Pasta Dal Cuore In Viaggio sulla Via Emilia Wine Dinner

UPDATE - This event has been postponed. Stay tuned for more information on the next event. 

Pasta Dal Cuore is kicking off summer with a new wine dinner, In Viaggio sulla Via Emilia. 

Pasta Dal Cuore

Shortly after Pasta Dal Cuore opened their pasta counter, they began working on their next project: putting a restaurant in the back of the store. The restaurant, which naturally focuses heavily on the house-made pasta, opened in June, offering classic but modern Italian dishes with specials that draw from local markets and what's in season.

The restaurant is on the smaller side, but comfortable and noise is kept to a minimum. It's equally fitting for date night, a family night, or just dinner with friends. It does get a little crowded on the weekends, so if you want to come with a group, I recommend a reservation. Keep in mind, it's also BYO, and the staff will happily set you up for whatever you bring.

The meal begins with a complimentary bread basket, accompanied by a dish or two of something to dip it in. In our case, we had a delicious eggplant caponata and seasoned olive oil. The bread basket is one of the best I've had in Jersey City, containing three kinds of bread including a special Sardinian flatbread reminiscent of an herbed cracker and a Tuscan foccacia-like bread, rich with slightly salted olive oil you could taste in each bite. Definitely take advantage of the variety and try a little of everything.

Pasta Dal Cuore Adds Take Out Lunch Specials

Pasta Dal Cuore is expanding their pasta options! They've been busy doing recipe testing and the store will now carry fresh take-out pasta lunches, available every Tuesday through Friday.
