A sad day for Fuzi fans. After 3 years, they have closed. But the good news is there is an opportunity to own Fuzi which comes with the original chef and staff. They were known for their Fuzi pasta. Fuzi (Croatian), is a traditional Istrian pasta from Croatia and Slovenia. The pasta is cut into diamond shapes and folded to look like bows. Usually served with a mild red veal sauce. Everyone here is super friendly! Hope everything works out for them. This area could really use a nice homey Italian place. read more

I can't believe I just found out about this place after living only 5 minutes away for the last 6 years...... This place is gooood, local, friendly and delicious. They started us with some bread and marinara sauce and the sauce definitely opened up our appetite and had us anticipating of what's to come. Then the to-die-for appetizer came, the mushroom ricotta cheese thinging it's sooooooooooooooooooo freaking delicious!!!!! I can't explain it, you'll have to put that cheese on the baked bread, then eat it together with the mushrooms to experience what we experienced.... Soooo good!! And we also had a bowl of meatballs lol it was good~ but nothing to write home about. Now for the Pastas, I got their signature Fuzi folding noodles with veal sauce and my daughter got the rigatoni à la vodka. They were both great!!! Their pasta has great texture with a fantastic clean taste and the sauce were subtle, fragrant and delicious. Not heavy and sweet like some of those normal Italian restaurants, this is definitely an A tier restaurant hidden in a local community. I would come here at least once a week from now on. Deliciousness: Friendliness: Price: (the lower the cheaper) Cleanliness : read more

Based on takeout. Food arrived pretty quickly. I did the pasta, salad or soup, plus drink. I did the vodka sauce. It was a bit salty at first bite but it wasn't bad overall. Would like to try something else from here read more

A local spot tucked away in Fresh Meadows - Fuzi Pasta was recommended by a friend and definitely hit the spot. We were started off with some house bread and delicious tomato soup dip. We had their shaved brussel sprouts appetizer - tasty. I had special fuzi pasta which was hearty and tasty with some veal whereas my friend had their seasonal special - a pumpkin pasta. The restaurant was very homey waited by a kind college student server who was very courteous and attentive. The server also told us ahead of time when ordering our biscotti dessert that they would offer biscotti at the end of the meal. I found the panna cotta that I ordered intriguing and a great bow on the top (pop rocks with panna cotta... who would have thought - quite a fun dessert!) Homely, local, warm - a nice small Italian joint without too much fanfare. Perfect for a great meal without the crowds as long as you are willing to make the trek out to the quieter Fresh Meadows. read more

I'm addicted to fuzi sauce. This is croatian restaurant and the owner Franco is a very kind gentleman who has visibly poured all of his energy into this outstanding menu and recipes. I couldn't pick one entree, my entire family was sharing bites of each other plates because we just had to keep trying everything! I was craving gnocchi and was beyond pleased with the cheeses and walnut in my dish. 10/10! The lemonade was house made and tasted way more refreshing and light than what you think of lemonade. The bread and fuzi sauce is just addicting. We couldn't stop eating!!! You must go!!!!! GO!!!! read more

Fuzi Pasta Co - spinach gnocchi gorgonzola - Pasta Shops Near Me - Fresh Meadows, New York

Always a pleasure visiting Fuzi. My boyfriend and I wanted a nice, non-fast food bite before catching a movie and I immediately thought of Fuzi. I had their "simple pasta" --rigatoni arrabiatta with chicken--that was far from "simple." My man had their pesto tortellini special and loved how fresh and light the pesto was. For dessert, their panna cotta is so unique with the added pop rocks, and I can vouch for their tiramisu as well. This spot has a very home-y feel. The whole restaurant seats about 30 (I would say) and I am always treated like family when I'm here. read more

What a find! Stopped in while visiting from out of the area. Hubby and I were looking for some real-deal Italian comfort food. Fuzi hit the spot. The food was fresh, hand made, and delicious. At the recommendation from locals near us, we started with the mozzarella caprese and meatballs. For main dishes we tried the spinach gnocchi and the rigatoni Alfredo-ish (as they call it). Excellent! There were also daily deals that seemed to be available. Vegetarian options are on the menu. The space is inviting, though on the smaller side. It may be tight for a wheelchair, but doable. Staff was attentive and friendly. read more

3.5 really. It was easy to make a reservation for 9 people the day before. Although we took up half of the restaurant, almost.. there was only 1 waitress and at times it was too much for her... she walked away to help another table in the middle of taking out orders, took our appetizer plates and cutlery, brought out the mains, but forgot replacement cutlery... it was hard to order more drinks.. little thinks like that.. Okay, food.. the charcuterie was okay... the meats felt like they could have done better if they used Costco meats... the cheeses were good, the olives were good. The focaccia was delicious. The burata was yummy. They were great about mixing up the different pastas people wanted with different sauces... the fresh pastas were all good they had a special with lamb meat balls was the only one that wasn't good. The lemon shrimp parpaddelle was the group favorite...I personally love the arrabiata sauce... it is spicy... The tiramasu looked pretty... that's a fast as i would go though... read more

I've been here twice with my girlfriend. Our first visit was very good, with attentive service and flavorful food. Unfortunately, our second visit didn't match that experience. Service felt less attentive, the bread was initially cold, and our main dish lacked the flavor we remembered. There was also a longer-than-expected wait for our food despite the restaurant not being very busy. We're open to giving it another try and hope it returns to the quality of our first visit. read more

I've had difficulty finding good pasta in the area and was hoping this would be my ticket, but ultimately it was not. Let me start by saying I ordered takeout and the meal smelled incredible. Which made it all the more disappointing when it didn't taste incredible. -Little gem caesar salad: I know it's a little gem salad but I felt like it could have come a bit more mixed as a takeout option. The croutons are just four large croutons, which as a takeout option doesn't really seem to make sense. And as someone who eats a far amount of caesar salad, this was one of the thinnest caesar dressings I've had and definitely prefer it to have a bit more substance. - Ricotta cavatelli: This leaked everywhere out of the packaging so I'm not sure if it would have been more flavorful with actual sauce but by the time we ate it, it was pretty dry. The cavatelli was nothing special but without sauce, the broccoli rabe was just so bitter. I also can't imagine this dish without the optional $4.99 sausage, which should just be included not as an upcharge. - Chicken vodka sauce rigatoni: This was fine. The sauce didn't really blow me away. The pieces of chicken were a bit bigger than I would expect for a pasta dish like this. and the pasta itself was nothing notable. read more

Excellent small local spot in Fresh Meadows! Quaint space where you are greeted by fresh focaccia bread and sauce for dipping. The menu consists of an array of pasta dishes. All of our dishes were prepared well, with delicious taste and flavor. Pastas were delicious and servings were plentiful. Prices are fair and pastas are a great value in comparison to other Italian restaurants. There were desserts being prepared and we opted for two: tiramisu and the bomba lava cake. Both were delicious. Our waitress was very helpful and friendly. read more

Excellent food. Excellent service. The perfect small scale neighborhood Italian experience.

A local gem! Went in for Friday lunch in August. Outside seating available. We were welcomed with a smile and friendly host/waitress. The interior was very simple, clean, and reminded me of a Thai food restaraunt until you see the woman-eating-pasta artwork. Upon the waitress recommendations, we ordered - Soup of the week - Italian style egg drop soup Mushroom w/whipped cheese in honey Chicken pasta Salmon Risotto Overall everything was tasty! Especially, the mushroom app. The chicken pasta was a little underdone, and the risotto wasn't as sticky of a consistency as they usually are. Price to portion is within standard. Looking forward to returning! read more

What a fantastic local find! Thanks to my Yelp buddy Chun M. For the suggestion. Hand made pasta and hospitality are what makes this place so great. Jenny my server during this lunch visit, was super friendly and welcoming. She sat me down at a table for four even though we were only a party of two (how did she know we were going to order so much that we needed the second table?!) LOL that's how we roll. Complimentary bread and dipping sauce along with a cold carafe of tap water magically appeared within minutes of being seated and menus galore. There was a drink menu, daily specials menu and the usual lunch menu. My friend and I decided to hit up a few categories to make sure we covered an array of things to try. That's how we try out new spots to test dishes and hit up an array of options. Everything was delicious! And everything was al dente. Normally not the case but each pasta while different, was freshly made and each even had a different sauce. That was a pleasant surprise. The favorite was the Osso bucco and the Fuzi signature dessert!! Pretty much everything was so good and flavorful, I would recommend it all. The appetizer that was most memorable was the mushroom and cheese spread. And the vegetables. Sounds simple but it was simply the best! read more

I can't believe Fuzi Pasta is this hidden. A very small restaurant right off Utopia. I didn't really know what to expect but I am grateful for my friend's suggestion. There were six of us and we all got something different so we each got to sample a little of everything. It's universally agreed that the pasta's consistency was absolutely perfect. The sauces were hit or miss. I had the cacio e pepe and while it was tasty...you just can't beat a classic pepper cheese saucy. The sauce here was a bit too silky for my liking. that was pretty much my only complaint. The service was very friendly and they were very courteous. The prices were also very fair and I hope it stays that way. read more

The hole-in-the-wall to rival all hole-in-the-walls: Fuzi is home to some of the freshest Italian cuisine in the city, and you'd never guess it by looking into the window. Forget the bells and whistles - the food paints a much greater picture than the grandest of restaurants. Before coming, a friend recommended we try the 11375 Mushrooms, and I'm going to invite them out for that recommendation alone. Fresh, flavorful mushrooms with whipped ricotta is the combo I never knew I needed. Main course (perfectly portioned by the way) was absolutely stellar. Big fan of the rigatoni alla vodka, but the star of the show was the spinach and Asiago ravioli. Anyone and everyone who's stuck in the loop of boxed rav must try this dish. I don't think I can ever eat ravioli anywhere else. Cooked al dente, accompanied by a rich, slightly sweet sauce, and a filling that was just so flavorful, creamy and umami ...and I got all that from having just one bite! Ash, our server, is the image you'll find next to the definition of "hospitality" in the dictionary. She offered incredible recommendations (the stracciatella gelato was an incredible way to end the meal), checked in on us frequently, and was an absolute joy to be around. Franco came out at the very end and offered us some of the best biscotti I've had in the city as a final touch. This is a guy who puts absolute love and care into every aspect of his business, and it shows! I will travel through rain, snow, and sleet for this place. If a tornado were to sweep me up and drop me off in the land of Oz, I would click my heels three times and ask to be sent to Fuzi. Run - don't walk! - to this place! read more

I've been hearing all the hype around Fuzi, so was excited to give it a try. We opt'd for take out and ordered directly from their website. The posted menu has more options than what is actually available to order. I opt'd for the Rigatoni with Vodka Sauce and Grilled Chicken. The pasta was cooked well and it was a solid Vodka Sauce; the grilled chicken was a bit underwhelming and on the dry side. We ordered the Fuzi with Mushrooms, but actually received the version with the meat. Not a huge issue since we are not vegetarians but could have been a problem for others. This dish is their signature and I had some high expectations for it, I found it kind of meh. Not a ton of flavor and the slow cooked meat was quite chewy. Overall I can see this being a great addition to the neighborhood, but for me, it not worth the drive over. read more

Fuzi Pasta Co - Rigatoni Vodka Sauce with chicken - Pasta Shops Near Me - Fresh Meadows, New York

Fuzi is located on what I call the forgotten shopping block of Fresh Meadow Lane - I always find it a bit quiet around here (There is a lot of cool stuff - Lucky Dog tattoos, Amitabha vegetarian spot, and laundromat where I watch people carrying laundry bags that are twice the size of themselves!), but perhaps Fuzi will turn that around because when I visited on a Saturday afternoon a steady stream of customers were coming in. The space is nicely set up with cushy benches around the space with white and red walls with photos of famous and cuteness slurping up twisted forkfuls of pasta - I like their style (Fuzi and the photos)! We sat by the window (I noticed a couple of bees on the inside of the window - they should have that checked). The server was friendly as she brough out our drinks - a local beer from Glendale's Finback for me and Arnold Palmer for my partner in crime along with a starter of Italian bread and fresh tomato sauce. I like this - it reminded me of going to family dinner and you dip some bread in the sauce pot. We ordered a special to start - figs and gorgonzola, it came drizzled with honey on a bed of arugula. Prosciutto toast was on garlicky toasted bread. We were asked if we wanted to add burrata, but didn't see the point since it already has gorgonzola. Incidentally I heard a microwave door and beeps right before this came out which turned me off a bit, but regardless this dish was delicious - the figs sweet, warm and ripe contrasted with the funky gorgonzola. The prosciutto toast was full flavored. I really enjoyed Ricotta Cavatelli v / broccoli rabe, hazelnut "pangrattatto". I usually see this combo with orecchiette ("little ears"), but the cavatelli were great, like "big ears" made al dente. The sausage was the sweet Italian kind and I could taste the fennel. The hazelnut pangrattato added a nice crunchy texture to the dish. I tried the "simple" spaghetti with pesto and thought it was really good - creamy with the brightness of the basil. For dessert, Pizzelle "chips n dip" pistachio cannoli cream was a generous scoop enough for two to share which made for a satisfying end. Overall I really enjoyed it here - it feels like a cozy neighborhood spot with reasonable prices for the quality food being served. I thought the service was friendly and attentive so I left a generous cash tip - I was a little disappointed to see the exact amount I left added to my credit card posting amount (check your statements!). I emailed and Fuzi sincerely apologized reversing the charge immediately - I chalk it up to an inadvertent error. Regardless of the minor issues I will be back to sample more of their delicious pastas! read more

Small space with couple outdoor seats. The tables are comfortably spaced. Was in the mood for pesto pasta and have been meaning to check out this spot since it opened a few months ago. The service is nice and informative The Arnold Palmer w/ unsweetened tea has a good balance of sour lemonade and tea! Would try it with the sweet tea next time to see how much sweeter it is. The complimentary bread and sauce are great starts. The bread is soft and soaks up the sauce, which has a bit of saltines to it along with a sweet tomato flavor. The special Fig and Gorgonzola with Prosciutto Toast was a delicious choice. The figs were fresh, and the toast was done well. It had a good balance of ingredients except only 1 slice of prosciutto... Didn't feel like that added much to the dish. The "Simple" Pasta - Spaghetti with Pesto. It's a creamier pesto, which I like it as it coats the pasta thoroughly. It has a wonderfully strong basil flavor. The pasta was al dente and went with the pesto. You can add red pepper flakes and/or grated cheese to the your pasta. The cheese didn't add much, if anything at all. The Pizzelle 'Chips'N'Dip' was good ending. A lot of cream to scoop up with the crisp cannoli shells. Not too sweet, with the added dark chocolate chunks to give more texture. Overall a solid neighborhood spot worth checking out for decent pricing and "simple" but tasty dishes. read more
