If you want authentic homemade pasta, and pastries head on over to Il Pastificio. Let's start with…read morethe pasta for five or seven dollars per pound you have some of the best homemade pasta on the East Coast. The pasta is displayed in airtight sealed packages so you have the utmost freshest pasta possible when you go home. I've tried different styles of their pasta, and each one was better than the last. I definitely give High praise when it comes to pasta making since I do not have the patience for the time consuming process. I would suggest everyone come here and try the pasta at least one time you will be hooked. Magnificent.!! Now for the pastries. What can you say all the crusts are light, soft when needed, crispy and crunchy on the others. I mean it's basically cookie and pastry perfection here. The cookies are sold by the pound you can just ask for a mixed batch or pick your own mix and match. I am not sure how much per pound the cookies are my last purchase was 1 pound of cookies and two grapefruit waters and it came to $29. This is a freaking bargain for the quality of this pastry. The only downside about the pastry is that you can only eat so many cookies and at this location, you want every single one. My only advice is to come multiple times a week and grab a pound and see if it lasts you a day or two. Unfortunately, the pastry is so delectable that you want to eat them all in one sitting. Grab a pound and see how long you can make it last. Approximately two hours at my house. With everything said above, you think that would be it but there's more! Homemade gelato you heard that right homemade gelato. Already scooped into beautiful cups with fruit, different flavors and yes, 100% homemade again! Coming into this business is like taking a flight to Italy and walking down a small alley with local shops. There is too much going on for my taste buds in this store. Everything is amazing. So not to extend this fabulous review, but there's still more.... I haven't had the opportunity or the need to purchase a jar of sauce, but with the quality of every single thing that is sold under this roof, I am sure the sauce is amazing. They have jars of sauce so you can go home and make a pasta dinner in a few minutes just boil up your pasta and warm up the sauce. I definitely will try a jar one day. But I already know that it's delicious. Yes, there is more... I haven't had a chance to indulge in a sandwich at this location however it is on my agenda. I know they have sandwiches because there's actually a sandwich sign out front when I drive by once in a while that says they have sandwiches. I will save that for another day. I can only foresee a fabulous fresh sandwich with amazing taste coming out of this location. I look forward to this adventure in the future. The location is always clean. Well kept organized and set up super cute. There is always some kind of little display going on in the main lobby. As for the service, you can't get any better service than at this location because the people serving, you are actually the owners. Sandra is one of the most happiest, beautiful young ladies. I've met in so long. She is so upbeat, polite, happy and beautiful that you almost forget about the pastries when you speaking with her. And her dad, he is the master creator of the pasta.. and I'm sure most of the other things in the store. The both of them make your experience so pleasurable that it is amazing that you get the quality the taste the personalities of these two all at one location. I would say this is my favorite pastry/pasta shop 100%. The only negatives I see about this business is of course trying to get a parking spot on Broadway Everett, make sure you don't bypass make a few circles or go down the side street because you definitely need to go in here and give your taste buds the pleasure of everything inside this shop. Secondly, if you are handicapped, FYI, there are about 8/10 steps to get up into the shop. And the last which is not a negative it's just more of an anticipation one of my favorite cookies that you can't get anywhere is homemade here. I've been eating these since I was a kid and they are extremely hard to find. Nobody makes them unless you have an aunt or grandmother that actually makes them. If your around Il Pastificio during the holidays, you definitely want to come in and try the homemade Fennel Taralli. Next time I see them I'm grabbing three or four bags. I'm gonna hoard them!!! If you made it this far in the review, God bless you, go buy some some pastry, some pasta or just stop by for a sandwich or a gelato definitely support this business. Not many left like it. So please support them.. I give them 10 stars on a 5 star scale, which is impossible for a mom pop shop, but they deserve it.

A few days ago, I went to Roma's to buy some scali bread, and I also selected two turnovers. The…read morewoman who assisted me asked if I had ever been there before. Okay, I lied and said no. She then told me "we've been here for 55 years." (maybe, but I happen to know that the business changed ownership some years ago). I paid with a credit card and walked to my car. Looking at the receipt I realized it was way off. I went back to her. She insisted on looking in the bag to see my items, then checked her register. She had overcharged me $12.90. !!! I asked her to refund the charge and start over, but she said that she couldn't do that, so instead refunded two separate false charges to my card individually. I got an apology, I think, but she was acting so busy and bothered so I just left. By the way, the turnovers were mediocre. Pastry, in my opinion, should be light and flaky. These were not.

Some you can get dried some fresh. They also have quite a few varieties of sauces, many varieties of ravioli, stuffed shells (which I buy and store in the freezer for those nights I don't want to cook). I throw them in a casserole with some sauce and mozzarella cheese and dinners ready in no time. You can also buy their pasta and sauces at your favorite market. Their website shows what markets sell their pasta. This is a family run business so quality of their product never varies. They have been making pasta since 1947. Their pasta has the perfect chew when eating. After you eat their pasta you will never buy that store brand again!
