Banza earns strong reviews as a high‑protein, gluten‑free swap that often tastes and chews close to traditional pasta and even delivers standout frozen pizzas, while many note it can overcook quickly, turn mushy or sticky, and some cuts feel fragile. Reviews of Banza praise the satisfying, protein‑dense pasta, kid‑friendly appeal, and tasty mac & cheese (notably White Cheddar), but flag inconsistent texture across shapes, occasional bitter/chickpea aftertaste, and spaghetti/linguine that clump or stay too firm.

This is the only thing I feed my kids, they have NO idea it's not wheat pasta. All they want is "the orange one" :) Mom win.

Not a fan of the texture, but would definitely use if needed.

As someone who is gluten free and has tried ALL the alternative pastas, this is a real stand out! I use the pizza crusts often and love the mac & cheese for a comfort meal. Also, having the added bonus of extra protein is a huge benefit to me. I wouldn't say their products are comparable to the real thing but they're a fantastic healthier alternative.

I was hesitant as a pasta lover how I’d feel about the texture or taste. But they were delicious 10/10 would buy again

I frequently use this’s brand of noodles, and my meat and potatoes loving husband raves about “how they taste just like real noodles!”, lol. They taste great and keep you full with all that protein!

The concept is interesting, however it's hard to digest.

I have tried the pasta and a pizza and this sure does hit the spot.. The pasta comes close to je real thing but has loads more protein.. I also enjoyed the taste of the pizza, sight differences in the texture but the taste was superb

Good pasta that’s healthier and lots of protein. Not for everyone, my husband doesn’t like the flavor but I think it taste the same as regular pasta.

I love how healthy this is. I like to eat healthy so this is perfect for a college student looking to maintain their weight.

Love all the Pastas, but the PIZZA is to die for as well as the Mac and Cheese for quick and easy snacks or sides.

Wanted to love this pasta, but something about the texture of the penne is not quite right. I will attempt to use the rest of the box and hopefully it will taste better.

Banza noodles are a great addition to the pasta market! I buy Banza chickpea noodles for my homemade bakes and casseroles. The protein content is terrific.

Great protein, chewy texture. I liked this pasta for the nutritional content, but it did take a long time to cook and seemed a it chewy and tough. When it's well-salted and mixed in with a heavy sauce though, it tastes pretty good!

I have bought Banza at the store and thought. It was really good for a gluten free option. It’s a heartier pasta than a lentil and or rice type pasta. I would buy it again. It’s fun to try new things.

I recently tried Banza and it's a game-changer! An easy way to boost protein in my diet without sacrificing taste. It's pasta, but with numerous health benefits. I was pleasantly surprised by the delicious taste, and I love that it aligns with my health goals. Definitely a staple in my pantry now

As someone with a gluten allergy, this is my go to. This pasta is not only nutrient rich with protein but is a great texture for a gluten free pasta.
