Pasta Garage Italian Cafe

Very cool place. Lots of beautiful artwork inside, and it's even for sale! The food was incredible, and the atmosphere was very comfortable and unique.

I’ve been going to the pasta garage for years! They have the best Chicken Alfredo I have eaten out of all the Italian restaurants in Lexington!

The restaurant is always packed if that’s any indication of how delicious it is! Despite the many customers, the food always arrives quickly and the employees are friendly!

Absolutely love the homemade pasta!!! The Cacio E Pepe was amazing. Hubby enjoyed the Pasta Primavera. We will definitely be back for more.

I have had pasta all over the world, and they are at the top of the list. The gnocchi was incredible and so light. If you have the chance, this is a wonderful place to eat.

We had heard so many good things about this place that we decided to give it a try. It did not disappoint! The made in-house pasta was fabulous along with the sauce. Both dishes and salads were hearty a great from start to finish. A note is that you order at the counter and seat yourself. A buzzer notified you when each item is ready. Don’t forget the plasticware pack! There is seating outside too. Atmosphere is cool and casual. It appeared like ice cream is available in an attached area. Sure wish we had left room for the desserts! We will return!!

We were at the farmers market in Fort Thomas - approx 90 minutes from Lexington... we had no plans for dinner so I bought a lasagna and a baked ravioli and my family loved both. The quality of products seems really good. I loved the cheese as it was so smooth and plentiful...

I loved everything about the lasagna and honestly think it's my new fav.

I enjoyed the ravioli and my husband preferred it and our child loved both equally..

Really nice and interactive vendors as well

ThNks for an amazing dinner! I can't wait to try the meatballs and a handful of other items we saw....

Wow! What an excellent spot. The food is AMAZING and fresh. Great casual atmosphere. Portions are perfectly sized. Highly recommended.

Phenomenal local pasta spot that also has decent options for dessert. There's even an authentic red and white Vespa near the bathrooms they used to use for food deliveries years ago, would highly recommend even if you're gluten free!

Been itching to try this place... didn't disappoint at all! From the wine, to the appetizer, to 3 different entrees I tried. The Lasagna was my favorite, exceptional sauce and well layered. If you're looking for something lighter without a powerful red sauce with some veggies I would suggest the Pasta Primavera, delightful.

Connected to the Lexington Pasta Co, everything is fresh and made to order. Could not have asked for a better meal in Lex.

Pasta Garage is such a fun atmosphere with an open kitchen to watch your meal being prepared. A wide drink selection and market for take-home pasta, sauces, round-out the experience. And the food is FANTASTIC! Check out the Pasta Club and Pasta 101 class.

The food here is fantastic! The pasta is so fresh and delicious! We have been several times and every meal is wonderful, from the appetizers to desserts! The staff is always very friendly and helpful! One of our favorite Lexington restaurants! Highly recommend for a date night or a family outing!

Wow, seriously one of the best dishes I've had in a long time. The grilled chicken was so tender, the gnocchi was so flavorful. The atmosphere is great and I love the setup which maximizes use of an irregular space.

We brought a group of 29 people to Pasta Garage on an 8 day FFA trip. This was everyone's favorite place to eat. We come here every two years from California. This place is always great. All of our picky high school students found something that they loved. I had the lasagna and it was easily the best lasagna I have ever had. Amazing Italian food made with fresh ingredients. Large menu and fast, friendly service. We will be back!

Pasta garage has delicious fresh pasta for dine in or take home and cook your self. Their gnocchi is the best! I also highly recommend the pasta 101 class it’s such a fun and unique experience!

100% Recommend the pasta making classes. The owner of pasta garage is kind, funny, knowledgeable, and is a wonderful teacher. Experience is one of a kind. The food is wonderful, the wine is delicious. The ciabatta bread is the best I’ve ever had. Try it all, you won’t be disappointed!!!

I don’t know how else to explain how much I love this place other than to say in a single 3 day trip I went every day! Yea a little over the top but it happened by accident when in town for a conference & the lunch company who joined me each day wanted Italian.

Luckily their menu is so diverse I never at the same thing twice! I love that their noodles & sauce are all made in house fresh! I personally like making my own bowls, but in several trips over 2 stays in the Lex area in the 3 years I’ve tried som staples as well.

You can’t go wrong with much on the menu!

It’s close to UK & the Campbell House Hilton Hotel & downtown Lex. You would be missing out if you skipped it!

My sister and I are here from out of town for a couple days. We wanted Italian for dinner and this restaurant popped up on Google. The location is interesting 🤔. The ambiance is awesome!! I absolutely LOVED the music selection! I was singing more than eating😂🤣😂🤣🎶🎶! The food was good too👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼.

The atmosphere is cool, in keeping with the garage theme. It's unique. The food is very close to real Italian. Nothing crazy just good quality you can depend upon. Prices are in a sweet spot where you get really good food at a fair price. The staff is awesome, and caring. Customer satisfaction is obviously a priority for this business. I highly recommend The Pasta Garage, as an experienced business traveller.
Cheers, Joe

I was looking for a last minute valentines dinner reservation, and found this hidden gem of Lex!! I emailed them and they promptly answered, got a reservation, and they even went ahead a sat us when we arrived even though we were 30 min early. They had a beautiful set up for Valentines day, with white tablecloths, candles, music, the total package. The food was perfect. We enjoyed every bite of a 3 course meal. The special Valentines menu was amazing!! Everything was fresh, made to order, and piping hot. And the house made Gelato is soooo good
We will be regulars!
Best bruschetta I've had in years.
