Join us at Aunt Jake's Upper East Side for our Pasta Making Class & 3-course pasta menu! The cost is $60 per person for pasta instruction and the prefix meal. We require a $10 per person non-refundable deposit. The entire experience is approximately 2.5 hours. Please use the OpenTable mobile app for best results when booking the Pasta Experience.–Aunt Jake's was founded in 2015, as the company set out to replicate the idyllic, simplistic cuisine we grew up to enjoy. However, we wanted to create Italian food for the “next” generation. The idea was to develop an Italian concept around the customer’s choice of how to eat pasta compared to how the restaurant wanted you to eat it. With that in mind, Aunt Jake’s core mission is to bring high-quality fresh ingredients daily to craft our handmade pasta and sauces health-consciously. The customer can mix and match sauce with shape and create a custom dish of their own.

Very cozy and pleasant environment. Good diverse menu that can satisfy many palettes -- sort of a continental/french/italian fusion restaurant. Would please a foodie. Excellent service and wine advice and a fun playlist for an enjoyable evening. Seafood and steak specials were excellent, as were scallops, meatball sliders (though they tasted like a sausage/meatball hybrid), and chicken was tender and perfectly cooked. Will definitely go back. Not a full bar but a beer/wine menu.

Fantastic thanksgiving experience — too much food but that is part of the holiday. Fortunately they were so kind in packing up leftovers — fresh portions of stuffing were given instead of giving you your actual leftover. Stellar place.

Fantastic experience for the pasta making class, and really lovely meal afterwards! Great for date night and looking forward to a girls night here for the class again! I recommend the last class of the night, because otherwise you are listening to the class after you while you try to eat. Wouldn’t be awful but just a heads up! We loved Anthony’s humor and the sangria was fantastic in the bottomless drink package. Book it, and enjoy!
