–

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.

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!

Such a fun experience with a great instructor! AMAZING bang for your buck - we got to bring home dough that we prepped, pasta noodles that we made, and we ate a whole meal (app/entree/dessert) and even had leftovers!

My husband and I just went yesterday and had such a great time! We really enjoyed the class. Our instructor Anthony was amazing. He was a great teacher and made everyone laugh. We also enjoyed the drinks, food, and dessert too. It really is a one of a kind experience and we can’t wait to send all of our friends!

I didnt know what you expect as you can't always trust what you see on tik tok, but i will say, this experience blew my expectations out of the water, particularly due to our instructor Anthony. It was the perfect balance of fun and learning how to make pasta and then topped off with a top notch meal at the end. This was my first pasta making class and defintely won't be my last as Anthony make it a overall great experience that everyone should do at least once when they have the chance ♥️♥️
