    Delish!!! Fresh and gourmet flavor! My husband rarely comments on my new recipes, he told me 3 times, "that was really good". The lemon zest creates a freshness that we liked. I used calamata and lg green olives from the olive bar at the grocery. Didn't quite have a cup of basil but close. I'm sure this will be good room temperature or even cold. Definately keeping this recipe, thanks Giada.

    I don't like olives, so I left them out. Instead, I added 2.5 more ounces of sun dried tomatoes; I also added chicken to the dish. It was very good though I did feel that the lemon was a bit overpowering so I may use a bit less next time.

    LOVE, LOVE, LOVE IT! Not only was this a quick and easy weeknight dinner, the flavors were awesome! Increased the garlic to 3 gloves (can you ever have too much garlic? and was short on fresh basil, but the flavors were so intense! One of the prior reviews said it was "refreshing:" and that was so true! The lemon was just perfect. I don't know if my lemon wasn't large, or other reviews just don't like lemon, but I don't have any negative comments about this recipe. It will definitely be part of my regular arsenal! Thank you Giada for another Gr8 dish!

    Loved it, loved it! We had this as part of our Sunday meal. I added a couple of more garlic cloves because we all love garlic. :o I didn't have fresh basil on hand, so I substituted it with some of the basil pesto that I make and keep in my freezer for just the occassion when I don't have fresh basil. Didn't have to make a trip to the store just for basil. All of the other ingredients are staple items in my home. Thank you Giada, for another easy and delicious recipe. Oh, yes, and instead of linguine, I had whole wheat spaghetti and had some of the sun-dried tomato paste left over. :o xo

    loved this!!! So quick and simple. I thought we would have left overs for the next night, but it was gone pretty quick. I was worried about the bitterness, so I backed off on a little bit of the lemon juice and it was perfect. Such a quick great meal to make on a busy night. Thanks for another winner Giada!

    Watched the show in the morning, and by 5 pm my family was enjoying this dish. It is really good - added some mushrooms to the pasta before adding the tomato mixture - nice.

    Great, simple and savory pasta. I added more garlic and green olives. Everyone loved it.

    I mean....it was edible...but it was really lemony. Maybe this type of pasta just isn't my thing....should of used more tomatoes or something....it just wasn't that great. =( Maybe she needs to come make it for me. Maybe there is something wrong with what I did...I followed to the T. although her instructions don't say what to do with the stored pasta water......

    I agree with the earlier post about this dish tasting too bitter, and was very surprised other comments didn't say the same thing. The combination of the lemon, lemon zest, and the olives was just far too bitter. I couldn't taste the sundried tomatoes at all, and the lemon taste just overpowered the dish. I'm going to try this recipe again and substitute the olives for mushrooms and only using lemon juice without the zest.

    Loved this recipe. Easy for a work night dinner and tasty. My only recommendation would be to reserve more than 1 cup of the pasta water which was absorbed very quickly. Adding roasted shrimp would be a great addition to this dish...will try that next time. The sun-dried tomato, olive & lemon mixture would also be great on crostini...will try that too!
