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.

Loved the pasta class, excellent and funny instructor. Made it simple to follow. Then we were immediately seated and the appetizer came out. What ruined most of our 1.5 hour dining experience was the fact that we were seated next to windows (which seem to open in the warm weather) so the lots of drafts coming in and we were shaking after appetizers. There was nowhere else to move to because it was super tight with the other patrons. It’s a tiny restaurant. They kept apologizing for the tightness (but that must be how they make their money by packing in as many bodies). After appetizers we put on our earmuffs our puffy winter coats to eat dinner and dessert. It was awful. But food was delicious! No complaints about that. Came out hot.
