Pasta Cuore - Auckland

Dined in once and decided to do take out every time after. The seating is cramped but the pasta is extremely good, take home does not really affect quality much so would recommend.

After reading various reviews about the portion sizes, we were surprised to find that they weren't as small as others suggested. In fact, they were just right. We ordered two servings of pappardelle with lamb ragout and shared some Brussels sprouts and sourdough bread. We both felt full and very satisfied. The average price for the pasta was around $30, but it was absolutely worth it due to the freshness and deliciousness of the food. I will definitely be returning!

Probably one of the best pasta I’ve tasted in New Zealand. We got the butter and sage tortelloni, prosciutto, lemon zest tagliatelle, and the lamb ragu pappardelle and also some tigelle bread. Everything was perfect, the flavours were on spot on, not too heavy considering that amount of pasta! nothing to fault. The table setting was super cute with some Italian literature and the menus were individually hand crafted too! Would definitely come back to try the other dishes.

Authentic pasta. Simple but well executed dishes with good ingredients.
