• Contemporary Italian • Upper East Side
Booked 23 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.

    My cousin, my daughter and I had the pleasure of being served by Fariz at The Plaza Palm Court, and I cannot say enough good things about him! From the moment we were seated, he was friendly, inviting, and made our entire experience truly memorable. Fariz ensured that we had everything we needed in a timely manner and took the time to thoughtfully explain the menu and all the available options. His attention to detail and warm demeanor made us feel so well cared for throughout our visit. If you're planning a trip to The Plaza, I highly recommend asking for Fariz—you won't be disappointed. He truly elevates the dining experience and leaves a lasting impression!

    Knowledgeable staff, very attentive service in a lovely venue. Our server graciously accommodated special requests and we found all courses of the tea service to be fresh & flavorful. We’ve had afternoon tea at many places, but this was the best so far.

    We had the most amazing time at Aunt Jake's Pasta Making Experience. From the moment we arrived, I just knew it was going to be fun! The chef who taught us about pasta was funny yet informative; the atmosphere was cozy; the staff was friendly and attentive; and the food was delicious. The process was easy to understand and very well organized. What a great date and a wonderful way to start the new year. Highly highly highly recommend! :)
