    Great choice for a consistently good pasta dish that's easy to order for takeout.

    Ordered food for delivery, and the chicken was cold and raw. Absolutely disgusting and distasteful. I never experience something so gross. DO NOT GO HERE OR ORDER FROM HERE

    Yesterday was my first time at Mona Fresh Italian in the Understory. I had skipped breakfast that morning so by lunch I was pretty hungry and was looking for something quick, fresh, and filling. Mona did not disappoint! I ordered their signature "Mona" pasta which included kale, dried cranberries, feta cheese, pumpkin seeds, and Alfredo sauce. It. was. amazing. I devoured all of it, along with the whole cup of House infusion tea. The staff were friendly and walked me through the process of the menu and gave me suggestions on their favorite. I will most definitely be returning!

    When it first came to our building I think it was better. And the first guy helping you tells you to pick 5 items even though you can pick 3. It's more $$ if you get 5. Alfredo is watery and bland. Veggies are fresh, pasta is good. Chicken is good too. Just need a little tweaking but overall was ok.

    Cool location insides Houston tunnels. Food was fresh and the pasta you could tell was home-made. Would definitely go back when I'm back in Downtown

    While visiting Understory, decided to give this place a shot. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Love the concept of customizing your own pasta bowls! Food was great! Would recommend!

    I tried this place for the first time as I have not really found any good pasta place downtown. I enjoyed the mushroom pasta with fresh ingredients (mushroom is not from a can hurray). The truffle sauce was a bit too much but otherwise very delicious. You can put together your own bowl too if you fancy. If you go around 12 be prepared to wait. No surprise.

    The food here is good... Quickly made right in front of u and the portions r good so the price is reasonable. It's in the tunnel so don't get lost searching for it. Also they have fresh basil to cut into ur food.

    Terrible. I ordered the cacio el pepe and it was just noodles and clumped up cheese for $16

    We used to love this place and were happy to see it on Uber Eats last weekend. Unfortunately the food we received was not tasty at all. I ended up getting severe food poisoning from my food that took almost a week to clear up. Unfortunately we will never eat here again.

    great selection of toppings, just don’t over do it. keep the pasta simple to taste better !

  • 2/5 Jay P. 9 months ago on Google
    The spicy marinara sauce had a strong canned taste. The Italian sausage was cold and uncut, and the meatballs tasted old. The only thing I enjoyed from here was the sparkling water.

  • 5/5 Alyssa V. 9 months ago on Google
    Very quick lunch service - we got the Caprese salad (awesome) and the Cacio E Pepe pasta. 10/10 recommend.
