Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often return for the pomodoro pasta, with one saying it is their all time favourite and that they crave it after moving away. Cheese and chive pasta and garlic bread come up close behind, and diners describe generous portions alongside a cup of tea or coffee. Several say they visit Trago especially for the pasta, and the sauce is described as made in house by a family run team. Reviewers also call the place clean and the staff polite, kind and nice. One diner was grateful for a small pot of dairy free pasta and sauce made for a grandson. The one critical review describes overcooked pasta with a poor sauce, which stands against otherwise consistent praise. Many reviewers say they plan to come back, and one is already heading over the following morning.

“Always always get the pomodoro pasta. I used to live close to Trago and crave the pasta. The problem is I now live up in Malvern and when I crave Trago pasta I can’t make the same! My all time fave pasta. And the portions are elite! As a pasta girly that would have it for lunch everyday this would be where I would go if I could 😂 please never leave trago i look forward to my pasta twice a year lol”
