Haven’t been to Belloti, its been on my list though after the rave review in the East Bay Express awhile ago and this thread: https://www.hungryonion.org/t/oakland-belotti/
Re: pasta tasting menus, I’ve only had a pasta tasting menu once, a few years ago at Babbo in NYC (which btw is currently $95). I didn’t feel there was lack of variety in that meal. I think it depends obviously on the types and flavors of the pasta the restaurant puts out though.
