West Lynn Cafe has a fabulous pasta al greco--feta, olives, capers, etc...it's wonderful (esp. on angel hair pasta).

And strangely enough, though I hate to admit it, I had a really good pasta meal at Carraba's in Lincoln Heights.  A chain, but really mouthwatering.

You'll gain two pounds if you eat eight ounces, but Madam Nadalini's cheese tortellini is incredible.  Red/white/green pasta, some sort of cream sauce . . . yep, I'm there.
