Join us at Aunt Jake's Upper East Side for our Pasta Making Class & 3-course pasta menu! The cost is $55 per person for pasta instruction and the prefix meal. We require a $10 per person non-refundable deposit.
The entire experience is approximately 3 hours.

Please visit our Aunt Jake's Upper East Side account for standard, a la carte reservations.



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 on how to eat pasta compared to how the restaurant wanted you to eat it. With that in mind, Aunt Jakes’ core mission is to bring high-quality fresh ingredients daily to craft our handmade pasta and sauces in a health-conscious manner. The customer can mix and match, sauce with shape, and create a custom dish of their own.

    We thoroughly enjoyed our pasta making experience. It was educational but not very technical and I felt like I learned a new skill that I can recreate at home. I enjoyed how helpful our instructor was. It was nice to be able to take home the pasta we made! The 3 course meal was very filling and tasty! I’d go back again 😁

    Javier was an amazing teacher! Vibes were great. Group was perfect size. About 10-15 ppl. We learned how to make 4 pasta shapes and got to bring it home. We were able to order food before we started the class, so it would be ready once we were finished with the class. The pasta, chicken parm, and buratta were delish. Total was about $100 each for 4 ppl, including the class, dinner, and drinks. Perfect for a date night or girls night!

    Aunt Jake's Pasta ExperienceResponded on May 15, 2023Allison thanks so much for the review! The maximum that we host is 18, but we also host private classes too which is perfect for parties! Hope to see you soon. Best, Aunt Jake's
