Slick interior design. Not a large menu but good enough options. You can also customize your own bowl and pick a base, a sauce and a topping. The pizza was like cheese covered focaccia. It's not an upscale Italian restaurant but go with the expectation of a Italian fast food experience and you'll be satisfied.

The food was so good! My kids wanted to take more pasta home!! It’s a beautiful place and very polite staff.
I go here fairly often. Usually get the house made pasta with Alfredo sauce, chicken, cheeses, and fresh herbs (hella delicious) but decided to get a pizza this time. Wait time is fair for a made-to-order pizza and it was really good!
Complete with an upper level loft style dining are and Foosball table this fast casual dining spot in the heart of downtown st louis is a great spot for lunch or dinner. They primarily focus on pasta and pizza dishes with freshly made ingredients. There are several pre-made options or you can build your own bowl. Regular sized meals are typically less than 10 dollars. Large bowl options are typically at least 13 dollars. Overall worth the stop
The pizza is so much better than the place next door. Still not the best, but compared to Pi next door - this is the place to go.
Subway for pasta: you choose everything and they build the bowl in front of you. It tasted great and the portion was large.
It's basically a Chipotle but for pasta. I could go there every day for lunch and not get burned out. I recommend not getting too crazy with your order the first time you go. You can get a pretty basic meal there and it still tastes amazing.
The regular bowl is enough food for me. Only get the large if you're used to really big meals or need leftovers. Also, the have Excel Soda, which is out of southern Illinois, I'm a big Coca-Cola fan and I actually like their cola better. The cane sugar makes a big difference. Beer and wine options too.
They tend to be a little more generous with portions during dinner than lunch.
This was pretty good. Sauce is good and they let you sample their different sauces before you choose. They make their own noodles too which we all liked. The pizza was okay. Very cheesy so kids really liked that. Would recommend this place.
My kids enjoyed their pizza, and my husband and I enjoyed their pasta. Yummy sauces and flavor combinations. I wasn't sure about the soda choices at first, but they were really good! My husband sampled them all and chose the grapefruit soda.
Porano is very sleek. The interior design is very well done, and the plants they have incorporated are a nice touch. The food is fresh and easy to order, the staff was helpful and friendly. We were working a gymnastics tournament across the street in the America's center. So if you are looking for a quick bite but don't want to get fast food and also don't want to go very far then Porano is a perfect option. One thing that was very unique about Porano is the soda selection. Check it out.
