The class was great and you're able to get drinks while you're taking the class when you're done you get to sit at your table and eat whatever you ordered from the beginning which I do have to say the service wasn't as great as I would've liked, but that's also because they have a class going on as you're eating, so it was kind of noisy 
highly recommend the pasta making experience. Aprox $60 pp and you learn to make 4 types of pasta, have dough to take home to make more, and includes a 3 course dinner after with generous portions (and it's not preset, you get to choose from the menu!) you'd expect the food to be mid, but it's actually really good. super super cute - perf for a bday with a group or date night. Like genuinely got 3 meals per person from this LOL. Great service & vibe
Great time spent. Went with my husband for our anniversary dinner. Place is small but def cozy. Gives an intimate experience. Instructor was very sweet/ helpful and thorough with her class. She made it fun. Food and drink were delicious. I liked the structure of the restaurant. They take your order first, then the class starts. Once the class finishes, you're seated to eat, with little wait time.
Aunt Jake’s offers an immersive activity of pasta making and a full three-course meal! It was such a fun night. I went for date night but it’s also a great girls night or friend group activity. Our instructor Carmine was funny throughout our class and went through each detail. He made sure everyone was comfortable and the pasta making was point. Customer service was great as well!
Food and drinks were 10/10. I had the spicy passion fruit margarita and my fiance had the sangria both were really good. For our apps we had the champagne mussels and calamari. Our entrees we got the chicken parmigiana and rigatoni with spicy allá vodka sauce. Desert we had the sundae. I will definitely come back. All this for $60 per person! Can’t beat that.

Absolutely loved my night at Aunt Jake’s tonight for my birthday! We got there 20mins early but was seated promptly. We placed our order for dinner from the prefix menu (which had many options to choose from). Hubby and I got the mussels, calamari, and I created my own entree by selecting mafalda and pesto with shrimp (+$8). He got spaghetti and cacio e pepe with chicken (+$6). Dessert was two choices, donuts or mason jar sunday so we got one of each. Once the dinner orders were in, we were invited up to the center counter which was already set up with pasta making ingredients. My husband and I were lucky to stand next to our instructor, Carmine, and the experience began. It was super fun, great atmosphere and informative! Made fresh pasta for the first time and Carmine made the experience easy and enjoyable. We got to pack the pasta we made to bring home. After the class, we had dinner and it was so so good! I was excited for the experience but the meal was the cherry on top with great portion sizes that we both left stuffed. We also got their spicy passion fruit margaritas which was a bar quality cocktail. The price is super affordable for such a great experience and I would definitely recommend Aunt Jake’s to others!!

The food was very good! The servers were incredibly nice and very accommodating. Chef Carmine was a bit condescending and seemed irritated while teaching the class. I think it would have been a more pleasurable experience if the Chef was a bit more friendlier.

I absolutely loved the pasta-making experience at Aunt Jake's! It was such a unique and enjoyable activity — definitely something I've been wanting to cross off my bucket list. I got to celebrate my birthday with a few close friends, and making fresh pasta together made it even more special. The class itself was awesome — the instructors were so thorough, patient, and kind, making sure everyone felt comfortable and confident throughout the process. I'd highly recommend this experience to anyone looking for something fun, hands-on, and memorable!

Great experience and delicious food! The instructor, Joe, was fantastic and we loved all the food!
Went for my birthday with my friends and we all had the best night! Carmine and the staff are so nice and energetic. The pasta class was fun and interactive and the food was amazing. 11/10 experience
The pasta making class was phenomenal! Our instructor, Carmine, made the entire process easy and fun. The meal afterwards is delicious and I highly recommend the mason jar dessert! The pasta you get to take home tastes restaurant quality and so fresh. Highly recommend for a date night or a fun activity with friends.
Loved this place overall! The food was amazing, and the service was so warm and welcoming. Would love to go back.

This was the most amazing experience I’ve ever had in NYC. Joe was a phenomenal instructor. He was patient and went around to make sure that everyone was not only comfortable but confident in their pasta making abilities. The food after class was amazing. Heavenly even. I had the chicken parm. Slightly spicy just like I like it. Will definitely be back.
Thanks again Joe!
