, she has remembered us. She’s so nice, welcoming, and personable. Such a positive light. We’ve never even had her as a server, but as a hostess, food runner, and seen her around the restaurants. She’s always working whether we’re at Bridget Foy’s or Cry Baby, and you can tell she cares about... View all feedback.

The place is called cry baby because you have to have a temper tantrum to get your drinks from the bar and then over pay for mediocre food.
