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.

It was decent for $60 but the instructor Tony was rude. He made rude comments and embarrassed my friend about taking pictures.

Great experience!! Great service, great food, only thing I would change was how many people are allowed for the reservation. Could’ve been 3 or 4 people less just because space is a little limited, and also drinks are a little on the pricey side. Other than that our pasta teacher,food, drinks, and service was great! Would definitely go back!

Aunt Jake's is absolutely worth the social media hype. Anthony hosted the most entertaining and upbeat past making class. His energy made the class spectacular, and we couldn't recommend this experience enough.

What a great night!! I was super nervous because I’m not the “chef” in our family, but there was absolutely no reason to be! Our instructor Anthony was great! The pasta we made was easy & i can’t wait to eat it. Our dinner was delicious!!! From the apps to the desert - so so good. We will definitely be back! Thanks for a great night!
