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.

    Great, fun class. Wonderful food. Space is small, so the volume gets loud.

    Mr. Tucci (haha)was a pasta genius, really enjoyed the opportunity to learn how to make this with my girlfriend. He made it light hearted and lots of pasta to take home. I do believe this is one of the best classes in the city.

    We LOVED aunt Jake’s and will be recommending it to everyone we know! The pasta class was sooooo fun and the food was a 100/10! Our teacher Anthony made the class so fun, it wasn’t a serious boring cooking class but was just a fun time. The food was amazing and I was shocked we got the class, an appetizer, a main dish AND dessert all for just $65 a person. And it was good quality, yummy food with huge portions! An absolute steal and one of our favorite activities we have done in the city!

    I would've gave the experience 5 stars but the host was a bit snippy and made several borderline rude comments while instructing the entire group.
