Fresh pasta!

by chocaholic

I've only been here once but I was drawn in just with the fact they sell fresh pasta. I haven't tried it but definitely will soon. They also have a bakery, desserts, a meat/deli section, and lots of cheese. There's plenty of wine to choose from. They carry some unique cooking ingredients, fresh produce, limited dairy items, snacks, and also some cooking gadgets and bakeware. But the prices on some things are a bit steep so I'd probably buy the more commonly found items elsewhere. Staff is very friendly and energetic.

Excellent selection

by doctor_stu

Excellent selection of imported meats and cheeses, wines, local bakery items, oils and vinegars, and sweets. Fair prices.

• Pros: selection
• Cons: parking on Hawthorne

The home of gourmet cookware, fresh-made pasta and lots of Italian wine.

In Short
Gourmet cooks and people who like to eat gourmet food will find plenty of roads to a happy palate here. Along with handmade pasta, there's a huge selection of cheeses, mountains of glistening olives, desserts to die for and lots of takeout. Pastaworks also has one of the largest selections of Italian wines in the country. Serious cooks will drool over the cookware, which features top-of-the-line pans, double boilers, stockpots and more.
