Pasta Fresca Ravioli

This place is AMAZING! I get all antipasto platter ingredients here every holiday. Everything they make is so good. Their bread is always fresh. They have the most deliscious lemon drop cookies. Its a family owned business and everyone in there is super nice.

Pasta Fresca is a first rate genuine Italian food store. At first glance it appears to focus on bread (in the front window) and cookies (in the entire first showcase) but PF also has some of the best fresh mozzarella and sausage in Brooklyn. Considering that it is a block away from Faicco’s Pork Store, that’s saying a lot. PF’s prepared foods are excellent and they often carry Sicilian cheeses. Yesterday I bought a Sardinian sheep’s milk cheese infused with truffles. Don’t pass up this store.

A 1 to 5 scale does not do Pasta Fresca justice. From the fresh baked breads, rolls and cookies to the freshly made prepared foods and home made sauces and pastas… Pasta Fresca has it all and everything is absolutely delicious. It’s my favorite Saturday or Sunday stop. You owe it to yourself to stop in and treat yourself and your family.

Went here a couple days ago. Got cookies, tortellini and ravioli. Everything was phenomenal. I’ve been looking for a good ravioli and tortellini place for a while. The cookies? Out of this moist, delicious, fantastic. Wonderful service. They were also very welcoming to my 3 year old son. I give it over 5 stars!

The very best. true fresh delicious authentic Italian foods .from pasta, sauces, ravioli… and much more. friendly family owned hard working good people. a neighborhood treasure.

Ordered the lemon drop cookies on amazon! They are so delicious and moist and flavorful! Can’t wait to take a trip to Brooklyn to try more food! !!

Just had trays of food catered from them. Everything came hot and ready to go. The food was amazing! Highly recommend them.

I moved out of NY over 10 years ago but I will make the trip to Pasta Fresca every single time I’m in the area. The bread is always still warm when I pick it off the shelf and everything from the prepared food to the fresh pasta to the array of cookies are great! I read the other reviews, I’ve never had anything other than a pleasant experience and was always helped by a very welcoming person at the counter. And if you like lemon drop cookies, this is the place to get them. I was in there again today and I’m already regretting not picking up extra of everything I bought…

The name should be changed to bread fresco thats about the only thing worth going there for. I was there on Monday this place was recommended by a friend so i gave it a try. I bought 3 boxes of large cheese ravioli and 2 packages of cheese manicotti. THEY WERE INEDIBLE. After cooking the ravioli I noticed the centers were hard and brown. After tasting the raviolis I had to spit them out. These raviolis were just awful. Since I couldn’t eat them I made the manicotti, which i learned was a big mistake. They were even worse than the raviolis. I was forced to throw them out too. I believe these pastas were old. they also seemed as if they were frozen and then defrosted to give an appearance as if they were fresh. My only advise is to pass this place up and go to Pastosa where you are guaranteed FRESH PASTA !!! all the time.

Friendly service
Must get the lemon drop cookies!!!
They also have italian hot food, fresh cheese, bread etc.

Wonderful food. The bread and pasta sauces are amazing. No idea who the negative reviews are talking about but every time i have gone there the staff has been amazingly friendly and helpful. One time I arrived at 7:05pm when they were supposed to close at 7pm. The had the store mostly shut down, swept up, etc. They stayed open and even un-​did some of the stuff they needed to do to shut down the store just so I could shop for dinner. The jarred sauces are home made in Ball Jars. Unbelievably fresh and tasty. The bread is always soft and wonderful. Their mozzarella cheese is fresh and home made, soft, delicious, etc. Even their pesto is great, we use it when making pesto garlic bread. Overall cant say enough good things. Great food, great staff, and almost all of it is home made. So glad it is in the ‘hood.

Do you want fresh, authentic Italian bread, pasta, cheese, sauces and pastries? Well, then get your ass out of Pathmark and into Pasta Fresca Ravioli. This place is a dream come true to those that understand quality.
Their bread is definitely one of the top 3 in Brooklyn.
I read someone saying that the owner isn’t friendly. This is completely untrue. I’ve been coming here for a few years and I can honestly say, if you take his Old World Sicilian demeanor as unfriendly than you don’t know Brooklyn! This guy knows what he’s doing and has brought amazing-​ness to Brooklyn from his motherland. He is part of what makes Brooklyn so wonderful. Consider yourself lucky!
Check it out now!

i have been in the neighborhood for many years. I took one star away because Fiacco’s Pork store is a block away. (that is a 5 star pork store) The second star was removed because of the owner. I am talking about the father. There is a neighbor saying about the father, «It’s a little over». He slices cold cuts over the amount your ordered, forever. If you order a ¼ lb. you get almost a half each and every time. He adds extra wax paper to increase the weight. (this is not just my opinion this is from everyone in the area). The bread is great but there has been many times he stuffs the bread from yesterday with the fresh bread, so there is a chance you could go home with yesterdays bread. I try to go in only when the Spanish guy is working. He has been there for a long time and he is great. as for the son’s they are OK but the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.

I used to come here every week when I lived in Brooklyn, I feel they are in the top 3 for Italian bread and the Ravioli’s are awesome! I was never a fan of their meats and their prosciutto bread is not that good anymore so that’s why I couldn’t give them 4 stars but still a good place to get your eats on!

How do you rate a store that has great products but an owner with a shocking attitude? I suppose you take both into consideration. For that reason, I rate this store much lower than it deserves.
«…we can offer… delicious products in a friendly environment.» Only part of that statement is true. Their food is delicious, so one point for telling the truth. But the older man who works here is ANYTHING but friendly, so I’m taking that point right back.
The older man has been unjustifiably nasty to me and my family in the past. My father once asked for a plastic container to put his desserts in and the old guy responded by sucking his teeth and saying my father is a drunk. The kicker for me was when I ordered cold cuts, then wanted to order one more thing and he yelled at me, «now you wait!» and stomped over to the register. I was so confused! Is there a cold cut maximum? I walked out of there and left the food behind. I wasn’t eating his negative energy! I’ve since been in here twice in about 3 years. I went in because I saw he wasn’t there (don’t judge me). I felt guilty both times.
To be fair, the Hispanic looking gentlemen who worked the counter couldn’t be more pleasant. And the sons have always been nice to me (great food at their restaurant next door). They also have the best cannolis I’ve tasted (tied with Grandmas Bakery on 73^rd and 13^th Ave) with smooth filling, not that gritty stuff.
But this is the problem with poor customer service, it’s been a while and I still remember that poor treatment. I know people that simply will not go in here based on their own experiences. It’s for you to decide which you need more — Products or Service.

The bread is awesome. It is always fresh and I like that it is self service so I can take my time to select exactly what I want.

Best prosciutto sandwich in Brooklyn!!!

Fresh pasta and fresh bread, i think they are owned by the same people who run Mama Rao’s next door.
No complaints to speak of, shop with confidence

Just as the name suggests, this is great «fresh pasta.» This is the first place my number one was able to find parpadelle since returning from Italy, so it holds a bit of meaning. True; it’s a bit pricy. But we choose Pasta Fresca for those special items on our grocery list.
