• Contemporary Italian • Upper East Side

Booked 50 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.

Always delicious food! The chicken bolognese was the best dish on the table. The pasta making experience was a lot of fun. I took some out of town guests. I would definitely do it again!

We were there to celebrate a birthday and the food was amazing and our server was great. The one issues i had and i have been going to this restaurant for over 10 years and this is the first time that i have ever had an issue. Other servers and busboys kept coming over to the table and wanted to take our plates. It was very annoying and we felt rushed. The once good thing is that i went and spoke to the manager and he was shocked and said he would talk with the staff and he did the right thing, I will not let this stop me from going back.

A new neighborhood favorite! Outstanding service, exceptional food, proper cocktails and a feeling of pre-Covid NYC smart and chic that’s been sorely missing from the UES dining scene. Please keep the secret ;)
