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.

    I purchased the pasta making experience as part of my fiancé’s Christmas present. He loves good fresh Italian food and Aunt Jake’s did not disappoint. The food was amazing the class was very explanatory and easy to follow. This is an exceptional value. I will say the only down side is that the space to work and learn is a little tight but hey most places in NYC are. If you are looking for delicious pasta and an amazing experience Aunt Jake’s is for you!

    The service and prices were great. We had the calamari and a pizza with Prosciutto arugula. We also ordered the special app of the day, burratta and peaches. However, they served it with apples instead. It was good but we said something to the waiter. He went back to he kitchen and said the chef never uses apples. Only peaches. Hilarious bc we had apples on our plate. Skin and all. Again. It was ok. We ate it. They did take it off the bill even though we never asked them. But ridiculous that even when clearly staring an apple in the face, they wouldn't admit it wasn't a peach. We got a good laugh out of it.

    Dinner was so delicious! Service was great—really appreciate them making Christmas Eve so special! Very family friendly. We ordered an appetizer and then had one dish of the chicken Alfredo. It was literally the best I’ve ever had. It fed two adults and two children. The kids loved it and cleared their plates. Then we had the Italian cheesecake and hot fudge brownie. Both were great, definitely recommend the brownie.

    First of all, the food, as always, was of the highest quality - everything from the oysters and scallops to the steaks and creamed spinach were perfectly delicious, but mostly we can't say enough about how absolutely fabulous the team of folks graciously serving us were - especially on Christmas Eve charming the six of us (including our two young grandsons, aged 5 and 10). A new family tradition! We offer particular and special thanks to Elise, Jessie, Kelly, and Chef Carla for helping make it such a memorable evening in Lulu of Plum Run!
