Most pasta joints play it safe. Park Street Pasta doesn’t.
Handmade daily pasta. Organic, biodynamic wines. A vibe that’s all about quality, not ego. It’s where fine dining meets your favourite neighbourhood spot, where the service is warm, and the food is memorable without the fuss.
The outdoor space is dog-friendly and built for comfort. There’s a covered area for cooler days and an open-air space for soaking up the sun. Heaters keep things cozy, festoon lights set the mood.
Food & Wine: Seasonal, Thoughtful, Always Spot-On
At Park Street Pasta, there’s no set-in-stone menu—just damn good food that shifts with the seasons. You won’t always find the same dishes, but you can always expect bold flavours, handmade pasta, and a wine list that actually makes sense.
There’s no need to overthink your order. Share a few pastas, add a couple of small plates, and trust the kitchen to get it right. And if there’s ravioli on the menu? Get it.
Handmade Pasta, No Shortcuts, No Gimmicks
Park Street Pasta isn't playing around when it comes to their craft. The pasta here changes with the seasons, and every dish screams creativity and technique without pretension. One night, you might be twirling delicate strands of silky linguine; another, sinking your fork into pillowy, house-made gnocchi. No two visits are the same.
Gluten-intolerant? No problem. They have a gluten-free pasta option that is just as delicious.
Beyond pasta, Park Street delivers standout creations that evolve with the seasons, meaning every visit offers something exciting and fresh. Expect dishes like delicately seasoned Kingfish Sashimi with smoked-oyster mayonnaise or a crispy mozzarella-stuffed carrozza paired with spicy nduja pesto. Keep an eye out for rotating dessert highlights—especially the Pistachio Brûlée.
Prices reflect the care, quality, and creativity that goes into every dish and glass poured. It’s an investment in flavour, hospitality, and atmosphere—a place you’ll find yourself returning to again and again.
A Wine Selection to Savour
The wine selection at Park Street Pasta is anything but ordinary. The list is curated, not crammed—featuring organic and biodynamic wines from passionate producers. Expect lesser-known varietals alongside classics from Italy, France, and Australia.
The best part? The staff actually know how to recommend a wine that suits your meal and your mood. No awkward upselling, no complicated jargon—just genuine, thoughtful pairings designed to complement, not overpower, the food.
Vibe & Service: Slow Down, Settle In
Park Street Pasta isn’t about quick bites and fast turnarounds. The service can take its time, and that’s part of the charm. This isn’t the place you go when you’re in a rush—it’s the place you go to relax, sip, and savour.
Order a bottle, let the conversation flow, and enjoy the rhythm of a long, unhurried meal. The staff know their stuff, offering genuine recommendations without the usual script. It’s attentive without being overbearing, warm without being forced.
Outside, the covered and open-air terraces make it easy to lose track of time. The heaters keep things cozy, the festoon lights add a soft glow, and your dog? They’ll be just as content as you, stretched out by your feet while you pour another glass.
Park Street isn’t about flipping tables—it’s about letting you actually enjoy the experience.
