Castro's newest Italian restaurant Pasta Panino (4150 18th St.) is now open — serving up fresh pasta and sandwiches at affordable prices. Hoodline broke the news of Pasta Panino taking over the former Taqueria El Capitan and Zapata space earlier this year.
Opened July 6, Pasta Panino is owned and operated by chef Jeremias Guerra. Guerra will be familiar to many Castro residents having been the executive chef at seafood restaurant Catch for nearly 20 years.
