Only the Best
Fresh Ingredients, Tasty Amazing Meals
Scolapasta is a family owned farm to table Italian bistro that marries old world Italian cooking traditions with modern flare. We want to share some of our age old family traditions with your family. Our traditions date back to a time where all of the ingredients for a meal came from a family’s own backyard or fresh from the local market. A time where everything was grown by farmers with their own hands and hard work; A time where everything was fresh and organic.
