PastaMania – Casa Della Pasta
Our chefs bring a touch of Italian tradition to every dish, using fresh, local ingredients and time-honored techniques.
Our Specialty
The Personalized Tagliera
At PastaMania, there’s no fixed menu, no pre-made taglieres that are the same for everyone. Here, it’s all about personal choice, craftsmanship, and an atmosphere that invites you to pause time.
You choose the ingredients. We cook it. You enjoy the wine, the conversation, and the experience.
How does it work?

While you relax at your table, we carefully craft your tagliere with finesse at the open counter.

The atmosphere is calm, the music soft, the wine chilled – and you know something special is on the way, something you’ve personally created.

Your tagliere arrives – a mosaic of flavors inviting you to share, savor, and create memories.
Pasta is made in-house, by hand, every single day
Italian Chef
Crafting Culinary Masterpieces
In our kitchen, a seasoned Italian master chef with over 30 years of experience leads the way. He doesn’t follow recipes on paper – he follows instinct, discipline, and a memory of taste.
From a perfectly cooked plate of rigatoni all’Amatriciana to ravioli filled with fresh ricotta, every detail is thoughtfully crafted. Because perfection isn’t accidental – it’s achieved every day.
