Pasta King

Such good stuff ! Pesto and meat lasagna are great (right consistency of ingredients not too much of any one layer, perfection) …and I just love having stuff that is home made in my freezer and ready to go (and I didn’t even have to make it myself) … It’s as if my mom came and cooked for me and left yummy things in the freezer !!
Super nice people and I feel good about supporting a family business ! Long Live Pasta King !

Pasta King is like a part of your family, except without the cheek squeezing. If you’ve attended any local fundraisers or the county fair, you’ve no doubt enjoyed some delicious Pasta King food.
I don’t care if this sounds cheesy, but I think it’s the love that makes the food so hearty and good. It hits the spot and leaves you feeling good. As a younger person, I’ve been a loyal fan of the meat sauce but this is also how I got my first taste of pesto. I’m now a pesto lover for life. And seeing that Pasta King is present at so many fundraisers and supporting so many great causes just makes me love it all that much more.
If you like feeling good about eating food made by people who love doing good, then you will feel great about eating the hearty goodness that is Pasta King food.

I am a paleo woman. Haven’t eaten corn in over a year. No wheat, either, so pasta is out. Never did like it much, anyway
But then I attended a family gathering catered by The Pasta King. What are you gonna do? I was going to abstain. Or rather, that was my plan before I had just enough Bella Sonoma vino to loosen the inhibitions.
And then, I saw it… Temptation in a Foil Pan: Garlic Polenta.
Paleo backslide, thy name is POLENTA.
Who knew it could be so awesome??? Creamy garlic goodness. I had several pieces. (Who am I kidding? I had several plates of the stuff.)
I may regret this transgression later but it’s been several hours already and I know would do it again — if only my greedy family members hadn’t eaten every last bit of the leftovers.
I don’t live here in Cotati, so I may yet save my paleo soul if I avoid The Righteousness That Is Pasta King Polenta.

Just had Pasta King cater a family party. We picked up the food and it was packed in a returnable hot box and ice chest to keep everything piping hot! How easy is that? And the price… you will never find anything more affordable. And to top it off, there was more food than our guests could eat.

Oh Pasta King. I had no idea that you even existed until I visited a friend in Rohnert Park. Your rigatoni pesto warmed me right down to my toes, and your polenta was a culinary revelation. I didn’t know how much garlicky, cheesy, creamy goodness could go into a baked polenta. Thank you for providing such delicious food – food clearly cooked with love – for our hungry bellies.

This is a review for Pasta King’s frozen selections sold in major stores.
I recently purchased a tin of the Pasta King’s polenta with marinara sauce from Raley’s in El Sobrante and boy was it tasty — not to mention gluten free and packed full of fresh ingredients with a very small ingredients list!
The only thing that would have made this better was if the polenta was topped with a meat sauce instead of a marinara.
Ingredients include yellow cornmeal, water, marinara sauce (tomatoes, water, onions, carrots, celery, soya oil, garlic, Italian seasonings, salt and pepper), mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses.
The only thing that would have made the ingredients list better was if they were organic and olive oil was used instead of soya oil.
I’m looking forward to trying out the other polenta dishes offered by Pasta King. I hope my grocer decides to stock them!
Yum, yum!

Art Ibleto is flat out a devoted Italian food artist — GREAT pasta – Best part is the honor system shopping — if they are not nearby, you just get what you want and leave the money on the table ! Had them cook 15 Tri-​tips for a party last year and the meat was PERFECT !! They are good !

THE PASTA KING! Holds true to the name!
While attending the Festa Dei Morti in Colma, CA, I had the honor of trying a plate of pesto and it was heavenly! Now I know where I have to drive to get some more of this delicious pasta, Cotati here I come!

It was simply an accident that I grabbed a pan of Art Ibleto’s polenta from the freezer case at Fircrest Market in Sebastopol (I thought I was reaching for his pesto lasagna (which I love)). I wasn’t a fan of polenta until last Friday when I tried the Pasta King’s version. It’s easy to bake and has just the right amount of veggies, garlic, spices, marinara, and cheese — your house will smell delicious and your guests will think you made it from scratch! Each container of pre-​made lasagna or polenta that you buy from a store dishes up 4 hearty and savory servings.
Here’s a tip… if you buy Pasta King products from Fircrest Market in Sebastopol or the Pasta King store on Stoney Point Rd. it will cost you about $ 3 less than buying from other retail outlets in Sonoma County.
Buon Appettio!

THE PASTA KING ART IBLETO!
This place is so cool I can’t believe it and so is the family, all of them. You just have to go there is all I can say, the best food to go hands down any place.
LONG LIVE THE PASTA KING!

the take-​and-​bake pesto lasagna is BOMB.

Pasta King used to cater everything in town, all the sport fundraisers, all the little festivals, the fair, Wednesday market, etc. They have the best pesto, and their salad (as plain as it is) hits the mark with the perfectly toasted garlic bread.
I didn’t know that you could go into their little place in Cotati and actually buy stuff from them! I’ll be stopping by!

This place is so cool!
I have lived up here for a million years and always driven by the Ibleto Pasta King’s place, but for reasons unknown to me, I’ve never stopped in. So, yesterday I did!
Set in the middle of horse and cattle ranches, on the outskirts of Cotati, they make all their own pasta and sauces and sell it right out of the production area.
I bought a 2lb. meat lasagna, a 2 lb. meat polenta, a package of meat ravioli’s and a 15 oz tub of meat sauce.
Price? … $ 18! Can you GET that?! $ 6 per meal.
That’s UNHEARD of!!!
… and the taste, you ask? Delicious! Mouthwatering.
No primping or spicing needed. It’s fully cooked and ready to go into the oven.
The most endearing part is, no one is usually in the store to take your money. This operation is done on the honor system. The sign on the wall says «We Trust You, Leave Your Money On The Desk. Thank You» So, you calculate your order yourself and leave the money under a post-​it note on the desk.
Adorable.
