Yes! Pasta Sisters is a real family business - our mom is the Chef, my Brother is the CEO, I handle the marketing, and my Sister works in the office. You will see our family regularly at either location, Culver City or Pico . Please say “hi” when you are visiting!

Yes! We are a first-generation Italian family, originally from Padua (in the north of Italy). We moved to Los Angeles in 2010 and 5 years later we start our business. Although we miss our home country, we are happy to be living the American Dream! To know more check out the "Our Story" website page.

The food at Pasta Sisters comes from traditional family recipes, some over 100 years old, that have been passed onto Chef Paola from her mother and her grandmother. All of our pasta is made in-house daily with 100% Italian flour, eggs and extra virgin olive oil. We make all of our sauces and complementary focaccia bread daily from scratch, and most of our pastries. (Except the Sfogliatella is imported from Naples!) We use the highest quality ingredients that both Italy and California have to offer so we can maintain our family cooking traditions and still offer our dishes at an affordable price.

Our staff will deliver your food and drinks to your table and they are also here to help you with seating when necessary (see below for large groups and parties).

No. For health and safety reasons we do not serve gluten-free pasta. All of our pastas are made in an open-air room which could easily be cross-contaminated by wheat flour. This decision is taken to prevent anyone with celiac disease or a severe gluten allergy from becoming ill after eating something that is labeled as “gluten-free” that has unintentionally come into contact with wheat. We do not serve gluten-free pasta, but we do offer other gluten-free menu items that are prepared in a separate area of our pasta-room. See below: -Roasted Wild Salmon (served with two sides) -All Side dishes a la carte -Caprese Plate with Buffalo Mozzarella or Burrata cheese -Bresaola Carpaccio -Prosciutto Plate - Cold Cuts Plate -Butter Lettuce Salad (+ Grilled Chicken) -Arugula Salad (+ Grilled Chicken) -Panna Cotta with strawberry puree - Gelato -Sorbet NOTE: If you or anyone in your group has celiac disease or a severe gluten allergy, Pasta Sisters is a potentially harmful environment for their health, as we cannot fully guarantee that the food has not been in contact with wheat flour.

Yes! We have two types of pasta that are vegan: homemade Gnocchi (potatoes and flour) and the Penne (dry pasta, no eggs). Both options fit perfectly with our Tomato & Basil sauce (please request “no dairy” with the Cashier) or the Arrabbiata sauce (vegan). All other sauces contain ingredients that are not vegan friendly. We can also serve our signature salads without the cheese. Please let our Cashier know of any dietary restrictions or food allergies when you are placing your order so we can take all the necessary precautions when preparing your food.

Yes / No. The Pasta Sisters concept is to build your own dish: 1) choose a house-made sauce and 2) choose a house-made pasta. Because we firmly believe in the traditions of our family recipes and the quality of our ingredients, we do not combine any of our sauces. You can add a ball of fresh Burrata cheese on top of select dishes (Tomato & Basil, Arrabbiata, Pesto and Bolognese), and you can order a side of Grilled Chicken (it will not be tossed in). In very few scenarios, we can exclude certain ingredients in our dishes due to dietary restrictions or food allergies. Please communicate any dietary restrictions with our Cashiers and we will do our best to accommodate. For all other circumstances, no substitutions or modifications are allowed.

No. We do not serve sauce on the side of any of our dishes. Chef Paola, owner and Mama of Pasta Sisters, works very hard to create the perfect balance between ingredients and flavors and for this reason, we only serve the dishes as they are prepared. We believe that if you trust our family traditional recipes you will enjoy them as much as we do!

To know more check out our "Sauces" website page.

Carbonara, is a sauce that is meant to be eaten right away - it does not hold its texture or temperature well over time, and should be consumed very quickly after preparation. To ensure the quality of the dish at our standard and make sure it stays creamy and hot, we have decided not to offer this dish for carryout.

Our gnocchi consists of flour and potato, whereas our other homemade pastas (spaghetti, tagliatelle, pappardelle) consist of flour and egg. To know more check out the "Our Food" website page
