The experience was so fun! We loved learning how to make pasta dough and different shaped noodles. Then we got to the 3 course meal and really loved the spicy vodka gnocchi & the ice cream sundae. I definitely would recommend this experience!

Dee’s had been on our short list for a while for places to try nearby in Queens and we were not disappointed. The food and the service was excellent. You can tell they serve a lot of regulars and we definitely plan to keep going. Special shoutout to Shane who was awesome as our waiter. I asked for a small side of the creamy pesto to take home with my leftover pasta and I expected a small side and he came out with a nice sized small container. Needless to say I was pleasantly surprised and will be using that sauce for more than just my pasta. Glad we finally went and 10/10 Highly recommend!
