    Amazing and unique restaurant find in NYC these days. The owner is warm, present and passionate about authentic fresh food and hands on hospitality. The food is so fresh and delicious. The drinks are fun and the wine list will offer something for everyone. The price point is very reasonable and it is truly a gem in the Big Apple!

    this is the first time I went to the house of pasta. I thought that the menu had a good variety of different times of pasta, but yet wasn’t too big. The pasta was cooked Perfectly great service portion size not too small not too big. It was perfect great value for the money definitely must go.

    What a wonderful experience at the House of Pasta. From the beautiful decor, to the friendly and attentive staff and of course the food. The food was delicious. We had a variety of appetizers including the octopus, calamari, some meatballs and more. All delicious. For dinner we had chicken and pasta and a variety of other pastas. All delicious. The drinks were amazing! I couldn’t get enough of the spicy mezcalita. Thank you. Definitely will come again.

    We had a lovely dinner at House of Pasta. All the dishes were excellent. And a good value. We had the meatballs, the pasta with a truffle cream sauce, the chicken Milanese , and the power salad. The pasta was cooked al dente and was not over sauced. The weight staff, Jasmine, was very accommodating and helpful. The wines were excellent. We are definitely coming back.

    I always enjoy dining at House of Pasta, which is in my East Village neighborhood. I’ve never had a bad meal and though once or twice I felt like perhaps my pasta dish could’ve been hotter in temperature, it is always delicious. Service is attentive and prices are reasonable for what you get. I recommend it to everyone and bring friends with me.

    Un restaurante sin las pretensiones de los muy famosos italianos. Pero con mucho mejor calidad de alimentos. De los mejores en Nueva York

    The food was amazing. The service was extraordinary and the staff was wonderful. The veal chop was huge as were the other menu items ordered. It was one of the best meals we have had in ages and the service made it even more enjoyable. I will certainly look forward to eating here again!
