This pastitsio was delicious! I loved the combination of flavors and textures. The béchamel sauce was creamy and flavorful, and the ground beef and pasta were cooked perfectly.

I thought this pastitsio was just okay. The flavors were nice, but the texture was a bit mushy. I think I would have preferred it if the pasta had been cooked a little less.

This pastitsio was a disappointment. The béchamel sauce was bland, and the ground beef was dry. I won't be making this again.
