• Contemporary Italian • Upper East Side
Booked 35 times today
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.

    We enjoyed every aspect of our time! Our waiter was fun., solicitous and never rushed us. The food was delicious and a good value. It's no wonder that we were surrounded by repeat customers, who waxed poetic about the restaurant.

    We celebrated my birthday at Craft, and every aspect of the dinner was excellent. From the food, the service, the wine, the music, the ambiance; everything. Highly recommended for every day meals out or special occasions. Portion sizes are also very reasonable, and the price-quality ratio can't be beat. Real ingredients are showcased for their inherent value, rather than over-processing foods into foams, etc. If you want to enjoy excellent products in an excellent space, look no further.

    I rarely write reviews but wanted to share this. This is a restaurant primarily attractive to a young crowd eager for the drink special in the prix fixe menu. When we arrived (7 months pregnant and two kids under 10) they immediately worked to seat us quickly, then dispensed with the prix fixe because it didn’t make sense for us since 3 out of 4 of us couldn’t drink. Love the thoughtfulness. Food came out quickly, hot, kid friendly pasta options without insane portions. Great option.
